Did you know that's actually a Tom Landry Fedora. Tom himself gave coach Allen that Fedora.

This is their first 6A experience..... they've always been 4A/5A... I know coach Allen, he is a great man. Very much like a great friend of mine who introduced me to coach Allen, Bob McQueen, the Temple legendary coach. He would have had 500+ wins had he not retired a while back. Coach Allen is going to retire again soon. He will most likely not catch Danaher. Actually, when 5A was the largest classification Highland Park was in 5A then which would be the equivalent of 6A today.

Yes I know one time they went 5A then sold their soul again to the UIL to drop back down by half a student... but to play devil's advocate, 6a is different than the then 5a. Because at one time 4a was the biggest, so are the same as 6a?, 2a was also the biggest, are they the same as 6a? Of course there was also a time with no classifications, same as 6a? Now my point being just because they were classified at the bottom of then 5A, doesn't necessarily mean that would have been 6A had that been around back then. They would have probably been 5AD1 at that point. Same type of situation back in 2006 with San Marcos, they were the smallest 5A school with just 13 kids over the cut off, in with Westlake, Bowie, Seguin, Austin High, Anderson, Akins, and Bastrop. Had 6A existed they would have been 5AD1.

Actually, when 5A was the largest classification Highland Park was in 5A then which would be the equivalent of 6A today. Yes I know one time they went 5A then sold their soul again to the UIL to drop back down by half a student... but to play devil's advocate, 6a is different than the then 5a. Because at one time 4a was the biggest, so are the same as 6a?, 2a was also the biggest, are they the same as 6a? Of course there was also a time with no classifications, same as 6a? Now my point being just because they were classified at the bottom of then 5A, doesn't necessarily mean that would have been 6A had that been around back then. They would have probably been 5AD1 at that point. Same type of situation back in 2006 with San Marcos, they were the smallest 5A school with just 13 kids over the cut off, in with Westlake, Bowie, Seguin, Austin High, Anderson, Akins, and Bastrop. Had 6A existed they would have been 5AD1. Pre-1980 4A is 6A, just like pre-2014 5A is 6A. Here’s why. Before 2014, Class 5A was the current 6A. All they did was give six-man teams an “A” designation, which moved Class A teams to 2A, and then 2A became 3A, and so forth. Same thing happened to 4A in 1980. All Class B schools were designated Class A schools, which turned A to 2A, then 2A to 3A, then 3A to 4A, and finally 4A to 5A. So we haven’t actually had a truly new classification in decades; we’ve just been creating more districts and, later on, more divisions within the classifications. I guess one could say that the mid 2000’s 5A Highland Park isn’t truly today’s 6A due to current enrollment cutoffs, but let’s remember that the true definition of 6A (old 5A) is that you were one of the largest schools in the state. The cutoffs will gradually go up over time due to growth. If Highland Park was 5A, it’s because they were one of the 225 or so largest schools in the state.
