highly doubtful just looking at the roster. go ahead and add them to the list of team who will not challenge kosy or louisville.

What does playing Jackson schools have to do with playing at a neutral site?

Probably will never be neutral site games. But there are some current 4A schools probably moving to 5A under 8 classes playing some Jackson schools.

Rosa Fort and 4A north might not be that very strong this year like it was last 2 years

Why would you want to lose a home game and play at a neutral site? You play at a neutral site then after you pay the cost to rent the field and pay their people who provide security among other things, you end up losing money

I have no information anywhere near anything saying that shannon will even be close to the 3rd best 4 a team in the north. provide some info on their personnel as it related to who all they lost from the team last year. Iahs will be improved simply due to being young last year and I hope that shannon is better than houston but am not sure so saying all that, I doubt any team in their region comes close to the 3rd best team in the north. Corinth mite be the best team in the north not called kosy or louisville simply due to returning talent. New Albany will be okay but lost a 4* OT and a 4 yr starting QB and then you have possibly senatobia. other than the teams I just mentioned, there are no others who are really very good at all.

Shannon will be in the mix with them teams

D'Iberville will definitely fly under most radars, but I promise they will be in the mix when it all clears imo.

Been told they may not be as good to start the season. Their RB is back but some new kids are going to have step up.

I think this may have started out with a question of why did you take PCS. It turned into a split down discussion. Then the Florida Alabama Georgia thing comes up. Now we have to discuss keeping private schools south of Hattiesburg in our associations. Maybe it turned into a merger maybe a scheduling agreement which I can see happening. Maybe the multiplier goes away in a complete merger maybe it is negotiated down. If and whatever the outcome a merger is going to be interesting in the classes: 7 or 8, # per region, 8 man, etc. Then the scheduling next year. Lots of discussion. If your Tri County and your in a region with Mize don't be scared to come on down to Sullivan's Hollow on the hill. If your Starkville Academy and your 5A at Provine come on down or let's have a neutral game at East Central or somewhere. A merger has to all in or else. It will take some getting use to.

A pretty significant portion of their defensive production and a few offensive weapons. However, they will probably have the best player on the field in almost every game they play in the regular season at Quarterback for them so they should be fine.

They don’t seem to be as high on Diberville as other rankings are. What all did diberville lose from last season?

You may be right, but I find that hard to believe. To begin with MHSAA schools aren't going to want a merger without a multiplier for the private schools. And I'm sure that's just one of many sticking points between the two that will be an issue.

From the start of these rumors, I felt the same way. I do not really see what they specifically would benefit from in moving to MHSAA. Would they get more money from gates, etc.? I also do not see the MHSAA letting MRA, Prep, etc. compete in 3A with numbers and talent pool good enough to compete and win higher classifications.

.

Then I question all MAIS especially Louisiana schools staying around. Its obvious they could be paired up with the SW Ms schools in Region play.

I didn't think so because I remember video of the lines being drawn. They were not straight at all.

I have not. I was mainly speaking to football, but you are right. It would be different numbers overall.

North Jackson is not turf.

I would say you have to keep it if your instituting it for all MSHAA private schools.

You may have already done the math i don't know. You have to consider all MAIS schools since some don't play football as well.

You could not pay me enough to watch 8 man football. Be like watching Arena football. I tried watching arena ball when it was in Biloxi. After the first quarter I left. Just didnt feel like football. I think watching 8 man football would be the same way if I watched it.

Justification above 5 classes.

Will the multiplier go away?

I believe the Jackson fields are artificial turf now. Getting there and getting out safely from the bad streets and gangs. Actually I have no clue about NW Jackson fields. Provine is artificial turf and you drive straight in from hwy 80 and out.
