Take the 32 very best teams in Florida over the past four years, teams that are state champions or regional champions of this type. Those are the teams in 6A. Teams that were consistently 2nd or 3rd round teams; they become your 5A teams. Every two years, we would promote/relegate in football. You would take the 4 worst teams in 6A and send them down (teams 28-32), and we would move up the 4 very best teams from 5A or teams (33-36). So I am not sure how good teams would be promoted over elite teams. We are talking the 4 worst out of 32, and the 4 best of 32. So we aren't talking one good season will promote you up. And yes, large schools could move all the way down to 1A, but they are moving down to 1A because they aren't good. Take one of the worst 4A teams in the state (Jacksonville Englewood). They lost to Paxon, Wolfson, and Stanton. Three solely IB schools. Englewood isn't good. Do you really think the average 1A school would be scared to play them because they are a 4A or complain because they had to play them? Remember the purpose of promotion and relegation is get good schools playing good schools and bad schools playing bad schools. As teams diminish and rise, allowing them to face similar types of teams. -
Here are the number of privates schools in the 32-team playoff brackets (16 teams in Rural): 7A - 1 6A - 0 5A - 1 4A - 4 3A - 3 Rural - 0 So the mathematical odds favor public schools winning 6 classifications at a minimum. Public schools are underperforming if they only win 5 championships, all things being equal between public and private schools. And if all things were equal, the odds of STA winning 7 straight championships is roughly 1 in 2.8 trillion. Shocker... all things are not equal. Private schools may not be stealing titles, but they are continually defying the odds, either by random luck or some systemic advantage. -

They should take @LAZ rankings and @Joshua Wilson rankings and combine them for one super epic ranking. Instead of a room full of zoo animals throwing shit at the wall. -
Sounds great but what would end up happening is that good but not elite program gets punished for winning and likewise, as soon as a larger school gets moved down and wins, the others will cry foul. -

The officiating is what really stood out to me with this game, it wasnt that there was a bang/bang type play that everyone can debate forever about, the deal with the clock was significant in as far as deciding the eventual outcome. Then last night as I watched the Raines/Northwestern game, the 1st thought that came to me was "hmmmm, I know the boyz in Miami like putting money down on these High School games, Im kinda wondering to myself......what player(s) had money bags left at their lockers before the game??????" just sayin
