I am so excited about this upcoming season. These kids had a tough go a few years ago, but Coach Pruitt has done a terrific job getting them up to speed with his plays. One of the boys said that Coach Pruitt got some of his play designs from a coach in Alabama that has won a lot of titles down on the mountain in Alabama. We also get a lot of our defenses from JP. This is going to be a great year for these kiddos. The Big Show, My main man Mason in the middle, Taye, Riley, Alex running neat plays and Jake, Boomer, and others being great leaders on our line is going to be so great this year. Our kids have strength right now that is unbelievable. Kuddos to these coaches for getting our kids so strong. I know that JP has been heavily involved helping his dad get our kiddos stronger. What a great first year we had last season with Coach Pruitt, but he will have some new plays this season too so we will have new wrinkles that most teams don't expect.  I am glad we are not playing Whitwool or Pitchburg either. We have more class than them anyway. We are Marion County! As always it's a great day to be a warrior. I hope everyone has a blessed day. 

 

FEAR THE TEAM, FEAR THE SPEED, & FEAR THE LEGEND... AIGHT!

More class?  Really?  Both teams during the games in the past always seem to have more class than the fans.  I know there has been bickering and defacing property and crimes committed, but let’s be real, those were adults not the kids.  So please specify adults.  The kids on both sides don’t even think much about the rivalry any more.

Hurt it at a camp, yes played last year #73 . I think defense only. Going to be a junior this year. 

That stinks..  I hate to see any kid get injured. Best of luck and speedy recovery.

I've seen a couple different pre season All State teams announced and happy for our guys that made the team. Also saw one that says Marion isn't a contender for the title. May not be, but I do know this will be the biggest and deepest line we've ever had and the most speed we've ever had. If they can play to their potential it should be a good year for the kids. Hopefully the injury bug doesn't bite again.

I think I saw one of the one of the polls you mentioned. It did list you guys as a dark horse though as I recall.

    • Did this happen? Does anyone know? Ripley has their HC job posted on the bulletin board over the weekend.
    • Coalfield definitely isn't the same team they've had the past few years. They are still the favorites to make it out of their region because of their pitching. They have 1 arm that sits low to mid 80s and 2 other arms that are mid to high 70s with good off speed stuff. If you can avoid their top 3 bats in their lineup then you have a shot to beat them. Their 4-9 hitters are average at best. Wartburg's ace was able to shut them down last week in the game Wartburg won 4-2. 
    • It is the longest season. Plus, 30 games a year. No Christmas break. I would say basketball is the most time consuming. 
    • No movement on Chester? South Gibson? Gibson County?
    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
