TSSAA banned both of them instead. Right decision?


Sounds like they have some issues with their bracket process. Just like in the nfl with the draft, if you incentivize a team to lose, then you can't blame them for doing it.

Exactly. Rational actors responding to the incentives provided to them.

They would have to face Blackman at some point anyway. Pretty pathetic neither team would just face them early on in their bracket just so they would have the chance to say we lost to Blackman in the Championship. Both coaches should definitely be fired.
