  1. Pretty spot on and in line with my predictions as well. Both KD and Kelee have had leadership positions before (KD being captain of TCU Showgirls and Kelee being a line officer for the Rangerettes) also I'm pretty sure Tori owns a dance studio so she's good for teaching choreo to future TCCs.
  2. When I said "I don't think there's been a time in the history of DCC where all of the members of a rookie class become 2nd year vets.", I am also including rookies that retire or left due to injury after their first year as a DCC. I'm pretty sure that year that you are talking about had at least one girl that retired after one year. If we don't include girls who have retired after their rookie year, then yes it has happened before. Most recent being the 2021 rookie class becoming 2nd year vets without a vet cut (if we don't include Amber L who left due to injury) Maybe this year, it'll be the year that we get to see all the girls become 2nd year vets, it's a small rookie class and there are 11 spots to fill excluding vet cuts so it could happen.
  3. Gosh I'm gonna miss Claire and Zhenya the most. In other news, I am shocked that Chandi is doing a 6th year. I'm guessing they asked her to do a 6th year since most of the group leaders are retiring. I love Chandi though so no complaints and it's the first 6th year vet since Jenna back in 2017. Hopefully no vet cuts this year, although it looks like all the rookies are returning so they will be at least one vet cut from there since I don't think there's been a time in the history of DCC where all of the members of a rookie class become 2nd year vets.
  4. Agree. I actually find it funny how in one of the later seasons of Making The Team (I forgot which one), Kelli mentions how it has always been "tradition" that the veterans get the front rows while the rookies stay in the back when we know for certain that wasn't always the case. It was only up until the 2010s (I wanna say 2011 but I could be wrong) that it was fully implemented. Just from the MTT years alone I can think of girls like Carrie Stillwell, Melissa Rycroft, Loni Lindsey, and Abigail Klein getting the privilege of being in the front 2 rows while on their rookie season. Meanwhile Lynlee Allen (who was a 5th year veteran during MTT Season 1) was in the standing in the 3rd row and Whitney Ott (a 4th year veteran on the same season) was in the 4th row. So...yeah, I for one am glad that they don't do this anymore.
  5. Still no squad photo on the website and still no headshot updates for the girls that are missing them. Idk what the heck they are doing over there, but they need to get it together lol.
  6. Thank you to the person on reddit who downloaded the photo from IG cause for some reason (as of the making of this post) they don't have the squad photo on the website yet (seriously you posted it on IG first but didn't make sure to post it on the website too?) I did predict that the center girl was gonna be either Kelcey or Chandi so I'm not surprised on that. I'm just tired of the photoshopped photos. Like I get it, back in "the olden days" it would take HOURS to shoot the squad photo, but you cannot tell me that cropping everyone's photo and putting them together makes for a better picture than taking it IRL. Like...you just can't. Also by making the squad photo not be IRL, you miss the variety in terms of poses for the photo. This photo is an almost EXACT copy of the 2020 squad photo. The only difference being the front row and the corner poses. And you're probably thinking "But the ideal squad number is always gonna be 36, so there's bound to be some overlap" Ok then I present to you the squad photos for the years 2018, 2017, 2014, 2008, and 2003, in these years they had a roster of 36 and yet all of them look different from one another. Nowadays the squad photo looks too symmetrical, too photoshopped, too fake, dull and lifeless. The fact that only three girls (Kelcey, Chandi, and Victoria) have experienced what was supposed to be a DCC tradition (their words not mine) of taking the squad photo IRL is just...sad. At this point I'm ranting for the sake of ranting (I mean at the end of the day it's just a photo right? so why should I care?) but cameo photos and squad photo are two of the things that I always look forward to every year and I want them to look good. Anyways I sincerely hope they reconsider doing IRL squad photos again and thank you for coming to my TED talk lol.
  7. I don't about about everyone else, but I don't really like the editing style used on this video. I personally like the squad reveal video that they did for 2021 more than this one. Also when I saw the video for the first time I thought that maybe, just maybe, we'd get the squad photo as well. But alas, we have to keep waiting for that squad photo to be revealed (which will mostly likely be photoshopped...again)
  8. DCC Website Update: Some of this year's headshots are now available on the website. Not all members have their new headshots posted though. Kelcey, Jada, Armani, Dani, Megan, Darian, Kaydianna, Madeline, Rebecca, Tori, Kally, Karley, Kylie, and Sophy don't have this year's headshots posted. So hopefully they can fix that. Previously only the rookie headshots were available (except for Zoe's who's headshot was badly rendered, but now it has been fixed) Still no squad photo though :(
  9. The new cameo photos are up on the website. Still no squad photo though https://dallascowboyscheerleaders.com/our-team/ Update: If you open the photo in a new tab you can see that they all have a weird white border around them almost as if they were too lazy to take the time to cut off all of the white background off of the photos. The rookies also have their headshot photos up on their page but not the vets (they have the headshots from previous years) although Zoe's headshot photo is badly sized compared to the other rookies. Hopefully they fix that soon. https://dallascowboyscheerleaders.com/our-team/zoe/ Also based on the fact that the cameo photos are up but not the squad photo, it most likely means that we are getting yet another photoshop made squad photo instead of an IRL squad photo. Which sucks cause that means that Kelcey, Chandi and Victoria are the only girls left that have been a part of an IRL squad photo. I miss it tbh.
  10. Same. I never really thought of her as the leader type, but good for her nonetheless. I'm sure she'll do a great job. I found my predictions for group leaders and I managed to get 6 out of 8 correctly. My Predictions 1st Leaders: Kelcey, Claire, Chandi, McKenzie 2nd Leaders: Armani, Dani, Victoria, Darian Actual Group Leaders 1st Leaders: Kelcey, McKenzie, Claire, Chandi 2nd Leaders: Jada, Armani, Dani, Megan
  11. I think everyone and their mom was shocked that Charly got cut. She was probably the only TCC I was truly rooting for. But congrats to the 8 remaining girls. Now that we know the final roster is 36 that means no one will be forced to sit out of the Thunderstruck dance, which is always a plus for me. But also this means that this is the shortest rookie class since 2010 (who also had 8 rookies) We also get a new sister duo in Caroline and Anna Kate, something we haven't seen since 2011 with Ashton and Alyssa (although Caroline has already retired, it's still cool to see) And congratulations to Taylor for being the newest addition to the comeback girl list. Now comes the fun part (for me at least) and that is figuring out who's gonna be the center girl of the squad photo. I think it's gonna be between Kelcey and Chandi, but they could throw a massive curveball at us and pick someone else. I personally think it should be a brunette since the veteran roster is majority blonde, but if they do decide to pick a blonde for the center spot then I would bet my money on Dani, Tori, and Madeline. But we'll see what happens. And for the love of God please make the squad photo IRL this year, I am soooo tired of the bad photoshop job that they are doing with the squad photo. I can't take it anymore lol
  12. Weren't the behind the scenes photos of DCC alumni? Maybe they were DCCs from the 90s talking about their experience cheering for the Cowboys during that time. I don't know I'm just speculating.
  13. So from this, it looks like we have 1-2 cuts left before the final squad reveal. Is it just me or does it feel like people are getting cut too quickly? lol
  14. It's that time of the year where I pull out my DCC Name Database and compare the names of the training camp candidates to names of previous DCCs. I took all of my information from Pompedia, The Dallas Cowboys Website, and The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Website. If there is anyone that I am missing , if I spelled someone's name or last name wrong, or if I have their years wrong, please let me know. Also keep in mind that this isn't the final roster, so some trainees will get cut, but I am too impatient and I wanted to do it now instead of waiting until the final team was announced. ANISHA: would be the first DCC with this name and spelling ANNA KATE: would be the second DCC with this name and spelling if we go by just her first name 1. Anna Carpenter (1972, 1973) ARIANA: would be the first DCC with this name and spelling BECCA: would be the fourth DCC with this name and spelling 1. Becca Wells (1975) 2. Becca Meyers (1994, 1995, 1996), 3. Becca Gambel (2004, 2005, 2006) BROOKLYN: would be the first DCC with this name and spelling CAMILLE: would be the second DCC with this name and spelling 1. Camille Caskey (1997, 1998, 2000) CHARLY: would be the first DCC with this name and spelling KELLY: would be the eight DCC with this name and spelling. If TCC Kelly joins the team then the name variant "Kelly" would be tied for the 3rd most common name in DCC history alongside "Lisa" and "Mary" if we count only female DCCs. If we count both male and female, then it would be tied for 4th. 1. Kelly Williams (1976) 2. Kelly Ann Gray (1981, 1982) 3. Kelly McKee (1983) 4. Kelly Zaloudek (1983, 1985) 5. Kelly Drake (1991, 1992, 1993) 6. Kelly Kirchoff-Stus (2000, 2001, 2002, 2003) 7. Kelly Jo Stauffacher (2007) KENNEDY: would be the first DCC with this name and spelling. LEAH: would be the fifth DCC with this name and spelling. 1. Leah Goodwin (1997) 2. Leah Lyons (2002) 3. Leah Wilkins (2004, 2005, 2006) 4. Leah Mullinax (2006, 2007) MCKENNA: would be the first DCC with this name and spelling REECE: would be the first DCC with this name and spelling TAYLOR: would be the fourth DCC with this name and spelling 1. Taylor Miller (2005) 2. Taylor Jane Johnson (2018, 2019, 2020, 2021) 3. Taylor Pedersen (2019) ZOE: would be the first DCC with this name and spelling. The name variant "Zoe" would also become the last name on my list of DCC names, surpassing "Zhenya" (the names are listed in alphabetical order) Reddit said that Darian and Kaylin were cut so I didn’t include them on the list. but in case you wanted to know Kaylin would've been the first DCC with this name, and Darian would've been the second DCC with this name, the first one being Darian Lassiter who joined the team in 2020 and is still on the team as of this post.
