Ok guys here's the scoop on this topic. There is a group of investors that are bringing down the "South Texas Classic". The group is headed by a guy named John Weaver. The group is from the Dallas/Fort Worth area. They approached Weslaco and Weslaco East about using Bobby Lackey Stadium as it's centralized site. Here's where it gets tricky - from my understanding Weslaco wanted to be part of it but East could not agree on dates/opponents. Well in Weslaco if one school gets something the other school must get the same thing. Everyone knows that. Consequently, Weslaco High and East were left out. Now, the group ended up going to Mario Pena in San Benito where he quickly jumped on it. Now here's another tricky situation, these investors came after the new realignment was done so in essence none of the teams that are being invited wanted to get out of their committments to the other schools. So...from my understanding the South Texas Classic will be happening BUT with local schools competing. In the next couple of years (or the next realignment) teams from the Dallas area will be coming down to play Valley schools. First schools coming down will be from the Garland area. If you have any other questions I'll try to answer them. now youll lost me..nothing compared to what I was told .....

I would love to see an Austin team go down there. That would be a dream come true:) Maybe Leander, Cedar Park or Pflugerville.
I think Harlingen would be a great location but they need to build a new stadium. Boggus is very outdated and the parking sucks:(

so how exactly does Harlingen make it a great location if it needs all those renovations...not to mention parking and its not centralized.....

Its the Centralized big city for that matter. As for the stadium, who knows. I wish they would just build a new one instead of renovating it time and time. Its a waste of money IMO:(

I say they should build one off of Expressway 83 in the Mid Valley. That way when people show up for the game they would be able to see the stadium lights from the expressway.

Jeez

The only problem w/ Weslaco is that they might not be able to handle 10000 fans from around the state. (in terms of places to stay).
