Region II top to bottom isn't near as strong as it was a year ago....Ryan gone....College Station gone..Lone Star probably going to be a bit down...adding Crosby and PAM helps a bit but I think top to bottom its a bit down

They didnt two years ago

If you need some TXHFSB talk in the off-season Tepper and I give you some with the January edition of TepAndStepp for DCTF subscribers only. We talk UIL Realignment and some of the coaching changes that have taken place thus far www.texasfootball.com/article/2022/01/25/tep-stepp-podcast-what-to-watch-for-in-uil-realignment?ref=article_preview_title

I definitely wouldnt call Calallen the "barrio"

Sulphur Springs talent level is way down right now they'll struggle even dropping down to 4A...but there's some good groups at the lower levels...just gonna be about 3-4 years before you see impacts on Friday night

They changed the cutoffs in December because they jacked up the opt up process and several schools opted up late thus causing the UIL to balance out the division splits....they fixed that process this time and were very clear about the deadlines etc...Crosby's gonna be D1 just give up any hope of a last minute change I cant see it happening 10 days before realignment

That press release is dated Dec 10, 2019..the UIL made some changes to how they go about the process to prevent what happened two years ago....the odds of anything changing now are less than 1%

They changed it in early December not late January...

If what I'm being told is accurate Crosby is going to be 5A D1...there's no more opting up changing etc...that ended in early Dec....I can't see the UIL just a couple of weeks before realignment making any adjustments to cutoffs

Correct, Mr Campbell has been in an emeritus role regarding the magazine since the late 1980s, we definitely weren't expecting a man in his mid 90's to be writing and editing capsules etc

You are correct but then you gotta move the 2 Pflugerville schools and Elgin somewhere else and that somewhere else is San Antonio....shoulda clarified and stated "Austin area"

true but if those two schools travel an extra 30 minutes and it cause 3 schools in Austin to possibly travel 30 min less they'll do it....everything is connected...so lets say I move LCISD to a district in Houston now I have to find homes for the Austin schools which means they likely go to San Antonio because there won't be room for them w/Austin ISD.... Thats my logic at least by doing it that way..lol

Not much sillier than putting them in a district with Bryan Rudder and Huntsville is it?

I'm not sure what else you do in El Paso....its a nearly six hour one way drive to the next closest district opponent (note I said CLOSEST)....West Texas presents major travel challenges that are hard to imagine for anyone not familiar with the geography

Kingwood Park will be D1 based on the new # I got for them 5A D2 you have to get a little creative to make it work because you are limited on space and you have certian rules to follow...plus you have a 4 team district in Region I that really has an impact down the line... I thought about flipping Galena Park into 9 and then firing Texas City back over, but it seemed weird to send Texas City over to 9 and not Santa Fe

Goose Creek ISD is opting up their schools to 5A D1

From Humble ISD Admin, I just didnt update the snapshot numbers on the website

I had a bad # for Kingwood Park...they turned in 1937

Great job...nothing like TXHSFB in person

there are TXHSFB playoff games are played out of state aside from last year there's usually one or two per year...Shereveport has hosted multiple games...teams in the panhandle will often play in Oklahoma and teams in Far West Texas have played in Artesia, Carlsbad and at University of Eastern New Mexico
