The only thing I know about this are the few Moscona rants I've caught, but basically they are blowing up high school football in Louisiana because a handful of private schools are taking advantage of the system? Is this just mass grass roots stupidity or is someone actually benefiting from and manipulating the situation to split the LHSAA?

You've read the hype, not the truth. Go look at all the schools caught up in recruiting violations that made the news this year. West Monroe, Helen Cox, etc. All public schools. And don't even get me started on Orleans Parish public schools. Karr is the biggest recruiter in the state.

A handful of private schools are taking advantage of the system more efficiently than public schools are taking advantage of the system.

To be honest with you it's not about public vs private. It's about women principals that have no business having a voice in football meetings.

They're blowing up the system because a few public schools like Winnfield got butthurt that they were stuck in the same classification as John Curtis and Evangel, meaning the chances of winning a title were almost non-existant.
This is an outgrowth from long-term issues involving mainly Curtis and Evangel, who have been shuffled from classification to classification because no one wants to play them.
The issue has opened a whole barrel of additional issues.
One major one I feel needs to be addressed is letting non-football schools vote on issues that deal solely with football. Specifically, there are a lot of allegations that Class B and Class C schools were leaned on hard to vote for this proposal under threat of having their classes abolished.

Catholic league apologist. I also think he (and others)are really overvaluing the "Catholic league games fill the stands" argument.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Parents should have the choice to send their kids to public school, or private school. If they want them to compete in athletics, then they have to send them to the nearest geographical private school their child is eligible to attend. I mean, its about "education", right? You live in Mandeville and want you kid to go to John Curtis, move to River Ridge. You'll pass at least 10 other perfectly acceptable academic institutions on your way, including some without ever getting off the north shore.
Problem solved.
