Nobody disagrees here but the crystal ball in 1985 - 86 did not tell them the playoff system was going to change and Warren would have only 5 or 6 winning seasons in 30 years. Also the TVC was adding smaller schools miller and wellston and the SEOAL had teams more our size.

Hindsight says we should not have changed and I am sure we did not do it gracefully as well so that might be some of the hard feelings.

Well in hindsight, it didn't necessarily. But with the landscape at the time, it was a calculated move. There's something to be said for trying to raise your level of competition, it just didn't work out.

After Hill, the next coach tanked, but then Mike Devol had them on a decent track. They finished 4-6 his last season but had 6 straight winning seasons before that (started 7-3, 8-2, 9-1), but they missed the playoff expansion by just a few years (finished 8th in 95-96). I'm not sure that it would have made a difference to be in the TVC in any of those years (would have to do some research and what-ifs). Devol left for Parkersburg South where he turned a terrible program into WV State Champs and then went back to Caldwell and took them to the expanded playoffs three times. Meanwhile, Warren has gone thru 7 coaches in 15 years with 1 winning season.

It seems like Warren gets a solid stretch of talent for a few years about once every decade, but the stars have never aligned with the right combination of coach-schedule-expanded playoffs to match it.

That could be true BUT with all the turmoil with all the leagues around central and southern Ohio anything could happen!

Logan might never find a league.

They might find one next week.

They might find one in 3 or 4 years.

All of these are equally accurate statements.

I predict Logan will play football for the foreseeable future! League or no. Deal with it SEO! Some league somewhere is missing a huge opportunity.

Thought I would post here since Logan to the MSL has been discussed in this thread.

I have heard from a source I know at a MSL school that the following changes are occurring to the league:

MSL-Buckeye: No change other than Liberty Union will begin (I think in 2017) playing Football only in the MSL-Ohio division
MSL-Ohio: As already announced, Madison-Plains and West Jefferson are leaving the league. Along with LU coming over for football only, Bishop Ready will also join for football only.
MSL-Cardinal: As already announced, Bishop Rosecrans and Wellington (no football) will both be joining in the next few years. Worthington Christian (a member of the MSL-Ohio in everything but football) will continue playing football in the Cardinal for the near future.

So, if what my source says is accurate, the league will look like this (football only) by 2017 (I think) [changes in BOLD]:
MSL-Buckeye: Amanda-Clearcreek, Bloom-Carroll, Circleville, Fairfield Union, Hamilton Twp., Logan Elm, Teays Valley (7 teams)
MSL-Ohio: Bexley, Bishop Ready, Columbus Academy, Grandview Heights, Liberty Union, London, Whitehall-Yearling (7 teams)
MSL-Cardinal: Berne Union, Bishop Rosecrans, Fairfield Christian, Fisher Catholic, Grove City Christian, Harvest Prep, Millersport, Worthington Christian (8 teams)

I have read some rumors, but nothing certain about a few other changes. London seems to be the odd school out with the other Madison County schools leaving, and may be looking at other options in west-central Ohio.
A few schools were either offered or interested in joining (I don't know the details). One was Buckeye Valley (near Delaware), who I think turned down admission. There may have been one or two others.

Not sure what this might mean for Logan and the league (I assume the Buckeye won't want to keep an odd number in football for long), so maybe in football at least there might be space for Logan. Nothing from my source on this though.

I am assuming instead of adding Logan for football, they are going to do crossovers between the Ohio & Buckeye **with the exception of Bishop Ready**.
