They're are reigning 4A state champs! Johnson is not going to 6A Area D this year. They will be forgoing it like Bowie did last year.

Yes it’s hard with Argyle because this is their first BOA year, however with that being true and them joining the 5A powerhouses, both in UIL and BOA, there’s a pretty big difference between 4A and 5A, no matter who good you are, but they are Argyle, but I think right now, I have Lovejoy winning 2A, and visual/GE, and argyle winning Visual, and both in finals. and it looks like the 6A schools that have been said to come or Johnson, Rockhill, Waxahachie and KC so new prediction: Leander CP Rouse Henny Mcallum Aledo CH BC Lovejoy Argyle Georgetown Richland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, sadly with such a top heavy set of amazing bands, Glenn is just sitting in the back for right now. I do think however that they will get into that groove in a couple years and move on up and be up there with their fellow LISD band buddies.

I really dont see it, I agree 4a is very different to 5A, that being said Lovejoy didn't even make it to state. They got 9th at Area B compared to Argyle being 8 time state and reigning champions.

And I know that we fully rely on past contest, but Ik 2019, Argyle competed at the HEB marching contest. Now I know this is pretty early season, but they were beat by many 5A bands that Lovejoy was way over that year(Reedy,The Colony). And another example from last year that was a week I believe before 5A area week was the birdville marching contest. They competed against many 5A programs from Area F and 6A from area C. Some programs like Burleson, who didn’t make finals and Brewer, 9th at area F finals placed ahead of Argyle. Now i know this contest doesn’t use BOA scoring, but even at HEB where they do use it, they struggled it seemed. You can even look at the raw score of the bands who beet Argyle compares to Lovejoys at area finals, and you will see Lovejoys numbers are pretty significantly higher. And they literally competed with them in 2018 snd the Golden Triangle contest and won. Now last year was rough for Lovejoy, and obviously I did go there which plays an impact. But I honestly believe they can take 2A snd possibly make finals here. Good night, I have closed my case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say Argyle is really good with adapting to new conferences, and I feel that with them moving into 5A, they will build up to be one of the top 5A groups in no time. Now I'm not saying it will happen since Princeton moved up in 2018 and they were a top 4A school and now are always at the bottom of the pack in Area. This will be an interesting event and I can't wait to see how they both do! Tubalord11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I’m confused about M&G Johnson’s BOA classification. I know it’s possible to be a 6A size school in UIL and still be just a 3A band in BOA (think Leander in ‘16 & ‘18), but is that the case for Johnson? Just curious… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Band_dad_of_2 Posted September 28, 2022 Report Share Posted September 28, 2022 I know nothing about Blue Valley SW so I was looking at their site. They don't have Waco on their calendar.

Popular Post MikeKyu Posted September 28, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 28, 2022 I am sad that I am going to miss this contest. My brother in-law is a composer. We are going to see his movie in NYC with my sister and him. Solid line up for this show and it should be a great contest.
