All Activity

Based on data annually reported to government from cities, towns, and counties. It's kind of a secret census that the government can give grants, loans, etc for infrastructure as they request. More people you have the better.

Look for even larger numbers in the suburbs of Memphis, Tupelo, Oxford, Starkville/Columbus, Meridian, Jackson Metro, Natchez, Hattiesburg/Laurel, and the coast. Smaller numbers in the country side.

Their numbers should be doubled. That's probably why their already 4A.

Prayers and fight to get well.

Y'all hang tough.

Ill get it amped up when the season starts. Lol

it doesn't really take that much effort put into keeping it in line anymore. You can't even get a rise out of Vott these days. Laurel people ? Gone. I'm pretty tight with Merlin now. What kind of person would have a problem with SoSoDude ? Even Hathorne is having them roll him around in a wheelchair these days playing the disability racket. Like Alexander the great I kneel and weep because there are no more battles to be had. Your wife is probably the strongest person I know. She's showed so many how to keep going forward in the face of everything she's endured . She really was the best decision you ever made son . I really mean that

Prayers from the PRC Blue Devil Nation

prayers from up in north MS sent, brother.

When you take a look at the roster; yes Covid helped. Then factor in all the crazy sideline rules they tried to enforce with contact tracking and distancing… yeah

I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to everyone who’s texted, called dropped a message on here or however. Thank you all for the prayers for my wife and our family. As many of you know she’s fighting cancer for her fourth time. She’s scheduled for surgery Tuesday and will have chemo afterwards when she gets physically able. I have been on here since the beginning and have made many great friends and have meet several people. Have known Slick since our school days and WABO more years than we can count lol. Please all of you that will please keep praying for us this is the toughest fight yet on a tired body. They say she’s looking at 14 days in the hospital after surgery and then three to six months total recovery time from surgery. Again thank you all and Slick told me he would keep everyone straight in my absence so God Bless you All lol.

No

That Thigpen who was at St Stan?

and covid helped in all that?

I remember that Horn Lake game. And I believe that was chalked up as more of a socioeconomic thing than a fan interest thing.

I saw first hand the Louisville and Poplarville fan base at usm two yrs ago and the Columbia fan base at MS State last season. There are some fan bases at smaller schools that will outnumber some big schools. I remember the year Horn Lake came and played at USM and they hardly brought anyone.

Fans get tired of a going to away games for a month in a row. So they pick only a couple instead of attending them all

Right - which is why I said 2 games on Saturday (anytime). And I have a hard time seeing any 4A fan base outnumbering Gulfport, Tupelo, Starkville, Brandon, Oxford… There’s a reason those schools are 7A. Higher student population = higher attendance at championship games

Ref calls and no-calls, combined with sideline interference (that was also no-called)

Long as Coach HC Thigpen still there they will be competitor.

Might want to get some caffeine coming out of hibernation, but what about the home and home that West Jones and Jackson Prep had in ‘23 and ‘24? West Jones won 21-6 at home in ‘23 and Jackson Prep won 42-7 at home in ‘24. As long as teams are fairly evenly matched, MHSAA and MAIS schools can compete with one another. You can’t use the Coronavirus as an excuse for this example either.

What were the questionable tactics?

why is that?

There are quite a few good places in Starkville. Harvey steakhouse Walkons 44 Prime Buffalo wildwings and Applebees
