that is one thing that gets brought up. also why would highlands want to drop down in classes? they wouldnt benefit from it on the national scene. sure they "theoretically" would have an easier time winning state championships, but i would think they are just as concerned with their national image as well. if anything i think they would like to move up so they can play trinity and st. x to prove they are the best in the state.

if i was them i would not want to see dave cantralls ratings come out next year with st. x and trinity ranked above them. i think they clearly proved they were the class of the state and they get hosed in that rankings. i would be out to prove something.

I'm not to sure Highlands would have an easier time in 4A. They would have to contend with Lexington Catholic, Boyle and Bell County just on the East side of the bracket. Currently in 5A Johnson Central has been their biggest threat and Boyle and Bell beat them pretty easily last year.
