Since this seems to be the new trend on the board, let's see what is the most mismatched conference lineups might be. I mean...really make them bad. Bad travel, mismatched size, mismatched success...etc. Let's see how bad we can Frankenstein this up.
Example:
The Four Corners Central Conference
Evansville Reitz
East Chicago Central
Angola
South Dearborn
Indianapolis Tech
East Central
Turkey Run
This what I would like to see as a Bellmont fan.
New NE8
Angola 4A
Columbia City 4A
Dekalb 4A
East Noble 4A
Hun North 4A
Leo 4A
New Haven 4A
West Noble 3A
New ACAC now called the Eastern Plains Conference:
Adams Central 1A
Bluffton 2A
Bellmont 3A
Heritage 3A
Jay Co 4A
Norwell 3A
South Adams 1A
Woodlan 2A
ACAC boots Southern Wells. Have heard they will be going into the second year in a row without a varsity team. Will make the ACAC much more of a competitvive conference where someone other than SA or AC win it every year. Will give Norwell a chance for some championships. And maybe we can win some games finally! NE8 adds Angola and West Noble
This....the issue isn't travel distances on Friday nights on the fall. It all of the weeknight events in all your other sports. We are myopic when it comes to football, but the effect on other sports and the weeknight contests is the big factor.
The (non)American Conference:
Delphi
Peru
Lebanon
Avon
Angola
Alexandria
Edinburgh
Milan
Munster
Warsaw
Monrovia
Salem
Expansion members if needed:
Cambridge (City Lincoln)
Switzerland (County)
More Snider fans would make the trip to Merrillville than they would to South Side. Same could be said for Dwenger. Both teams travel pretty well. At least they did before games were streamed on the internet.
Here's a doozie- The County Conference!
Brown County
Crawford County
Franklin County
Jay County
Jennings County
Switzerland County
Union County
The icing on the cake for this one is that Turkey Run no longer exists!
