It's put on by the Mississippi Association of Players and there will be a Mississippi vs. Mississippi game and a Mississippi vs. Louisiana game. The kicker with these games is that they are open to underclassmen as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logo looks a little too close to another logo that makes it seem "officially" linked. I'm always suspicious in this day and age of these type of things. Seems like another money grab by someone. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Hope it's legit. Hate that they will play at Valley though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pancho Posted November 20, 2025 Share Posted November 20, 2025 sounds like dangerous street ball. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please correct me if I'm wrong. Hope it's legit. Hate that they will play at Valley though It is definitely not something that the MHSAA/MAIS is associated with. The ones that are putting this on are having to have a "draft" and its taking place somewhere in Hattiesburg. This has EPIC FAILURE written all over it. And if you have to sign up to play, are you really an all star? Edited November 20, 2025 by Vott adding to quote 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Former Coach Posted November 20, 2025 Share Posted November 20, 2025 I don't know if the rules have changed, but at one time if the game was not sanctioned by the MHSAA then underclassman would not be allowed to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football In MS Posted November 20, 2025 Share Posted November 20, 2025 Another “everybody gets to be an all star” game. GREAT. Just what we need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chunky6617 Posted November 20, 2025 Share Posted November 20, 2025 (edited) Sounds to me like something these travel ball influencers would be involved with. Sounds like a terrible idea to me and I hope it flops. Edited November 20, 2025 by Chunky6617 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty Shackleford Posted November 20, 2025 Share Posted November 20, 2025 Appears you have to be a member to be drafted and it’s 125 dollars a month to have a membership lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastball Posted November 20, 2025 Share Posted November 20, 2025 This has ripoff and danger written all over it. Typical AAU and 7 on 7 All star nonsense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a player goes down with injury, school insurance will not cover this whatsoever. This medical bill would come out of the pocket of the parents of the player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choctawman Posted November 20, 2025 Share Posted November 20, 2025 I think I am correct on this. Any school that is a member of the MHSAA has to get permission for this to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has travel ball culture written all over it. That crap is ruining athletes right now. A bunch of washed up grown men trying to live out coaching fantasies thru kids, while pretending they are only doing it for the kids exposure. And too many parents gobble that crap up.
