I think Lucas meant in 1998 they sent 9 and in 1999 they sent 10.I would agree that some bigger schools have more depth, however there could be the 3 or 4 of the best guys in the state in the same bracket in 5a/6a, but it still seems that many schools have several opens, or very week teams.That makes for a bracket with 4 outstanding guys and 4 opens/below average guys.Also I would put a few 4a schools up against any 5 or 6a school any day of the week. Clay Center...Colby...Abilene...Andale, just to name a few.
