Novice used the veer in 2008.

I didn't realize that I was whining. I only asked a simple question. I only mentioned Abilene because it was there for so long, but if I remember correctly it was up to the coaches from the respective schools to choose the location, and Abilene was usually pretty close to a half-way point...

Has attendance risen since moving to Arlington? It seems like more actual six-man fans would be able to travel to Abilene, but I would like to know.

I tried using your calculator to determine the best choince between Merkel and Tulia and it gave all stadiums in East Texas. Think your machine is broken

Here is what I've got from the schools that could have chosen to play 6 man instead of 11 man: D'Hanis (104) 3-7 (win against Runge) Crosbyton (103) 2-8 (win against New Home) Shamrock (100) 3-7 (win against Munday) Hamlin (96) 9-1 (win against New Home and Baird) Bartlett (94) 0-10 New Home...

There would only be byes in football.

I would say that, overall, this would make things less watered down, as it would reduce the number of state champions from 12 to 8.

It's more than just six man vs. eleven. The eleven man players from the smaller schools rarely get looked at by colleges looking to give scholarships either. They mostly watch the 6A and 5A schools. I know that there are exceptions, but as a general rule, that's the way it is.

I had mentioned that Olfen (Who plays six man in Middle school) had turned in high school enrollment numbers. I also notice that Wildorado has turned in numbers. Does anyone know if it is correct that these two schools now have high schools?

I noticed that Olfen turned in numbers to the UIL. Do they have a high school now?

When I coached at Novice, we had a banner hanging on the wall saying that our girls had been the basketball state champions. The date pre-dated the UIL sanctioned girls state championships. Who would know what league existed for girls before the UIL and if any records are available?

I was just wondering how many six-man or six-man sized schools have more than one campus? I know that Knox City, Lueders-Avoca, Aspermont, and Eula do.
