A future potential problem in 1A sports is that there may not be enough schools field teams to fill a playoff bracket. Here is a proposal that I think would work (I can already here the screams). Do not have a rigid classification system. Not every sport in a school would be in the same class. Take the number of schools fielding a sport and divide by 8. That gives you the class they would participate in. Let's look at a school like Eastern Randolph. In a sport such as football where many smaller schools don't offer football, then they would probably drop to 2A. In basketball where it seems every school fields a team, then they would probably be a 3A . Conferences would not need to change as we already have split conferences. Consider it and then ready aim fire.
A solution that probably would work but most would hate

Do not see anything wrong with it.
So to get put into place, all you have to do is figure out how the Raleigh Right Wing Thief’s can profit from it and it will be forced upon before the next full moon.

Awww…

Sorta…
And seriously, you can’t EVER use common sense when it comes to these things…
I think it makes sense, especially since playoffs mostly go by computer rankings instead preset brackets based on league finish like some states. Would just have to figure out the parameters of who gets grouped together, conference-wise. I know we already have splits, but we don’t have 1A/4A splits and wouldn’t want 500 students with 2000.
Some schools are just chilling with not enough homies to fill a football tea - gotta switch it up! Let the small fry drop down to play flag football or something while busting out triple-doubles in hoop. It’s not just fair game, it’s like inviting everybody to the jello pudding wrestling match and saying, ‘Come one, come all!’”
