To be honest, I think state associations will be a thing of the past within the next few decades anyway, except for public schools. I look at schools like Eastern Christian Academy starting a new trend, and can see regional, perhaps even national based associations which will draw a lot of attention and money. Look at the NCAA conferences scrambling to take over whole regions and the money it brings with it. How long do you think it will take to trickle to high schools? If you are worried about private schools having an advantage now, wait till high school games are routinely nationally televised and watching Evangel, Curtis, Rummel, and Calvary each week on ESPN 3 will be normal. Those schools will certainly have the advantage because the state association wasn't willing to do what it needed to do to keep itself together.

Rummell has one state title and Calvary none, let's not put them at elite status yet......
The problem is that the lhsaa has not evenly enforced rules and meted out punishment. Easily gets redirected by principals worried only about their parochial interests....and they don't have the resource or power to investigate the most egregious of offenses...
A few years back they changed the hold back rule- all parents did was just start holding back earlier....
If mr X is paying tuition formula y tom go to school z there is now way the lhsaa can dig deepmenough to prove it...
They have rules but can't enforce them

the national-type leagues won't really work... putting football teams on planes is expensive when you charge $10 a game, 500 people show up, few or none of the players actually pay tuition, the school is class 1A sized without the football players, and people aren't watching anyway
that being said, John Curtis could maybe make it work, but no one else would and they get all the best players anyway, so what else would change?
