do the athletes even have to have grades?

Always so interesting to me to see the huge slant these guys have towards Brandon and against OG. These guys have loved Meridian against everyone this year - even picked them over OG at OG (and were wrong) yet chose Brandon over Meridian (and were wrong). They feel like Brandon will be a really good matchup against the reigning state champs (Gulfport) but think Biloxi could potentially sneak up on OG and make it a “shoot out” (despite an AI prediction of OG over 90%) even though Biloxi has literally never beaten OG. Like ever. And OG has had a running clock against opponents more than once this year. I just don’t get the love letter to Brandon and fangirling over Meridian while poo-pooing OG’s production. Their takes are wild.

I was told Taylorsville and Newton County were switched on Raleigh 's schedule.

Academic fraud makes it sound like not a single athlete recruited can pass simple math and were given credit anyways. This may go really deep since multiple sports or involved. Maybe a professor who taught all of them spilt the beans because they were forced to give those kids a C or 2.0 to play.

Yes and I can see NJCAA penalties for intelligible players playing.

Ohh. Well that definitely changes things. Hate to see it. It’s always most enjoyable when both teams are at their peak

My understanding is Brandon's O weapons are injured so I doubt they hang with Gpt

That’s the game of the week in 7A for sure. Definitely the one I’m looking forward to and I think it’s a toss up.

It’s definitely not arrogance. It’s my opinion.

someone evidently haas been coerced into coming up off the pocket if they surround him with a quality squad.

Or play there. This is what has been simmering and nobody wanted to discuss. my gosh

will they beat brandon?

But can they keep Taylor healthy for an entire season? If you are paying him 7.5 million with incentives worth up to 9 million, there's no excuse not to be two deep with 4 & 5 star OL either.

Gulfport lost to Petal by 1 in regular season last year too and then hammered them in the playoffs. I'm aware Crosby isn't there this year but they're the defending state champs until they're not.

Newton county is play Raleigh week 3 next year

FCAHS is open.

Look for Ole Miss to bounce back in a big way with a convincing win over Oklahoma. 28-16. The Barn at State. The last five games State has easily outperformed the Barn in being terrible (sans the Georgia game). So I will take State to outworse The Barn by a losing score of 17-23. Texas@LSU. The SEC has designated that Texas is going to make the playoff this year so look for officiating to ensure that a repeat of last weeks TX-Mizzou game happens again. TX 24-20. Alabama has a let down after the big win at LSU. Vandy plays hard and well and gives Bama a scare before fading in the fourth quarter. Bama 32, Vandy 27. Missouri is a bad road team so look for Georgia to win easily 38-17. Mizzou has a couple of late scores to make the score more respectable. Florida-Kentucky. Weather is supposed to be in thirties for this game Saturday. Florida chills out and loses 25-14. SCAR-Arky. Arky has been improving and I look for this game to be more competitive than expected. SC pulls away late 35-24. Tennessee @ A&M. A&M salvages a disappointing season by upending an overrated Tennessee in spite of the officiating doing its best to ensure that Tennessee makes the playoff. A&M 18-Tennessee 16. All this speculation about Lebby will be put to rest now. Nobody in their right mind will fire the guy after what has happened this year on the injury front. I do agree that 2027 will be a playoff or bust season for State.

Nobody is going to want to go coach that

OM gets back on track in a close one. Auburn by 10 LSU makes next week’s 3 loss SEC talk more interesting. Bama UGA KY SC

Right. Taylor wouldn’t commit to coming back to State if Lebby wasn’t returning. As for confidence in getting quality portal guys, I thought that was the plan last year. lol. Now the pressure is on Lebby to beat TN Tech in two weeks. ***

That's just the MSJCAA penalties isn’t it? NjCAA may add on more.

Academic probation looks like all major sports academic fraud, no post season.

Retirement but you never know.

Please don’t tell me Coach Mangum is going down to get Marcus his three or four stops per game that he needs to win in the playoffs

Who ever gets the job needs good coaches around him.
