BR people are probably pissed, but face it: EBR football is largely putrid and so is Livingston. Ascension has some fantastic players, but the teams underachieve. It's sad to me that most of the good teams to come out of the area are 3A and 2A private schools. A metro area of 800k needs to pick select teams to dominate towns of 5k-8k people.


might wanna look back at LOI signees from these metro areas again....

Baton Rouge produces players more than teams.

Catholic has a good quarterfinal type program most years. Zachary, Central, Scotlandville and Denham have good programs, but usually you can count on them being done by Thanksgiving.

And don't get me started on Dutchtown.

And, if not for Lutcher being in the district, this would probably be the weakest 4A district in the state. Maybe Plaquemine will improve it, but EBR is so anti-athletics with their higher academic requirements and coaching staff limits, they may never win another state title from the public schools here. Maybe Zachary and Central or if Woodlawn breaks off into an ISD.

I'm afraid Zachary and Central won't grow enough to grow significantly as schools. If you work in south BR, that's a hell of a commute to go out there. Limits the people who will have motivation to move out there and grow those school districts.
