Unfortunately he might not have any impact on the vote coming up. I wonder how long it would take the private schools to form their own league if the split goes for all sports?

To not interfere with football game contracts, i'd say 2017 if it does happen...

Only non district games have been agreed upon, district schedules will not be set until after reclassification meetings.


If split does come, most of the agreed upon games already set would stay scheduled and be played...


And yes the thought/fear of a split is slowig this down.

Keep in mind thtere are around a dozen smaller privates in la already playing in MS private association- who would lprobably like very much to play closer to home.

I look for 4a and 5a to get back together....w Curtis going back down to 2a or 3a

Which of course the 3a and 2a folks will want to remain separate

When I first glanced at the article's title, I thought they had named Robin Fambrough as the new executive director. I was thinking WTF

Yea, I guess 1 year of being humbled by actual competition in the playoffs was enough for those guys.

Owl, do you know how the attendance compared for the Jesuit-JC game with Acadiana-Destrehan?

Any thoughts on the 5A cut off level?

Over/Under 1100

That won't happen. These schools are in their own league for several reasons.

Plus, these little schools would get murderized by say, a Brother Martin, a Oua Christian, A Calvary Baptist... Imagine a school with 180 lb OL-men going up against a John Curtis, an Evangel...

They would never agree to it.

OCS would get murderized by the other privates you just mentioned.

Nobody has that big of a bankroll. I think the split for football only and combining 4a and 5a together would keep the league the way it is, but an all split sport would guarantee the split.

Tey could certainly compete with the run of the mill 1a and 2a privates

There is a pretty wide chasm between 5a privates and the smaller pivots right now.....epsecially in regard to JC

I would bet people would vote on an easier path to state over the small chance to play in the dome if it came down to it.
