Notable readsFootball may be king in Texas, but is its grip on some North Texas communities weakening?
Growing up in West Texas, where Friday Night Lights was a way of life, Argyle coach Todd Rodgers couldn’t wait to don the purple and gold.

He knew the names of the Crane High School football players and eventually became one.
“I was conditioned that purple and gold was the thing to be,” said Rodgers, who won state titles as Argyle’s coach in 2013 and 2020. “We had good athletes in my grade and we talked about how many games we were going to win… it was very unifying.”
In Argyle, a boomtown about 40 miles northwest of Dallas, community members value high school football just like Rodgers did in his youth. Voters approved a new football stadium that is scheduled to be completed this fall, and an indoor facility on campus is under construction.
“One of our mission statements in athletics is to meet the kid where they are and grow them to their full potential,” Rodgers said. ” In my mind, that should be a goal for every school district, but it’s important for us.”

Since 2006, at least eight school districts statewide have opened stadiums that cost $35 million or more. Some Dallas-area athletic booster clubs have reported annual revenue topping $2 million, and most high school football coaches in North Texas earn six-figure salaries, often making them the highest earners on their campuses.
But taxpayers in some North Texas communities have said no to new stadiums and rejected upgrades to decades-old structures. Most booster clubs have trouble maintaining consistent funding from year to year, especially if their teams aren’t winning. And in large districts with multiple high schools and diverse demographics, it can be hard to rally community support around athletics with so many competing interests, from academics to non-sports extracurriculars.
The Dallas Morning News analyzed the salaries and work history of head football coaches, booster club finances and the success or failure of stadium projects at nearly 150 schools to gauge the investment North Texas communities are making in football in 2025 and how that translates on the field halfway through the 2025 regular season.
