Sullie517 Posted December 20, 2024 Share Posted December 20, 2024 10 hours ago, Vott said: How did the thread go from Hattiesburg to Oxford? Because the point was made that Starkville (Chris Jones) is being run off by his superintendent in order for the super to hire who he wants. Jones would be a good fit at Hattiesburg but if a college gig is in the mix I see him taking that. I quit going to games this year at Lafayette in favor of going to Oxford or driving to Tupelo and South Panola. Better football to watch week in and week out. Talent is bad at Lafayette as mentioned earlier but it’s not 0-10 bad. The coaching is very vanilla and the culture sucks. Period 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pancho Posted December 20, 2024 Share Posted December 20, 2024 Well, the superintendent mentioned is directly responsible. He retired from the state several years ago and worked in the insurance field awhile and is now evidently above reproach since he's back in education as a super. He has always seemed like a great guy but he has greatly damaged several sports there. Maybe the board and the parents are okay with the proceedings? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Golfer Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 Who does the Supt in Starkville want? Or just doesn’t want Coach Jones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pancho Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 The super has already began getting rid of coaches a few years back. Evidently the super disliked several HC"s there at starkville but Coach Jones is definitely disliked by the super. The super basically wants all HC's to be selected by the super alone.

Dubaction Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 Sounds like they want someone they can fully control. I don’t wish ill on programs but if they aren’t as fortunate with the next hire it’ll be pretty humorous to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pancho Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 that is exactly what the super desires. basically the same at Lafayette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Bert Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 The Supt is probably a control freak, better than Ms Betty, smart a**. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is exactly why they have fallen the last couple years. And it won’t get better any time soon. Their fans won’t admit it. But players that transferred there from other schools say the practices are easier. They aren’t made to run as much nor pushed as hard in the weight room. Go watch their games on YouTube and Facebook last year and the year before. Look how their physically massive lines were bullied around by everyone. Except the one guard who signed with LSU. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
