I'm sure it's being discussed. Looks like we are going to the 40 second clock next year.

I'm always fascinated with Texas. They always want to be seen as different than the rest of the country, for some reason, when it comes to HS football.

Football in Texas is a religion. They shut down the whole town for a football game. $60 million dollar high school stadiums that put some NFL stadiums to shame.

That's all well and good, but that doesn't mean the officials are any different or better than they are anywhere else. At least from this thread, that seems pretty obvious.
