Forney could be AAA this year. The TEA website says they have 1,285 students in grades 10-12. Yeah, Forney and a couple of the newer Frisco schools were right on the AA/AAA line. I wonder if their TEA number will match what they submit to the USDOE.

The way I see it, Flower Mound’s magic number is 90. If they hit it (or extremely close), they’re probably keeping parity with TWHS and Reagan, setting Texas up for a possible 2003 GN situation. If they’re lower than 88, then finals is obviously a lock, but I’m less sure of a medal.
Yes I know scores between competitions/weeks blah blah blah.

There’s a pretty good video of flower mound from a football game a week ago on YouTube. Just look up Marcus vs Flower Mound. Edit- there’s also a video of Hebron from the Mesquite Marching Festival on Saturday, just sort by new. Who knows how long it will last?

I definitely thinks it’s a little too harsh to completely throw Flower Mound out of medal contention because they happened to score an 87 at an October 9th show a month before Grand Nationals.

I definitely thinks it’s a little too harsh to completely throw Flower Mound out of Medel contention because they happened to score an 87 at an October 9th show a month before Grand Nationals. Don't think he was throwing them out of medal contention with that score, just reducing their chances (but not to zero). Two weeks after TWHS hit 86 in Conroe and 1 week after Reagan hit 87/88 in Katy means there is pressure to perform into the upper 80's to around 90. Especially if they have the full show.

My terrible predictions: 1) Hebron (Music, GE) 2) Flower Mound (Visual) 3) Marcus 4) LD Bell 5) Wakeland 6) Keller 7) Haltom (Anything past here I have no idea.) C'mon Hebron you can do it.

Right at the start of the season I had Hebron taking this. However, given that Flower Mound and Marcus are both in a similar place, if not better off, cleanliness wise, I think the strength of their designs will probably carry them ahead this weekend. It usually takes a full season for Hebron’s GE to materialize since it’s usually just coming from the playing. Come to think of it, it’s been since 2011 at least since Hebron did a show that wasn’t basically “Vague Concept.”

1.) Flower Mound 2.) Hebron 3.) Marcus 4.) LD Bell 5.) Haltom 6.) Keller 7.) Coppell 8) Waxahachie 9.) Wakeland 10.) Carroll 11.) Keller Central 12.) Timber Creek (I'm not even gonna try to predict the rest lol)
Just a clueless Tennessean's predictions...Texans, don't kill me;))

I'm considering purchasing the live stream for this contest, but was wondering if anyone had any issues with the stream last week? I don't want another issue like during Austin where it wasn't working for part of the time that I purchased and then they ended up just sharing a stream with everyone on youtube.

Well, in a surprise to absolutely no one, Hebron is still the best playing band in America. Just incredible musicianship happening with that program. I like this show! It's intense and the blue pillars shift the staging in a cool way. They seem a little smaller than usual, but it certainly doesn't hurt their sound, and the visual package is more focused as a result.

Thoughts on Hebron live… as others have said they are just as good as before! A lot of happening in all quadrants of the field in terms of drill so I would definitely like another read with less wind.
The guard is really quite good again! The full ensemble moments in the beginning could have been maybe had a little more power, but it’s still somewhat early and the bones are there. The mellos are great as always, the woodwinds are whoa
The show itself is a little blah, the music could be played for almost anything but nonetheless Hebron is as good as ever.
