Hoping that maybe, just maybe, we see Wakeland or Coppell breaking into the top three? I would love to see some mix up happen from the usual LISD medalists.

Yes, Keller will medal. Confirmed I think out of Coppell/Keller/Wakeland I feel Keller is the least likely to medal, they tend to be weaker in the early season then tend to rev it up towards to the end (somewhat like pearland). I expect an LISD medal sweep once again.

Keller definitely has been going through an interesting period these past few years. Some wonkier designs since the design team change in 2019, building back up post pandemic, as well as the guard working through transitions. They went from 30/40+ members pre-pandemic to around 20 last season. But I've heard whispers that Keller may have changed designers for the upcoming season which could make them more of a wildcard. Sounding like it's going to be a beautiful show based on the show reveal and taking home 3rd would be a great momentum builder towards Grand Nats.
If I were to bet on who would take 3rd over Marcus, Coppell would be my top pick at this moment. Very strong showings these past few years. The last time it wasn't an LISD sweep was 2018 where Keller placed 3rd. Though, Marcus was not in attendance and finals was canceled due to bad weather. But considering Keller beat Marcus the week prior at the HEB contest, 2018 being the first year after Marcus' director change, and Keller beating Marcus at SA later that season, it is possible that Keller could've taken 3rd regardless.
Let's not even get started on trying to break top 2...

Bring it on, Keller, can’t wait to hear it!!

i'm gonna copy yayband and do a prediction with tiers
Flower Mound H.S., TX Hebron H.S., TX -------------------------- Coppell H.S., TX Marcus H.S., TX Wakeland H.S., TX -------------------------- Jenks H.S., OK Keller Central H.S., TX L.D. Bell H.S., TX Southlake Carroll H.S., TX Timber Creek H.S., TX Waxahachie H.S., TX -------------------------- Forney H.S., TX Lone Star H.S., TX -------------------------- Aledo H.S., TX Burleson Centennial H.S., TX James Martin H.S., TX Lebanon Trail H.S., TX
i stopped ranking when i got to bands i was less familiar with, didn't wanna be unfair. didn't really know where to place jenks, as i think the only three bands at this regional they have directly competed with in the past ~5 years is coppell, bell, and southlake at st. louis 2019. since then, coppell has had a massive glow up as a boa sa and uil state finalist, southlake has become a grand national finalist, and bell seems to be on track to getting their mojo back. curious if wakeland will have another strong season, especially as they are attending boa sa this year. also really pulling for a non LISD band to medal, love them but its time. the bottom half of finals is gonna be crazy, so many bands that seem to be on such a similar level, this should be a very interesting contest.

Exactly two months until this contest! It's time for very early predictions. Rather than going through the headache of trying to guess placements, I'm making the predictions tier-based and in alphabetical order.
Deeply analyzing most Dallas and Houston Texas regionals always turns out pretty fruitless whenever I attempt to do so, so I’ll try and keep it short. Lots of heavy hitters here. While I think the top 10 are pretty solid, aside from the top 3 and Coppell, everyone else could be pretty interchangeable. Same with the inner and outer finalist bubbles, I think most of those groups are pretty interchangeable depending on performance and design. I doubt much of this will look the same in two months!
Medalist Contenders (1-3): Flower Mound H.S., TX Hebron H.S., TX Marcus H.S., TX ---------- Finalist Locks (4-10): Coppell H.S., TX L.D. Bell H.S., TX Wakeland H.S., TX ---------- Jenks H.S., OK Southlake Carroll H.S., TX Timber Creek H.S., TX Waxahachie H.S., TX ---------- Finals Bubble (11-15): Forney H.S., TX Keller Central H.S., TX Lone Star H.S., TX Rockwall H.S., TX Sachse H.S., TX ---------- Outer Bubble (16-19): Aledo H.S., TX Burleson Centennial H.S., TX James Martin H.S., TX Lebanon Trail H.S., TX ---------- Everyone Else (20-28): Grapevine H.S., TX Krum H.S., TX Liberty H.S., TX Rick Reedy H.S., TX Trinity H.S., TX ---------- Aubrey H.S., TX Brock H.S., TX Iowa Park H.S., TX James Earl Rudder H.S., TX

BOA DFW Predictions! I’d love for there to be an unseating at in the medalist spots, but it’s really hard to take any of the LISD trio out. The only band I’d give even a shot of doing so would be Coppell. Bands 10-15 is gonna be hotly contested for those final 3 spots
1. Hebron 2. Flo Mo 3. Marcus - - - - - - - - - - - 4. Coppell 5. Wakeland 6. Jenks (only splitting this up because top half/bottom half scoring weirdness) - - - - - - - - - - - 7. L.D. Bell 8. Lone Star 9. SLC - - - - - - - - - - - 10. Timber Creek 11. Waxahachie 12. Keller Central
(BUBBLE!!!) 13. Forney 14. Rockwall 15. Aledo 16. Lebanon Trail
Great bands are definitely gonna be left out!

I feel they have some good momentum with the staff they have as well.
