Highland Park will totally dominate this district!! After that, Tyler and Lufkin have a great shot of making the play-offs!!

But they won’t get the calls that they get in their home stadium. When they don’t play at home they get penalized more then at home

Sorry, Lufkin really got screwed in this deal for the 200 mile plus mile travel trips in 7-5A DI, when they could have easily placed Lufkin South in district 9-5A DI or 11-5A DI, and traveled just 90-130 miles instead. Not great for Tyler either, but they are much closer to DFW than Lufkin, and Cleburne, Joshua and Burleson are all directly South of Ft Worth.  No where close to Lufkin, anyone checked a map on that one?, someone at the UIL has a misconception of time and space between Lufkin and those schools. You can bet your bottom dollar too, that HP, Cleburne, Joshua and Burleson, even Midlothian, don't want to travel to Lufkin to play.

I don’t think it is right to take tyler away from Mesquite seeing that they are right up the street. I can see that there will be no fans at most of these games. There will be no football atmosphere at all.

So Tyler high and lufkin lose  Longview from district but gain highland Park 😅

No problem, not much difference, except HP has not yet formed their phycological block over Lufkin like Longview has done over Quick and staff. You guys get to play DeSoto in first couple of rounds, no cake walk either.!

Hey Pack. Lee didn't bow out to playing Longview. They are in the same district. Lol. You meant to say JT. I saw that you wrote that on the Lufkin website.

Welcome to what rural schools go through year in and out. If the coaches can come to an agreement there's plenty of pitstops in between to make use of some decent stadiums.

  • cujoforlife changed the title to The new District 7-5A D1 football Thread

Glad to see this news from Matt Stepp. Hope they can work out something respectable, even 11-5A DI looks like a possibility if they move Crosby from 11-5A DI in with their rival Barbers Hill in 9-5A DI. Then Lufkin could possibly move into 11-5A DI.  Don't care which district, either one will do over driving my life away going North.
