According to the Brownsville Press, there are two options:  

Option One - Renovate the current stadium.  That would involve moving the field and tearing down and rebuilding the bleachers, concession stand/restrooms and dressing rooms.   A rough estimate of the cost would be 10 million dollars.

Option Two - Locate all athletic facilities on campus.  This would include a new stadium, band and football practice fields, moving the baseball field and tennis courts, and building a new softball field on what is left of the old baseball field. The estimated cost for this option is 19 million dollars.

A 60.000 square foot indoor practice facility would also be constructed.  This structure would be built regardless of stadium location.

I'm not sure if they have even considered parking.  It would be a nightmare.  

I'm going to add a third option, and that is do nothing!  I hope not, but having lived in Haywood County all my life, I see this option as the one they will choose for the near future. However, I do know money doesn't grow on trees.

I like option 1.

They will have to expand that field just to get it level, meaning they’d take some of the parking lot as well

Henry Co. Jamboree

Haywood defeats Henry Co. by a score of 25-21.  I wasn't in attendance, so I don't know, but what was the problem with Haywood's kicking game?

Same as last year Reid starting out rusty should be good by game one. After the 3rd game last year he was automatic I’m not sure why. It maybe the holds

Thanks for your response Tomcatfan.  We had some problem with snaps last year.  Were extra point snaps part of the problem?  Poor snaps can definitely mess up the hold and the timing.

I'm a big believer in the kicking game, so  I hope with a little more practice we can get all of that worked out.

Hey reddyreb.  I don't see a response.  I would like to hear your thoughts on the matter.

Looks like a long year for the rest of 7-4A.

Since both Cordova and Melrose are on Haywood's schedule, I thought I'd check the score of their game in the SCIAA Jamboree.  I'll have to admit that I thought Cordova would have come out on top, but I was surprised to see that Melrose won 12-0.  But you never know, jamboree scores can be misleading.

It will be interesting to see how the Shelby Co. schools will fare after having their seasons cancelled in 2020.  To be honest, with the Delta variant running rampant, they may have their seasons cancelled again this year.  I hope not, but all of us may face some restrictions and/or cancellations before the season is over.

I got the Cordova-Melrose score from watching this video clip.

Unfortunately, I also came across this article as well.
