Classification Change 2020

Think about the money they would make IF they cut it down to 3 public classes and 2 private classes.  Attendance is declining year over year because of this farce of a playoff system.  Currently, approximately 2/3 of public schools get in!!!  With 3 classes there would be 96 slots total with ~300 schools vying to get in.  That would leave nearly 100 schools with winning records out, every year.  That would leave the door open for 50 quality bowl games, that the T$$AA could get a cut of.  I would wager a lot of money that a lot more people would come out to see some locally flavored bowl with two 7 win teams instead of seeing a 2 or 3 win team getting hammered by the 1 seed in another region.  This year also made the case, at least in 5A to seed the tournament.  It was a travesty to watch Powell, West, and South Doyle sitting at home, when all 3 would have beaten Summit in much the same way that Central did.

I know the bigger schools doesn't care about 1A but there needs to be a strict cutoff at 1A. No need for a school with 100 students to play schools with 450 students. Cut off needs to be 350 to 375. Just don't take so many teams in the 1A playoffs. You could take the remaining schools and divide them out even and have 5 public classes. 1A always gets the shaft when it comes to classification.

    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
    • What is the hold up here? I have not heard anything in weeks. Are they waiting for the right person or is something else going on?
    • Per usual, we'll be hard to beat in the regular season, I'm sure. It's the post season that I'm more worried about, specifically the coaches. Maybe they'll be able to make some adjustments that will keep the momentum in our favor. How's Grays recovery coming along?
    • Something don’t add up here a college coach is not going to turn away a good player they need just because they didn’t get along with their high school coach 
    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
