The other rumor is they might bring Kingsville and Alice into our district. They've also said it might be more convenient to move Roma to the Laredo district, but that's just a lot of talk going on. I myself wait until it happens.

My door is open for that. It'd be great to have an eight- or nine-team district. If Lopez and Memorial do go up, I hope we get those schools in here with us.

I think (32-4A) is not going to be as strong because they were always up there on top, very competitive.

It's hard because officially, by UIL rules, you cannot schedule games or sign contracts (until the realignment is announced). All you can do is talk to people and tentatively say, 'If this happens we'll play each other.' Right now everybody's just out there talking to everybody else.

Buy the rumor, sell the fact.

Some report elsewhere whatever is told them; the measure of fiction always increases, and each fresh narrator adds something to what he has heard. [Lat., Hi narrata ferunt alio; mensuraque ficti Crescit et auditus aliquid novus adjicit auctor.]
