Before the recent alignment Grant played with Anderson, South Oldham and Oldham. Montgomery is close to Harrison Co which was with Highlands and Cov. cath before I agree Fern Creek should be with Bullitt instead of Iroquois. Nelson will be the trick. Where do they go for travel purpose I would think with Bullitts

He probably just didnt know the landscape of Jefferson County.

 

Fern Creek will go with the Bullitt County schools.

 

Also, Nelson County will go with the Bullitt County schools as well. Their reasoning for playing up was the geographic logisitcs for travel, and their reasoning was bc of the Bullitt County schools all being within a 20-30 minute drive from them.

 

It will look like this.

 

D1: Same

D2: Barren County, BG, Grayson County, Greenwood

D3: Atherton, Doss, Fairdale, Southern, Iroquois

D4: Bullitt Central, Bullitt East, North Bullitt, Fern Creek, Nelson County

D5: Probably the same

D6: Probably the same

D7: Probably the same, with the addition of Southwestern (same district it is now)

D8: Probably the same, minus Southwestern.

 

You could see southern or fairdale with bullitt Co. They are already together in basketball and baseball right?

KHSAA has ruined any type of rivalries in football. Look at basketball, true rivalries exist there still. How can you have a rivalry with a school that is over 2 hours away in your district. Totally ludicrous. I'd rather see 3 or 4 classes ranked on size & tradition. Or just let you have open scheduling and seed the teams into a post season tournament in 4 classes. Match basketball, baseball and football schedules. That way you could form true rivalries.

The biggest surprise to me is the apparent lack of communication between schools before making their moves.
