I played for a good D2-AA school, the D2-AAA teams or the Super 7 would destroy teams like Notre Dame, BCS would probably beat Ryan and that might be it...so I don't know if we could throw them in to D2-AAA knowing they would get killed...as far as 1-A goes...
I have played some of those 1A power houses, I have played Ezell and USJ in the four years I played football...USJ beat us like 25-7 and just outplayed us with solid solid players, it wasn't athletes, it was just solid players...that is why I think that coaching in privates is very good for the most part (I'm not saying 1a public school coaches arent good, but I will say in the 4 years I played football, we never lost to one 1A public school EVER and we played probably 4 or 5 a year) Now when I played Ezell They were down right horrible, and had nothing going for them, including coaching...there transformation is due to athletes that they have recruited, I guess what I am saying is...athletically Ezell, CPA, USJ are probably all too good to play in 1A and should move to D2-AA (I think they would beat the majority of the D2-AA schools, but they would lose to the D2-AAA schools badly)...it's kinda sad, if you move those small private schools like lighthouse christian to D2-A they get murdered, if you move Notre Dame and BCS, they will get pretty much destroyed... there is no common ground for them...I am for a split because then maybe there will be less state champions.
