South Pittsburg 2016 boys (Griders team next year)

[PiRaTe._.MiKe]

FA11 will you be broadcasting the scrimmage at Cascade like you did it at SP last year? In case I can't make it, it would be nice to watch a little of it somehow. You could probably do Favebook Live now just as easy.

 

I watched practice the other day. Even thought they were in shorts and t shirts, and without giving away any secrets as Roy would put it, this team appears to have more "team speed" than we've had in a few years. I was impressed with how fast the lineman were getting up and down the field. I want to give a few names to watch out for this year. I haven't seen the Murphy Fair book yet so some of these names are probably on there too. Also, I'm still learning some names so if I don't mention one that someone else might it's mostly because I just don't know the name lol. Lilly, Holland, Kennemore, Pryor, Raulston, Daniels, Both Cawoods, Brown, Fehr, Branham, Stewart, Ford, Fuqua, Kelley, Abbott...just to name a few and I saw many more that will play big roles just don't know their names. 2 years ago we were headed in the wrong direction unless a change was made. We got the Captain back and have gone from what 20 players to 46. We have like 10 seniors , but have about 22 eighth graders. You might knock us down, but we will always get back up. #PirateStrong

I don't know if Morrison is playing this year or not but if so he is a big help too. A lot of people are excited about this eighth grade class and should be but this group of juniors are the real deal right now. SP has set themselves up nicely for the next 5 years.

yes, a MC grad that became play by play for the Pirates and later the BB Bucs. Now WHITWELL. Great guy and he has done a lot to support our valley teams. Chris would probably be big time, at somewhere like ESPN but for whatever reason chose to concentrate on local sports. Good guy, good family man, good friend .

Good guy? You lost every bit of credibility you ever had with that line right there.

Can't make it. Hard to make during the week when it's away. Be sure to give us your thoughts on each team please.
