Richmond Heights Post Season Option

I think it’s time the OHSAA politely asks Richmond Heights if they would like to step up a division or 2 in the post season tourney this year. Any great program like that that truly wants to improve and develop their players should jump at the opportunity. If they decline that tells you all you need to know about them. The D4 tourney will be a joke with them in it.

Totally agree. Ended up watching a part of this convoluted mess on YSNlive last night.
Could put you to sleep. Absolutely ridiculous, and I believe Edgewood isn't that bad of a D2 team.

It definitely doesn't work like that.

That’s obvious it doesn’t. But who would stop it if the OHSAA gave them the option to accept a challenge = to their talents? Do you think Richmond Heights players would want to back down from the challenge of a D2 tourney? Do you think any “true” D4 would want the undercover AAU all star team to be in their tourney to determine who the “real” D4 champ was? Let’s be real about all of this

Kind of a dumb question. If OHSAA did that nobody would have the authority to stop them.

I don't know any Richmond Heights players so I can't speak to if they would accept the challenge to a D2 tournament? But why stop there? Why not all the way to D1 or maybe even NCAA D3?

How do you define a "true" D4 team?

Richmond Heights has done nothing wrong. But they have Talent all over the floor playing in D4 it's no fun for them and Surely isn't any fun for the teams who they will face. They need to move up to D2.

Have you presented the proof that you seem to have to OHSAA? Also Richmond Heights is open enrollment, just an FYI.

Previously they were not. They were always a closed district and you can go back and look at their CB. It was 0. Also in order to be eligible for OHSAA tourney you have to have a specific number of teams competing within Ohsaa, football is no longer there. Very curious to see how they are able to hit the necessary guidelines by Ohsaa. End of the day though, their bball team is special, there are not many teams able to compete at the level they are capable of.

They have a D4 Enrollment I know they have D1 talent but D2 I feel would best suite them. But CB will never Move them up 2 divisions so they will Roll D4 this season get moved to D3 next season and roll again with maybe 1 or 2 closer games.

They will only get moved to D3 if their numbers force them to move to D3.
