Two proposals I would make are 1) allow teams with history of poor performance to petition the IHSAA/Coaches Association to move down a class for a cycle. This could help struggling programs and create better matchups for the Frankforts ,Shelbyvilles, and Crawford Countys. Set criteria of under .250 winning percentage and previous tournament "lack of" success factor as eligibility to apply. Only allow a certain number (3 or 4) per class each year. If we expect the "good teams" to play up then we should let the "bad teams" play down. 2) make 1A & 6A the 32 team tournaments. Lots of 1A schools have less than 30 players. A week off could be better served for these schools instead of 5A schools that have unlimited subs/players. This would also help shake the tournament up a bit. It seems that lately the only way to shake it up is to make wacky sectional alignments. This would give a whole half a class of new schools/opponents.
