KHSAA Football Alignment for 2011-2014 announced

[sports fan]

No they don't. Male is the furthest southwest of the three teams.

 

Male is further Southwest than Butler & PRP??? Might want to check the map again. Male belongs with PRP & Butler more than Seneca does.

How many public schools do you know of that can offer financial assistance/tuition to out of district student athletes?

 

How many student athletes do St. X/Trinity have that transfered in from other school districts?

 

Bottom line is that public schools do not compete on a LEVEL playing field with private schools!!!

 

Trinity's tuition is around $10,000 / year. At the most, you can qualify for half assistance. Now, I ask you, which is more, $5,000 / year, or free? Don't worry, I'll wait.

What happens when Nelson splits?

 

I've been trying to figure that one out as well. I have heard a few things, but not really anything firm.

[RockPride]

Public. I believe Central is as well.

 

Yeah, I know.

[Ram]

HOW?????

 

It has to be centrally located. No, I'm not against it being in Bowling Green, or Louisville, but the Sweet 16 is in the right location. The Football finals have to be, as close to the center of the state as possible. Two games per day, not three. Three is to many for most fans to sit though. Have two and let the fans take the evening off and have fun. More of a mini vacation like many fans do during the Sweet 16. They let school out for the Sweet 16, let it out for the football finals on Friday.

 

That's a start.

OK, I was confused at what you were saying. I am going to love getting the additional money from us playing X in the playoffs, rather than the state getting it. BUT, the realignment wasn't down geographically. I would like to hear, how it was done.

I am fine with it in Lexington, but not until they get field turf.

[Ram]

Then the change is % playoffs teams is not related to recent alignment changes but to new schools!

 

OK, let me explain: I was being facetious. A member stated that only 20% did not made the playoffs, I stated, in a way, that that was much better then the old number of 18%. But in reality, there is little difference in 18% and 20%. See, isn't that funny.

[Clyde]

Could someone please help me understand the placement of Simon Kenton and Paul Laurence Dunbar???????????

 

Where else would you put them? The state has decided that there are 8 4-team districts. It's the only place they could go.

[Ram]

I am fine with it in Lexington, but not until they get field turf.

 

I agree on both points. I'm really not saying it should be in this venue, or that venue, just that it has to be centrally located.

[Colonels_Wear_Blue]

Yeah, I know.

 

Okay...I was kind of figuring you did, but I'm left scratching my head as to what your point was.

[Oxnard]

As much as the public schools talk about our facility advantages, there are public schools who already have indoor football facilities.

[Clyde]

Should I assume that there will be no statement from the KHSAA as to how they came up with the alignment?

[Ram]

Should I assume that there will be no statement from the KHSAA as to how they came up with the alignment?

 

You should assume such.

I heard it was something scientific like out of hat or dartboard...but that is just rumor!
