The Copperheads are officially Texas, not Katy. And the team may not end up in Katy, either...more on this from the Copperheads in the next couple of weeks.

Is there any truth to Memphis, Tennessee Valley and Arkansas folding ? Does anyone know anything?

I dont think there will be a wichita falls team but there will be a team in lubbock, thus making a 6 team texas division that should be called the Southeast. Alaska may not get in for the 2007 season and Chorpus is still negotiating.
The team is called the Texas Copperheads not katy anymore.

Memphis-some truth

Arkansas and TV...first I've seen of it.

Actually, both Southeast and Southwest wouldn't make any sense considering that Texas is neither of the two. South Central would be more like it.

She (whoever "she" is, I'm assuming the Gunslingers owner) has stated that they will either stay in the NIFL or join the new UIFL. Truth is, she doesn't have the stacks to go af2 on her own anyway. That franchise is a joke. The NIFL is probably the only league that would accept them at this point.

However, the af2 will most likely be in Lubbock for 2007, with or without the Gunslingers, probably without.
