Schools located in Jefferson County have won 28 playoff games so far this year. Congratulations Jefferson county! The NKY conglomerate of however many counties has won 23.

With the population doubled than NKY I take it there are 10 Jefferson County teams in the semis then?

Look at Beechwood's enrollment, then look at a CPS public school. 10:1 may be a bit much, I'd be happy to cut it to 2:1 if that will make you feel better. Point is that OH schools are much larger. I'm sure that if you're going to try and argue otherwise you will quote a private school as an example, but that's an apple to an orange kind of thing. NKY high schools are dwarfs in comparison. Most high schools over there look like college campus's, and the population base is much higher as well. NKY school districts create new schools when enrollment approaches 1600. Oh schools just build another building.

 

On the bolded, doesn't make me feel any better, I just wanted a closer comparison if we're going to throw out numbers. 2:1 is closer to accurate, like five times closer, than 10:1 so I can live with that. Comparing apples to apples, it's not 2:1 but it's close enough that I can live with it.

 

Comparing Beechwood and CPS schools isn't apples to apples, and still not 10:1. Poor comparison.

 

Your enrollment point is valid to a degree however. The Lakota's of the world are certainly bigger than any school in NKY, and I agree the numbers may help. Of course, Lexington has schools bigger than our 6A schools, and it doesn't seem to work out too well for them. So I think there's more to it than just enrollment.

 

As far as an emphasis on athletics in Ohio v NKY, I'm not buying that. Many NKY schools have better facilities than many like sized Ohio schools, and NKY kids have every opportunity to play sports from the time they start losing baby teeth.

All this tells me is there are FAR TOO MANY public schools in the northern Kentucky area.:popcorn:

My argument. Is that Jefferson has 2x the population as all of NKY. This is why they are tops if football. Not at every level. Biggest county in ky by FAR!!!

What it tells me is NKY has the best football from top to bottom in the state this year.

I agree. NKY as a whole has came a long way.
