Let’s keep it real!!! Up until about three weeks ago( MJ loss to Lebanon)  MJ continued to tell GH players they were “Rejects, losers, and  left overs” they told them “They only left MJ because they would never play at MJ.”  Fast forward 3 weeks.. The new narrative is….“Oh the talent pool has been split in half. That’s MJ’s  problem” “Oakland had to deal with it too”

Here are the FACTS.

* No starters leave the school they start at. The kids that went to GH did not ever get a chance at MJ due to the politics there. That is why they left. Now it is backfiring.

* GH has shocked lots of people. No one thought they could do what they have done. Especially, in year two of a program, year one of region play.

* They finally got  a weight room, so they could be on the same playing field as the other schools in the county. The off season is a big deal. 
 

* GH had to learn to blend several different schools into one. The first year the players were figuring out their territory. Now they are all HAWKS

* Having ALL their players eligible this year has been a huge benefit. They have SEVERAL  players who have added to the depth of this team because of being eligible.

* MJ also pulled studs from central so it’s not like they didn’t gain anyone.

Regardless of the outcome or the excuses. It should be a good game. Hopefully they all stay safe! Weather is gonna suck!  

Not sure MJ wants to draw inspiration from Oakland, after Siegel opened it took 5 years for Football to recover from that. Even then it took them hiring Thomas McDaniel to get them out of that hole

If MJ recovers from the opening of Green Hill, it won't be under Perry

Does this mean Trey Perry could end up at Gallatin?

No way they fire the current coach, administration loves him.  I hear he likes to visit the transfer portal.

Are you sure about that with the current admin? Former admin for sure, but I don't know about current. The board has a way of "swaying" admin without a backbone. Think Winfree, Crawford etc.

Also, only two reasons players transfer

1. Not getting to play at current school which doesn't help you unless the player was playing at a higher level of ball and is moving down. Doubt that at MJ.

2. They want to play for a big winner which you are not either anymore. Plus there is a pretty decent school a half hour down the road that is packing them in and nationally ranked. And yes a 30 minute commute is nothing for these kids today if they think it will put a spotlight on them.

Will MJ continue to keep the baseball talent?

Not versed on that one.  Back in the day...the talent from GH territory split between MJ and Rotary Park....both parks had good talent.

Where is Uncle Rico to give us his take?

Was the internet disconnected from his mom's basement or something?
