I agree that there is not a need for a class system at this point. The reason is that no program has dominated the basketball scene in Kentucky. I also understand that this is a hypothetical question. However, I would bet that the sentiment would change very quickly if a private school decides to pour the resources into its' basketball program and begins to consistently win state championships.

I honestly think there would still be upsets. There are a lot of people that go to the Sweet Sixteen every year and root for "the little guys". The noise that Rupp puts out can be very intimidating to any high schooler. Last year was an exception. Trinity was a real good team, think maybe the talent level in the rest of the state was somewhat down. IMO Last year's tourney was the worst I've ever been to.
