This weekend is y'alls biggest recruiting event of the year, right? I plan on being there to monitor the situation and maybe grab a bite of cornbread!

What in the cat hair is an Innovation Academy?  That's a bunch of mess.  Those boys are really good or really bad because they have Brentwood Academy, MASE and Bradley Central on their schedule and have enough money to travel all over TN and Ohio. 

First year of 11 man football.   That's a tough enough schedule for anyone.  Looks like instead of easing themselves into this, they are jumping in head first.

The Commercial Appeal is reporting that MLK Prep is closing at the end of the school year.  Its returning students will transfer to Trezevant for the 2024-2025 school year.

Will Trez remain 2A after the influx of another 2A school?

The real purpose of the post was to rub salt in this fresh wound following FF’s departure to BGA.

Nope.  

Harvey's Pirate Drive-In in South Pittsburg was an all time favorite.  Of course I'm biased but many out of towners would testify.

 Ok, well it all started to spiral out of control for me after the season-ending ER massacre.  I have been the first patron to arrive at The Iron Horse & the last one to leave 6 days/nights per week.  I haven't held a job since 1983 bc I made a fortune future trading pork bellies.  Anyway, Coach Tyre is a sharp dude who has given a lot to the community & I'd guess he's after his pork belly-but this is mostly speculation & Homer sticks to facts...

 The new coach is a fiery winner.  He played Qb/S for Cascade before getting drafted in MLB & pitching in the minors. Despite his athletic success, I get the impression that he is still salty about losing to Forrest 23-20 & again 33-27.  He was the OC for a 7a school than won the state championship in 2021 & glancing at the scores from this past season, he had them scoring well again, despite, I think,  a 6-5 record... I'm not sure if he's met the players in person yet--but this past week there was a video-call & I had several of them say they were impressed & looking forward to getting to work.

Last month the Champions acquired a Scary monster of a D-Lineman--uh dang homeschooling behemoth-no clue how they kept this kid hidden for so long-- but I got in his ear a little bit already & he already don't like Chapel Hill.

  Sadly, A top returning player is considering transferring to Webb.  Please join me in prayer- as together-if it be God's will, we can pray the gay away & he will choose to stay.

Additionally, I hope the DC stays right where he's at--I think that's the plan but I haven't had it confirmed-prolly get a phone call any day now.  I considered writing an open letter to the new coach explaining that the DC is a fiery winner too-but I ultimately decided that'd be weird and Forrest-like.

Hopefully they have some fun playing. Good place to be at. 

It was hard to watch L.V. last year.  It was that bad I thought.

Everyone is still enjoying the basketball season I guess. 

Dug too big of a hole tonight to get out.

Still a good year for round ball in Pirate country.  

Pirates come up short tonight.  

Still a good year for us.

We've only played in a state tournament basketball game just once.

Hopefully we can kick that door down and become a regular participant. 

Good luck to all the teams heading to the Glass House.

Go Pirates!!

Good year Pirates!  

Good luck to the rest of yall.
