The OIA already have divisions to "REDUCE" blowouts.   Blowouts will occur so the OIA should make tweaks to reduce that amount.  The ILH has a limited amount of teams so must play each other more than once each season so have limited options.  The OIA do play against the ILH preseason and has a full schedule within their division so cannot accommodate the ILH.  Hence, I would say the ILH wants (NEEDS) a merger more than the OIA.  If the consensus from OIA schools is that they are comfortable and satisfied with the present system, then leave it as such.  Let the OIA decide as they do not NEED the ILH.
