you can practically hear them talking each other into this thing. It starts with, "hey, you know what we oughta do?" And no one is smart enough to change the subject.

Why do you feel Ross is not a good fit?
Because they are proud members of the NLL.

Not yet, son. But, I loved the response
Just the size. It's not everything, being almost 150% bigger than the next biggest school is hard to justify. Same reason I wouldn't see Huron with the Lake and why it kind of IS ridiculous Willard can only compete in the River.
But I guess I'll put it this way: it's not so much they don't fit. I just feel the NLL is a better fit.

Believe it or not, it was much worse with Tiffin in relation to others in NOL when OSHAA went to Divisions, 1980
I believe it. I remember Tiffin being in D2 with Defiance and seeing their schedule full of D3 and D4, and that was in the early 2000s. Without knowing I'd guess they were D1 in the 5 division days.

Arcadia / Vanlue need to join the league with HN and USV. McComb/ Arlington/ PG should join the NWC.
Arcadia yes. Vanlue needs 8 man.
No reason for that. Losing Arcadia and Vanlue would leave a pretty good 7 team league who could probably find 1 more.

Honestly they don't really have enough kids for 8 man and enrollment is only going lower. Need to focus on golf and/or cross country in fall.
But what are the parents supposed to do on Friday nights during the football season as some of them were saying on Facebook before the season started.
Family time with the kids? I know...it's crazy.
But, but! The school! The band! The cheerleaders! What will they all do?
It’s because of those darn kids who don’t play football that we won’t have Vanlue schools anymore.

Don't forget about raising money for senior trip.

Problem is NWCC is courting Riverdale. Now can 6 survive with having to schedule 4 non-league games.

Replace with Lepisic, Columbus Grove, Ada, and Allen East or Patrick Henry

Hey man, the Ryder Cup is awesome entertainment. Definitely would pump up the interest in golf if they had student sections/bands/cheerleaders out there ?

I think it's going to be the other way around. Remaining BVC teams do like Leipsic and join the NWC.
Wait for the SBC to fall apart and take a couple western River teams?
Some combo of Fostoria (if they got tired of the NBC), Lakota, Gibsonburg, or Hopewell-Loudon (again) could work.

Leipsic just left the league because they saw the unstable future, Grove, Ada, Allen East, and Bluffton have all been invited several times through the years to the BVC and never gave it a second thought, and PH won't leave the NWOAL as long as they're competitive

Those schools weren't invited several times. There are some schools on your list that absolutely gave it a second thought. And PH was (is?) in exploratory talks in regards to their conference affiliation.
PH was in exploratory talks because Swanton, Delta, and Evergreen were talking about leaving the NWOAL and Bryan and Wauseon were rumored to the 16 team NLL. At the least, rumors had the NWOAL adding Napoleon, maybe Defiance, and potentially a school as big as Bowling Green to replace the 3 that left, and the whole conference very well could have just died off. PH HAD to have talks to leave for their own survival. But it was nothing they ever seriously considered once the NWOAL stayed together. They're going nowhere as long as the current 8 team format there is in place.
