I noticed Bonine did that but I don't think it changes anything. Most public schools have dug their heels in on this.

People do not understand financially how these revenues work and the interests involved. Yes the LHSAA makes money but the membership by in large does not care about the money made by the association. They care about the money made by their schools. The more playoff games there are the more money that is made. So let's say for the sake of argument there was 100 (making that number up) playoff games. That was 100 schools that were making money. Now with more brackets there is 150 (once again making that number up) playoff games. Now 150 schools are making money off of those games. The playoff games are the money makers for schools because those are outside the budgets. And for a lot of schools were not talking very much money but still the principals care about that than however much the hell the LHSAA is making.

my solution to keep the number of playoff games the same or raise them is to have 7 32 team brackets

you can either have 7 classes (about 43 teams each), or 6 classes (50 teams each) and an "open" bracket

case in point how did the principals keep Tommy Henry around when he was chomping cigars?
