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 decided to participate in an independent TSSAA football schedule for the 2027 and 2028 seasons, causing them to enter Division II-AAA and disqualify them from the playoffs. Both schools announced this decision jointly. Christian Brothers will focus on the character development of their student-athletes rather than their win-loss record.
MUS Headmaster Pete Sanders emphasized that relational coaching is more impactful than transactional. The schools will create a 10-game schedule, including a bowl game, for the 2027-2029 seasons. Christian Brothers has not reached a state championship game since 2005, while MUS has won five state titles since 1985.
