Again, that is enrollment substance. Not enrollment size.

 

Substance is part of size in my opinion.....a small part..

 

Here is how I see it.

 

1. Community Support (Boosters, Feeder Program etc..)

2. Coaching

3. Tradition (Generations of Success)

4. Talent

5. Enrollment (Pool of Kids to Choose From)

And look at your quote. "If trinity and highlands were the same enrollment you'd "Bet" that highlands would be better"

 

You are making my point for me. If size didn't matter, why aren't you better then Trinity now. SMH.

 

Because Highlands is already better than 99.9% of the high schools in the state. If you increase their substance they'll get better. Having them and Trinity in the same city will increase the enrollment substance of both schools. Not the size. My argument is about size. Yours is about substance. That's two different things.

So why does Danville have 10 state championships and Boyle has 7? Size doesn't matter.

Go play Trinity and see if size matters...lol

It matters to beat the top tier 6a or Ohio DI schools..It doesn't matter much to compete in your own size class. Except for maybe 6a..

Raider. Stop bringing points and valid arguments to the table. It's hard for some to understand

Bryan Station (6-4)

Pleasure Ridge Park (10-0)

Lafayette (7-3)

Henderson County(8-2)

Paul Laurence Dunbar ((3-7)

Eastern (8-2)

Henry Clay (4-6)

Scott County (9-1)

Trinity (Louisville) (9-1)

St. Xavier (6-4)

 

A total record of 70-30 for the 10 largest schools

 

Conversely the lowest 10 enrollment schools in 6A are 38-62.....

 

I think you have to eliminate T and X from this analysis because they have stronger factors than enrollment size that factor into their success. Potentially, every Catholic High age athlete in metropolitan Louisville is included in their enrollment pool.

 

And I agree with PPride that once you get past the first 3 6A programs, many schools from 1A - 5A could compete and even dominate this class.

Danville and Boyle County have taken on all comers from any class and been successful. Size doesn't matter. Shoot, Highlands is smaller than Boyle and Highlands is 4-2 against Boyle and Danville is smaller than Highlands and is 1-1 against Highlands. Size doesn't matter.

What's hard for you to understand is the difference between size and substance. How come Lexington public schools aren't better than surrounding SMALLER public schools?

But yet those same Lexington schools destroy all the teams you mention in most other sports. Basketball, track, baseball. Wonder why???

Trinity is a better program than Boyle and BG. Their success against both BG and Boyle would have nothing to do with their enrollment size.

 

What's hard for you to understand is the difference between size and substance. How come Lexington public schools aren't better than surrounding SMALLER public schools?

 

And I provided you numbers of the largest enrollment schools against the lowest. We saw a dynamic difference in records. Same

Wit every single class. Your argument is flawed. Size matters. As does substance. As does rules to abide by.

And yet you continue to aim your flawed arguments at me. Yet countless folks continue to tell you the same. Face it. Your wrong.
