The last discussion about the Open Division by the FHSAA Board of Directors that I am aware of is from January 29.  At that time, the Executive Director said that the final product was going to be tweaked from the initial proposal.  He indicated that the double-elimination format was likely not staying, since double-elimination doesn't really make sense for football.  The original proposal featured 8 teams, but he also mentioned 12 teams as a possibility.  The one factor that seems pretty set in stone is using the final regular season state MaxPreps rankings to select the top 8, or 12, or whatever number of teams they decide on to be placed in the Open Division bracket.  There was supposed to be further discussion at the February BoD meeting, but I have not seen any reports that any discussion took place.  The next BoD meeting is April 19, and I would think they would need to make some final decisions pretty soon.  That's all I can offer, but glad to hear from anyone else who has more information to offer.
