Vott Posted September 21, 2025 Share Posted September 21, 2025 Two teams from the old Big 8 Conference days. This series has been dominated by the Wildcats. Tigers need this to have a good feeling going into the bye week before region play starts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldogs4 Posted September 21, 2025 Share Posted September 21, 2025 Yep. Meridian should be 0-4 but don’t let the 2-2 record fool you. There is talent on the team but the coaching is “well if you can’t say something nice, then don’t say anything at all” The above phrase is was abused Friday night. Hattiesburg will name the score come Friday night. Painful to write that but the truth does hurt sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccbulldog Posted September 28, 2025 Share Posted September 28, 2025 when will the Meridian administration finally put Shelton Gandy out of his misery. He is one of the worst head coaches I've seen in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is one of the worst head coaches I've seen in a while. Isn’t this only his first season there? it doesn’t take much looking to realize Meridian is a dying city. Population shrinking like mad. Loss of population = loss of talent. They may not be a threat again till they drop to 4a in a few years. Will be something like moss points fall from the training the largest classification to a struggling in the middle of a middling classification.

Not conditioned in preseason, lost in the secondary, OL is rather confused. Just an absolute cluster. Almost as bad as Laurel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulldogs4 Posted October 1, 2025 Share Posted October 1, 2025 Meridian is not a dying city but sadly the football program is but a shell of its former glory. There is talent on the team but the coaching is abysmal. Boyles had a good thing going in just one year but we have regressed badly ever he left. Cheyenne is a good AD and I think he has done an overall excellent job. But he totally whiffed on this hire IMO. You hate to pull the plug on any coach but at the end of this year, I don’t think he has any choice but to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are still plenty of black athletes in the school, but the problem is getting them off the streets on Friday nights and on the football field and then getting them coached to be able to be competitive in 7A. Boyles was able to do it, but Gandy is doing nothing but drawing a pay check. Pitiful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slicklizard Posted October 1, 2025 Share Posted October 1, 2025 Ol Shetland at it again. The argument could be made be started the slide Wayne County is is experiencing now. He’s a cool dude and a top player in Waynes past but he’s no leader of a football department. None . Not from 1A on . He doesn’t show passion for it or makes it a lifestyle . He’s always the first one leaving the field house to get home : It’s a job to him and one he acts like he’s being forced to be at . The best thing Meridian could do is quit hiring retreads and try to hit on a young coach with no head coaching past. Marcus give you guys a taste of what could be done there. If he had hung around till this season he would have found more horses and been a team nobody would any part of come playoff time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City actually has some forward momentum going right now on several fronts. Slick, you are correct. The football program can be good again. A good young coach who can engage with the kids can make us a good again. CC is correct that sadly most of the white community has moved out in the county or their kids go to Lamar/Russell Christian. Not sure if that can ever be reversed, unfortunately. But the football program with the right coach can be good again. Hopefully it will happen at the conclusion of this season. And Vott you are correct that Norman has done a good job with the basketball team. We will see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
