What’s funny is I have had fans of other teams (Peabody, South Gibson, Alcoa, Meigs, Marion, etc.) tell me South Pitt fans private message them asking who I am. They hear someone mention a musical instrument and they assume I am a band director. It makes me laugh. Lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen anything on Meigs this year. They will be good and undoubtedly have some good players but I can promise you they don't have anyone the caliber of Westmoreland. No slight on any of their kids but that's just being honest. I wont dispute that really. We have a team full of good players and a handful of great players. Kids like him really are few and far in between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a Westmoreland type kid go ahead and write your name on the gold trophy lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People that take offense probably havent seen what an NFL caliber player means to a high school team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just ask Jasper about the Trezevant kid in the championship game. He reminded me of Westmoreland, but Westmoreland was faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say though the best rb I feel MC ever faced was Leroy Thompson of Austin East in the mid 80's.

AirRaid Posted May 30, 2021 Report Share Posted May 30, 2021 Nothing new. . but I think Meigs and Marion battle it out in this region. And the more important game between the 2 will be the 2nd time they play. This will be an exciting matchup. I think I will try to make this game, assuming the season goes the way we all think it will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
