I have met Dr. Taylor a few times and am thoroughly impressed. If there is a President as supportive of programs like him in the SLC I would be shocked.

1-0. 4-2 win in the season opener. Don't worry Spidersal, they will lose a close one at some point and you and I can call for a regime change from the President all the way to all adjunct faculty. College baseball is here!!

Highlights?? I need college baseball and they aren't home until March! That's not a highlight, but at least baseball is coming soon. LU fans will enjoy the HCU transfer at 2nd base. He is simply fun to watch play.

Does this set up a must win for EC against Buna next week?

They sure were, didnt realize that. Out on the northwest side of the region..as much as people love to hammer the UIL...not sure how they could have avoided it. What district do you move without making that district travel through Cy Fair to their region?

I was thinking that very thing about the state championship possibility. The splitting of a school district in to separate athletic districts is quite common, but not sure I have ever seen separate regions. Nightmare scenario for UIL, highly improbable though....2 fairly new 6A schools with no alumni base to speak of meeting in Arlington with both having quite a distance to travel. This scenario keeps happening and the nightmare could become a reality.

If I'm reading things correctly, the Cypress Fairbanks schools are split in different regions. If so, how common is that? They are in District 16 and 17.

No more guys masquerading as a woman in a bikini? Whatever will we do?

Finebaum sounds like he could cry discussing this on the SEC Network. Several people he has spoke with almost sound like they are discussing his passing. It's really interesting to see and hear.

If you truly have been places where kids are willing to go through off season workouts without playing a sport instead of taking a PE class, you have come across some darn tough kids. Unless, you have been at a place or places with such limited coaching staffs there was no real off season except in the Spring. Now, if that's the case I can see kids pulling that stunt and understand your concern.

Fully understand your position and actually agree. My gripe is not allowing students in the athletic period because the student doesn't play football and/or basketball. Discipline problems, grade problems, quitting in the past, etc....heck no...you aren't in the program young man.

Coached at 3 schools. 5A had a athletics period for football only and other period for other sports so it didn't arise. Other 2 were a 3A that allowed all in, but we only had about 12-15 non-football in the period and only 1 did not play any l sports and the other was the 3A I mentioned. The one kid, freshman, which I dont think surprises you, was not allowed in athletic period the next year. Have you seen a situation with that many kids in an athletic period that didn't play a sport?

As a former coach, I actually do that very thing. Again, we will disagree about the elimination of kids from athletic class periods.

Not sure why the air quotes. It's what I do. Not being confrontational are a smart butt. I work in a teacher certification program as a college educator. Kinesiology to be more specific.

Thank you for liking my sarcasm.

Thank you. Guess I will resign my position tomorrow and stop sending teachers and coaches into the world. I apologize for my ignorance.

My resume is not the concern. The elitist attitude of leaving kids out of programs is wrong. The school I will not point out. Plus, according to you "many" don't allow it, so why point out the one? Several allow all athletes in are successful across the board doing so. So, there is another way. For the most part it's the anti baseball AD. It forces kids into football if they wish to lift and get fit during the school hours. We will simply disagree as you will not change my mind nor I yours.

It wasn't a riddle and all that do it are in the wrong.

Got one for you while we discuss fairness. There's a 3A school in the area that only allows certain male sport athletes in the boy's athletic period. In other words, you must play certain sports or get you physcial education credit elsewhere and workout on your own. One of the most unethical things I have witnessed. Aa a college educator that teaches pre-service teachers/coaches, as a high school athlete I would not have been allowed in the aforementioned unnamed schools athletic period.

All athletes need weight/resistance training. Heck, college bowling teams are assigned a strength and conditioning coach. The only sport i can think of that uses no or minimal weight training is gymnastics. That is simply due to the nature of the sport having events that are by design resistance training.

If the "hold" occurred once the quarterback released the ball, PI was the correct call.

Pronoun child and "his" hoodie really was cute. Thanks for the laugh.

Thanks for the post with the video!

[Hidden Content] Had the pleasure of being on a teaching and coaching staff for 3 years with Todd. Simply stated, in my 25 plus years in education, there is not a person I respected more. God Bless his family.

If I read things correctly the Michigan AD is on the committee. How will he try to influence things? Maybe nothing at all and simply vote. Maybe try to push for the final 2 teams that matchup better for Michigan. Maybe, my guess if he influences anything at all. is trying to push for the best on paper first round matchup. Hey, Jim, who you want in round 1? I'll do my best. Thank you, Bud.
