I was looking around on the Football Scoop website for any other random significant coaching changes. Outside of the potential LSU season being terminated, nothing caught my eye, coaches-wise.

But looking at some of the articles, The following headline caught my attention.
http://footballscoop.com/news/60-te...s-fort-worth-area-indoor-practice-facilities/
Over 60 Texas high schools in the Dallas / Fort Worth area have indoor practice facilities




As if these Tweets were not enough, these quotes should say something.
The addition of Barbers Hill HS brings the count to well over 60 Texas high schools in one greater metropolitan area that have indoor facilities at their disposal before SEC programs [Florida and Georgia], a Big 12 program within state borders [Texas Tech], and a program that has brought home a national title in the last few seasons [Florida State].

Here is another nice article from a Texas High School Football writer, Money's influence on high school game spreading with more and more indoor facilities being built.

The commitment is real. People can say all they want about the use of taxpayers' dollars, but if anything, it is safe to say that other sports and bands get to use the field as well, which is beneficial for many students.

I'll say it again, Football is King in Texas.
