I still think open enrollment schools should be forced to play at the 6A level.  It’s never been an even playing field but apparently the UIL doesn’t care 

I think it should at least be you have to play one division up.

I thought the UIL promoted fairness🤷‍♂️

SOC’s not invincible, eventually ALL Goliaths fall, Empires crumble, and Dynasties end.  The only question is…when is it gonna be your turn?  Tik Tok SOC 😉

Injun or any other ISD can go open enrollment too. Or even play up a division. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

I don't believe SOC is open enrollment.  They just have people/families move into the district lines is what I have been told by Coach Todd.  We all call it recruiting and that very much is what is taking place, but they found the loop hole and are obeying the UIL rules for now.

So ppl just moving in droves to the hood? Yall do know about Oak Cliff right? Not the team, the area. And there's 3 High schools that share that Oak Cliff talent.

Correct. Oak Cliff is one of the highest crime rates and lowest income areas in all of the Metro.

State Fair has been trying to figure out how to leave that area. Just too much history there along with Cotton Bowl to pull up stakes.

Yes, South Oak Cliff High School in Dallas, TX has an open enrollment option, as it is an open enrollment high school within the Dallas Independent School District (DISD). While it serves its local neighborhood, students from other areas can apply to attend through the district's Public School Choice program. To enroll, parents can follow the DISD application process, which may require getting approval for students from outside the local zone.

Im backkkk… just for a post or two. SOC, Randle, and IC, to me, are the top tier teams in the classification. I think we fall into tier 2. Does that mean we can’t win, no…. But it will take a perfect game and pull it out in the end type of situation. I will say this. And I’m a life long PNG fan. I have never seen more ignorance, racism, and utter negativity in my life from the PNG fans. From the crying about open enrollment, gloves, region, coaching, etc…. Suit up and play the game and see what happens. But speak with some football IQ folks. We are in the quarters. A undefeated season so far, great coaching staff, and good little  team. Have a QB, RB, and 2 WR, coming back next year. Versus all the negativity, shoot out some positive thoughts.

Hey, I have no dog in this hunt.  I don't judge anyone for their life style.  I'm just quoting what he message me last season after the donkey stomp they put on us.

No problem. It's all good 👍🏾

PNG has to keep that SOC offense inside the numbers. That speed will kill them if they don't. It's HS football, the level of talent and football IQ isn't at an all-time high. Athleticism beats technical tackling, rushing, and passing at this level. I see it being within 10 points at half, but eventually SOC will make the athletic plays to set themselves apart. Expect to see deep balls over the top of the Indian defense in the 3rd and 4th QTR's. When the defense falls back into coverage to stop the deep ball threat, expect to see the QB use his legs. You don't have to be the world's best coach or offensive coordinator to call that offensive scheme.

You: *Calls PNG fans ignorant and racist*

Also you: "Shoot out some positive thoughts."

Geez, oh man. It must be awesome to feel so pure.

Pulling for PNG but if we are being realistic they have a tough one this week… SOC by 21

We do not just play SOC but the entire city of Dallas where SOC recruits from.

The State Fair isn't in Oak Cliff. It's close to South Dallas. There is a lot of recruiting which I'm not a fan of in the DFW area though. There's some in the Houston area also but I think the DFW area is much worse

Oak Cliff is a large community. Almost like a city within itself. And it actually has some decent little neighborhoods within it
