McNairy Central Bobcats have some talent but are very young with ten freshmen and five sophomores on a roster of 17.

Some good athletes moving up from 8th grade Selmer, Bethel Springs, & Ramer for Coach Truett to develope.

Read on social media that Peabody assistant Justin Truett is new HFC at McNairy Central.

Top 75 four star Curtis Givens III, point guard, of Memphis chose to play his final two years of high school ball at Montverde Academy in Florida. Signed with LSU. Previously played at MUS.

Billy Richmond III of Memphis chose to play his final two years of high school ball at Camden, NJ. where he played with D. J. Wagner last season. Class of 2024 Top 25 national prospect will rejoin with Wagner at Kentucky next season. His dad is a Memphis restaurant owner and former player for Calipari at Memphis. Previously played at East High.

Questions for the seemingly pompous one. Is the former booster club president also a county commissioner ? Where is the athletic minded school board member from West side of the county in this ?  Who chose the search committee ?

Who are the favorites ?

3A District 12 : Do not know what to expect from McNairy after graduating seven senior starters. Fine sophomore pitcher to build around. Should be some young talent and pitching help in the freshman class. Very difficult schedule with out of region games against tough teams: S. Gibson, Dyer Co., Crockett Co., Huntingdon, & Summertown, along with a tournament in Ms & three in Alabama.

Scheduling & travel are ridiculous. Bethel Springs girls played Friday evening in Whiteville, then had to travel 99 miles to face South Fulton on their home court at 11:00 Saturday morning. Selmer boys having to travel 100 miles or more to Troy.

The aforementioned poster does understand small school systems (Henderson Co., Scotts Hill). But you are correct that the coach pay scales will not be raised to compete with others for the best coaches. Wish Wes could have stayed for a long time. Maybe they get lucky with a new hire. Some good athletes at Selmer Middle. Good coach could draw players from areas (Michie/Stantonville/Lawton)  that could go either way (Adamsville/McNairy) and eastern area of Hardeman Co. (Middleton/Hornsby). And stop losing players to Mississippi (Corinth/Kossuth).

Mattie Jane Abernathy of TCA commits to Virginia Tech.

Gabbie Hensley, catcher-3b, Silverdale Baptist Academy, commits to Kentucky.

outfielder McCall Sims, Westview High School, commits to TN Lady Vols

Elsa Morrison, catcher, Farragut H. S., commits to Lady Vols, 2023 TN Gatorade POY

Brinli Bain, catcher/2nd base of Eagleville commits to Arkansas

LHP Addisyn Linton of Eagleville commits to Clemson.

LHP Kailey Plumlee of Gordonsville commits to Lady Vol softball. 

okay Tom. Thanks for the info.

Makes nine in a row for Adamsville. Enjoy it. Bobcats are working their way back. Two sophomores had 13 & 10 tackles. A freshman had 8 tackles. Selmer Middle 28 AJHS 14.

McNairy leads series 27-10 (per Daily Corinthian) but Adamsville has won 8 straight. Bobcats last won in 2008. McNairy depends heavily on senior dual threat QB while Cardinals have multiple playmakers on offense. Edge to Cardinals. Future looks bright  for the Bobcats under third year HFC Johnson.

Don't overlook Adamsville. Young soph qb Ben Hill, soph rb Malachi Moore, jr receivers Avery Abernathy & Keelan Surratt, sr receiver Maddox Smith. Big play ability. Believe QB's dad was a fine qb at North Side & Lambuth back in the day.

McNairy Central reported to be scrimmaging at McKenzie at 6:00 p.m. on July 28th.

Smart move by Mason Taylor to get out of Jackson.

Read that Lexington has plans for a new football stadium with artificial turf. Crockett County have artificial turf now ?
