Yes, I was a little confused by why the school is allowing her to stay. Why didn't they counsel her out to transition to a 4-year school?
And to be fair, I think her grandparents were saying to own a nail salon, not just be a nail tech.


I’ve seen pictures floating around of her and Austin in Texas Tech uniforms. I think she ultimately did transfer out.

I liked the show but I don’t think I want another season. The moment that they captured seemed appropriate, another season seems like it would be more of the same but this time everyone is trying to become famous too.

My brother's face went through a windshield when he was 16. He's a husband, father, CPA and lawyer. He doesn't have a brain injury. You should not diagnose people. Even if you were a doctor (which I highly doubt), halfway decent doctors don't diagnose people they haven't met with, examined and run tests on. You don't have any facts to decide Lexi has a TBI. Sit down.

I find/found the whole cheer culture a bit strange. Not necessarily bad, it’s clearly a lifeline for these kids. But The women dress in these flashy outfits with big bows, big hair, and tons of makeup to essentially get thrown around by a team of guys...that seems like a bigger risk to them.

As for Monica, my only beef with her is the speech she gave to them when she said “I have a master’s degree and could be in NYC making lots of money, but I gave it up for your guys...” or something. It just felt wrong.

I'm really hoping for a season two although the odds aren't looking so good right now. I loved seeing the dedication to the sport but also learning about the individuals and their unique life stories. So well done.

It was incredibly frustrating, we were expected to raise our own money by coaching camps, be pimped out (not in a sexual way but in a "go be a friendly pretty face way....) for recruiting and donors, do PR at community events, sideline cheer at all basketball games (which is a lot of time and we got none of the academic support or accommodations other athletes get), and yet we couldn't compete b/c we didn't have enough money when in reality thats all most of us wanted to do.

The kicker was traveling with the team and getting a $35 per diem for food. Athletes get free everything, laundry done, etc - we had to do a lot more than normal athletes AND pay out of pocket if we wanted more than a subway sandwich for lunch



WAH!! That's the history of college sports. Basketball and football bring in revenue. You dont like it dont participate.


What an insightful and helpful comment.

He’s awful. Varsity is a crap company.

It's new regulations coming from the national cheerleaders association and national dance alliance.

Jerry left L'ville and is back at Navarro? One of his cheer moms needs to talk to him about moving on and growing up and thinking about the future.
