  1. No Madison doesn't belong.  School like Trenton, Bronson, or Mayo are filling there teams with 9th - 12th graders to have just decent numbers.  Schools like Madison and Ft.White are pulling from JV teams of 9th and 10th graders while their varsity teams are primarily made up of Juniors and Seniors.  Most true rural school play in a 7th. 8th & 9th leagues with the best 9th graders playing varsity.  Heck I know a few schools in 1A in the past have started 8th and 9th graders on varsity.   Now those 8th and 9th graders have to go up against the Madisons, and Ft.Whites of the world.

  2. Exactly TigerFan.  It is a different place then the Bells Trentons Dixies Bronson of the world.  They ran from 4A plain and simple.  I am wanting to see how they schedule this year because if they are still playing the 4A and 5A schools that they played last year and are beating them some what do you think they are going to do to the Bronsons and Bells of the world.  I wouldnt care if most 1A schools dropped out and form their own league.  It would benefit the smaller rural areas.  Madison is not a small rural area like say Trenton is it is worlds apart.

  3. Truthfully I think an Independent schools championship would be great. North Carolina has the NCISAA and conducts championships in 3 classes 1A/2A/3A for private schools(non-parochial schools so catholic schools play with publics). Schools like Day schools and such play in this independent league and it works just fine. 

    Georgia does this as well with the GISA.  They also have a new league in Georgia called the GICAA.  These are both independent private school leagues that have up to 3 classifications per organization and have state championship for both.  I want to say most southern states have leagues like this Alabama, GA, SC, NC and probably others.
