MS/Al Game selections

I know every year someone is complaining about someone being left off. But Kaden Irving of Gautier not being selected in an injustice. When are we as coaches gonna do what’s right and pick the most deserving players. No way Howard or Hubbard are better QBs. I agree Hubbard should be on the team but as an athlete not a QB. Neither one of these guys are in the top 25 this year in passing. The selection process is a joke. “I will put your guy on if I get my guy on.” Every year deserving players get over looked because of politics among coaches.

I totally agree. I also think they over look small school players who deserve to be on there. Politics in high school sports is hurting our young athletes, because coaches don’t have the heart to stand up and do what is right.

Small schools absolutely get overlooked. It's a shame too

Is he being contacted by any juco programs?

Everybody has an opinion. Mine, after seeing most of Hubbard’s games and quite a few of Irving, is that Hubbard is a winner, able to do so much more than any QB in the state. I’d rather not compare these two other than to say that I wish they both had been picked.

Well something must be up with the Gautier player if nobody has any idea whether he is even being recruited.  I know coaches who will take a look if Irving has somehow slipped through the cracks at this point. Are grades an issue?

He is committed to play baseball at Ole Miss, I know. One of the top athletes in the state.

There’s certain requirements that have to be met to be in this game. Just because a kid doesn’t get picked doesn’t mean it’s “politics” it may just mean the requirements put the coaches in a position they couldn’t take a kid.

Then let's have some transparency about these "requirements"

it’s not hard to find out the rules if you look. You basically have 40 spots with 2 used on kickers. Every classification has to be represented and every geographical district has to be represented.

2a north player is a long snapper, and I don't see a 1a north player.

Irving is a beast! Not sure who Howard is but I do agree Irving should be on any All Star team based on his game alone!

 

I disagree that Hubbard should be anywhere other than QB on the All Star team. He's averaging over 1000 yds per season rushing and passing for all three years. He'll probably be over 1000 yards in both rushing and receiving after this week with 3 games left plus playoffs.  If this is a career award, then being Mr Football in 6A as a junior and being undefeated again this season on one of the States best teams puts him at the Top of the list. He's led OS to only 2 regular season losses in three years. Both of those were as a sophomore! He's earned his spot for sure!

Mack Howard is a 3 star Quarterback committed to play football at Utah. His high school HFC is the HFC of Team Mississippi. ZERO chance they were going to leave him out of this game. Bray Hubbard has numerous Group of 5 offers to play Quarterback and is committed to the University of Alabama as a Safety. He is also the reigning Mr. Football for the Highest Class in Mississippi (he probably is the favorite to win it this year as well) as a Quarterback. No chance you leave him off either. Irving is insanely talented and I am truly perplexed by the fact he only has 1 offer to play college football (FCS Central Arkansas). Irving is deserving of being an All-Star Quarterback but there is far more to this than just "stats" in my opinion.

As far as Irving is concerned the only issue I would see with college football coaches contacting him is the possibility of going to the MLB draft right out of high school. Yeah he’s committed to Ole Miss in baseball but that means nothing when the big money comes calling at 18 years old. I think they got the 2 qbs right for the MS/AL game. The 4 selected for the Bernard Black Allstate game will make for a great game as well

Whatever those requirements are Kaden Irving exceeds every one of one them. No offense to anyone picked, but there is no excuse for Irving not being selected for the MS/AL game.
