I actually think the MVC-LVC merger was driven by trying to balance the schedules more so that the MVC schools have to play two crossovers against the LVC schools. It sucks that Easton can't go out and schedule the likes of Pennsbury, O'Hara, Altoona, CB West with an open date as they have in years past, but I partly see the logic.
Of the two 6 class options, which do people prefer? I think Super 700 sounds good until you break down which schools actually fall where. It basically eliminates all of D7 at the 6A level, with only North Allegheny , Butler, and Seneca Valley making the cut, turns 4A into Erie Cathedral Prep's coronation every year, and does the same for Bishop McDevitt in 3A. The straight 6 class split still has a weak 6A D7, but at least adds PCC, and the powerhouse 3A schools don't get spread quite as thin across 5A through 3A.
