CrimsonUnit1988 Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Just now, Big Poppa said: Ok. They held EC to 7 and EC is struggling big time for some reason. They gave up 28 to Greene County. If that is vastly improved then so be it. The competition heats up in the future. Ok man. Have you watched them? Have you seen the skill players at Greene? Greene has two D1 WRs and a really good offensive scheme. Pascagoula held EC to 7 as well but we're not heaping on them. Anyway, they're improved. It shows. This helps both sides. You get your QB back and another starting safety back and they're both big time athletes. Obviously the jury is still out but the eye test definitely says they're better on defense and they run the ball better offensively than a year ago.

Big Poppa Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Ok we will see, all I said is they have been soft on defense for the last couple years and I didn't say anything about their offense. Good luck to GC I hope they are improved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are going to play hard but they are not as good up front on the offensive line as they have been. Probably be a year or two before we see them get back to the level of competing they have the last 6-7 years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoWammies Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Going home to 2-0 sure looks better than leaving 1-2. Knight def got some experience though going against IMG and Saraland. Not too many can say in a season they went against the best in FL, AL and MS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just another team to join the lottery of who is going to lose to Picayune Thanksgiving week. LOL. Then we might as well not discuss 6A south at all. I do think it will take a dynamic QB such as Knight to actually keep up with or beat Picayune though. No one else has a player like him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was definitely some pertinent information and who knows what will happen? It'll definitely shake some things up now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that's correct. Anything can happen, but the weather down here in Picayune isn't as adverse as it is in Oxford. I was out mowing my grass on Dec. 31st. back in 2021 and I never thought I'd have to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wareaglefan1us Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 I’m wondering what happened in Tennessee? They were all hell bent to cherry pick players what happened to send them home?

choctawman Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 (edited) My son is a coach and here is what he said. They played 2 games there so they will have to miss 2 games at GC. This rule was changed last year. Edited September 7, 2023 by choctawman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told neither player had planned to return but were forced to return due to some behind the scenes work from George County. Obviously could be he said/she said and completely false.

There is you guys in Oak Grove, a nice gap and then everyone else. That does not mean you guys cannot be beaten, it just means in my opinion unless you guys drop the ball so to speak, nobody should beat you because you have great players and coaches mixed with lots of big game experience. Just because I do not see it the way you do, does not mean we cannot have a discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you have more sources down there than I do but I don’t see how they could be forced back to GC. I’m guessing their families had moved as well. They made a choice one they thought would better their children. It was an academy heck even if the parents didn’t move they may have dorms. Rather we as fans like it and I Don’t but with NIL deals we’re going to see more of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonUnit1988 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 (edited) Can anyone find the rule about this? I've looked and unless I'm overlooking it, I can't find one about a player having to sit in this situation. The caveat is always being a MEMBER school and Lipscomb is not a member of MHSAA. Not sure if there's a precedence for this. I always come back to this one: 2.24.1 Students of member schools who attended non-member Mississippi private schools during the preceding school session may return to their home school without loss of residence eligibility. Anyway, I don't know. Edited September 7, 2023 by CrimsonUnit1988 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastfootballfanman Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 (edited) When a player transfers in from out of state, they are required to go through a "two week acclimatization period" no matter how many games they may have played previously for their other team. They are technically "eligible" they just have to sit through these next two weeks to acclimatize.

They must go through the 14 day acclimatization period. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
