Should the UIL require open enrollment schools to play sports in the highest classification? The private schools who elect to play in the UIL are required to play in the highest classification. Houston's Strake Jesuit comes to mind. SJ's enrollment fluctuates between 1,200 and 1,400, but the SJ sports teams must play in 6A. Should the open enrollment schools be treated the same way? Both systems, private education and open enrollment public schools, can cherry pick athletes.

It's nothing major like you're thinking.

If you and your family haven't grown up/lived in a community your whole life, are you actually beholden to the name on the front of the jersey though? When I was young my family lived in Trinity Gardens in NE Houston in what is now North Forest's attendance zone. Imagine being a life long resident of that community in today's time and having North Shore, CE King and Summer Creek who are all open enrollment football powerhouses 10 mins away. If your kid was any good you'd basically be doing them a disservice by keeping them there simply for "loyalty" purposes. It 100% matters where you play today

If a player makes $300k + per year, what will he be in 4 years? Having earned >$1.2 million? Maybe Baylor coaches are lying to recruits?

I just wanna enjoy the season. 😎

I have monitored it with the HeatSafe app and an electronic monitor from one of the recommended vendors. Both the app and the device have been very close (within a point or two). Looks to me that as long as you are not practicing in the middle of the day you will be able to have a relatively normal practice. It starts to drop rapidly around 4:00 pm. Keep in mind that the temperature and heat index are not the same thing. I have seen the temp at 95-98 and the WBGT well below the danger zone of 92. Yesterday the WBGT got up to 88.5.

What's even crazier is that if you're only paying your starters $11M you have little to no chance of even contending for a P4 conference championship in this environment. Indiana was the outlier because a bunch of their team transferred from James Madison with the coach and weren't sought-after NIL guys. I love that the players are getting paid now but it's also kind of disappointing that the influx of money has led to the strip-mining of high end talent from the lesser conferences. Never again will you be able to turn on a MAC game on a random Wednesday night in November and watch a Chad Pennington hook up with Randy Moss in the snow or stay up late watching Derek Carr hook up with Devante Adams at Fresno St. in a WAC game.

No it doesn't, the only player making over $1M on Baylor's roster is DJ Lagway who was a 5* coming out of high school and started two years in the SEC. The only way you get those NIL numbers listed above are to be an elite high school recruit or a big time transfer that produced at your previous stop. A low rated 4* or a 3* is going to have to earn their money once they get to campus. Prior to Baylor signing Lagway this year they signed Walker White from the portal who was a top 5-8 QB in the nation before singing with Auburn out of high school, he's already out the door again on the way to Central Arkansas. I highly doubt he's collected $300k after three years on P4 rosters. Baylor has had three players drafted in the last four years which is basically when the NIL era kicked off, two have been linemen. If you're good enough to make "millions" in the trenches in college you're most likely getting drafted. Outside of a guy Baylor is willing to overpay for in the portal from time to time to get him to Waco nobody they're willing to pay that type of money to would actually stay there because better teams/playoff contenders would pay more.

Why is that

Dbs gone hate to tackle him

He is faster than what you think

Did he switch numbers too? I called him the human bowling ball last year lol. Didn’t have speed , but kid was hard to bring down! But whose battling for qb??? The transfer and Robert’s?

So, Make America Great is a shrinking thought?! I don’t think so!! 🇺🇸

Trump can bomb Iran all he wants but they are not bending and we running very low on missiles. From what I’ve read it will take years to replenish what we’ve burned on Iran. Hope we don’t get into a skirmish with Russia or China. Iran has been waiting 47 years for this and their country which is twice the size of Texas and is very mountainous makes it very difficult for battle. What a dumpster fire this has become.

Talk to em!

Where did you see it was in the red at 10:00 AM? What instruments were you using?

Not what I asked, but the reply was expected. If the charges were solid, why would James and Smith be under scrutiny? Has anyone ever heard of so many “felonies” against anyone else before? I haven’t. Even serial killers with 50+ suspected victims only being charged with a few. I know, it doesn’t matter because it’s Trump.

There's two things I would point to: 1) If your child is planning to play in the NCAA they better get used to practicing at 6AM regardless of the temperature. 2) You're going to get more out of your reps, especially the ones later in practice, if you're not getting beat down by the sun. There's a fine line between the benefits of practicing in the heat vs the detriment due to sapped energy levels and attention span.

Not surprising , Zero accountability from this administration. All talk. By the way has Letitia or Jack paid for their crimes?

He might be able buy my vote. 😎
