Louisville is a very good class 4A team, probably the best in the State, but they will not be able to beat a very good 7A team like Starkville or a top team from Louisiana like John Curtis.

Meridian is at Starkville and no it will not be close. And I would be surprised if Louisville won.

Yes I agree, Meridian is much better in all aspects than last year but they were historical bad last year with zero coaching. They are still not back to competing for the district crown but maybe now they can compete for the 4th playoff spot.

where is this game being played?

you don't know much about John Curtis if you think Louisville will beat them 35-0. Louisville will be lucky to win.

I think last night was the true Meridian, some very good players surrounded by some not so good players, lots of mental mistakes, lack of focus, not really taking direction very well from the coaches. It was a game they should've won but the listed problems prevented it. And to make matters worse, Nesboba is probably the 3rd worst team on their schedule. That first week was fools gold. And I admit I was fooled.

Nobody on the coast is gonna be challenging Gulfport this year. Meanwhile Dist. 3 7A is gonna be a dogfight. Brandon and Oak Grove both have slipped a little and Meridian is vastly better.

I thought you two hated each other.

1) Meridian has always had athletes but it takes the right motivator to make them want to care about football. 2) Vance is that Motivator, He especially knows how to get the most out of the black players. He relates to them in a special way. 3) The players looked very much in game shape, much more than the Ocean Springs players. 4) I'm not from the coast but I can't imagine the Wells case had much to do with this game. He had already graduated plus most of the uproar came from outside the State. 5) This blowout is exactly what this downtrodden program needed to make the players even more motivated and willing to work harder and follow Vance's direction.

Not True, I'm still here. Just not much to boast about anymore. I remember the day Weems retired, I said on here that Meridian was at a crossroads and depending on the route they took would determine their future. Unfortunately, save for one miraculous season with Marcus Boyles, Meridian has gone in the wrong direction. But man those days when Meridian-Oak Grove and Wayne Co.-West Jones were the biggest rivalries in south Miss. that was when this board was on fire. I long for those days but doubt they will ever return. Meridian is on the verge of dropping to 6A.

Mississippi doesn't even have enough high schools for 6 classes much less 7. And no matter how many you have, no more than half should make the playoffs. When 4 out of 6 division teams make the playoffs, it becomes like a trophy for everyone. Ridiculous!

wise career choice

I read where they named a new head coach today, David Frey.

That's terrible, first 3 on the road and only 4 home games.

can someone post Meridian Schedule
