I don't remember hearing him say that but I agree with you point. A below average football team will draw as many fans in one game as an above average soccer team does in a season.

QB1 is a GREAT show. I forget which season but one of the California teams traveled to NY and Flordia in the same season, which is crazy to me.

No matter how this shakes out, some schools are going to be left unhappy.
I don't see the high school league going to a sport specific solution so I don't foresee much changing.
