Being able to hit that reset button for Wayne County is probably a good thing. Glad y’all were able to get Kat in the boat.

On the new turf too. Gonna have to see pictures of it when it’s done.

It sounds like that superintendent needs to go sing with the Italian Castrati. He'd fit right in.

If there's anybody being overlooked in this bogus poll, it's West Jones.

Stone would be above Lafayette. Just disregard all of this.

I'm sure there's more errors. This thing needs to go to file 13.

Gautier isn't 5A anymore. You're gonna need a replacement and Ridgeland is 6A.

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.

State was also up a TD in game one as well. A good bullpen would have used that size of a cushion as leverage.

I didn't seem to find Howard Willoughby in the top 25 at the end of the video. I would have thought he would have made it. Glad to see Jack Carlisle make it though.

The only "for sure" wins on the schedule are UL Monroe and Tennessee Tech. I don't think State is favored in any of the 10 remaining SEC/Power 4 games. In order for State to get to 6 regular season wins, they'll need 4 upsets at minimum. If there ever was a prime example of a head coach being in over his head, this is it.

I'm glad you have that optimism. If they could win all 6 of those, I'd be thrilled.

Nevermind this apparently was an assistant. The article didn't read like that.

No, that was Makon. He graduated in May.

He's listed at MLB & RB on PRC's roster.

I know PRC got Egana from Picayune, but I don't know how much that moves the needle. That's definitely a solid prediction for Region 4.

We only had 4 home games last year as well. One year you'll travel a bunch and the next you'll have a good bit at home. Two years ago we had double digit (10) home games. That'll get you spoiled real quick LOL.

It’s on the Hudl fan app. I’ll try to get it posted later.

As bad as Long Beach has been, they’ve been in 6A the whole time since we went to 7 classifications. I’m not saying they would be favored against Gautier during the first week of region play, but they shouldn’t be as shell shocked as what Gautier was last year. Long Beach knows what to expect in 6A and they know they’ve got to play up and steal a district win if they want to stop the region play losing streak. I’d like to think Long Beach would have the numbers depth wise to counter a team like Gautier. They just need the motivation and the will to get a district win. They need to fight, dig deep and overcome the obstacles they face in a game while the game is still going on. If Long Beach can do that against Gautier, they’ll get their first district win since 2018 against West Harrison.

That’s a good question. I know that 6A hasn’t been kind to them, so if Long Beach wanted to stop that long region losing skid, that Gautier matchup would be a prime opportunity for them.

Merlin I can't remember if Picayune had any D1 players during that '11-'13 run. They just played good and were coached good.

It boils down to the non-region portion of the schedule to get teams prepared for region play and/or playoffs. I realize there's teams out there that schedule the non-region portion as it correlates to skill set, but you don't want it to be 5 cupcakes either. You need some animal protein in there somewhere.
