I have a question, why does Fox Southwest have all the Oklahoma basketball games but Texas UIL only has one game which is the 5A game airing at midnight?

Maybe the only other options Fox Sports Oklahoma has is the Yee-Haw Calling League? You know, like in Arkansas, where they have to fill time with How to Decorate Your Double-Wide before you Marry Your Cousin shows...

I think that a lot of Class A folks wish that someone would annex Triple A Academy.

I must respond to UIL executive director Charles Breithaupt’s quote in the ARN March 9 edition concerning Triple A Academy: “It’s created quite a controversy ... Most of our 1A schools are rural schools where students go to school in yellow buses and pickup trucks, rather than metro buses. That’s distasteful to the traditional 1A schools.”
Your quote and apparent attitude are distasteful. The controversy, Mr. Breithaupt, isn’t about the form of transportation, nor is it rural vs, city schools. The resentment is directed toward you and the UIL for allowing charter schools to compete with traditional schools. It’s a bad idea. The boos heard when Triple A left the court in Austin were directed at you, Mr. Breithaupt, and the UIL. Let’s be frank, Mr. Breithaupt, the boos and criticisms received are coming from more than 1A traditional schools. The entire state is at odds with your decision. It’s a bad idea!
If you don’t perceive the issue better than your quote indicated, perhaps you need to leave the UIL and Austin, your choice of transportation — yellow school bus or metro bus — to pursue, as they say, other opportunities. Who knows Mr. Breithaupt, maybe you can enroll in a charter school that specializes in executive training. I hope my thoughts are not too distasteful. It’s a bad idea.
