Upcoming UIL Meetings


Recommended Posts

Hate the 4 teams advancing particularly in districts that have 6 teams or less. Heck, if this starts next season, then 4 of the 5 teams in 20-3A (Carthage, Center, Diboll, Huntington and Jasper) will advance to playoffs. That's ridiculous!!


Also saw where they will be voting on limiting basketball and baseball to 2 tourneys (not 3) and 21 total games played before playoffs. Do not like that and not sure coaches will like that as well.

[b]One positive may be that atleast some of the coaches will keep their jobs by making the playoffs as 4th place team[/b]. Don't know if it will have any bearing on that or if that's usually at the 4a and 5a levels?
[/quote]not in football crazy towns of 3A schools. Make a 4th place finish several years straight with zero or 1 win in the playoffs each year at a school like Carthage or Abilene Wylie and i bet the coach is fired.

big surprise.  ::)  [b]they want everyone in the playoffs.[/b]  Wouldn't be surprised if they give you a state championship for winning your district if this keeps up!
[/quote] Indiana does that i believe in football or basketball, i forget which one but everybody gets a playoff spot. makes the season void IMO.

BG, is Carthage 4A?  I Thought they were in the district with Jasper which is 3A.  Also, is seems that Abilene Wylie is also 3A - with a record of 6 - 0 and 3 - 0 - is also 3A.  In 3A only 3 advance to the play-offs.  I'm not
understanding your post.????? ???

It does keep athletes in class. They miss too much instruction time already. It seems that, for most sports, the UIL's proposed changes gave opportunities to make up the tournament with matches scheduled for times outside the school day. As a teacher, I HATE that spring sports pull so many kids out of class for so many days.

I do agree with the sentiments expressed on this thread about 4 teams going to playoffs. It is ridiculous for 4 teams out of 5 or 6 teams to make the playoffs.

Don't like it.  It is already watered down. Why not keep it simple.  1st and 2nd in each district and the current classifications.  I don't like the whole Div 1 and Div 2 for the small school/big school.  If you are 3A, you are 3A.  You end up with 10 (i know the number is not accurate) different state champs in football???  Keep it simple UIL.

I'm disregarding your "went above your head" [i]insult[/i] and repeat my statement:  I'm not understanding your post?  Nor do I understand your reply.  Can you clarify both, please?
