It's time to get started. I think most everybody will get underway this weekend.
Who will you be rooting for?

Charleston High

Can't stand the head coach, but I'll still root for them.

I just hope they haven't been reading the clarion liar lately, seeing how everyone thinks they'll be some badarse's this season. :lol:

charleston should be really good this year. I coached at South Pontotoc 2 yrs ago and ya'll ran all over us and the best I remember there were a lot of young guys on that team that should be seniors this year.

Class 3/4-3A

We've got a dandy dozen RB that thinks he's all world now after reading about himself in the clarion liar. He's been slacking during practice and in the weight room, reason he didn't play in the jamboree last week. Papers said he was held out for precautionary measures, but that had nothing to do with it. As for right now, he may not even play in the first game of the season against Senatobia friday night. He's an Ole Miss commit that will never see the field at Vaught-Heminghway, much less another school.

Charleston runs a rinky dink academy style wingback offense that is a joke. You can't win big games with it, which he found out when Hazlehurst won 14-0 in the state title game last year. Even though the head coach, whom happens to be a major dumbarse, says they had many offensive options this season, he doesn't....all he's got is the RB and a pretty good D. I honestly believe that if he had 3-4 Div 1 prospects at WR, he'd still run the Wing T and never pass it. :lol:

Quite possibly the game of the year, and maybe the true "state championship" game will take place in Clarksdale Friday night. The University of South Panola plays Clarksdale High. #1 versus #2 in the Clarion Ledger Top 10.

I imagine South Panola rolls just like always.

Side Note: MTV had a show on last night called Two-a-Days that follows Hoover High School, who at the time was the #2 ranked high school team in the nation. It appears to me that South Panola would run through them like crap through a goose.

Yep, in a weak booty division too. :lol: They played two good teams last season, and lost to both.

Academy football is funny as hell to watch. I've seen harder hitting in touch and flag football. :lol: I know a lot of you are academy guys, but academy ball can't touch public school, not by a long shot.

I'd venture to say 70-80% of high school teams in MS run some variation of T-formation or Wingback. I'm supposed to go watch the game tomorrow night, but I don't care to watch running play after running play after running play, and more than likely all three will be the same play.

If you aren't running an I-Slot or Ace Formation, I don't care to sit and watch. CHS has paid a good bit of money for the coaches to attend college seminars on multiple variations of offense in the past, but yet when it comes gametime, it's back to the same old boring crap, fake booty misdirectional running plays.

When I was in school we ran out of the Power I, which does give you some more options.

I will grant you that on the average player by player basis, the public schools are fairly superior, but there are some great athletes in the academy setting that don't get the respect they deserve because they play academy ball.

Different sport, but valid athletic comparison, this spring look at the 100 and 200 meter times in both public and private schools. Suprisingly, at most random meets across the state there is not too much of a difference in times. Most 100 winners in both public and private schools of comparable size have kids running around 11.0 or 11.2 in the 100. State meets are different.

You can't simply say that white boys can't hang. Look at Louisiana High School ball to spoil that argument.

Wayne County War Eagles fan here. Our first three games are at George County, Madison Central at home and at Moss Point. We could be 3 and 0 or 0 and 3 after those games but we will definitely be ready for district play.
