Not gonna happen boys. Numbers were crunched....not possible. Look now for select schools to leverage for control over the select sector under the umbrella of the LHSAA

Can you explain what you mean? How do they intend to remain in the LHSAA, but get control of the select side? Remember, as it stands now ALL members vote on EVERYTHING.

They will never, NEVER, EVER get control over anything in this organization as it exists today. I do not believe this rumor and will dig to see if it is possibly true, but my information so far says different. Now, the Arch Diocese may not make a statement but I doubt that it is dead. But if it is DOA, then private schools should shut up and take it as it is dished out to them and start adjusting their budgets because the goal is to shut them down completely. Not just to minimize their athletic influence in the state closing of the doors completely. It is all about Public school enrollment dollars.

Almost like a total split under the LHSAA umbrella. I could see the public schools agreeing to let the privates do what they want with their playoffs. If they want to reduce it down to two or three, have it the same weekend as publics, whatever. I think this could be worked out. They could have separate districts, but still be allowed to play publics if they wanted to.

Not sure if the Public schools will give them the power to be on their side of the "bracket", but you never know.

They would have their own bracket, and set it up as they like.

IMO, the LHSAA will self implode or go bankrupt. The hippocrites will as the legislature for help, only then will Some sort of peace or resolution happen followed by sensible restructuring.

If Private schools do not leave and setup their own organization, the next move will be to remove them from all district play and district championship honors. You can be in the district, but you cannot be the champion. They will further isolated us. If it is unfair to play for the state championship, then by clear logic, it is unfair to play for any other honors. There are not enough big private schools to have viable private only districts outside of South East and South Central LA unless you go with 4 school districts with long range districts in the north and west. As public prinicipals wield their out of control and unchecked power, they will seek to eliminate all honors from private athletes including removal from all district and all state teams. There will be NOTHING the private schools can do to stop it at this point. Reason has left the building.

Interesting. But not all that surprising, a new league is hard to set up in such a dirt poor state.
But joining a Texas league is not out of the question and has been talked about, by the Texas league.

Haven't been on this board in a while. Looks like nobody else has either. Split works wonders, nobody talks, pretty sad to me, having come from Arkansas in 2010 and grew to really enjoy Louisiana Football. I think the whole thing is silly and childish much like our leaders in Washington, Great examples they are and we seem to be following them perfectly. I noticed a discussion on this board back in April that looked promising that Both sides of the split seemed to be having a substanitive discussion. Shame it couldn't continue. As adults we should all be ashamed of ourselves acting as we do, and expect a different result from our kids, sorry it doesn't happen that way. I have very few suggestions nor am I well informed of all of the problems, but I am willing to try to do something that will make Louisiana a place we could all be proud of and serve as a positive example of how problems are solved. Am I just having silly wishful thoughts?

Basically our AD was saying we were going to play Holy Cross again in 2017, which if they were to leave in a new league before next season, we couldn't under current LHSAA rules. That he said that over the airwaves means not too much change is coming IMO

Talked to a few people at the school my son attends. They seem to think that the new association is ready and has enough schools to make it work. He was told that more public schools are interested than previously thought, with between 100-125 total schools interested in joining. I will know if my info is correct at the conclusion of football season, since I was told that it will be announced either just before the Jan meeting or during the meeting.

Then the LHSAA issues fines and penalties for breaking the contracts, do you really think they gonna pay? And what kind of penalty will they give a gone team? Geez

Geez i would figure schools that are leaving do it after this year because next year, a new scheduling cycle begins but because every year, us and Holy Cross play at our stadium (they haven't hosted us since the 80s), it might just be a one year contract renewed every year

But if they did they would go on an odd year to line up with Mississippi and Texas

But if they did they would go on an odd year to line up with Mississippi and Texas Indy, I think it would depend on how the new league is setup. You could do two year contracts with in league teams and one year contracts with out of state teams to fill gaps etc. Home on home is not necessary if you are willing to travel and not get a return trip.
