Title is really all there is to it... I have been pointed to a few FB groups but so far everyone likes the post but no takers... So when you have some bigger props especially are there good places besides the FB pages to share/post? Our school has a few and I volunteered to see if we could get these out there so maybe someone else could repurpose at a far less time/cost. Thanks!

Yeah I think last seasons show just wasn’t as strong but 22& 23 were amazing

Don’t get me wrong, I love McKinney North, I’m just keeping my options open. I think they can make finals, but I’m definitely a person who knows anything can happen. My mindset is BlueCoats 2024 😂(change is everything)

From what Ive been seeing about North, I doubt they drop below 11th since they're really pushing to maintain state finalist level, I don't see them dropping below finals, but their ceiling is incredibly vague right now. I think their absolute ceiling is 7th, but 10th is where they will settle if everything stays the same as last year which will NOT be the case for any season haha

I noticed a thread hasn't been made for this contest, so figured I'd start one. Brock has it on our calendar, but might be prelims only because of a conflict with our homecoming dance.

Sadly no I’m 99% sure

6A: Flower Mound 5A: Rouse/Cedar Park 4A: Celina 3A: Mineola 2A: Rivercrest 1A: Irion County I think with flomo going to grand nats and then winning san antonio last year, they’ll finally get gold again. I think it’s closer than ever between Cedar park and rouse so I could see it going either way.

👀

Also, I could genuinely see Bridgeland win the SMBC in 5-6 years hear me out

Celina has on their calendar “McKinney And/Or Princeton Contest”. Possibly an interesting addition 👀

I think the thing with Rock Hill was that they were very hyped up to make finals last year. I’d say they’re on the bubble to make finals again, but they got as good a shot as anyone competing.

6A: Hebron 5A: Cedar Park 4A: Panther Creek 3A: Mineola 2A: Ganado 1A: Cross Plains

I like this Pre-Season Contest Predictions! I could do like what everyone else is doing but I'm gonna do my own thing and predict all the finalists for each Class. I expect this to be a long post lol. Using Bullet Points because they take less room rather than listing all the bands on individual rows. 6A: Flower Mound Vandegrift Hebron Marcus Vista Ridge The Woodlands Ronald Reagan Pearland Cedar Ridge Bridgeland Round Rock Keller Waxahachie Timber Creek Coppell (15th/First Out) 5A: Rouse (ROUSE HOUSE BABY, IT'S TIME!) Cedar Park (Sorry! Still love yall!!!) Wakeland Leander Lone Star Argyle Aledo Burleson Centennial Hendrickson Friendswood Lake Belton Roma Richland (13th/First Out) 4A: Panther Creek Celina China Springs Davenport Sulphur Springs Calallen Gatesville North Lamar Farmersville Canyon Lumberton (11th/First Out) (*Trust me, I think their show is a huge turning point for them) 3A: Mineola Redwater Raymondville Atlanta Clifton Whitesboro Cameron Yoe Holliday Hitchcock Winnsboro Howe (11th/First Out) 2A: Rivercrest Ganado Sundown Bosquesville Tenaha Valley Mills Lockney Panhandle (8th/First Out) 1A: Cross Plains Irion County Menard Knox City Water Valley Eden Claude Petersburg (8th/First Out)

6A: Flower Mound 5A : Rouse 4A: Panther Creek 3A: Raymondville 2A: Ganado 1A: Cross Plains

1. Ceader Ridge 2. McNeil 3. Westlake 4. James Bowie 5. Timber Creek 6. Westwood 7. LD Bell 8. Wylie East 9. Hendrickson 10. J.E.T 11. Hutto 12. SFA My prediction will change like 20 times after the first competitions, but this is what I got so far.

6A: Vista Ridge 5A: Rouse 4A: Panther Creek 3A: Mineola 2A: Rivercrest 1A: no clue

6A: Vandegrift 5A: Cedar Park 4A: Panther Creek 3A: Mineola 2A: Rivercrest 1A: Irion County

China Spring's head director is moving to Highland Park also, i dont think it will affect China Spring however, since they have always had a strong band

i might sound a lil crazy for this but 6A: Vandegrift 5A: Rouse 4A: Panther Creek 3A: Mineola 2A: Rivercrest 1A: Irion County

I think Rock Hill will be back in here, maybe

1. Cedar Ridge 2. McNeil 3. James Bowie 4. Westlake 5. Timber Creek 6. Westwood 7. LD Bell 8. Hendrickson 8. SFA 9. Wylie East 10. JET 11 Hutto 12. Lake Ridge lots of strong groups here, 9-12 could be a lot of groups i think

I think it’s a solid list. My only problem is where to put McKinney North. Assuming they do another Jazz show I think they could fall anywhere from 10th to just outside finals like last year. I feel like it’s a solid list though

My early prediction 1. Marcus 2. Coppell 3. Wakeland 4. Prosper 5. Wylie/Lone Star 6. Lone Star/ Wylie 7. SLC 8. Braswell 9. McKinney High 10. McKinney North 11. Rockwall 12. Lebanon Trail I'll try to update before the contest..... I see a few people disagreeing with this... lol..

LeanderMomma it's the same weekend as BOA Memphis. Whatever shall we do
