You are joking aren't you? Seriously, there is generally a lack of coverage for nearly all Kansas sports outside of Football and Basketball though all the forms of media here. What in the world would make you think that the media would take some sort of serious interest about this?

Frankly I think people are kind of jumping the gun on this a wee bit early. Let me preface the next comment by saying I personally wouldn't support an initiative to increase the number of classes as I share the same opinion with several others that we already have too many classes in the state. I also believe that small school districts across the state should be forced to consolidate in order to try and trim the overhead from multiple sets of administration. This is especially true considering the budget shortfalls the state is currently facing. That being said, I do find it somewhat amusing that considering some of the other issues that have been raised on this forum, that all of the sudden people are up in arms about giving more kids more opportunities to participate in more competition watered down or not.

Just a month ago there was a big to-do about NFHS potentially changing the existing weight classes to try and facilitate more full brackets across the nation. And just now at the kids level people are upset because some of the brackets at State won't be full because existing by-laws do not allow alternatives from other districts to fill. This really isn't a situation where you can have your cake and eat it too.

What is boils down to is, it appears that a small group of schools/ads/etc have made a proposal, and that KSHSAA will discuss it and that will probably be the end of the story. KSHSAA has for many years been very slow to adopt radical changes to it's standard operating procedures. So what you really have to ask yourself is, do I seriously think that KSHSAA is going to make a huge change like this on a whim? Answer: NOT VERY LIKELY.

Relax a little and live your life, cause you only get to do it once.
