  1. If there is an Assistant Director position in the offering, I would bet money Jackie Bob has thrown her hat in the ring. She seems to have kept at least one foot in the pro cheer world since she retired and doesn't seem to have another career that she's dedicated to. Jackie was well respected by her teammates, She had over 9 years on the sidelines with the 49ers and Cowboys, plus several years as a DCC all star, and was a captain/leader for multiple years on both teams. She has worked with the Pro Bowl cheerleaders and DCC youth camps for years, still teaches dance, and judges cheer/dance auditions. She also has a business background in marketing and sales, though I'm not sure how extensive that is. She is much better positioned for the role than most other DCC who've retired in the last 10 years or so. I've long believed Jackie's ultimate goal is to direct an NFL dance team and expect her to be right there when Kelli retires. ETA: Jenn Amburn is my second guess, as far as fairly recent alumni go.
  2. I suspect this is her, but it's hard to tell. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWWWDm9_80I&ab_channel=DonW
  3. I didn't notice that, thanks. Her kicks were great.
  4. Watch Kaydianna teach and perform this year's TCU showgirl audition material (fight song and jazz combination). https://gofrogs.com/watch/?Archive=3944&type=Live The video is approx. 15 minutes. Kaydianna is in the intro, then another girl teaches the kick combo, then Kaydianna comes back at 3:30.
  5. Every time the subject of Jalyn and Show Group comes up, I wonder what really happened. I believe the current lore is Jalyn corrected Victoria about something, Victoria complained, Kelli removed Jalyn from show group, and now Kelli harbors a deep and abiding hatred for Jalyn, but keeps her on the team, because...why, again? (After all, Kelli is known for hanging on to people she doesn't like, right? She keeps them on the team and tortures them for years.) And Jalyn keeps coming back because she is a glutton for punishment? So much so that she's going on year #4 now? Have any of you worked under a manager who clearly did not like you? It quickly becomes unbearable. There may be a grain of truth to the story, but it's all a little too telenovela for me. Anyway, I was curious whether Jalyn even has a job that would allow her the flexibility to be on Show Group, so Iooked her up and this made me laugh.. @JayDKay and @Pj3422 I wish I could quote you, but the other thread is locked now. Time to polish up that resume!
  6. Just saw that Gina's cameo has been updated on the DCC website now. Thanks @ShellyB 😃
  7. My guess is that the field that she's in - gov't and construction would also be especially conservative, no? They're not looking for Ally McBeal to walk in the door. I watch Emily D Baker on youtube. She's a lawyer who used to be a district attorney and one time she said that when she's in court, the last thing she wanted to do was draw a jury's attention. You want the jury focused on the case, not on how cute your shoes are, or where'd you get that necklace. Not that Karissa is a prosecutor, but I wonder if the rule still kind of applies.
  8. Having exhausted the topics of vaccines, blackface, cultural appropriation, and such, let us now turn our attention to gun control, the death penalty, and trans-men and -women in professional sports. Actually, I think we could all use a palate cleanser. Plus, it's a long holiday weekend. Yay 'Murica! I'll leave you with this... (This is throwback audition stuff. Spoilered for those who aren't into that.)
  9. I think they are meant to be a nod to the lacing on football pants, kind of like their other costumes. Or at least, I hope that's what it was. You're more concise and to the point. I tend to be a little very wordy.😄
  10. Yeah, and I think they pre-assign numbers to those who register in advance so they'll get low numbers. So if they have a bunch of pre-registrations who take 1-99, then they have say 4 tables for walkins, table 1 (A-F) gets numbers 100-199 table 2 (G-L) gets numbers 200-299 table 3 (names M-R) gets numbers 300-399 table 4 (names S-Z) gets 400-499 I can see how there'd be lots of gaps, especially near the end of each table's range (i.e. 175-199, 275-299, etc.) I used to think the gaps were a little shady, but it makes sense to me now.
  11. Yep. She goes to La Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara. They do their first two years on campus in Mexico. For years 3. and 4, they can choose to do their clinical rotations at an affiliated facility in Mexico, Puerto Rico, or the US. Cersten spent year 3 (and presumably will spend year 4) at University Medical Center in Las Vegas.
  12. Jaycie Seta is a 2021 Arizona Cardinals Cheerleader https://www.azcardinals.com/photos/the-2021-cardinals-cheerleaders-lineup#f40b98e2-14a3-47f1-8380-ad095381e000
  13. Yes, and it was a very different Judy on that show. I watched some of it recently. Hard Knocks with the 2002 Dallas Cowboys | NFL Vault - YouTube (For those who haven't seen it, you have to skim through it to find the DCC stuff sprinkled in here and there)
  14. Ashley's natural hair is so cute. Cutting it (when she was a Dolphins Cheerleader) really made her stand out. If she makes the team, Kelli would be crazy to change it. Having said that, I would love for them to show Kelli going to Rose Style with some of the other girls, especially Armani. I don't think they did her justice last year. I'd also like to see Kelee. We only have that one photo in training camp and she doesn't have the braids anymore. Her hair looks good from what I can tell. I hope they don't try to add a bunch of crazy highlights.
  15. It seems like - for the schools outside of Texas - once one woman becomes a DCC, other women from her college dance team think about auditioning too. I'm thinking especially of UCLA, Arizona State, and U of Nebraska.
  16. Kelli and Madeline's mom weren't rookie sisters. Shannon joined the team two years after Kelli. Kelli was a DCC for 5 years. She had 140+ teammates during that time and it was more than 30 years ago. It was the nineteen-freaking-eighties! I don't remember people I worked with every day even ten years ago.
  17. Thank you for answering this, I appreciate knowing this. Is she still dating the same guy?
  18. I really don't understand the homophobic thing with Rachel. When this topic was first mentioned during her rookie year, I asked someone to point out to me what she tweeted that was homophobic, and the person just told me to look at her twitter. I did and I saw a bunch of stuff about her conservative politics, but I didn't see anything homophobic. I'm still lost as to where that comes from, unless people assumed that conservative automatically = homophobic. Just like some assumed conservative = antivax (cough cough). ETA: I wasn't asking the question back then (or now) to attack or challenge, but because I wanted to see it for myself. That label, just like the "racist" label is so damaging, it can absolutely destroy a person's reputation and prospects, so I need to see some evidence before I'm willing to get on board.
  19. Didn't say I'm a fan of glamour photography, just that that's what it's called😃. TBH, I wouldn't want my BFF, my sister, or my kid doing it for a variety of reasons I won't bore you with. But I figure, that's her dream, and she's putting a lot into it. Some people are into synchronized swimming, some people climb Everest, some people collect vintage vacuum cleaners. I don't understand what's so great about those things anymore than I understand wanting to post endless numbers of sexy photos of yourself, but live your dreams, sis.
  20. If that's true, it makes me feel sorry for the vets who have to attend rehearsal night after night for dances they already know. But I did hear there are some rookies-only rehearsals, so maybe the vets do get a break.
  21. Is anyone else getting déjà vu? I feel like this exact same thing happened a couple of years ago. A photo was posted, there was a big uproar because someone wasn't in it, and then it turned out they were still in TC, they just weren't in that particular photo? Which isn't to say someone hasn't been cut, but honestly, who knows anymore? ETA: @Tuxcat that does look like Kat to me too.
