On Sportsline this week, Ty Taylor and Jim Taylor open the show by reacting to this week’s news that the IHSA’s competitive balance committee is recommending a policy change to create separate paths in the state series for team-bracketed sports, ensuring that only one non-boundaried school can advance to the semifinal round. Then, they discuss the opening round of the football playoffs.
IHSA Executive Director Craig Anderson joins the program to discuss several topics surrounding the upcoming IHSA legislative session, which runs through December. He covers the separate public/private school postseason path idea, a by-law proposal that aims to return to the previous IHSA football playoff model of 256 qualifiers, potential changes to transfer eligibility, and more (37:47).
Ty and Jim close the show with reaction to the confirmation that a by-law amendment has been submitted to return to the previous postseason football model. (1:15:17)
