It's leap year folks.
The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have..... Vince Lombardi
All six football appeals were denied today...
Not surprised. Would have taken too many changes.
My hope is that the Panthers and the Texans can both beat the joke teams so badly that it sends them back to where they came from (peewee)... I have heard that Coach Blount plans to never let off the gas in those games.... Like Refugio style. To the point of 100 to 0... I'm all for it! When the losers start to complain about poor sportsmanship I'll just point my finger right at the UIL

That's fair, they do provide a solid platform that allows schools to compete at a consistently high level... (except in this instance)... in our situation I just dont see how they can defend placing all 4 of the worst 4a teams in the same district. Not to mention they span 2 entirely different cities. It seems to me that they decided to just consolidate the terrible and not dilute any extra districts... what will they do when the miserable teams decide to not even participate next season? We will see...

I saw today what Wimbo/Navarro proposed to the UIL. It would have put Gonzales in a very tenuous position of having to nearly completely redo the schedule. Apache would probably have ended up with only 8 or 9 games the next two years.
Truth. I have friends who have coached in other states where their version of theUIL is weak, and the private schools have taken over those states because of it.
The UIL made a mistake here and I suspect they know they did, but fixing it now would inconvenience too many other schools. Like I said earlier, I think Wimberley and Navarro knew their appeal had very little chance of being granted, and the main purpose of the appeal was to let the UIL know of the problem so they didn't repeat the mistake in 2022.
