Longview/John Tyler could go north with Sherman, McKinney North, Wylie East and West Mesquite. Longview/John Tyler could be with West Mesquite, Highland Park, Lancaster and Red Oak. Longview/John Tyler could be with West Mesquite, Highland Park, Lancaster, Red Oak and Midlothian. Longview/John Tyler could be with Highland Park, Lancaster, Red Oak, Midlothian, Mansfield Summit and Mansfield Timberview. Maybe they even do a Longview/John Tyler with Wylie East, West Mesquite, Lancaster, Red Oak and Highland Park. It'll be a mixture, somewhat, of all of these teams. But obviously Longview and John Tyler will be together. I am hearing more and more rumblings of Longview and JT going south with Lufkin.....dont' totally dismiss it as a possibility here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulphur Springs and Mount pleasant in separate districts and Gilmer going passed what would been logical District teams to play Nevada community.

MattStepp Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Remember whats happening in West Texas has major impacts down the line in realignment....if West Texas is split into two districts that could really condense things in DFW and it may cause domino effects which force Longview and John Tyler out... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iām not going to say Iām shocked. East Texas lager schools are become like West Texas. Traveling will start being a thing for us where we like it or not.

Like I said for Longview and JT going to the northern burbs of Houston would be very little difference in drive than going to McKinney, Sherman, Wylie etc....

ANTI Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Reason why I was always against pre-split in top two classes. Peeps wanting 'fairness' but never stopped to think about the travel. Longview to Houston for a district game is pretty damn insane. Dallas is nothingĀ but Houston? Look man I have a B.S. in Geography, I can easily come help them figure this stuff out without making it rocket science lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
