I think, in response to a question on IG, Maddie said she'd be back for a 5th season.  So I fully expect she will be Group 1 leader.  Gina, Miranda and Alexis would be my guess for the other 3 groups if they all return.  I didn't include Tess, because I'm really hoping she retires.  She is beautiful but I always forget she's there. 

My thoughts on who may retire: Amy (confirmed) Lexie (basically confirmed)...after that...I have no clue.  I do "think" Heather, Christina and Savannah will probably retire, but who knows?  There could be a mass exodus or this could be one of the smallest groups retiring in a long time. 

Heather, Amy, Molly, Christina, Bridget retiring.

FWIW, I don't think most people are saying that she’s an awful dancer. During the season of the show, Meredith took most of the criticism for making the team when she didn’t deserve too, not VK. think

"The girl who stepped up" to make all the videos, dance forward for a rookie, etc. because clearly no one else could.  "The mentor" who steps in and helps all the new girls because she can talk from experience about having a rough time.  "The second year point" because I feel an injury coming on for Maddie if she doesn't step out of the way.  "The 50 yard line girl" because she will be right there with the tall girls.   "The prettiest DCC ever", "hair and legs forever", "long American thigh girl"......but mostly ONLY VICTORIA (isn't that what Kelli said when she fell out of turns at auditions?)  I am just sick thinking about it.....it would be so wonderful to have her fade into veteran anonymity.

Interesting about Bridget! Is this just the beginning of retirees, or will we have another large veteran class this next year? 

Hadn’t heard that but would not suprise me at all. Her fam is in CA, she’s had a break up, already down pro cheer forever, and has started to become one of TK’s targets and not so much in favor aka Gina Jr. due to no fault of her own.

if she does retire well there goes my dream diamond of Bridget, Amber, Jalyn, Hannah/Rachel W. I’ll trade Bridget for Amanda.
 

Sorry but while I think Caroline is a fab dancer she looks so soccer mom to me. Not fresh and basic as hell.

I’ve been saying since she made it that her 2nd year she’ll be 1) triangle or diamond 2) they’ll finally listen and start following who MADE the team as well as who is making it the first time.

In many ways I admire Kelli Q. (although I think she's got a blindspot when it comes to VK).  I feel bad for her because I heard she's had a hard time with her husband.  From what I have heard, not only did he leave her, but he basically disappeared for a couple of weeks and she didn't even know where he was.  Then, when she was away, he came and got his things.  He sounds like a dick.

That's awful for sure.  I hope she didn't look too hard for him.  Throw him to the curb....

I just remembered Bridget was in a long term relationship when she joined the team. It was featured on the show. Were they engaged/married? I wonder what happened there. They had been together a long time I think.

I can totally see Tina and Victoria pulling a Tonya Harding on Maddie.

Yes me too but that’s probably because you are a nice person who cares about people around you. As opposed to selfish, entitled and obnoxious

And Tina has probably been telling Victoria all her life that others are jealous of her talent, her looks, blah blah blah.  I mean, she couldn't have been the most popular girl at every single, solitary dance school she attended in the DFW area.  She even said in a video that other girls were so mean to her.  Gee, now where have I heard that before🤔

What I don’t get is if the ladies are that miserable with her being on the squad why not just retire at the end of the season ? I get that they love being a dcc and all of that but when is it enough to say this isn’t worth it anymore 

Well because it isn’t the end of the first season with VK yet. Wait and see who will retire instead of just quit mid season. 

Also it takes about five min in the dance world from elementary age to pro to figure out there is ALWAYS at least one VK. If you quit because of every mean girl or unfair decision by a coach you might as well just never dance again.

I think we’ve all had a VK (or multiple actually) in one of our jobs. You usually don’t resign based on this person only, especially when you don’t have anything else going on. These girls seem to think that dcc is all there is in life, it’s not easy to let go because you need to deal with a spoiled girl who thinks she’s better than she really is.

Anyone else think that the group distributions are way off?? Group 4 has the 3 weakest rookies and only one strong veteran (not including the GL and 2GL) which is Hannah. It's so odd how they divided it up

GROUP 4 - 4/10 on SG
1. Tess - SG
2. Gina - SG
3. Hannah - SG
4. Molly
5. Brennan
6. Taylor J
7. Victoria - SG
8. Kat
9. Lily
10. Meredith

I think this was intentional so VK gets more camera time.  Think about it,  Gina is strong but not HD friendly, Hannah can be pretty but has a harsh look, Taylor is strong dancer but not the best face...so Kat and Meredith have great looks appeal but are weakest in dancing so VK will stand out.  I think it is SO lopsided compared to other groups this is why.  You don't want VK next to too many string vets where you realize she is the rookie she is! Ha!

Caroline is a strong dancer, and looks to be very consistent. I love her figure too...but I agree, she’s pretty, but in a typical, waspy way. She has the look of a lot of pretty/attractive girls who go to college in the northeast. But she does look smart and has that all- American girl look: pretty and relatable.

I had a mean girl boss who made up things, played favorites who she used & discarded, and would take any request & give you the opposite.  People said wait it out, she will retire soon...finally something happened after 3 years and I left.  I loved all aspects of my job but it wasn’t worth it anymore.  She stayed 3 more years before retiring still being angry & playing games.  My mental health was certainly better. I could have stayed until retirement but things happen for a reason.

I cannot agree with you enough!!! If i were  on the team with this drama, it would take more to get me to retire. A dancer (cheerleader) that is getting this propped up ahead of others more talented is not uncommon. A smart girl would just be better at everything: show leadership, responsibility, humility, and have her spidey senses on high alert. This combination will usually drive the ‘favorite’ crazy, as she can’t catch you in anything. You also have to make yourself incredibly likable and appear genuine in the midst of all. Basically, you need to put on a Meryl Streep performance. Kelli is playing hard favorites but she is no dummy. She needs a team of 36.

I'm a big fan of both Caroline and Hannah's looks - Hannah is very striking and looks like a supermodel. Caroline is rather more girl next door/Americas Sweetheart type, she reminds me of Danielle.

Does everyone remember how Gina got DRAGGED on her rookie season because she was coming off as a "mean girl" and not taking the time to make friends or getting to know the other rookies on her team?  And how Madeline Malloy was told to respect the seniority of her team mates, and her rank as a rookie?  

Seems like the same lessons could be applied to VK ... and yet, doesn't seem to apply for her.  Again, not a VK hater here: just pointing out the double standard.

When is banquet?  We hopefully will get a handle on those retiring by or around then (unless, like I've brought up before, Kelli's told them to keep a lit on it until Auditions).

I know we would like vindication of a mass exodus, but it is not going to happen.  Even if a few retire because of the nepotism and toxicity... they are not going to say that.  Just like you may say stuff about your boss after work to friends... in the end the smart people say "Quit for better opportunities" and don't burn bridges.  The DFW community is small and if people want to capitiliize on their DCC alum status and teach dance, husband hunt or whatever they smile, quietly quit, and say "Yes, ma'm"

Okay, I am laughing because I thought you meant like a "red wedding" moment and instead you meant a REAL banquet event.  Haha.  typed to long to not post.... lol
