South Pittsburg 2014

Did Spring Practice begin today? Also heard we will be scrimmaging North Sand Mountain, Al. Can anyone confirm?

Well I am curious about something. Jasper and Sequatchie return most their teams and both hammered Boyd last season. Why do you believe Boyd will be tougher than these two?

It will be a combination of strength and speed for Boyd.  Jasper was slow.

They were slow last year. So you response makes no sense.

I think he meant they were to slow against us last year...sp really does not have a blazing fast sprinter this year...there is no Sam pickett out there...there are some guys who run 4.6-4.8 range I would say but I would highly doubt anything higher than that.

That's right the Bucs win one every three or four years ......

We had a nice streak of about 6 in the early 2000's. 

But lately it seems to go back and forth.

Yeah SPs super slow this year. I can see why reaction is so confident. Oh well might as well chalk this one....

and Polk Co is down this yr...should be a Pirate win

[LaugerHead Lonnie]

Take your pick. If the schedule is the same as last season then it will be tough.

 

Bell County, Hixson, Sequatchie County, Boyd Buchanan, Polk County & Marion County will all be tough games to win. Bell County, Sequatchie, Boyd and Marion all 4 have most of their team returning. Hixson and Polk lost some but they are big schools so you never know what they will have in 2014.

 

Sale Creek, Lookout Valley, Whitwell & Grundy are the only 4 games I see that should definitely go the pirates way.

We have many issues on the mountain but we have some talent. The valley should have some close games this year. Obviously, the Pirates, Warriors & Indians all will be good, the rest hope to be competive. BTW, Congrats to SP baseball, coach Stone, coach Ladd & team. Best baseball program in the valley in recent years. Good to see a mountain boy involved.

Drove by spring practice yesterday and the numbers seemed to be way down from years past. As always looking forward to pirate football. It feels like August out there now.
