Young people don’t want those jobs
Young men can’t even pick up a phone call, they think phones are tik tok machines

Look I am voting for Paxton because I want my $5000
It’s just an added benefit that talafreako won’t win and push more government hand outs

Can I ask a question? Why is Paxton so disliked? What is this baggage?
plenty legit swamp behavior that at the mimium he is accused of, if not outright guilty of. Texas GOP has blurred the lines between business friendly and cornyism for awhile, Paxton is a step in the wrong direction. Dan Patrick indirectly made this election harder for him by banning weed for the booze lobby.
The real problem with Paxton that people here often ignore is that he is as low energy of a canidate that i have ever seen. He talks like he tossed half a xanax into a beer before he hits the stage.
His entire campaign is just idenity politics. Idenity politics only gets you so far when you are the party in charge.

In a thread comparing Houston and Dallas, your contribution is that Houston’s biggest problem is too many poor white people living “around it”?
281ers are a legitimate problem. Cant argue against that

re: Has there been a situation where a coach was poached and it killed a program?

Feels like we need to see this swing back where schools say, if you don't want to stay here, that's fine. We will find someone else.
i feel the only way to reset the market is when a coach is comfortable enough with making a poverty wage of 2 million if it means the program will fund NIL instead
Sexton will never allow one of his clients to do that

to your point about high schools and new Orleans, it has always amused me that people think it's such a nola thing.
people care about that in every city, it's just that *you* are a transplant who associates with other transplants so you don't see it.
For Texas, millenials are the first generation in mass that grew up here. Obviously there are people with deep roots in Texas but for the most part the population boom was with the invention of A/C
There isn't generations of townies like there is in New Orleans.

and Dallas doesnt feel like you've entered Mogadishu in between the nice areas, unlike Houston (and New Orleans for that matter)
meh, it is not like you got to drive thru greenspoint to go from River oaks to tanglewood. It is just that treversing from point a to point b can be a pain in the arse.
The Houston Arrow is all fine places more or less. Now outside of that, you can run into some rough spots pretty quick.

I live in the Houston urban core and I actually think the opposite is true. It is mostly splitting hairs though, as the two are more similar than natives would like to admit
Dallas has a better concentration of wealthly neighborhoods in the Unverisity park/highland park with the rich starter homes in lakewood. Where Houston is more pocketed with West U/Blvd Oaks, River Oaks, Bellaire, and Memorial/Tanglewood
Houston's core does have the advantage in pockets of liveable neighborhoods with different vibes. Montrose, heights, garden oaks, timbergrove, brairmeadow, ect.
