Anybody got a Simpson and Lamar score

Rankings are out

Nobody will want to go watch a game in Jackson. They will do it, but they won’t want to do it.

They were supposed to release all the other rankings and stuff today but I guess they are waiting until tonight?

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

However they want to do it. Right now we don’t have enough teams to justify having 7 classes. Adding the MAIS would make it a little better.

I kind of like the idea to be honest. Especially if we gonna have 7 classes

It’s not a terrible list

Normally I feel the same way but this year is my oldest son’s senior season and I don’t want it to be over. I want it to begin but I don’t want it to begin all at the same time. It’s a weird feeling. If anything, I wish I could go back to when he was playing youth football and start all over again. Gonna be an emotional year for me

So is the MHSAA and MAIS about to merge to make 7 classes more reasonable ?

It really was stupid to go to 7 classes. If anything we only needed 5 classes.

Honestly, Im thinking 2-8. And I’m never that down on enterprise.

The on3 high school rankings and predictions are horrendous.

Anybody got a link to capital sports?

I don’t like long road games

Region 8 could be a really competitive region next season. East Marion is going to be really really good, and both collins and north Forrest have a good group coming back. East Marion also added a transfer from west Marion, though I don’t know anything about the player. This region will be matched up with region 6 in round 1. That could be some really good matchups

Lamar chose that for themselves

Have they had some folks transfer out?

If I’m picking a sleeper this year, I’m gonna pick Collins. I think they could surprise some people. I think they finish 2nd in the district behind east Marion, but wouldn’t be totally shocked if they ended up winning the region. They always have good looking athletes. I still can’t believe they haven’t consolidated with Mount Olive yet.

That’s not the case for Forest. Forest will have already played their first region game, and would have had Raymond the next week after Raleigh. They just chickened out. There’s no other explanation.

I don’t buy their reasoning either. They just didn’t want to play the game.

Pretty sure I picked Tville to beat Stringer last year. I said all year last year that Tville had a good starting 11, but not much depth. Last year it came down to Simmons and Tville. This year I think it’s Simmons and stringer

Lamar called us and told us the MAIS was re-doing all the scheduling for private schools and were going to have to cancel our scheduled game. But then later on Lamar released their schedule, and had an open date on the week we were supposed to play them. I take that as they just didn’t want to play us. And it was going to be a home game for them.

We tried to schedule Choctaw during that bye week but their AD wouldn’t agree to it. We were going to travel to their place too.
