Frozenbird... I agree about the money and resources being the limiting factors. Not everybody can have a "blank check" when it comes to athletics.

But there is NO WAY anybody can tell me that with all of the schools in the L-Ville/NKY area... (Louisville, E-Town, Covington, Newport, LaGrange, Bullitt Co.) can't make their way East every now and then.

They would only do it if the EKY schools came to them in return! Trust me, I'm from NKY and there are no schools reaching out to us to play baseball, thus I can assume that the same can be said for other sports, especially a sport that travels two busloads like a football team would. I'm involved in scheduling, we travel to Louisville and Lexington every year, but in turn, those teams come here the following year.

Here is my final comment on this subject, and a today for you: Open dates are published! It is common practice to post "We have an opening on XX/XX/XXXX date. Any school in the state has access to those dates and locations. If you want schools to play teams from other areas in the state, then tell your school that you want them to go to these areas. Trust me, there are opportunities to play these schools in other areas, so this perception by the general fan who does not know how it works is way off base! You want to play a team from Louisville, well there are postings for openings! Press your school to go to one of those areas! When we post openings, its schools in our area, Lexington and Louisville that responds to us!

This "poor pitiful me, nobody will play us" is not factual!
