6 kids from A (32 teams)

So in a nutshell, likely 2/3's or 66% of the AA teams get a player
18% of A teams get a player
8% of B teams get a player
Laughable.
Like the 3 class plan, this was probably done to "benefit the small school".

What is the issue with the setup and what is the fix?

Issue - 12 kids for 18 teams and 12 kids for 104 teams
Yes I realize the 12 kids for 18 teams are metro areas
Fix: Select the best 24 kids regardless of geographic location. I realize that isn't as easy as it sounds, and it could lead to more than 12 kids for the AA areas, I just look at this like all-state - don't have a preset number that need to be selected from each region or class. Have the coaches decide who the best 24 are and that's who plays. As far as teams, west vs. east sounds good.

If they did this, there might never be a kid from B selected again. My guess would be 1-2 per year.

Pretty sure the Lions games are independent from the NDHSAA.

This is correct...has nothing to do with Mr. Johnson and the NDHSAA

The reason for needing a new Lions game format has a little bit to do with Mr. Johnson and the NDHSAA.
