So the numbers the SCHSL sent out had 38-46 teams in 4A but this only has 24, right?

Thank you for taking a shot at this.

I don’t see York listed. I could have missed it.

Should be interesting to see what they come up with this time. Just hope we don’t end up in a region with Columbia schools. Gaffney is fine.

In this prediction there are 39 teams.
Also york is missing but I doubt they would be 4A
But may knock someone from 5A to 4A.

So maybe totally wrong, but I think the # that will determine a lot of movement will be students enrolled that are not zoned for that school. So if Daniel for example is a school of Choice and has 200 out of zoned students enrolled, the multiplier would increase their attendance 400 students? Just example, have no idea of anybody's enrollment. Am I understanding multiplier correctly?

Ridgeland-Hardeeville will be in Single A as they are splitting (again) back to two separate High Schools.

Yes say school A has a 1000 students but 200 come from out of zone
So 800 in zone students
600 out of zone
1400 total.

An example where this is unfair is Wade Hampton hs
There are 1400 kids there
Over 400 go to the fine arts center
Technically should be 3a to start with
I would think 90% or more if those students do not play sports. They get zero athletic benefit out of those students
Most of those are out of zone. This will take them to the top end of 5A. Now is that fair?

One of the biggest problems I see with this rule going forward is that 5A schools can now recruit with zero penalties . They are already 5A where are they going to go?
This has disaster written all over it.

Please please let this be wrong for Abbeville to be in Class A. There are some good teams in Class A, but, not many after this year. That region , for us, would be a joke, no fun at all, no disrespect intended but it's just the truth. Ticket sales would plunge as well. Even some of the better teams in AA are going to AAA in this projection. For the love of everything football related, leave us in AA!!!!!!!! Please!!!!
