Having grown up in Indiana, I can only recall the good ole days when we had a one class system. Also, teams were not seeded, they were selected like a lottery. I can remember sitting in front of the TV to see who we drew. It was awesome!! I am so glad that they went to four classes to increase revenue and are losing money hand over fist. If it ain't broke don't fix it!!! We usually ended up playing a school 3 or 4x's larger then we were, but it was a great experience. I hope they go back to one class.
On a side bar, I do like the Illinois 2 class system. When I lived in the Chicago area it was nice to see the "Small School" and "Big School" champions, They have done a good job keeping each unique.
I will step down from my soap box.
