Burton?

[Jason]

I never did hear anything but did the Cumberland decide to let Norton join their district?

From what I've heard the principals took a vote to see if it was worthy of a vote and that motion failed miserably.

If it is football they are worried about they may be able to go Independent in football next year and stay in the LPD for the other sports.

LMFFAO!!! You know they don't want Burton in their district. Burton would rule them. But in the end it might soften Burton up some, as well. No sense in going to a weak district.

They would have to move someone out of the district because theres no reason for them to have 8 teams in the district at this time. If they could get Ervinton to go to the BDD, I could see the rest of the CD teams maybe excepting them.

Burton was having a hard time picking up games for Pound and Appalachia where they were suppose to be closing. Now that they "Aren't" I don't think they are trying to leave the district.

Burton Finally got their Football schedule filled out after Appy and Pound was told to make schedules.

Not sure if they are even still considering leaving the LPD as much as getting ready for LPD being disolved won't stay around with 4 schools and Clintwood only has 2 seasons left before they are consolidated... etc etc

BDD only has 4 in their district playing football. Besides I heard Lee High might make the move to the LPD as well as Thomas Walker. I know there is rumor that Gate City would move back to the LPD but I know the powers that be at Gate City said they would never go back. It will be very interesting to see what does happen though.

I had heard that with WC and DC consoladation and picking up Lee into the LPD Burton did not want to be the small school in a BID district.

This in NOT a knock against Burton it would be tough to compeat in a district like that year in and year out.

Also hard to believe the LPD and CMD are that high in the rankings. Is this football only or as a whole? As a whole some of the Region C districts are very good.

[heneedsa]

It is for football only. Dogwood District is number one, and Clinch Mountain is fourth instead of third. (Three Rivers is third) . The research kinda blew me away too, I didn't think CMD would be that high.
