This is a little different IMO. This was more of a format issue. People loved the Elite 8 format that would bring 8 teams to the State Finals in the two classes. Now there are two titles each weekend and it is seen as taking away the excitement of the entire weekend in many people's minds. And I think 4 classes were two much, 3 would have been better. Big schools like the fact they can compete and play each other. The problem were the smaller schools that would two schools with 50 students could play 500 students. The school with 50 would claim that it was not fair, but funny a few state champions in the old Class A would win titles over the larger schools in that class.

Peace
