Let’s broker a deal for week 3 next year. Gunter vs Liberty Eylau and Celina vs Carthage.
The funny thing about this is that if either hadn't found other opponents, it would have been Gunter vs Carthage last week.

There is no honor in getting blown out. Stupidity and bravery are often erroneously interchanged.
So they were just supposed to take three weeks off because no one wanted to play them?

If Gunter wasn't already so banged up, I would think it would be close. But considering who's out, especially on defense, the final score might not be indicitaive if they were both at full strength.

Got to play non district games vs teams that will test you, and not be afraid of losing.. Aledo may lose to Guyer this week, or win..either way, weaknesses will be exposed, and tense pressure situations will be practiced in real time. The games don’t count, it they do count in the film room, and practice the next week.
or sometimes you've got to play the only people that will play you

It happens a lot...make up a new position like "transportation director" or whatever so they can move him out and give the title and more money to someone that they have promised it too.
Oh I know it does. I had a coach be reassigned to oversee the textbooks used by the district.
My point was for a school district Henderson's size (upper-end 4A high school) they don't have someone in charge of transportation? Security and saftey? Maintenance? Those seem kinda like basic positions, not something to use as a throwaway job.

Where's our Hendo folks? What the heck is going on now, I thought things were going along pretty smoothly after a rough couple of years!!!
HENDERSON —" Henderson ISD’s athletic coordinator and athletic director Clay Freeman is expected to be reassigned during Tuesday evening's regular Board of Trustees meeting, based on a recommendation from Interim Superintendent Jim Dunlap."
"Freeman, who has been the AD for three years, was notified directly by Dunlap that they’re creating a new position for him, Executive Director of Facilities. The new position would involve overseeing maintenance, transportation, safety and security over school campuses."
Henderson ISD expected to reassign AD Freeman to new role | News | thehendersonnews.com
My question is: Henderson didn't have someone doing that, or overseeing some of those things, in the first place?

Now just split the classifications into divisions for every sport.
It’s better for smaller schools that way.
I think that's the plan for the next realignment.
They wanted this implemented immediately and nobody wanted to go back and change schedules and stuff at this late point. There were a lot of coaches in those sports that were caught off guard this was even going to happen. So I think they will keep it like this for the cycle and then split them.

Are you sure about that? The bracket sets up for Region 1 vs 3 and Region 2 vs 4 in the semi-final.
The top two records are split into separate semifinals and they flip a coin between the other two to see who they will face

You think Whitesboro will be moving up? I don't expect the growth to reach that far north for a while.
Whitesboro has a really good chance to move up pending where the cutoff falls.
the cutoff this last time was 545, which was unchanged from the prior one, and Whitesboro turned in 508, which was an increase of 43 from the prior realignment.
They are trying to pass a bond and as part of the presentation are prjoecting the HS enrollment for the start of the 2024-25 school year as 556. So if the number stays around where it has been the last two cycles, Whitesboro will already be over it with a year to add to it before snapshot day

How many 3A and 2A schools have enough kids to have soccer in the first place?

Gill has been at Gunter for the past five seasons, the last three as the OC. He moved to offense when Coach Wylie left to be Blue Ridge's head coach

Some of these graphics could use some real work, some are very hard to read.
The worst are the ones with just logos and no names -- like I know which Eagle you're playing in Week 1 and that Tiger in Week 3

whoa, what a matchup!
There is one more spot to fill based on where Gunter's bye falls and again it could be a huge name.

It would have made more sense putting Beckville in District 11 and having 10 and 11 with 7 teams each .....
If they can avoid as many odd-team districts they will so there is no rolling bye and everyone is on equal footing

Gunter looking for a Week 4 now, Brock dropped them
-
The potential Week 2 is a doozy as well. It's not out there yet because they are each trying to find other opponents. or Gunter might just take a double bye, but if you think the schedule is super tough now....

You keep being the shill you are for Gunter for your newspaper. Grab a copy of the yearbooks from the past few years and count how many have been in each class hoss. I’ll wait while you lick Jake’s boots some more Jason. That or just keep your head in the sand. Insiders from the ISD that have no ties to the school will gladly tell you what they did two years ago. Ask around if you are a true reporter.
You can literally look at the month-to-month enrollment and see there is no irregularity. There is no spike in either direction that can be attributed -- from october 2022 to october 2023 the high school dropped nine kids to what they turned in.
Counting heads in yearbooks? That's the smoking gun and no one's used that to take down a dynasty. I have heard all sorts of stuff in regards to this topic and my response is the same -- show me hard evidence that proves Gunter has done anything to manipulate enrollement. Not a coach told a coach told his friends stuff. Text messages, emails, not hearsay or sour grapes. Not somthing people think is wrong but is within the guidelines the UIL allows.
I can't just go around spouting stuff just because this person says it or that person believes it. I'd like to not be sued and keep my job.

They have had the numbers to move up for a few years now, it’s just on snapshot day enough of those pesky transfers get un-enrolled for a few days to stay under.
Yeah it's crazy how that in the two months since Snapshot Day, the high school enrollment shot all the way up to.....oh they dropped two kids and are down to 361
I guess they forgot to re-enroll all those pesky extra kids

No they're pretty far off, would need to opt up
They are not far off -- they missed by six kids. There is a like an 85 percent chance they go up next time.

I'm getting the stats from the official UIL site as well. He had gains of 19 yards and losses of 3 for a NET of 16. Either way, not very many yards, but you're only referencing the positive yardage. Not sure why the UIL separates out positive yardage from negative - it seems cumbersome, but that's why we are 3 yards off in the second half.
No I counted one of those as a two-yard gain when it was a negative-two. I hate how they do those boxes as well and put the yardage before loss first.

Gunter vs Celina
in High School Sports
Posted
I'm not saying they won't have to play up. They were supposed to play Brock and Brock backed out. They tried with Franklin to do a neutral site and it didn't work out. They have tried to play other 4A Division II teams in North Texas and they won't
My point in my response is you can't have it either way -- you can't bash them for playing people they probably don't have a chance against because the alternative is they would have back-to-back bye weeks.
And I'm sick of all the enrollment talk for five-plus years. The numbers are what they are, if they weren't then they wouldn't be. File a complaint with the UIL if you have proof there's wrongdoing.
I take up for them in the paper? I'd love to know how -- all I do is cover them and what they have done. A team that went back-to-back undefeated titles needs no one taking up for them.
