That would be quite a size difference between Rolla and Herman. Although they did finish 2nd in the league this year as the smallest school by a large margin.Rolla turned down the CMAC. Looks like they will go independent but the Rolla newspaper reports the Four Rivers could be expanding.
Not even the biggest difference - in the rest of the sports its New Haven.That would be quite a size difference between Rolla and Herman. Although they did finish 2nd in the league this year as the smallest school by a large margin.

Waynesville is in the COC now. Of course, that could change. The FRC would need to add a number of "big" schools to make this happen. Union and Pacific are the only ones even close to Rolla in enrollment. All the rest are half or a quarter of the size of Rolla.Maybe Washington returns? Add them Waynesville, Rolla and Cuba then split by enrollment
Thinking there is a lot of truth to this...Everyone that has been around schools or athletics in this area knows Coach Christian is one of the most respected, well liked men out there.
When it comes down to it The COC only really cared about getting Lebanon. If the others would come great, but I don't think any of those 4 get an invite if it wasn't for Lebanon.
It appears that Camdenton didn't want to play in a tougher conference.
That might be true. But would you really want one of your most hated rivals deciding who you play? Don't be silly.Everyone that has been around schools or athletics in this area knows Coach Christian is one of the most respected, well liked men out there.
Then what's the motivation for inviting the others? This just isn't true.When it comes down to it The COC only really cared about getting Lebanon. If the others would come great, but I don't think any of those 4 get an invite if it wasn't for Lebanon.
Patently false. Not even close to being true. They were excited about the prospect. Right up until the football scheduling thing threw a huge wrench into it all. You can choose not to believe it, but you're dead wrong.It appears that Camdenton didn't want to play in a tougher conference.
You'd be incorrect. This person is drawing conclusions. I'm not.Thinking there is a lot of truth to this...
Why not just get everyone in a room and decide on a football schedule? It doesn't make sense that 1 new school gets a sat but the other 3 don't.That might be true. But would you really want one of your most hated rivals deciding who you play? Don't be silly.

You'd have to ask the current COC ADs that question. I'd love to know that answer as well.Why not just get everyone in a room and decide on a football schedule? It doesn't make sense that 1 new school gets a sat but the other 3 don't.
The better, and more judicial way, would be to have two divisions split by enrollment. But just for varsity. Sub varsity schedule completely different based on geography. The COC would more-than-likely be at 14 football teams had this been the proposal.COC could just fix all of these if they would just go east/west. 6 game schedule with 1 or 2 rotating cross over games. Schools could then have the freedom to schedule who they want in week 1 or 2 depending on the number of cross over games are played.
Hey...don't take my word for it. There you go.Camdenton's volleyball coach
Like stating that the schools could not get into the OMC because Branson didn't want to play schools their own size?You'd be incorrect. This person is drawing conclusions. I'm not.
That's accurate. Branson's supt started that whole ball rolling. This isn't a secret. Why else would a school twice the size of almost every other school in the conference they created, create said conference? That's it. Swofford can try to spin it however he wants as far as transient population. But that's it. They can't hang with schools their own size. So they created a conference with schools around half their size.Like stating that the schools could not get into the OMC because Branson didn't want to play schools their own size?

Once again, something that you are wrong on. I could buy it if you said 2/3 their size, but not half. Just because you say it, it doesn't make it right. Get your facts right Knucklehead!

That's 9-11 enrollment. It only grows as you add the senior class in. So my fault, only half the conference is half their size. It's a little tongue in cheek, obviously. Man, you get butthurt easily...Positive, maybe they'll finish above .500 in something. Anything. Maybe chess.Knucklehead! Branson created a conference with schools around half their size?

Is knucklehead your thing? Obtuse is mine? Joes is being a drunk? Boskos is being fat?
OBTUSE is definitely YOUR thing! @mosofan has already claimed "knucklehead" as HIS thing! MY THINGS are 'BOZO', 'NINCOMPOOP', 'NICE TRY' & 'likey'! Joe being drunk and me PREVIOUSLY being fat is just who we are! NICE TRY BOZO!!!That's 9-11 enrollment. It only grows as you add the senior class in.

It is also worth noting that @thetophat2021's thing is "WHOA NELLY". While Joey's things are track times and 'jacktard'That's 9-11 enrollment. It only grows as you add the senior class in.

Yeah, other than Cap City, that's some pretty tough sledding in hoops. I'd say the other 6 teams might average close to 20 Ws per year. That's tough.Crapitis. Camdenton will compete well in football, but man girls and boys basketball may be brutal for those teams!
What is the Will Christian clause? I see his name throughout these threads and various schools I am confused who he is and what he wanted and why one dude matters so much or why he at least thinks he matters.I still think there's an outside chance the COC ADs and supts come to their senses and relent on the "Will Christian clause" to football scheduling. Maybe not, but they screwed the pooch with that idea.
Actually, the percentages don't change. It's strange how simple math works like that. Not butthurt. I don't care about Branson. I just want to keep the facts straight. As Bosko said, Knucklehead is my thing. You've given me plenty of opportunities to use it, you knucklehead!That's 9-11 enrollment. It only grows as you add the senior class in.

Senior classes are the smallest class. So, if we're going off your letter of the law there, yes they would change. Granted, minimally, but hey you're the nitpicking rule-following OBTUSE dude here.Actually, the percentages don't change.

Like I said, Lebanon was the only school the COC schools wanted to deal with. If the others would except then they would have taken them ,but the COC was fine if they didn't. The only one they really cared to get was Lebanon.
OK yes that is very weird. Why specifically give the Lebanon AD a say but not the other 3 invitees? Do they want them or not? Why invite them at all if they don't really want them.

We get it @hangmanbobbyjaggers! Crapitis is YOUR thingCrapitis. Camdenton will compete well in football, but man girls and boys basketball may be brutal for those teams!
If that is true, then you are right, they would change. But as you said, minimally. Which goes back to my point that you are wrong about most of the league being half the size of Branson. Knucklehead.Senior classes are the smallest class. So, if we're going off your letter of the law there, yes they would change.
