Bigger issue, but this once again shows a huge disparity btw select and nonselect. Forcing forfeits as penalties has a huge impact on a nonselect school’s playoff chances, but for a select school, no amount of forfeits will keep them out of the playoffs.


Sure but that isn’t the fault of the selects. They almost unanimously opposed the segregation.

Plus, the sanctions against BM and De La Salle are nonsense. The schools had been interpreting an ambiguous rule the same way for three decades and the LHSAA randomly decides to interpret it another way on a whim.

Agree but just shows how ridiculous the split is. Select schools should be split into 2 divisions if they’re not combined w nonselect. Makes no sense that everyone makes the playoffs and a third of the teams get byes and go straight to quarter finals. Making it to state used to be meaningful. A playoff bracket w 12 teams is ridiculous.

Just curious, what was the gpa rule? Probably good for all schools to know, since I’m sure others are misinterpreting it as well.

So the three non-select schools, why were they sanctioned? I thought all the schools had the same academic issue, but I must have misread.

I have no idea what this rule is. But if you know they might interpret a rule a certain way even though it may not be enforced or applied all the time. Why would you not work within the way they interpret it in order to avoid the possibility of it effecting you? What rule is this? Because the way you are saying this makes me think it is something right at the edge of the rules and the schools are using it to gain advantage knowing it isn't always enforced.
