If Marcus Boyles couldn’t win state at petal no one else will either.  The only reason they made it that one time to state is they had a once every 30 year type player and 6A that year was like 5A this year.  
 

People at petal letting their jealousy of oak grove driving their thought process.  Couldn’t handle oak grove got a nice stadium so they built a bigger one with fancier stuff to say they had something over OG.  And can’t fill that thing to half capacity 98% of the time. 

Petal’s stadium has been in the works way before Oak Grove built their stadium. Those plans were being made when the high school was playing on the middle school field. Nothing about jealousy to be honest there’s really nothing to be jealous of. And when has Oak Grove filled their stadium?? I’ll wait….

They had one of the best if not the best coaches in Mississippi. Marcus Boyles couldn’t get a title there I don’t know who will. Another example Coach Barr won a lot of games at Petal but no titles. He left for OG at a time when OG wasn’t winning and turned that into a championship program.

I’m not downgrading Petal at all very good School great facilities. I just don’t know what it would take to win at football there.

I would imagine there are 3 coaches in the mix who are playing for titles this weekend. If I had to guess probably Reynolds at West Jones. Petal’s biggest problem right now is they are a smaller 7a school. Just need the community to support football more than academics and show choir. Need more kids playing at junior high and working their way through to hs football.

The thing is Corey was in the building at Petal and was looked over as HC. So he went to OG I believe for a year before taking the WJ job. With what he brings back I can’t see him leaving. I could be wrong it definitely wouldn’t be the first time lol.

Corey reynolds is not leaving west jones for petal. Petal didn’t want him before and he is only being mentioned now due to the success he has had at west jones this year.  Better fan support at west jones plus there’s rumors of facility upgrades coming across all athletics in the 3 jones county high schools.

Merlin, did you ever get an attendance number for last week’s game?  I was just curious what the count was.

The Wing T has evolved into a passing game. So for those that run it it can be successful with more and better available talent at Petal and larger schools. Can they beat Oak Grove and Brandon I am not sure. Time will tell. Woodrow needs a few years to be ready to move up. The Taylorsville Seminary West Marion offense can be dangerous with the right talent.

I think it’s been established that petal doesn’t have the talent.
