I drove to Weatherford once. It was a long drive. Stephenville is West Texas.

Stephenville is from the DFW metroplex? Just how far out does the Metroplex go, anyway?

Good catch. Not that far.


This is what I was getting at in another thread. People quote the 6 million DFW population number when it includes all of this (including Stephenville):

Actually, the 6.5 million figure refers to the US Government Census Bureau definition, not the NCTCOG definition (which is what I think your map is showing)

US Government Designated

Counties in the DFW metroplex
Collin County
Dallas County
Delta County
Denton County
Ellis County
Hood County
Hunt County
Johnson County
Kaufman County
Parker County
Rockwall County
Somervell County
Tarrant County
Wise County


No Erath county, no Stephenville.

Of course, adding the other counties in doesn't materially affect the figures...

I believe my map is used by the North Texas Chamber of Commerce (Or Dallas Regional Chamber of Commerce), but I didn't look long enough for confirmation.

He won't win the job as a true freshman. Baylor has a couple good qbs sitting there.

If he does, maybe we can grab Russel or Johnson on the transfer market.

Russell is pretty dang good. I don't see anyone beating him out.
