It's nice to see you back WABO. One of the OG mods LOL.

Went to Bay a couple of years ago and they didn't take cash or GoFan. Ended up getting in for free because they were having trouble with their credit card reader.

The more classes the more playoff games the more money for the MHSAA. Do the playoff math. It's all about the Benjamins.

Leake High School will be only gofan this year. No cash will be accepted at the gate. This is for all sports.

Well. That certainly took a direction.

I appreciate the reply coach, but I don't think it will be as much of a struggle for Petal as it would be first game jitters. With these early games, off season conditioning plays a much bigger factor. While you wait, you need to hydrate. (No, I'm not talking about Redneck Rivera either LOL).

NOBODY looks and says "Oh I want to go to HHS" with the other options in the area.

To hell yall don’t have people bragging about it. It may not be a coach, but certainly someone who gets first hand knowledge. Let me see if I can get those screenshots sent back to me. I’ll show you. But you may not like the chances of MHSAA seeing them.

HHS don't brag about recruiting most players just come over here. We had players transfer over then transfer back, Had a few players this year transferred out to local schools and Texas.

I always felt like that in a way. but we will see. EDC DATE

Petal lost 25+ players to graduation. SO its going to be a struggle for both teams HHS will have the edge defensively for sure. Lacy era EDC get our lick back.

Maybe or maybe not we'll see.

If that’s true, then that explains it. It also means that nothing‘s gonna change. Their next move will be 3 team regions with eight classifications.

You might want to tone it down a little bit coach. When the right people complain they gonna come for you and they will shut you down again. I don’t know if you was around for that, but it did stop it. I think Vance had already been involved in some shenanigans that involved the good oh boy network stepping in and reeling him back in. So he kept a lid on it at HHS. Lacey is about to get a lesson on the hierarchy. With him not coaching in this state before he probably just thinks that’s the way business is done.

Ive heard after they pay out fees for the officials the MHSAA gets 30% of the gate.

That loser wrecks everything he touches and he’s never been held accountable for the destruction he has left in his wake. I have heard the increased revenue angle brought up before. It’s my belief that any uptick in revenue is more than lost by decreased attendance in the regular season. Do they get a larger share of the gate for playoff games than regular season?

7 classes was brought uo at annual meeting as I recall on the coast. I think it originated out of a district 5 annual meeting which Bubba was a part of at one time.

In 4A-1A can now go 4 regions top 8 make the playoffs. 2 stay at home probably will likely be the same 2.

IN 5A/6A you will always have dates available for a jug and a gator hunting trip for those 2 schools.

They did it to get more money off of playoff games and to some degree appease coaches wanting desperately to coach in the playoffs. It didn't work for 1A because 4 regions were enough. 4A-2A now has many open dates. 40 schools in a class should mean 4 regions. 48 schools in a class and you get 8 regions. Some schools are at 1 or 2 open dates and appx 10 schools some weeks are open. They won't play a school open 20 miles down the road. What ever they come up with in the future it should be a minimum of 6 schools per region all classes.

Multiplier I think would go away with a merger. I think its scheduling and other intangibles that take place ar facilities when a team plays on the road. Maybe some of yalk are little too aggressive with cheering when they play MHSAA schools.

You’re very good at deflecting. No way anyone as close to a program as you are to HHS, has no idea about what’s going on.

If you had not posted anything over the past few weeks about HHS getting transfers I would not have known anything about it. LOL You are a Jones Co guy but my source when it comes to players coming in to HHS. Thanks for informing me.

Pack was supposed to be at Hattiesburg. You don’t remember Steve McNair Jr? There was a kid from Columbia 2-3 years ago. They got a number from Bassfield a few years ago before they merged with prentis. Oh, right, as I said in prior post. Everyone else keeps a lid on recruiting and takes a couple kids a year at most. They dont recruit half a starting lineup and make lots of noise about it like Hattiesburg is doing.

Our coach (Casey Orr) likes to schedule at least one long trip, because he doesn’t want the kids first long trip to be a playoff game.
