Episode description
When East Dillon opens in season 4, there is a giant funding gap between the new school and Dillon. How realistic is this?
We look at how schools are funded in Texas, how football is funded compared to other extracurriculars, and the extravagance of 6A stadiums. Plus, an update on the NFL's race norming situation, and some non-FNL recommendations.
