This plan allows for:
* More playoff games than are now played, therfore
more revenue for the UIL.
* Basketball only schools can compete seperately for
state titles.
* Does away with the joke that is the current football
state championship set-up.
* Smaller districts allow for a greater chance at the
playoffs.
