greenandgoldhawk Posted September 2, 2024 Share Posted September 2, 2024 Week 1 is out of the way. Most teams got a chance to get that first official game jitters out the way. A few more teams will get a chance to get their jitters out the way this week. Which game could-be/is an upset this week? It is pretty early, but I wonder who will play for the title this December ini Hattiesburg? THURSDAY Okolona at Calhoun City Potts Camp at Myrtle FRIDAY Ashland at Mantachie Baldwyn at Booneville Bay Springs at Taylorsville Biggersville at Heritage Academy Bogue Chitto at Salem Byers at Holly Springs Coffeeville at Falkner East Marion at Hazlehurst East Webster at Nanih Waiya Eupora at French Camp Hatley at Smithville Humphreys County at South Delta Leake County at McAdams Lumberton at North Forrest M.S.

Chunky6617 Posted September 2, 2024 Share Posted September 2, 2024 Taylorsville will more than likely be 0-6 before they start playing other 1A opponents. Once the weather cools off some closer to October, that will help them assuming they can stay healthy. They cannot afford to have any injuries, and they already have one from this past Friday night to one of their senior WR’s. I don’t know how long he will be out for. I don’t know how much longer Mount Olive will even continue to be a school. It’s just a matter of time before they end up merging with Collins. I think they may have 20 players, maybe not even that many. I think I counted 18 in their first game against Puckett and I know they have at least one 8th grader playing with them.

Mt Olive families will fight it. It will take legislative action to make it happen. Covington County has let both school buildings fall apart.

Which I don’t mind, that’s what voters and parents should do, they should be involved. But I think they made a mistake. It’s inevitable, the schools are gonna merge sometime in the next 4/5 years, IMO. Mount Olive barely has a high school squad, barely has a junior high squad, and they don’t hardly have anybody in elementary. It’s not sustainable.

It’s not sustainable. 2023-24 numbers were: 8th 30 largest class 9th 25 10th 28 11th 24 12th 25 graduated Personally a certain number should be maintained by every school. Below that number for say 3 consecutive years should trigger consolidation. Whether that number is 100 or 125 that should be up to the Legislature.
