that correct and hired Amory DC as their head coach

Biggersville also lost their coach didn’t they?

Taylorsville was the better team last season. They were a veteran squad with several multi year starters. I think they had like 17 seniors. That’s a lot of seniors for any 1A school. The flip side of that is that they only had like 30 players, so that senior class was at least half of their entire roster. I don’t think stringer loses to Tville this year.

Vott, I know you are partial to that North Jackson field. Crooked sidelines and all.

Biggersville graduated 13 seniors according to MaxPreps. QB, top 4 leading rushers, top 3 leading receivers, and top 6 leading tacklers. Them and Calhoun City I feel like will be in a definite rebuilding phase this year. That is why I put Leflore County at 2 in the state and above other north teams with them returning most of their offensive and defensive production from last season. I personally think the north is definitely wide open, with Simmons being the clear preseason favorite in the south although teams like Stringer, Nanih Waiya, and maybe even Taylorsville if they get hot again could give them a run for their money.

If they can get over the hump and beat Taylorsville, I think they could make a deep run as well. This should be the 2nd year in a row that Stringer is favored “on paper”, but the last two matchups they have played against them have been disappointing to say the least. It will be interesting to see if the outcome changes with Taylorsville having to hit the road.

Boy have the ole miss PR folks altered Petes look. all clean shaven and a suit and a tie. He talked all day yesterday and said basically nothing.

I think these 2 will be ethe cream of the crop up north MS. There just aren't many 1A teams with much talent at all.

That is the best field in Jackson. That is Forest Hill homefield as well

South Jackson.

Cleveland Central is 5a and will play for the North half more than likely in 5A vs Point City.

Biggersville will be really good. I don’t know a ton about them but I believe they have a lot returning. Calhoun City will be right back in the mix. I like Nanih Waiya as a sleeper.

Winona is absolutely loaded in every single grade. They will be very competitive and should represent the North Half of the state. I know it’s hard to bet against Noxubee County but the team Winona has is ridiculous. They have 4-5 legitimate D1 players in 3A.

A sleeper in 3a south could be West Marion. They are solid every year but just cant seem to get past round 2

What’s it looking like this year? Personally I think the south is a little stronger than the north overall but I think the best overall team could come from the north in Winona. I think Raleigh and Seminary will determine who comes from the south. Seminary to me personally is getting totally disrespected. They return most of their team from last season and yet many people have them ranked behind PCS. I know everybody is high on Winona right now, and I am too. They were already going to be really good and have added some good transfers over the summer. So they probably will be the favorite early on. But Raleigh is always strong defensively and knows how to pound the ball and control the clock. I think them and seminary both have a team that could beat them. My top 5 right now: Winona Raleigh Seminary Noxubee County PCS

I don’t know why my first post said I have watched him play since flagrant football. It was supposed to say flag football, lol. But yea, I think Gordon will be a big key for them this season. Honestly I think they win their region and make a deep run.

Their school enrollment may be dropping off, but their athletic rosters are not. They lost a lot of seniors from their defense but they return most of their offensive starters from last season, and they likely still have at least 40 or more on their roster. They will be the preseason #1 ranked team in 2A.

With Heidelberg enrollment at the bottom of 2A they may have lost enough talent to help East Marion or whomever knock them off.

That's the word I got too. They are cocky as hell. They are about to get hit some with that schedule though.

That's a lot of Hwy 49. A road that the lanes seem to smaller after dark.

Gordon will be the guy. After him, the returning guys that will take reps in the backfield had a combined 16 carries last season. Lots of inexperience for sure, but luckily they will have a veteran offensive line to build a foundation around as the season goes along.

Petal often times wins this game off coaching and discipline alone… even when they prob shouldn’t on paper.

Which field does it have WJ playing jim hill at?

West jones ends the season at Forrest hill, at terry, host Hattiesburg, at Jim hill.

I like Simmons, Stringer, and Nanih Waiya in the south. If Stringer can find a replacement for Campbell, they should be really solid. I’m assuming the young 10th grader Gordon will be who they plan to take over as their next guy. I have watched him play since flag football, and coached again him every year he played youth football. He was always a good back.
