What is everyone opinion about a 4 team playoff to get the top 2 teams from each division a chance to compete for the championship ?

You might as well have a freshman prom too while your at it.

I would be for it if the Metro Louisville champion would be invited. Actually, there is no formal freshmen league in Louisville. No playoffs either:confused: I think it's great that NKY has a playoff system, gives the kids some experience at what the playoffs are about. At St.X, the freshmen have been finished for a week now, while the varsity may play into December. It's like, "thanks for coming out, but please get off the field so the varsity can get ready for a state title run." That's not a criticism of X, it's just a product of the fact there is no playoffs for freshmen in Jefferson County.

 

Based on everything I've heard and read on BGP this year, I think the 4 best freshman teams to invite to a state playoff this year would be Simon Kenton, Boyle County (who may have went undefeated, including a victory over Trinity), St.X (only loss to Moeller, victories over Trinity, Manual, Male and Lex Cath) and Lex Cath (who seemed to improve after an early loss to X, beating Trinity and also defeating either Elder or Colerain in a close game.

Thats a great idea ! Only problem i see with this where could you play this and school districts wanting to pay for travel .

I'd say there is no need for it. One more week is a)too long and b)causes b-ball players to get to practice late.

How about a random draw as to who hosts. The host school then gives the gate and portion of concessions to the 3 schools that travel (what's it cost to gas up a bus?). I know it would still be a burden on the player families who travel, but they might as well get used to factoring the travel costs into the family budget for next year.

I was told that this is the way it was up until a few years ago.

I'd say there is no need for it. One more week is a)too long and b)causes b-ball players to get to practice late.

 

I understand what you are saying , but football to alot of these players are just as important as b-ball is ,so a) they work just as hard as the varsity does all winter and summer and deserve to be rewarded with a playoff. b) basketball can wait another week dont think this is going to make or break a team.

Why not ? SOUNDS LIKE THAT WOULD REALLY BE ALOT OF FUN FOR FRESHMAN:dancingpa

Not a chance, no sense in discussing this one during the season.
