Popular Post BandFan95 Posted October 31, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 8 minutes ago, Miyazuu said: It was mentioned by a waxahachie parent/member that UIL supposedly allows for a margin of error within 2-3 seconds. Apparently, waxahachie was just under those two seconds, allowing for them to remain in the competition. If that's true, it's probably an unspoken clause that UIL doesn't mention to avoid abuse or it's a case by case basis dependent on how the higher ups are feeling that day. I'm not sure where you're idea of "adding CTJ to finals as 15th place" is coming from. Adding a program a finalist spot and keeping a band who went 2 seconds over are very different magnitudes. Respectfully, and or course my own opinion, CTJ not making finals isn't very shocking. Their show and their performance is good but this entire season it felt like a strong performance from another band could knock them over, and that's what seemed to happen. Plus, UIL doesn't seem to favor their show style, we can see this from previous year results. They cut a minute or so away to preshow because the show is made for a BOA circuit. I'll also add that in years past, they have been lax at the state competitions when it comes to time. It isn't helpful to the kids for us fans to say that anyone was ROBBED. We aren't the judges. We also don't know what happened behind the scenes. For all we know, the clock at the dome was off and all the fodder about Waxahatchie being DQ'ed was just that..fodder. Congrats to all those bands who made finals. Way to go CTJ, Westwood with very little rest, and Dripping Springs for repping Area D so very well by being the next bands out. I have no doubt that they will work even harder this week to be ready for BOA on Friday.

BandFan50 Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 I feel like with Vandegrift performing first, a lot of amazing programs back to back in the top half, and Marcus having a performance time closer to the end we could see Marcus win another 6A gold medal!

Miyazuu Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 It's probably been asked a hundred times but- will it be the same set of judges for finals?

crunchycookie3 Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 Really shocked at the placements for the AM bubble bands who had EXTREMELY good runs. I really thought Bell was going to be a lock after a run like that and hearing many of the afternoon groups, and was very surprised to see Wylie and Timber Creek so low! Hoping they fare better at BOA SA on Saturday. JazzRun 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised too since they essentially tied Dripping Spring Saturday in Waco to see them drop so much after a great run.

Even 20th place for that show would have felt criminally underscored! Regardless of placement, Wylie students gave one of the best runs of the day, and definitely inspired many on these forums.

Dripping Springs has been a UIL powerhouse for UIL and has only recently made the change to be a more BOA focused band.

Pearland's music ensemble scores would be an example of this. 25th in terms of content so compared to the field not exceedingly difficult. The 4th in achievement is saying they performed that more conservative repertoire nearly perfectly. All in that judges opinion of course. lost, TromboneW, HornBlorgis9000 and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
