The crazy thing is the way they do the count..meaing that it's the numbers as they are right now (9-12).  Why in the world would this year's seniors have anything to do with UIL competition NEXT year

It won't be any different than what the program is already used to.  Currently, we are the 5th smallest 5A in the state.  it doesn't do any good to belly-ache about it.  If it happens again, we just d

Eventually people will realize this and quit saying that they chose to be in 5A

I agree with that. The downside is more traveling and longer trips for all schools and fans and parents as we have already know. 

True.  But there are quite a few teams that do a lot of traveling now...even with smaller districts across the state.  It's really hard to justify sending 4 teams to the playoffs in a 5 team district.  As much as I wish it would go back to "top 3 get in" I know that it won't.  Playoff games mean money...so 4 teams getting in is here to stay.  But hopefully there has been enough thought put into it and they have gotten enough hearsay to admit that a 5 team district has to be done away with.

Then again I'm not surprised at anything.  We can all speculate what we want but UIL is gonna be UIL.  No telling.

I agree 100%.  Five team Districts are redistrict-u-les, and the UIL gonna UIL.  As for as traveling, in our 6 team District, 12-2A D2, our closest opponent is Hull-Daisetta which is 59 minutes away and longest is Iola at 2 hours and 50 minutes, so yes, we do a lot of traveling.

Would WOS add or drop any from their district? How is that one shaping up? With only 5 teams in the district they need to add another to help with scheduling non-district. This applies to all districts with only 5 teams. 

I read somewhere that UIL is shooting for 8-9 team districts. Not sure how, but I did see it a couple of weeks ago.
