Will, call David Morford at DeSoto High. He's the one behind the plan to expand the number of classifications. I agree it is totally ridiculous. Then call every other principal in the Frontier League except Gardner-Edgerton. It's a bunch of sour grapes on the part of everyone else because G-E kicks their butts in everything.

As for Bowden putting in 40 hours a week, he's close to retiring, so he might call it a career before doing that.

And I agree with you on private schools. I am originally from New Orleans, where you HAD to go to a private school or else you would be a blithering idiot when you graduated from high school. Some schools in the LHSAA tried on numerous occasions to throw the private schools out, but it never passed. I don't want to ever see a two-association system like is in place in Alabama, Mississippi and Texas.
