So what does everyone think about the new classification numbers?? Several changes coming. Just at a quick glance I noticed haskell harmony grove, bald knob and rivercrest moving up to 4A, Camden HG to 3A and Gurdon back down to 2A as well as Fordyce dropping. I'm sure I missed several others.

3A seems to have a lot of new faces coming compared to the current cycle. It will be the hardest to make conferences and I sure would not want to be the person making the conferences in 3A in particular because I actually see a few scenarios that make sense compared to some other classes that are pretty point blank obvious.. Some schools are going to get screwed over no matter how they make them. It's going to be fun seeing the banter after conferences for 3A are released.

5-3A looses 2. I see Camden HG taking Fordyce's spot and possibly episcopal moving back to 5. Idk who else will fall in that spot to fill the void.

Earle is about smack dab in the middle of 2a....

If the AAA is smart they would move it to 7 Conferences looking similar to this:

1
Greenland
West Fork
Cedarville
Charleston
Paris
Booneville
(Only takes top 4 to playoffs)

2
Clinton
Marshall
Melourne
Mountain View
Rose bud
Harding Academy
Cedar Ridge
(draw to be one of 3 out of 4 conferences to take top 5 to playoffs)

3
Corning
Piggot
Walnut Ridge
Hoxie
Harrisburg
Manila
Osceola
Newport
(Always takes top 5 to playoffs)


4
Lamar
Mansfield
Danville
Two Rivers
Atkins
Perryville
Jessieville
(draw to be one of 3 out of 4 conferences to take top 5 to playoffs)


5
Glen Rose
EPC
Baptist
Mayflower
Dollarway
Palestine Wheatley
Barton
(draw to be one of 3 out of 4 conferences to take top 5 to playoffs)


6
Bismarck
Center Point
Horation
Prescott
Fouke
Genoa Central
(Only takes top 4 every year to playoffs)

7
Rison
CHG
Smackover
Junction City
Drew Central
McGehee
Lake Village
(draw to be one of 3 out of 4 conferences to take top 5 to playoffs)


With this set up there would be no drives over 2 hours with the exception of CHG to lake village and it would only be 2 hours and 4 min. according to google maps.  Certain conferences take more teams to playoffs due to the number of teams in the conferences.

We all know how often the AAA uses common sense though..

HF, you have 9 schools in 3-3a.

Also, It seems to me it would make more sense to swap Melbourne and Newport. Melbourne is both north and west of Newport, and, thus, farther from Barton. Palestine, etc.

Newport is listed twice....oops.... And after actually looking at a map Newport and Melbourne swapping places would make sense for this hypothetical 3a-2....

Why? Rison and Dollarway will be noncontenders. Drew Central and Lake Village are warm ups. CHG will not add anything but won't take away anything. Junction City is a tough team but not as tough last year as everyone claimed. Smackover is always a good team. The Owls, not so much. It will be a two team conf with 2 others battling it out for decent, the rest are just not good.

Cancel that...

This would seem the most logical way to align the conferences given these numbers. Someone is going to have to drive at some point. By bringing Genoa and Fouke into the 3A-5 you eliminate their driving times by a lot.

You, of all people should know that's true. I bet you aren't missing those 8 hours drives at all

I know right. I do not think they have a choice. This is the only possible solution, and you are correct I do not miss those at all.
This way Genoa and Fouke longest drive would be 2 and a half hours vs. having 4 trips over 2 and a half.
