I know. I’m just giving yall a hard time in this slow season. There’s another from NW rankin that’s a basketball player also that yall trying to get. A lot of kids all over the state go to various camps and get in text/message groups either each other through various apps and such. And some are actively using this to convince others to come join them x team and what not. Particularly if one of the other kids have family in an area. Some coaches get them as well. This is also partly why some kids parade they are moving on social media like the college kids do. MHSAA is aware and won’t or can’t do anything about it unless a coach complains. And even then MHSAA is limited. Most coaches do not want to hold kids back that do not want to play for them. Only coaches who are butthurt at the kid or the school they are going too will say anything. And in almost every case if kids parents or school district take things to court against mhsaa if they stop a kid then judge almost always rules against mhsaa as they have no legal authority. This is why many trying to get senate to pass laws and possibly reformat the mhsaa.

The kid from Brandon is coming because his father was named the head baseball coach at Hattiesburg.

money talks each and every time.

Looks like Hattiesburg’s poor performance at WR in the spring game convinced them to go recruit some wr’s to transfer in. 6’3 kid from fcahs and a kid from Brandon

I haven't heard them mentioned. Are they really included in this?

So what’s the odds that this applies to Choctaw Central since they are considered private and a boarding school…I think we all know the answer to this question.

Will Elliott go 6 plus tonite?

Wayne Co and Natchez will love seeing that they may possibly in the same region. Enjoy that weeknight volleyball basketball baseball road trip.

That's correct unless they are 8 on the coast. Never mind projections are; Region 3: South Jones, Wayne County, Natchez, Florence, Laurel, Brookhaven, North Pike Region 4: Gautier, Stone County, Vancleave, East Central, St Patrick

Connor Breland new Head Football Coach.

They have done it in the past Some teams it will next to impossible for them to compete. St. Pats wouldn't be able to compete in 5A outside of soccer. Resurrection almost didn't have enough kids to finish football in 1A shifting to 2A will be tough for them too. With the new 5/7 setup they may not have to shift to Region 3.

Playing independent in football would be a nightmare scheduling wise. After September 99% of teams are playing region games. And who would want to play independently knowing that before the season that you have no shot at competing for a playoff spot?

St Patrick's number for October 2025 US News and World Report for October 2025 makes them likely 5A. Travel the coast it will be unless they go Region 3. Region 3 will send them to Natchez and Brookhaven travel it is. The deadline to move to MAIS may be past if the current reclassification runs thru 2027.

Supposedly a few are saying they will go independent to give them more time.

I tend to agree, but travel could be an issue for some of them if they go MAIS. Tupelo Christian, St Patrick, and Resurrection don’t have many MAIS options that wouldn’t involve significantly more travel. I’ll be curious how this plays out.

I wonder why most, if not all, wouldn't go MAIS. They'd have much better competition

Correction: St Patrick to 5A but I will recheck OLA to 4A Louisville top 4A pending an adjustment up.

I got a feeling that was sarcasm when you typed that. lol

ok, pretty much

Auburn was my national title pick before the tourney so I guess I’ll stick with my guns and say Auburn wins in 3. I think their pitching is good enough to give OM trouble and they do enough at home to come out ahead. My heart wants to say State wins, and I think they can get a game, but I feel like the bullpen has been a blinking red light for a while now and I worry they’re gonna have a hard time closing out this Georgia offense. If it goes to a Game 3 I think I also like UGA’s third stater better than Stone. So I’ll say UGA wins it in three as well. As for the other Supers: Bama over St. John’s Oregon over Texas (this is my big upset pick for the weekend) Kansas over Oklahoma West Virginia over Cal Poly Little Rock over Troy UNC over USC

Its pretty much all grown talent from there. I have a nephew at sumrall who will be a senior this coming yr and pretty much all the boys on the baseball team are players I have seen him grow up with since they were old enough to start playing ball. Even though hes not on the team I can confirm that is homegrown talent that has played a lot of travel ball together.

Does Sumrall grow all the baseball talent there local or is there some(ahem) relocating involved?
