Orlando Arreola: When will the $UIL$ rotate state HTX,DFW,SATX ? Do the san Antonio, Houston, Austin, south texas schools not have enough pull to make them change. Because this dfw homefield advantage every year just isn't right. And fans and schools have to pay more to drive farther.
Matt Stepp: I dont anticipate any rotation of the state title games unless political pressure is put on the UIL. To be fair, based on the teams who have made the state title games in the past 44 years, AT&T Stadium would be the most central location in 40 of those 44 years, so if you are going to go with the most central site based on who is participating AT&T Stadium is the place.
Ashley Pickle: Has nothing to do with money or “home field advantage” it’s all about the facilities.

Allison Brown: What is really on my mind..........How would someone address Vince Young about that player of the year trophy, when he is in Longview on 02/20/20?
Stepp: At this point that trophy is in such bad shape, we probably wouldn't want him to have it lol
Ish Johnson: Hmmm ??
Ashley: Say “Bro...seriously..go get your stinkin’ trophy”

Tanner Wilson: What are some of the most noteworthy bloopers in either #TXHSFB or Texas College Football History.
Stepp: TXHSFB its gotta be the run away cart at after the 2011 state title games.
Ish: Man…let me brush you up on the ole San Marcos-Lockhart “fumble” debacle from 2016 that I witnessed…or actually, check Danny Davis’ Statesman story on it.

Derek English: What’s the biggest surprise on the the coaching changes so far. Any others you see coming up as well??
Stepp: Brett Sniffin leaving Ridge Point for Belton was a bit of a surprise along with Travis Reeve leaving Cuero to take over at New Caney. There will be plenty of changes post realignment, stay with us at https://www.texasfootball.com/coaching-changes/?ref=nav for all the coaching changes statewide!
Ish: Travis Reeve leaving Cuero is big, but then again he won a title so he literally did the thing he set out to do and brought a title back to Cuero so what was left to accomplish?
Ashley: A district of doom for sure and overall a pretty tough draw for the Waco teams but crazier things have happened. Time to bring the A-Game.
_____
Dennis Clark: Can the rest of 11-6A be accused of bullying Waco In football next season?
Stepp: It's going to be a long two years for Kwame Cavil's squad.
_____
Brayden Henderson: What do you think of Texas singing class
Ish: Broughton and Alfred Collins were big gets but losing Princely Umanmielen to Florida was kind of surprising. Texas needs as many talented bodies on the defensive line as it can get. I’m really curious how the future QB battle turns out, Jaquinden Jackson arguably fits the offense better, but Hudson Card obviously feels that he can win out.
_____
Aaron Arbuckle: Two questions on realignment. 1) Do you believe 6A will split in two next realignment? 2) Any of you guys know when and how TAPPS does their realignment?
Stepp: 1) No, I say 2024 at the earliest. 2) No idea.
Ish: I’d say give it two realignments before they divide up. Nope
_____
Daniel Sanchez: 1) What was the biggest surprise in #UILRealignment in each classification?
Stepp:
6A: Allen ISD and Plano ISD being split
5A: District 4-5A Division I, that's an odd split of teams
4A: 13-4A Division II, wow that's a loaded district
3A: Columbus, Yoakum and Hallettsville being in Region III
2A: 14-2A Division II, those teams being in Region IV is odd

@twhester How does RGHS’s bad travel lottery compare to Tascosa’s (in some cases Amarillo’s) old West Texas super district with Amarillo, Lubbock, Midland-Odessa, Abilene and San Angelo? Travel is a part of life out here, so how bad is it really? #AskDCTF
Stepp: It's worse, because the UIL had other much closer options with Rio Grande City, they really didnt when it comes to Amarillo Tascosa.
Ashley: Tough district. I agree with your first three and then would say Wagner has a good shot for the 4th seed.

@juscarts Question for (probably) just Ish -- what are some of the biggest takeaways on the basketball side of realignment? #AskDCTF
Ish: Nothing overwhelming storyline wise, but San Antonio Wagner being back up in the northern San Antonio 6A cluster will be a ton of fun on boys side. Lake Worth getting involved in that competitive girls basketball grouping of Argyle, Decatur and Bridgeport in 7-4A is interesting too.
