Honestly, they should blow up all those leagues and start over to get schools with their peers and to get a bunch of schools, like Riceville, off their islands.
Charles City looking to form new conference after racial issues
- Thread starter simply1
- Start date
Yeah, they were one of the leaders for TIC. Found out that beating up on 1A schools does not help you come tournament time.
Just do 4 3 team pods with two protected rivalries and home and homes based on conference standings from the previous year and a round Robin inside of your pod UNLESS more than two teams in a pod are rated in the Top 10 of either the state rankings or the national coefficients. It just makes so much sense to do it this way.

I fully admit having more competition is great, but to say Osage is hurting come tournament time is a stretch. Volleyball seems to have been just fine (6 straight tournament appearances, 1 championship). Girls Basketball with some deep playoff runs and a runner up a few years ago. Boys Basketball has been solid. Im kinda interested in the perceived struggles?!?! I wouldn't mind having the old North Iowa Conference back myself
Yeah, I forgot about Osage having a WBB run when you dropped a class. Guess I had not heard of the boys making state lately so that was news.
Decorah is geographically screwed long term if they can’t cross state lines.
Agree, S-F has some whiners relative to their existing NICL membership but they really need to stay put.
If they can keep a league together that they dominate as the biggest school, they will be fat and happy.
Osage is becoming like the Texas of HS small conferences. They whine and blow up the NIC and now are whining and could blow up the TIC. Let them roll and be NEICs headache.
K. I'm wrong. New Hampton's superintendent is wrong. You've got all the answers.
Enlighten us.
Lots of moving parts but NEIC is fine. If New Hampton is your source…I don’t know what to tell you. Lol.
I'm decently plugged in with NICL East schools and haven't heard anything about that at all
Oh, I don't think it's going to happen but it's the best fit for New Hampton as they continue to shrink.
What are the rules on having conference partners in different states? Does it matter? I have no idea.
Whiting is in a Nebraska-based conference for basketball and volleyball.
Didn't the Sioux City schools used to be in a conference with the Sioux Falls schools?
