As an average size class D high school I would favored the two 16 team divisions. This would make an even playing field for the small class D high schools and the larger ones. I would prefer schools that are Class C would not be allowed to play in the post season. I am afraid if we allow the Class C in where does it stop. Bigger schools would want to get in too.<br /><br />Terry Evanish, AD at IAF https://my.mhsaa.com/News/Blog-From-the-Director/ID/5449/Questions-for-8-Player-Football#Comments lvannest@haleschools.net Comment by lvannest@haleschools.net on 'Questions for 8-Player Football' https://my.mhsaa.com/News/Blog-From-the-Director/ID/5449/Questions-for-8-Player-Football#Comments Fri, 02 Dec 2016 14:38:48 GMT f1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:5935 I support the original plan for the 8-player tournament: to be expanded to a 32-team field and a five-week format. I am hopeful such a playoff format will be enacted for 2017.<br /><br />Some alternate indoor facility should be sought in place of Ford Field for the 8 man finals. Since 8 man participation is more northernly, where low enrollments are common, possibly the Superior Dome at NMU in Marquette should be looked at for hosting the 8 man finals.<br /><br />Loren Vannest, Superintendent Hale Area Schools https://my.mhsaa.com/News/Blog-From-the-Director/ID/5449/Questions-for-8-Player-Football#Comments
