Any word on So. Fulton, Humboldt, West Carroll,  Greenfield or Gleason?  I know So. Fulton is usually competitive.  Humboldt will have athletes.  Just depends on if they can put it together.  Greenfield usually struggles and Lampkins will get the most out of what he has to work with. Not a word as be spoken of these schools and the season is around the corner. 

Greenfield has a new coach I do believe. Kid straight out of college from Bethel.

Woah I wonder what happened to Don Pitt. 

 

Any idea of the new coaches name?

Don't know. They had an opening for a sped job over there and my wife applied. She did not get the job. She was told by the principal that although she was better qualified for the job he had to fill the football coach position as well and that was the only teaching position available. Some kid from Bethel that had a sped certification got it. And I remember reading  something in the Jackson Sun a few days later about Greenfield getting a new coach.

That will be a tough rebuild for a young coach straight out of college.

That's a tough rebuild for Nick Saban.

YSO-Bahahaha! 

BIGPURPLE-The Jackets had some decent teams in the 80's. In '86 I believe they were ranked as high as 6th.

Not sure on football but I do remember going to state basketball tourney in 84-85 ish when Greenfield won it  (I think). Even if they didn't win they were a heck of a basketball team.

They did win state in BB around the time you mentioned. But they had a good football team in '86 as well.

Yeah they did have a pretty good team in 86. They were 8 and 0 and rolled in to Tiptonville and lost to the falcons 13 to 6. The falcons finished 6 and 5 that season.  The falcons won it all in 85.

These were my youngin days so forgive me if I'm not totally accurate but I remember Greenfield having two 9-3 seasons I believe  98 and 01 but that's the best I can remember them being
