Where that D4-D5 cutoff would be would be huge. Several of the teams you mentioned are right near the line.

Same with the D2-D3 cutoff. Revere would be right on the bubble.

Cardinal Mooney would enter D4 as one of the heavyweights.

Also Lima Shawnee is the team that won last year, not Springfield. Different schools.

No matter how they decide to carve it up I think you would end up with great competition in each division and some schools getting a shot that struggled to before.

I know Lima Shawnee was the team that won last year, which is why when I noted Springfield Shawnee as school #125, I didn't comment about their "ability level".
 
In the Sw that D4will be loaded Summitt,Alter,Waynesville,Madiera including several others with quality programs.
 
Looks like current proposal is as follows

D1 Top 64 in enrollment
D2 Next 64
D3-5 the rest of the schools divided by 3.

All depends on how motivated they are to make it happen. Once they approve it they have a long time to sort out the detail of how the tourneys would work.

Would anyone really be against it? I can't really think of a reason.

One certain issue is you would likely need 2 locations for finals. Having 5-6 finals in one day would be crazy.

Why do the games have all be on the same day?

The current structure is that all the championship games are either at Lower.com Field or Historic Crew Stadium. Right now that has three games played on each of two days. Lower.com used when it works out relative to the MLS calendar, HCS if it doesn't. There are obviously different options on how to split the games over the course of dates; also the division (or divisions) at 64 teams would/could have their playoff either end earlier or start later than the ones with more teams because there are less games involved.

I think OHSAA is going to want to have all the games played in a first-class, centralized venue if possible
