Well I left a message this morning still no call back...LOL

I just responded

trying to request crednetials from BISD...been told two different things by two different people on the procedure for a credential request...starting to get a bit worried this could turn into a cluster...anyone know who I need to talk to so I can be able to cover the games Saturday?

I'm guessing Memorial requsted the earlier time so they would not be driving home so late

For me when I am doing the poll I generally won't move teams down for winning...so sometimes if a lot of teams in front of you lose you might move up...but if everyone in front of you wins you may stay the same...i just try to be consistent with my formula....

game is now slated for 2pm next Saturday in Alice

I'll be there for both games!

Some of my favorite 3A Stadiums are Sweetwater Brownwood Abilene Wylie Gladewater Paris (new one is nice) Multi-School ISD's with 3A schools that have nice stadiums North Forney Frisco (Pizza Hut Park) Dallas ISD (Kincaide Stadium)

I think Dayton and Brenham will be fighting out for the Region 3 crown again

I also dont believe it will be back

In addition to seeing the double header in Beaumont on Oct. 30 I'm also going to be seeing the Alice-Pt Arthur Memorial game on Sept. 11 in Alice....should be a fun game...heard Alice packs the house and they are a decent 4A team

Allen's stadium is not open yet, but it'll be insane My top 3 Grande Communications Stadium in Midland Round Rock ISD Athletic Complex CH Collins Athletic Complex in Denton

I tend to try and find the positive in things because the UIL isn't changing...its all about money...more playoff games =more revenue....so look at the bright side of things...

[Hidden Content] Here's statewide 3A In all honesty who cares that more teams make the playoffs? The bad teams get weeded out in the first round anyway and it makes potential for more big games

Here is 4A [Hidden Content]

4000-2200 is less than the minimum desired ratio of 2:1....there's very few schools w/enrollments of over 4000 (less than 10 I think) so it does reduce the enrollment disparity somewhat....

Yeah I had to adjust by 2 schools and that put Dayton in 5A..#'s may move by 2-3 schools as I work through each class

[Hidden Content] Here's 5A

Here's Class 6A [Hidden Content]

Yes a ton can happen..its just kind of a fun working model for us....DCTF did just 6A but realignment is something you can't do one class or one area...its a domino type affect statewide where you gotta break it all down

I just finished my mock alignment...here's my cut offs Class 6A 2255-Up 202 schools Class 5A 1435-2254 199 schools Class 4A 715-1434 173 schools Class 3A 345-714 163 schools Class 2A Div. 1 261-344 85  schools Class 2A Div. 2 195-260 87  schools Class A Div. 1 149-194 77  schools Class A Div. 2 100-148.5 79 schools Mind you I included the 17 new football playing schools for 2012 realignment as well to make it a more realistic projection of what we'll see in 2012.  Division 1/Division 2 will stay...you can't take 4 teams to the playoffs and have just one Division.....season would go past Christmas...I believe this will happen in 2012...also look for an interesting first round twist w/the district champions...

LOL wow I haven't heard an American Me reference in quite sometime.. It's the Saturday game against Channelview but I think thats Oct 30 at least according to the Enterprise

I am heading down to Beaumont in October to check it out....cant wait

Anything is possible. 

Rey I am talking about high school football in Texas at the 5A level.  The difference between 20 and 48 is minimal....check out Padilla Poll or Jerry's ratings and you'll see that kind of split when dealing with teams of that ilk. As for names, typos etc...it happens, sometimes coaches handwritting just isn't real good.  I had several typos on team capsules I wrote because I couldn't read the coaches chicken scratch LOL
