re: Bonine- the 2013 LHSAA split wasn't passed properly... OVERTURNED

Nobody has ever said it is in the privates best interest. However, it is a guarantee the privates can "afford" the split if they had to. On the other hand, can the publics afford the split? IMHO they cant. Can I prove it? Of course I cant. But when the privates threatened to leave the Publics when the full sport split was mentioned, the Publics wiped that idea off the table with the quickness

Well, if it's not in their best interest, why in the world would they do it?

Question for anyone: What is the benefits to the private schools to form their own association? There may well be one but if so I'm missing it. If a playoff split is bad, wouldn't a total split be worse?

An all sport split would be pretty bad for everybody I think. My son played HS soccer for 4 years and I think the sport would have a hard time surviving with a split. Probably the same for lot of smaller sports. Of course the private schools tend to dominate in a lot of these sports too. But I think it can' be avoided. Both sides truly do need each other in those sports.
