Going back to 4 classes would be good and each class would have about 90 schools. B and C could be absorbed into A. I can at least feel sorry for C, but why does B have it's own class again when they have the same size as A? If anything that should be an advantage for them over the other schools in the sports they do sponsor because they can prepare longer.

Texas has about 125 schools per state champion if you are looking for a reference point. Another one is about 30 in Alabama

Edit: Alabama is probably more like 50 but they have only 32 schools in their highest class. Compare that with Arkansas that actually has I think 14 in their highest class!

This is Louisiana we are speaking about here.

Ain't no way the big money at schools like Neville and West Monroe and others like them with deep pockets will EVER allow Curtis, Evangel, University, DeLaSalle, St Pauls, St Augs back into the fray. Ain't happening. No fricking way in hell.

The LHSAA is an organization to the highest bidder and largest wallet.

when the enrollments come out for reclassification, you can bet ill find out how many students each classification has in 5A school equivalents... Using the 4A/5A cutoff, 5A will have more 5A school equivalents than they have schools, bc they are all bigger than the cutoff for the most part. Class C will be the equivalent of 4 or 5 5A schools. I think our small schools are overrepresented at the various state events.
