River Rat: Class split is not the answer by Peter W. Zubaty

This is not why it was done? I see no other reason?

 

This was about some schools who couldn't beat other schools and wanted a way around it.

This was started by the coaches long before Prop 20. I can see where you think giving more kids a chance is a bad thing. I guess you were all for Prop 20 that would likely have ended athletics at Holy Cross if passed...

You seriously don't see why? :confused: I mean, I'm against it and I see it. Life ain't fair and I don't believe everyone should get a title. I know that the system we have ain't right. I know that the system we will get will be better as far as the size discrepency, but bottom line. I don't care. I'm ok with it the way it is. But at the same time, if it is changed, I can see why it is being changed and not think it's something else. There is a very valid reason why this is being done.... and once again, I don't care. I just want to watch the boys, and enjoy the game. Contrary to your "some schools who couldn't beat other schools and wanted a way around it" point of view, I prefer to think otherwise. I prefer to think that when you gather an entire states coaching ranks together, that the end result will be interest of the kids.

A sane voice. Thanks for disagreeing but having the ability to see the other side.

 

And to the person who said Kentucky was a SMALL state. KY is 25th out of 50 in population. So we're really average. And most of the other states in near population play in MORE than 4 classes. Only 4 states have 4 classes or less.

Quite crying and accept change. More classes, more exposure. Those that say " Colleges will find the good athletes no matter where they play " are narrow minded. There is D-1, D-2, D-3, and N.A.I.A. You has been's might have had a chance to play at the next level had you all had a platform. Now you work for a living and never had the chance to play at the next level. Quite wollering in your misery and accept a change that might benifit your own kids.

Ended athletics at HC? I think there is plenty of talent at HC to last long after Lloyd would show anything.

 

 

Honestly the ruling is a joke period. Its about giving kids an easy oppurtunity to win. I'm all for being fair, but this ruling is a joke. Kids need to earn a state title. Football has now put itself on the same level as the Slow pitch softball tournament in my mind. How can the amount of teams in each class really be considered a state title. Ohio has what like 500 schools, and six classes? This is a joke to me. By giving kids a chance do you mean giving them in easy ride to a title?

Were the 25th state, but trying to have the same amount of classes, as a state what 3 or 4 times our size? Being middle of the pack does not mean we should match the states in the top 10.

I'm not crying it doesn't make it any harder for the school i root for, I just think it ruins competition for a title. I predict with Beechwood out of the picture you might see an HC title soon.

You need to research a little more....... There is another thread that has the information. What KY is doing is more the norm, then the exception.

By your logic, every Beechwood title is a sham because it wasn't in a 3 class system. And HC winning a title in the new 2A? :lol:
