Numbers

They do not play football and, probably never will. At least that is the consensus of the people I talk to over there.

Some of the old Brock faithful used to say the same thing about football but when all the newbies arrived, they got football up and running. Graford will never see the influx of newbies like Brock experienced and I tend to agree that they will remain basketball only similar to Huckabay. Lots of high school boys playing marbles if they aren't playing basketball.

Several years ago, two brothers, twins, transferred from Graford to Perrin while in JH to play football. They played all through HS. So there may be a few interested in football but at this time not many.

What is funny is I think schools like Huckabay, Graford, McMullen County, Dodd Citiy, and Clyde Eulas of the world would be elite 6 man schools while still also being elite in Basketball still due to the cultures they have at those districts.

I know they dont play football but does anyone know Eulas enrollment?

Texas Tribune shows Eula's 2023-2024 enrollment at 470 students, I assume for 12 grades plus K and pre-K.

I know I am beating a dead horse l, because I know they won't ever play football. But what is Pringle-Morse and Hartley's enrollment at currently?

TEA shows their 2024-25 enrollment in hs was 116.

 

[Coach Cooley]

I heard a rumor that Graford was moving back down to 1A. Has anyone heard this?

They will number is 103.

 

[Bill Spinks]

Fannin County in my opinion should be more of a six-man center of activity. Ector and Dodd City are of that size, and can join Savoy and Fannindel.

Ivanhoe Sam Rayburn is big enough now to play 11-man but talking to their AD a few years ago, there is zero interest from either him or his supe.

 

[Roach]

Any news or info on the enrollments of the missing schools? Sucks to see Fort Hancock so close to being UIL 6man but I guess they will be playing outlaw again. 2 kids over has to stink. Or will the cutoff stay the same with D1? 104 right?

 

[Jones26]

104.5 is the 1A-2A cutoff, and it won’t/shouldn’t change this time around (or we would have heard something.

Ft. Hancock is under that, so they should be placed in a District. I’m guessing with BV, Rankin, and GC.

 

[Blue Bird]

Wouldn't Marfa be in that district?

 

[Roach]

Marfa will/should be D2 now

@Mike can you update the numbers for the missing ones
I see Benavides, Ranger, Savoy, Burkeville, no Fort Hancock, or Fruitvale. I forgot to see if Veribest is on there. Just wondering what the cutoff would be with those added in your list.

As soon as I get home I can see if I can find those numbers then get them added.

 

[CoachCompton]

Fruitvale 92, Savoy 80

 

[D.F.G.]

Still need:
Benavides
Bruni
Burkeville
Gholson
High Island
Knippa
Luders-Avoca
Pawnee
Prairie Valley
Penelope
Ranger
Rocksprings

 

[Roach]

Reading this entire thread over again it seems Knippa has d1 numbers considering one poster said they may go 11man with how many they have in JH. We all know Lueders Avoca usually has pretty low numbers. Not sure about the other teams

 

[oldfolks]

Coach Clutch reported Rocksprings unofficial 54

I just looked back through and I believe numbers are entered for all the schools that have been entered. That said, I'll have to code in an exception for Fort Hancock. Should be able to get that done early tomorrow morning. Since they're a correctly active team, and not listed as a UIL team, the system is ignoring them from the enrollment page.
