That is the same for all schools regardless. Open enrollment is irrelevant. It does help stock up the lower grades.

Admitting a student to the school does not make them eligible for varsity sports. To be eligible they must live in the district and go through the PAPF process. Is that your understanding?

You cannot "get recruits in every year". They have to sit out a year unless they go through the exact same process that every other district goes through. "Open enrollment" is irrelevant in the UIL process.

There is no team that "cant practice". Worst case scenario is to start practice at 4:00-4:30.

I am shocked at some of the programs that have upended their entire process without understanding the actual impact.

Open enrollment schools play within their normal classification. Open enrollment does not impact UIL eligibility. Just because they enroll does not mean they are eligible for varsity sports. If they live outside the district boundaries they are likely to sit out a year.

Don’t know the circumstances for Miller but I am certain of the numbers I mentioned for DLs.

I keep up with it somewhat and have been privy to the conversations with current recruits. Baylor specifically said $300k range for DLs. Another similar SEC school said $500k for DLs.

The current actual temperature in Orange is 94. WBGT is still at 86.0 as of 1:09.

At this very minute (12:50): WBGT 86.0 in Orange, 87.5 in San Augustine.

Not much. Generally the same climate less some of the gulf breeze and a little bit hotter inland.

No offense, and I am sure you have good information but I will defer to the Baylor coach on this one. FYI, some similar schools have offered $500k to the same level recruits.

Just because they have open enrollment does not mean a player can play the first year he arrives. Still has to follow UIL transfer guidelines the same as if it were closed enrollment.

If a player makes $300k + per year, what will he be in 4 years? Having earned >$1.2 million? Maybe Baylor coaches are lying to recruits?

I have monitored it with the HeatSafe app and an electronic monitor from one of the recommended vendors. Both the app and the device have been very close (within a point or two). Looks to me that as long as you are not practicing in the middle of the day you will be able to have a relatively normal practice. It starts to drop rapidly around 4:00 pm. Keep in mind that the temperature and heat index are not the same thing. I have seen the temp at 95-98 and the WBGT well below the danger zone of 92. Yesterday the WBGT got up to 88.5.
