This is ridiculous, last years turnover was high as well (in the 40s) and many of those turned over again this year.

Is this the highest you have seen Leman? If so, what is your opinion on all the movement/ changes?

Utopia is east of Leakey and west of Medina. I don’t know if they ever had sixman football but in the 1990’s the entire graduating class of 6 girls made “The Wall Street Journal” because the lowest average grade was like 97.5 for the entire 4 years of High School.
I don’t think Utopia is a very good prospect.
I’m Just saying........

Utopia played 6 and 8 man in the 50's and early 60's. The last game I have seen a score for was in 1963 with LaPryor

Hey Leman, you got any information about those Utopia Buffalos on the sixman gridiron?
Next time I’m up there I’m going to look up some old timers I know and get the scoop!

There's very little Leman or I have been able to find on Utopia's football, other than they tended to have mediocre teams almost every year. No paper ever covered them at all.

I used to have an old boss from Houston (great guy, RIP) that had a hunting lease in Utopia. Back in the 70s, before cell phones and internet, he'd have to send his boss (the regional VP) his schedule with a telephone contact (hotel, etc.) even when on vacation. He and three or four buddies had a primitive cabin on the lease; I remember lots of great stories he would tell of hunting camp.
When he sent his monthly schedule during deer season (including vacation for the hunting trip to Utopia), he put "Utopia, No phone" and sent it in.
His Reg. VP was in town to meet with him a few days later and the VP threw the schedule back at my boss, saying "I don't want to hear about Utopia, Shangra-La, or wherever you are, I want to know how I can reach you." My boss calmly said, "I go hunting in Utopia, Texas. I guess I could get the phone number of the guy who lives on the ranch, but we don't really go up to the main house while we're there." The VP said, "There's no such place as Utopia." Upon which, my boss pulled out a highway map (you know, the original hard-copy GPS for the younger set on line) and pointed out the location of Utopia. The VP went off in a huff.

Been hunting in that area since the ‘80’s myself. Yep it’s there. Several years ago the movie “ Seven Days in Utopia” with Robert Duval was filmed there. Really good movie but didn’t enjoy a lot of coverage because it was “a Christian” movie. It’s about a young pro golfer that blows a lead in a major tournament and goes on a road trip to get away from everything. He comes to a “T” intersection on a country highway and has to make a decision to go right or left. It turns out to be a life changing decision.

They probably will cancel the game and find a TAPPS team to play
