LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) - There will be six high school state championship football games in Kentucky next year instead of four under a plan passed Monday by the Kentucky High School Athletic Association.
The vote by the association's Board of Control marks the state's biggest football realignment in about 30 years.
However, a committee of the board voted to consider to recount enrollment numbers in two years. The original plan had called for a recount in four years.
Some schools could be switched to different divisions, depending on their enrollment figures.

I think this new alignment will be good for High School football it may take everyone time to adjust. I also like the idea of 5 team districts it will give schools a chance to play new opponents and start or renew old rivalries

lpd826 Wrote:it will be great...before the way it was their was just to large of a difference between a small 3A school and a Large 4A school. KY has grown in size of population so it was something well over due.....
I have to disagree with that statement. Our population doesn't constitute 6 classes of football. Ohio only has 6 classes of football with a statewide population of about 11.44 million. Kentucky only has a population of around 4.1 million. Each class will only have about 40 teams. That means that 25% of the state will be ranked in "The Top Ten" when split between their respective divisions.

Good point!! Do you know the the population of Ohio was when they switched to 6 classes? Maybe it was done with the future in mind?

i really like the change
08-29-2006, 04:22 PM
there is good and bad about this new class scheme the 4A is where the change was needed and thats where most of it happened eventhough Lynn Camp got screwed on travel time but there is no reason we shouldn't win the district every year now i think its a great alternative to the public private split

The people making the decisions are not in the positions they are in because they are ignorant. There is a reason for this and I am sure they did what is best in their educated opinions.

I'm excited to see this change
09-03-2006, 02:16 AM
i think this change will mess up the rivalrys and it is a very bad idea... it will extende the amount of distances people will have to travel.... and also it will make some teams be outclassed in the teams they have to play.... i am gonne hate this change
