[Can you dig it?]

Jealous of what? I'm a grown ass man. I don't get upset over high school football. I put the letterman up a long time ago. Maybe you should as well. This is a discussion board. Its here for.....wait for it.....discussion.
I don't care where they get there kids from. Im not accusing you of recruiting or anything like that. Im asking a simple question as to why Highlands get preferential treatment when it comes to playing in the classes they so choose. Highlands should be playing in 3A or 4A, wherever there number put them. The only waivers should be for schools that have to travel hours to get to a district game. That would not be the case with Highlands. Don't say every team has the opportunity to play up so its fair because nobody else wants to.
I didn't hear any complaining from Highlands when they were stuck in the correct class over the last 4 years, but it became apparent with Bowling Green having the teams they had, Highlands wouldn't have wanted to play up anyways.

It all connects.
Its simple. I don't care if you have 30 boys or 300, play in the class you are suppose to play in. If you get the urge to play up, then play up to 6A, don't be scared.

Something that's missing from this discussion is that Highlands goes where CovCath goes. CovCath is now in the 5A class based on student population, so Highlands takes the opportunity to play up so that they can remain in the same district. If they were to stick with 4A they'd be in a district with Mason County, Scott, Bourbon County, Harrison County and Holmes. If they stayed in 3A where they actually fall from a size standpoint they'd be in with Fleming County, Lewis County, Pendleton County and Russell. Not really much in the way of competition there with all due respect. CovCath is the established rival and one of the few teams that occasionally gives Highlands a game, so they stick together.
