There are a lot more open enrollment ISDs than you think that are out there as well....Dallas ISD is far from unique in that regard
I do believe TX should consider doing like Louisiana and creating classifications and seperating out open enrollment ISD's vs non-open enrollment ISD's 

I think you are overestimating SOC's talent this year..PNG especially up front IMO was more talented

That used to be a rule but I dont believe it is any longer

Because thats an ISD decision, PNG could tomorrow go open enrollment if they choose to.

I'm not the world's biggest fan of open enrollment myself, but we can thank the Texas legislature for that along with charter schools et al..it is what it is and the UIL does the best they can with the resources alloted. The kids that play for SOC are all eligible under UIL rules, the open enrollment/recruiting conversation to me is just as moot IMO as SOC people complaining about some close calls that didnt go their way

It was a Fort Worth crew, SOC uses Dallas, it wasn't SOC's home chapter. 
Coach Todd said he agreed to the crew and he owned that, he admitted if he knew there was an official who worked in Port Neches he likely wouldn't have agreed to the crew (I wouldn't have either) thats not to say it automatically makes them a bad crew or a bad official but there's optics and its probably not fair to put him in that spot. 
Coach Todd did say he didnt agree w/the PI call and I wouldn't expect him to, its a close call that went against his team, no coach will be happy about it, its just the nature of the game

Probably shoulda been defensive holding, but still woulda resulted in 1/2 the distance and an automatic 1st down

They still are..they are the Mecca because of the late 60's/early 70s not now

I think it was more of a perfectly executed onside kick....not sure a lot of teams would have been ready for an onside there...it was a gamble and a great call by Coach Joseph but I dont think it was poor coaching from SOC

Full stop, I picked PNG to win because of the trenches and they were better team IMO, the bad DPI call shouldn't take away from their win

That was a pretty bad DPI...they let a LOT worse go both ways today and then how late the flag was....it was pretty bad IMO 

SOC's been a second half team all year, you could argue PNG outplayed them in the first half and they are still losing...thats concerning if I'm a PNG fan

Sophomore P5 talent is quite a bit different than senior P5 talent in terms of expeirence, big game execution etc....most of the SOC sophomores who are P5 guys are still behind seniors who are borderline FCS/D2 guys

I believe they'll open the lots and stadium at 930....but cars will be lined up at each entrance waiting to get in

They definitely didnt run Bailey this week as much so something seemed off....the wind helped Westlake for sure because North Shore's biggest edge was on the outside w/their WR's vs Westlake's DBs was neutralized....

This SOC team isn't nearly as talented across the board as 2021/2022...the staff has done a really good job maximizing the talent of a good HS team...but that also IMO makes them much more vulnerable than last year..
If you are coming up for the first time there are plenty of nice hotel options in the area...if you find a hotel with a shuttle thats optimal...you can bring an empty water bottle into the stadium and they have water stations to fill water bottles if you are making a day (or two) of it and dont want to spend too much money at concessions etc...
Live by Loews is the closest hotel and is connected to Texas Live...yes its pricy but it is very nice...across the street Lowes is being built but not ready yet....
