Completely different situation. Not really, at the end of the day schools that opt up or Alice last realignment wanted a better geographic district to benefit them in some way. All the CC-area schools got the shaft after UIL messed up big time with a completely illogical alignment. While UIL won't fix its mistakes through complaining. EVERYONE in the 3 affected districts agreed to fix it. So that tells you how big of a mistake UIL made, and that the complaints were warranted. Opting up just because you want to keep your schools together is weak, especially when they all come from Region 4. It isn't hypocritical or unreasonable to want UIL to ban opt-ups between divisions, especially since it is for just one sport. As Hound has said, what is the point of having divisions if the opt ups completely throw off the numbers? It also wouldn't be unreasonable to have a geographic waiver that could be applied for when turning in snapshot numbers. Not only should UIL keep the current post-realignment appeals process, it should also allow a school the opportunity to appeal to a higher division using the same procedures.

Alice was put in a district which would have resulted in 7 hour round trip drives in some situations and it wasn't necessary. You don't know what the hell you are talking about, you're just trying to win an argument.

You don't know what the hell you are talking about, you're just trying to win an argument. I'm simply pointing out that schools opt up for legit reasons just like Alice and Calallen wanted to switch districts for a legit reason. But yet you are against other teams doing what is best for them.

If they didn't opt up they would still be playing local anyway. There was no reason for them to opt up. Nonsense like that shouldn't be allowed.

Bunch of crybabies in here geez. Always something to complain about. The mean UIL won't let the state game be played anywhere but North texas, the mean UIL shouldn't allow opt ups except for hardship cases, the mean UIL shouldn't allow powerhouse teams with DISD or FWISD. Get y'all some wine for all this injustice. Aledo has it easy being close to a major metro area. Plenty of teams to be paired with for districts, with MINIMAL travel compared to other areas. The State Championships and late round playoff games in your backyard EVERY year. Then you want to come on here and call others crybabies. Just be thankful you have it so easy and everything is handed to Aledo on a silver platter. Just worry about the entitled attitude of the Aledo Alums like yourself and let the grownups discuss our issues. You always like to say if someone doesn't like what you post they can Ignore it. Follow your own advice. Your Ego and elitist attitude is showing. Ego is the anesthesia that deadens the pain of stupidity. Youre so full of ****. How is everything so easy and everything handed to Aledo on a silver platter? How do I have entitled attitude? You turn arguments into something about Aledo when Aledo has nothing to do with the subject. You're certainly not a grown up complaining like you usually do. Grow a sack and get over it.

So more than the team asking thinks it's legit. People that make the decisions think it's legit.

But yet you are against other teams doing what is best for them. Like Cochino noted, many of the opt ups are doing it so their schools can stay in all in one district when it's a good possibility if they would have gone D2, a local district or at the very least a geographical friendly district would have been on the table anyway. And I bet at the end of the day when some of these opt ups were requested, it was overlooked it was for football only. These opt ups indeed hurt the purpose of the split division format especially since you have schools in the upper part of the D1 bracket who will probably turn in 6A numbers in 2020 and a number of them will exceeded it as soon as next year in the growth areas.

The teams in CCISD are going to be forced to play CCMetroplex Football.My advice to coach Rhoades is to schedule non District gams away from CCMetroplex and gain knowledge from other teams. GP has been scheduling EL Campo and might add a School from suburbs of Austin . If CPTimberwolves has a game to fill go for it.

Aledo doesnt have near the travel of schools located on other areas. That's fact. You can try to sugar coat it all you want. Calhoun travels farther in 4 weeks than Aledo does all year. And I still make it to most of the games. Non district and District.And while I have posted the distances you have never heard me complain about it other than it would be a long drive or late night. You want to see if I have a sack. Come find out.
