Don’t really understand this.  What is the reason, are they trying to avoid something or is there some advantage to it?  This means they cannot compete in the state tourney?

Correct. They will not be eligible for UIL playoffs next season.

Most likely waiting for a more favorable realignment.

It may be that they don't have enough in the program to feel like they could complete a district schedule.  It is kind of early, but the UIL wants them to do this at this time so the rest of the district can figure out what it wants to do.  And it beats the alternative of forfeiting district games which, in seasons other than 2020, can bring a pretty stiff penalty from the UIL

No, they will not be eligible for the UIL playoffs.

Thanks for the replies, I think I remember Sabine Pass doing it a few years back.

You're right, they did.  But they waited until late in the summer to do it and that really po'd the other schools in the district as it was too late for them to schedule around it.

You can schedule them for non-district.

I doubt they'll schedule anyone they don't think they can beat.  Otherwise they would've played the schedule given to them.  In my opinion..

I'm sure they'll be scheduling Burkeville, Sabine Pass, Colmesneil, High Island, etc..  Possibly twice if any of them will agree to it.  Maybe some 3A jv teams.

Even as a person who has disliked West Hardin for a very long time, this is sad to hear about.  I also can't believe that I agree with something that oldschool said.  Not many kids are going to be excited to play a full season of games that don't really mean anything.  Hate it for the kids over there

Playoffs? Playoffs?! I do not think they were in any danger of having to worry about playoffs anyhow. 

Absolutely right.  I think that every coach in the state should assess their school's individual situation each classification year.  Better yet.. each season.  If it's deemed by the staff based on strength of district competition or loss of players to graduation, they should let UIL know that they're just gonna play an outlaw season.  As opposed to the regularly scheduled district that UIL came up with due to enrollment and geographic location.  If they're not "in any danger of having to worry about playoffs anyhow", just make it easy on everyone else.  That way, the remaining teams in each district across the state can just play it out for seeding.

I think this is fantastic, West Hardin High School.  You guys are the trend setters.  Way to lead into the new decade!  Can't win? No worries.. just play schools you can beat. ;)

I'm not sure they can get a schedule of ten teams they can beat.

    • Hold them accountable? Like here in Texas where we have, by any definition, the most conservative Speaker that we’ve ever had. He pushed through an abortion ban and border security measures, reduced school taxes, etc… and the people who put him in office are firing him for not being MAGA enough.    Every third commercial on TV is Trump (or somebody who supports Trump) calling Phelan a RINO and supporting an impotent replacement for the most powerful person in the House.    It’s 100% MAGA, and it’s 12000% stupid.    “oh, he didn’t do those things by himself” says everyone who doesn’t understand parliamentary procedure. 
    • @bullets13 not sure why it double posted the topic.. delete this one plz sir
    • Me personally I respect posters like @bullets13 @CardinalBacker they vote for a guy and can call out others in the party or the direction a party can be headed.... others on here fall "lockstep" with whatever happens and defend by all means is the mantra it seems... no need to call out names, it's probably you if your mad at this statement 🤣 
    • I recall prior to midterms the R's and the "red wave" would get America "back on track" etc.... they would end this and stop Biden from that blah blah blah, so what's the problem? It looks like a circus show from both sides and whoever can sit or stand with a straight face and defend it is a 🤡! Desantis would've been a slam dunk for the R's and he possibly would've got my vote... now they pick a guy who lost the popular vote twice lol (yeah I know that means nothing in grand scheme of things).. point being is the dude is highly unlikeable (I also know this doesn't matter) 👈🏾 just getting ahead of the deflectors... personally I hope the clown gets in there so ppl can see how ultra right the clown is trying to push America for... IF he wins in November you can bet he will be on a rampage for 4 years getting lil if anything done, will most likely spend his term for the same thing some of yall complain about daily, going after his opponents... but hey the D's do it right? So yeah it's cool if we do it SMH We're supposed to vote on policies etc while at the same time the person you vote for that made promises to change or fix this and that complains about his predecessor being the issue! It's all a joke What have R's done that's good for America since midterms?  What have D's done? And please leave your feelings out of this and be truthful if possible!
