A discussion has begun with the the SAC ADs and football coaches about considering a division based Football conference. The idea: Create more chances for schools to schedule outside of Fort Wayne to better to prepare them for tournament play or to give other a chance to schedule competition more at their level. I had along talk with a SAC AD about this at the holiday tournament and here is the idea
Schools will play two open dates, the four in their league as, plus two schools from the other league. On school will be a "locked" opponent (BD and BL ex.) and one will rotate every two years. On the last week of the regular season. You will play whomever is the the at them same place from the other division. (First vs First, Last vs Last ) With home field or neutral location to be discussed
Big School
Snider, Northrop, Carroll, Homestead, BD

Personally, I love it, I do think you would miss some of the more traditional every year games. But I do think it gives school such as South, North and Northrop to put Ws on the board, which can make those programs better. What do the Members of the GD think?
