Saw the show group at Oxnard performing and was surprised to see 13 girls dancing.  I watched it several times with different views and it is apparently when dancing in pairs and then one group of 3.  Took an alternate girl?

Erica's out with a shoulder/neck injury

 
And I just noticed when I popped up the tags on this that it appears to be LAST years Oxnard photo??

There are normally 16 girls on show group I believe. There are this year. 3 of them are rookie candidates and they don't normally perform at Oxnard.

I'd argue waiting until the end gives the girls a better chance to practice and improve themselves.

But there's no way they're going to keep them all on the team. So yeah maybe one girl will be lucky enough to prove herself at the very last minute, but 4 other girls are going to get their heart broken on the very last day. That's cruel.

I don't know. If it were me, I'd take solace in the fact that I made it up until the very last practice before being cut. It's heartbreaking no matter when they get cut, but at least you knew you had a legit shot at making the team if you went all the way, only to be cut at the end. Or at the very least, K&J were really hoping you'd show them you had what it takes to make it. I'd rather have that than get cut early.

have they even had practice? i feel like they took their summer break, even kelli was on vacation.  i could be wrong tho. 

They still have rehearsal...everything goes on even when K & J have vacay. The cameras are not with us errday, errweek throughout training camp.

Does that mean they're done making cuts in general or just for this past week?

Who's to say. If they stick with 36, then yes. It will be some tough decisions over the next few weeks.

I thought Kelli, Maggie, and Madeline all went last year when they were rookies

Last year, rookie KelliQ and Mandy went to Oxnard. Rookie Maddie and Mandy did not go. Just my opinion: they got to go because they needed blondes and these two were the top performers out of the blonde rookies at the time. (I MISS MANDY!!)

Lisa the DCC seamstress said a few week ago on her FB page that squad photo isn't scheduled until August 22 this year. I commented that it sounded awfully late and she said she was surprised as well. 

The first preseason home game is Aug 19th.... why would they wait until afterwards? That's strange!

Maddie and Maggie were at the Advocare convention last year.  It was either right before or right after Oxnard.

I think she means the scheduling of the squad photo. They'll of course have the team announced before the game.

 

Maybe its later because they have extra episodes this season and will be filming other stuff beforehand?

I've been looking into going to that game as well as I live in the Atlanta area. It's crazy how much they are going for !  I've been to other Falcons games and they were way cheaper. It's just because it's the Cowboys and people will pay it. The fan base in ATL is surprisingly big. 

I live in Atlanta too and I believe the tickets are higher because of the new Football Dome that opens this season. I think that it's really ridiculous to charge that much for tickets. The average household can't afford that!!

It would be great if we did get extra episodes this year. Season 7 remains one of my favorites because of the extra episodes they included.

Extended CMT season (episodes), squad photo is later because there are a few extra things going on this season. We don't have to have the photo to announce....it's been done with cameos before.

Do you mean Kelsey L. (aka 50 yard line Kelsey)? If so, yes, she is a 2nd year vet and is in training camp :)

HaHa!  I prefer to call her "linebacker sacks the quarterback"  Kelsey!  HaHa.  She is one of my favorites!  Thank you so much for the information!  So looking forward to next week!

I think any cuts this week will happen tonight or tomorrow if they're practicing tomorrow. Especially after a break I feel like they'd give them a little time to get back into it.

I know Shelly said there were still rehearsals going on but I still feel like after some were on break there might be a grace period there. But what do I know I'm no where near Texas. LOL
