Cumberland taking alot of kids too. The Cumberland High has 600 students. I would bet 400 of those kids would probably be at Legacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming all three schools had guys in Football at that time. Are Legacy's best players in the football program too? Nope. Matt Wade (district offensive poty), Jaylon Spencer, Will Mitchell, Teon Erwin, Nate Noland....these were TL's best players....none of them play football. All played against LV too. Outside of Liebengood and Marco Washington, LV's best players all played football....including the best player on the team...Jalen Hale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoned to Whitehouse, but they refuse to send their kid there. Too far...and other things. Willing to bet a healthy chunk of Cumberland kids would be at Whitehouse too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People think I am crazy but I guarantee that within the next 5 years, Cumberland will be the largest private school in East Texas due to where it is and the forward thinking of the admin. If they get seriously committed to any athletic program, you could see the east texas version of Plano Prestonwood or Midland Chrisitan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know if you'll ever see a Prestonwood or MC in ETX....the public school sports in Plano and Midland are struggling so much...PW and MC are legit getting a good chunk of the quality athletes because of it. But I see what you're saying. On a side note, the younger sibling of the family member that goes to Cumberland is one of the best 11U players in Tyler. Will be a Foster Dragon this fall.

He's in the 99th percentile in height (projected to hit somewhere between 6-5 and 6-8) and has a crazy wingspan. Physical and aggressive. Straight A's in Hudson Pep's GT classes. Unfortunately his father is a bit problematic, kind of a head case. But no worries: King knows how to handle him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next highest is 204 from Whitehouse ISD, then 82 from Chapel Hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANTI Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 TEA has Royse City at 2,048 in October 2020. They were at 1,904 in 2019. They have a pretty good sized freshman class coming in this fall too, its almost inevitable that they are moving up. Remember, when realignment cutoff initially came out, Royse City was placed in 5A DI because the cutoff was initially 1900. But then the UIL went back and raised it to 1922. North Forney was at 1,894 in 2019. They're up to 2,043 now...grew even more than Royse City did. Both will no doubt have 5AD1 numbers. Forney is still a ways off. Mesquite ISD recently rezoned their entire district....West Mesquite grew quite a bit. They had over 700 freshmen in 2020. May have to actually watch a move to 6A but I think they stay down by a hair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An increase of almost any amount in the cutoff with a slight drop in enrollment could send them to the Greenville/Royse CIty district. Doesn't seem like Sherman is going down at all.

ANTI Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 I can easily see the 6A cutoff line going up at least 75-100 with the way schools around the state are growing. Other key statewide 5A D1 news: Aledo will have over 2000 kids in the fall, they will definitely move up to 5A D1 and will probably move on to 6A the following alignment. Smithson Valley looks to be dropping down from 6A...the new high schools in Comal ISD are having an effect on the enrollment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
