  1. They set the cutoffs in order to manage the number of schools in each classification. In theory, a school could add enrollment over the two year period and still drop from 6A to 5A if the cutoff line moves up.
  2. The opt up is usually a decision to stay with other schools within their school district. The district communicates that choice to the UIL ahead of time so they know who would be opting up when they are looking to set the cutoffs.
  3. That's how it works. The UIL sets the cutoffs to try to balance the # of schools in each classification. They have to take into account the schools who will opt up and then they set the cutoffs.
  4. So, the Shoeless Cadets? ๐Ÿ˜‚
  5. I believe those were all under Rodney Klett.
  6. Vista got 2nd overall. I'm assuming that Coppell won.
  7. I think maybe I'll start referring to this weekends competition as SGN - The Sorta Grand Nats
  8. I love Avon for making that trip down. GNats is never going to move. Our only hope is to have BOA elevate th status of SASR. I very much doubt that happens. Is it fair? No. Does that matter? No.
  9. 2 paragraphs. 20 seconds. What will you do with all that time you saved? ๐Ÿ˜„
  10. The numbers thing is also very much a chicken and egg sort of deal. It's tempting to just look at the numbers and conclude that having a bigger band helps you place better, but I think it goes deeper than that. A school/district that puts a strong emphasis on music, and backs that up with resources and quality instructors, will naturally draw more kids from the school's enrollment. So, in effect, some of those bands are bigger BECAUSE they are good.
  11. That sounds like an insult. You should apologize. ๐Ÿ˜„
  12. No bands are required to participate at any level by UIL. Their districts or schools may require it, but the UIL does not.
