The bigger schools who are getting their budgets cut the most won't agree to have fewer regionals (cost savings) and fewer participants at state (cost savings). You prove to me that there are, per capita, more wrestlers in 5A and 6A than 4A and I will agree that they should have 16 man brackets. You can't because it is not true! Look at the number of losing records going to state in 5A and 6A!!!! They didn't just get better the last week before regionals!! Was there a 4A or 321A bracket that had 50% of its spots filled with BYES??? NO!!! The liberal minded, socialistic education system where everyone has to be a winner should step aside for wrestling a put something together that makes sense! The Montana system would allow those teams who have numbers to fill some spots but is that the answer, to water down state even more? I hope not.
