Christian Brothers, MUS latest TSSAA football programs to move to independent schedule
MUS and Christian Brothers make joint announcement about its TSSAA football futures.
Christian Brothers and Memphis University School have announced they will move their high school football programs to an independent TSSAA schedule for the 2027 and 2028 seasons. This decision will leave both teams ineligible for the TSSAA playoffs in the next two years. The schools will create their own 10-game schedule, including a bowl game, for the 2027-2029 school years.
The move comes as both schools seek to focus on the development of their student-athletes and the integrity of the game, rather than solely on winning games. This marks the third and fourth DII-AAA schools in the Nashville area to make the switch to an independent schedule, joining Christ Presbyterian Academy and Father Ryan.
