  1.Steubenville
  2.East Liverpool
  3.Martins Ferry
  4.Bellaire
  5.Buckeye local
  I like these 5 because those would be the best matchups year in and year out St Claisville maybe but Ill take a 5 team confrence..

  Half of the teams listed below would not agree to this, but the Buckeye 8 should expand to three divisions of 8 (OVAC) teams broken up by size and OHSAA Region assignment:
  
  "AAA" with Region 11 (DIII) and Region 7 (DII) teams: Big Red, East Liverpool, Indian Creek, Zanesville, Cambridge, Buckeye Local, Harrison Central, Edison.
  
  "AA" with Region 13 (DIV) and 19 teams (DV): St. Clairsville, Martins Ferry, Bellaire, Union Local, Meadowbrook, Barnesville, Monroe Central, and Shenandoah
  
  "A" with Region 23 (DVI) teams: Shadyside, Bridgeport, Steubenville Central, River, Wellsville, Frontier, Beallsville, and Toronto

  I thought about that Brooke would be a good team .....Do you want and red and blue division? ..I dont want too many teams in it because I want to play teams like Massillon and a couple events another good confrence .
  Brooke....East Liverpool...Martins Ferry..Steubenville....Wheeling Central...
• Thinthickbigred

  Looking at how good teams are and the stadiums that they have ......Steubenville..Brooke..East Liverpool...Wheeling and Martins Ferry all have real nice places and are all the toughest teams as a whole in the OVAC.....

  The Big Red wont join any conference that requires them to play annual home/home series. Why they didnt join the ECOL? Dover approved your joining, so why didnt you join?

  I dont know ..We had home and home with Dover for years we didnt end that.....I know we are not going to be playing 5 home and 5 away games every year..

  Many Big Red fans said playing in the ECOL was above them. They cited playing a D 4 team as hurting their own chances. Yet, you propose playing Bellaire and Martins Ferry every year?

  Shhhhhhhhhhhh..............you still got the point!!

  Unfortunately, I don't see Big Red/Bellaire playing again. Otherwise, thinking ideally, when Bellaire gets all the way back on their feet, it would be something to see.

  So does a few people make up our whole fan base and more importantly does a tiny few people reflect the Big Red admin.......Nope so why do you cast aspersions and lump us all into one big bad eliment? Show me by the way one time where somebody made that statement....
