Had a death in the family and needing to pass this weekend. 2 tickets in Section 2 on aisle (just a couple of rows down, right at the gate 1 entrance). Let me know if interested / want to make an offer and I can send Venmo and electronically transfer tickets.

Have you came across any cool polos or pullovers yet? Maybe I’m not lookin at the right places, but everything I’ve seen has been a little disappointing up to this point.

If you’ve come across anything exciting, drop some links.

Good troll by them to go all white on our celebrate cotton game lol

Both Coronado and Frenship got calls this afternoon. I hope they fully prosecute the losers. Nothing found so far at Frenship.

So my kids are still a couple years out from school but figure I’d start asking around where RRS is sending their kids.

I’m sure this thread will devolve at some point but I’ll run that risk. Please keep the voucher crap to yourselves as this was going to be a question regardless.

I’m in Allen and hate the ISD structure. Our neighborhood elementary is solid according to so many neighbors who have kids there tho so think that could still be an option too.

But would like to look at some alternatives.

Anyone have kids at Imagine Academy(charter school)?
Legacy Christian?
McKinney Christian?
Other driveable options from Allen you’d recommend?

Hey fellas,

I'm a coach for my daughter's U8 soccer team. I don't know if it's maturity, age, ability or what but we're having the HARDEST time getting the girls to spread out and not bunch up on the ball (basically stay in position). They're tiring themselves out running all over the field because everyone's chasing the ball, and moving up to U10 next year where the field is bigger. We're also having issues with getting them to run ahead of the girl with the ball in order to receive a pass. Does anyone out there have any tips/tricks/drills I could use to help them spread out and get ahead of the ball?

Also, my daughter is one of the better players on the team and is a natural defender. She just gravitates that way when the ball changes possession. Next year she wants to play goalie (they don't play with one now) so if you have any goalkeeping advice I'd sure appreciate it.

EDIT: I should mention that this is rec league soccer, not academy or club.

I seem to recall there was a Roof Raider at one time. I lived in Houston then.

My son made a fun suggestion. He hates UT like we all do and cannot stand the Actor that walk around, All Right, All Right.


So his idea is to put on the roof from time to time, or on sidelines at important times, BUDDY HOLLY.

I didn’t see this posted on here yet.

Dude accidentally went live on instagram while clapping cheeks yesterday.

The man made sounds that were not human.

OL assistant coach Stephen Hamby being let go was definitely unexpected news today, but the change was made for a variety of reasons, including that Texas Tech feels as if they could upgrade here. It wasn't one specific situation which caused the change but moreso an accumulation of things going back several weeks. Someone else pointed this out in another thread, but during the recent contact period Texas Tech had senior offensive analyst Kirk Bryant on the road recruiting in Hamby's place.

The staff understands how important this position is and will get it right. This isn't the end-all, be-all, but Hamby made $320,000 this season. That's certainly good money for most professions but it had him towards the bottom of the Big 12 offensive line coaches. Don't expect money to be an issue this go around if they find the right candidate.

A few names that we can connect to this job based on previous experiences and/or connections.

... Josh Cochran, Texas Tech, TE's coach

Cochran was a big time OL recruit out of Hallsville high school, Rivals250 kid who signed with Texas. Injuries forced him to retire but he was a talented tackle prospect for sure. He's now the TE's coach at Texas Tech but before arriving in Lubbock was the offensive line coach at Austin Peay. He was also the offensive line GA at Baylor in 2017/18, and was the OL coach at East Texas Baptist prior to that. Could Cochran switch positions and then Tech goes out and gets another TE's coach in his place? I wouldn't say it's the favorite but it's a possibility.

... Randy Clements, North Carolina, OL coach

Clements should be a name familiar to most of you guys as he was at Baylor from 2008-16 under Art Briles where they had a ton of offensive success. Since then he's bounced around a bit with stops at Southeastern University, Houston, Florida State, Ole Miss, UNT and now North Carolina. A native of Wichita Falls, Texas who graduated from SFA, Clements is Texas through and through and would make a lot of sense for a return home. He's 57 years old and made $600,000 at UNC last season.

... Zach Yenser, unemployed (prev. Kentucky), OL coach

An interesting name here as Yenser was just recently let go last week after Kentucky hired Alabama's offensive line coach who was not retained following Nick Saban's retirement. Yenser definitely has the resume. He spent the last two years at Kentucky, prior to that he was with the San Francisco 49ers for three years, SMU in 2018, Kansas from 2015-17, California from 2013-14 and Louisiana Tech before that.

He coached with Texas Tech assistant head coach Kenny Perry for all three years during his stop at Kansas. He was also under Sonny Dykes at both Louisiana Tech and California. Yenser made $650,000 last season but obviously does not currently have a job. Kentucky's offensive coordinator recently got the OC job with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and there are some rumors Yenser could go with him.

... Clay McGuire, Washington State, OL coach

Another name who should be familiar, McGuire played at Texas Tech and was an assistant coach in Lubbock from 2007-2009 and again in 2018. He's now at Washington State after stops at USC (2021) and Texas State (2019/20). McGuire made $500,000 last season. You would think he would welcome the opportunity to come back to West Texas.

I expect there to be more candidates than the four names above, including some I cannot name this second, but that's a solid start. If you remember back to last off-season, Joey McGuire replaced Emmett Jones with Juice Johnson in about 24 hours. I don't know if I expect this search to be over that quickly, but I also wouldn't be surprised if this gets wrapped up in a relatively short order.

From DCTF


To say it has been a difficult start to the 2024 season at Linden-Kildare would be an understatement.

Not only has the 2A Division II program started the season out at 0-2, but in the past 48 hours have gone through not one, but two coaching changes, resulting in superintendent Rex Burks taking over as the interim athletic director and head football coach for at least this week’s matchup against Hughes Springs.

The saga starts for Linden-Kildare on April 29 when the district named Jason Ferguson as their next athletic director and head football coach. Ferguson’s résumé on the field as a coach is excellent, holding a career 57-26 record with stops at DeLeon, Memphis and Shelbyville. Ferguson’s tenure at Shelbyville was cut short halfway through the 2016 season after an arrest.

In Ferguson’s first two games at the helm, the Eagles suffered lopsided defeats at the hands of Paul Pewitt and Colmesneil, getting outscored 89-6. On Monday, Ferguson and Linden-Kildare Consolidated ISD reportedly agreed to part ways. Assistant coach JD Russell was named the interim head coach shortly thereafter.

Fast-forward to Wednesday afternoon, where reports began to circulate that Russell had stepped down from his post and the superintendent Burks would take over for the time being.

Burks does have coaching experience, serving as head coach at Simms Bowie from 1997 to 2001.
Dave Campbell’s Texas Football confirmed that Linden-Kildare intends to play this week’s scheduled game against Hughes Springs.

I know it's cotton day. Is the team also wearing white? Has it been said yet? Sorry if so

I mean, I ain’t mad. There are worse ways to start your day.

I would suggest turning the volume down. It is just audio tho, you can’t see anything but up. Just not sure who’s POV that is.

Micah unfollowed tech fb and deleted all his non nil related post…

Wanted to throw out a recommendation for an incredible place to stay near Crawford, CO. Just before the football season, a few buddies and myself took a road trip through Northern AZ and SW/West Colorado. We decided to look at some airbnbs and stumbled upon a place that looked too good to be true. Well, that placed over delivered. It sits up on a mesa, surrounded by mountains and is a working cattle ranch. We were in the Ranch House on the property that had everything needed, including streaming TV for some pre-season football.

On our way from Page, AZ to this place, we decided we wanted to grill out steaks. I messaged the owner to get some advice and he put some of the beef sells in the fridge at the Ranch House, so it was ready for us when we got there. We also found out he has a store just 20 yards from the house that serves the rural community along the mesa. You can buy beef and many snacks and other goods. All honor system and open 24 hours, just a very thoughtful solution for the community and guest. The ribeyes he provided were outstanding and it was just a level of service that was unbelievable. They will even guide you to where the cattle are at any particular time and hope people will explore the ranch.

Below are some links, if you are looking for a place. Love supporting family owned and run business and hope some of you find it as restful and peaceful as we all did. You can book direct (probably his preference), but I provided airbnb link as well.

Interesting stuff from the OC yesterday. Thoughts?

I am taking seven to the game, but have the need for two more for my grandson and my daughter.

Caught up with the new Texas Tech commit to learn more about his decision. Think y'all will really like some of those quotes about his commitment and his outlook on things.

Sec 105. I'll sell at a good price (I paid about $240)., or, if a "benevolent" situation, e.g. single parent with kid, young couple, etc. I'll make a VERY good deal Two caveats: 1) I'm driving from Allen to LBK Thurs; 2) I've listed on SeatGeek (did that prior to discovering this forum, and don't know if someone accepts it's an automatic thing, or if I need to "accept"). FWIW, I am going to the game, just had an invite from a friend to sit elsewhere.

Who won the debate?
