- 2:04Speaker 6: I can trade with you.
- 2:06Speaker 2: No, I don't want to come sit over here. I
- 2:07Speaker 2: don't want to do that either.
- 2:08Speaker 4: Number eleven on this list hashtag boe the Brandon Bulldogs
- 2:14Speaker 4: probably their lowest preseason ranking in ten years.
- 2:17Speaker 2: It's been it's been a minute.
- 2:19Speaker 4: You know, They've got a lot of coming back. Slaton
- 2:21Speaker 4: Shack at quarterback who's committed Illinois, Tyson Robinson at running
- 2:24Speaker 4: back who is committed to Michigan. They bring over a
- 2:29Speaker 4: running back from Jackson Academy. They've had some other kids
- 2:32Speaker 4: moving as well. Eugene Clinton takes over full time as
- 2:36Speaker 4: the head coach after the interim roll. Uh kind of
- 2:39Speaker 4: his peak, golding moment last year. UH took you know,
- 2:42Speaker 4: took over the program, took them to South State one
- 2:45Speaker 4: game from the championship, got beat. Brings in Michael Turner,
- 2:49Speaker 4: defensive coordinator from Jackson Academy.
- 2:51Speaker 2: Brings over offensive coordinator.
- 2:53Speaker 4: Offensive coordinator UH formerly of Pearl in Madison Central, and
- 2:57Speaker 4: Justin Hunter, a wide receivers coach for Northwest Rankin. He's
- 3:02Speaker 4: you know, ignited the program with new faces and coaches,
- 3:06Speaker 4: several new kids. They return a lot, and they've got
- 3:09Speaker 4: to They got a big chip on the shoulder, they know.
- 3:11Speaker 4: I mean, last year was unlike anything that you could
- 3:14Speaker 4: imagine could have happened anywhere much less branded.
- 3:17Speaker 2: Yeah, that was bad.
- 3:18Speaker 6: It was horrible.
- 3:19Speaker 2: That was bad.
- 3:20Speaker 5: And I don't know, you gen Hopefully I hope to
- 3:24Speaker 5: get to know him, because I've heard nothing but good
- 3:27Speaker 5: things about him, And I mean, I say, I don't
- 3:29Speaker 5: know him and I've met him, and you know, shaked
- 3:32Speaker 5: hands and those kinds of things. I'm just saying, you know,
- 3:34Speaker 5: he's not necessarily like a friend. I don't know him
- 3:36Speaker 5: like that like you do. But everybody I talked to
- 3:40Speaker 5: about him says the same thing. Just first class, how
- 3:42Speaker 5: he does things. Kids love him. So I'm just gonna
- 3:46Speaker 5: judge him based on what they've done. You mentioned the
- 3:48Speaker 5: two coordinators. Both of those guys are they're really good
- 3:51Speaker 5: football coaches, like those are two really good hires for him.
- 3:56Speaker 5: And to get both of them offensive defensive coordinator. I
- 4:00Speaker 5: was kind of laughing because I have them at eleven.
- 4:02Speaker 5: But they have a kid going to Illinois at quarterback,
- 4:05Speaker 5: and they have a kid in the backfield going to Michigan. Okay,
- 4:08Speaker 5: Tyson Robinson is our offensive preseason Player of the Year
- 4:12Speaker 5: in seven eight, and I think that's absolutely warranted. I
- 4:17Speaker 5: think he'll put up monster numbers and remember what he
- 4:20Speaker 5: did two years ago as a tenth grader where he
- 4:22Speaker 5: was around two thousand yards just all purpose, and he'll
- 4:25Speaker 5: go over that. You know, knock on wood, you stay healthy.
- 4:28Speaker 5: But that's true of every kid. But then they pick
- 4:30Speaker 5: up Josh Parker. Okay, that kid is a legit Division
- 4:34Speaker 5: one wide receiver prospect. Yeah, could play dB and I
- 4:37Speaker 5: think I put him as as a wide out. And
- 4:40Speaker 5: Cameron Roberts, another junior that came over from Jackson Prep.
- 4:44Speaker 5: I think I put him as a dB. But I
- 4:46Speaker 5: want to say they.
- 4:47Speaker 2: Could do either.
- 4:48Speaker 4: Cameron will play defensive back, Josh Parker will play wide receiver.
- 4:52Speaker 4: Just what you said, both will play baseball.
- 4:53Speaker 2: I thought they would do it like that.
- 4:55Speaker 6: And you know, Josh Parker is a legit four three
- 4:57Speaker 6: nine laser.
- 4:58Speaker 2: Guy, like legit speed.
- 5:00Speaker 4: From what I've been told is I mean they can
- 5:03Speaker 4: hang it out now with Sladen Shack that he.
- 5:06Speaker 5: Can get offered by old miss real early. I think
- 5:09Speaker 5: I could be missing that, but he's that type.
- 5:11Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 5:12Speaker 4: So you bring those two in Kingston Johnston in the backfield,
- 5:15Speaker 4: you know that gives that one to two punch. And
- 5:17Speaker 4: let's not forget this too. Last year, Tyson was hurt
- 5:21Speaker 4: most of the year. I mean a lot of people
- 5:22Speaker 4: don't know that.
- 5:23Speaker 2: I mean, it wasn't a hamstring.
- 5:25Speaker 4: It was a hamstring terrible and he you know, look,
- 5:28Speaker 4: I get it. He was on the camp circuit a
- 5:29Speaker 4: lot last summer. He didn't take a lot of time
- 5:32Speaker 4: off and he had a nag in the spring and
- 5:35Speaker 4: it really hit him. Middle of that first game against Tupelow,
- 5:37Speaker 4: he broke out. He was on a long run and
- 5:40Speaker 4: he just fell, I mean just fell.
- 5:42Speaker 5: And after that, when you watch kids like that at
- 5:45Speaker 5: whatever level, you can tell like that he's not right.
- 5:48Speaker 6: You know he was.
- 5:49Speaker 4: He was about eighty and I don't know how we
- 5:51Speaker 4: judged these things. This is what I'm told eighty percent
- 5:53Speaker 4: on that playoff run where they basically moved him to quarterback. Yeah,
- 5:56Speaker 4: because Shaq had some injuries. He had some head injuries
- 5:58Speaker 4: and some things he was nursing. The team last year
- 6:01Speaker 4: was just it was a shell of who they were
- 6:05Speaker 4: under Sam Williams.
- 6:06Speaker 6: It was a shell.
- 6:06Speaker 5: Well, they have a Division one linebacker and me mentioned,
- 6:09Speaker 5: was it Travon Washington?
- 6:10Speaker 6: Yeah, Travon Washington.
- 6:11Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 6:11Speaker 4: He's got offers from everywhere in the country. You know,
- 6:14Speaker 4: they've they've got dudes, like a lot of these teams.
- 6:17Speaker 4: It's just can they bring it all together and we'll
- 6:19Speaker 4: find out because then you know, three weeks from Friday
- 6:21Speaker 4: they go to Tupelow. Yeah, and that's that's a tough
- 6:24Speaker 4: you know, that's a tough nut to crack.
- 6:26Speaker 2: I probably need to go to that.
- 6:27Speaker 6: Why don't you go with me?
- 6:28Speaker 2: I probably probably should. I have to work on that.
- 6:31Speaker 6: But what do you think he'll actually get in the
- 6:32Speaker 6: car and go with me to two below?
- 6:34Speaker 2: Of course, that's terrible.
- 6:36Speaker 5: I'm thinking already, like you stay now, I'm not staying
- 6:40Speaker 5: the night, No, but you stay for the whole game?
- 6:42Speaker 6: Well, I have to, I don't.
- 6:44Speaker 5: I go get photos a lot of I'll go to
- 6:47Speaker 5: a game and ditch after I got what I need
- 6:50Speaker 5: and I can watch it for for like you guys,
- 6:52Speaker 5: I go home and watch the end of it. So
- 6:55Speaker 5: if you're man, if you're there at the end, then
- 6:57Speaker 5: everybody leaves, you're stuck, and I hate hate it. So
- 7:01Speaker 5: we're gonna have to revisit that.
- 7:03Speaker 6: So why don't you just go up there and you
- 7:05Speaker 6: can hit some of the North Mississippi schools up there?
- 7:06Speaker 2: That's not a bad idea.
- 7:07Speaker 4: And then ended it at like a one A school
- 7:09Speaker 4: to where you can just leave and there's like thirty
- 7:11Speaker 4: people I do.
- 7:11Speaker 2: I like to do that too.
- 7:13Speaker 4: Number eleven or number twelve on this list, pickau and
- 7:15Speaker 4: the Maroon tied number twelve.
- 7:17Speaker 6: We'll kind of run through some of these.
- 7:19Speaker 4: Let's see twelve, number thirteen is pedal, and I can
- 7:24Speaker 4: fourteen is loose.
- 7:24Speaker 6: We we'll go three at a time.
- 7:25Speaker 5: I can tell you all you need to know, just
- 7:27Speaker 5: snippet so we can get to some other stuff too.
- 7:29Speaker 5: Picky UN's got like a five foot nothing, one hundred
- 7:31Speaker 5: and nothing, three thousand yard rusher and one of those
- 7:34Speaker 5: he's literally one hundred and fifty pounds and he ran
- 7:36Speaker 5: for twenty eight hundred thirty eight touchdowns. Xavier Dennis. Okay,
- 7:41Speaker 5: then they'll do that this year pedal, like Marcus Boyles
- 7:45Speaker 5: has done. They have a lot of players they do.
- 7:48Speaker 2: They have a quarterback that.
- 7:49Speaker 5: I think has been offered made by Alabama, Cayden Belton,
- 7:54Speaker 5: I think. And he has a running back same thing.
- 7:56Speaker 6: Like Slee Brown, sec.
- 7:58Speaker 2: Guy. Like, they have a lot of dudes.
- 8:01Speaker 4: They've had some kids move in. Marcus's reduced that program.
- 8:06Speaker 4: I mean, he is a big name. He's a big name.
- 8:08Speaker 4: He's going to bring kids.
- 8:09Speaker 7: You know.
- 8:09Speaker 5: It's much like and I shouldn't say it like that.
- 8:11Speaker 5: He's a terrific football coach.
- 8:13Speaker 6: He's a huge he's a great football coach.
- 8:14Speaker 4: You could argue he's he's the best coach, active coach,
- 8:16Speaker 4: one of the top coaches in the state of Mississippi.
- 8:18Speaker 2: He is.
- 8:19Speaker 6: Uh, They're at thirteen, Lewisville at.
- 8:22Speaker 2: Fourteen there and they're loaded again.
- 8:24Speaker 4: They're loaded. Michael Turner. I believe he's committed Ole miss Yeah.
- 8:28Speaker 5: Probably the best defensive player in Mississippi probably.
- 8:31Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 8:32Speaker 4: Number fifteen on this list South Panola. Now they're under
- 8:35Speaker 4: new leadership this year.
- 8:36Speaker 2: That'll be fun to watch. Michael Fairs.
- 8:38Speaker 5: There's I didn't realize he started his career coaching there,
- 8:41Speaker 5: so he's kind of come full circle.
- 8:43Speaker 2: He was there in the SPU days.
- 8:45Speaker 4: Number sixteen on this list, Ocean Springs Man. They have
- 8:48Speaker 4: been in quarterback Chalmers Chalmers Burgland, which feels like he's
- 8:53Speaker 4: been there for twenty years, it seems like, but he
- 8:55Speaker 4: just started so young. They have been so close. A
- 8:58Speaker 4: lot of people felt like last year was the year,
- 9:01Speaker 4: and then Gulf Court happened.
- 9:02Speaker 5: Yeah, Jack's been great down there and they have owned
- 9:05Speaker 5: that the coast and then last year, like you said, happened,
- 9:08Speaker 5: they lost a lot of talent though, So I'm anxious
- 9:10Speaker 5: to see how they reload's.
- 9:11Speaker 6: Get one more.
- 9:12Speaker 4: Number seventeen Jackson Academy. They will travel early. We were
- 9:15Speaker 4: over there a couple weeks ago on the road tour
- 9:18Speaker 4: coach Dougan and ev. They will travel to pick a
- 9:21Speaker 4: you early.
- 9:22Speaker 2: They have a good schedule.
- 9:24Speaker 5: The academies are a little different this year. And look
- 9:26Speaker 5: that's not unlike that's the same as the public's. You
- 9:29Speaker 5: have these big years and then maybe not the next year.
- 9:32Speaker 5: They had all of these kids here in the metro
- 9:35Speaker 5: last year going to big places. There's not as much
- 9:37Speaker 5: of that this year. But they still have, you know,
- 9:40Speaker 5: the kid that's going to Ohio State, big offensive tackle
- 9:43Speaker 5: Caden Moss is likely the best offensive lineman in the state,
- 9:47Speaker 5: and that PJ Evans, a guard that'll probably be an
- 9:50Speaker 5: SEC kid. So I mean they still have a lot
- 9:52Speaker 5: of football players.
- 9:54Speaker 6: That's at number seventeen. Cowboy Ready the crew back together.

- 15:23Speaker 4: are different kids up there. And here's what I mean.
- 15:25Speaker 4: This is their words, not mine. Their country. Those are
- 15:29Speaker 4: kids that literally all summer long, they work in construction,
- 15:32Speaker 4: they're in the fields, they're helping grandparents. They are country strong.
- 15:38Speaker 4: And when you put them in a weight room and
- 15:39Speaker 4: you put them in a program, that's a really good
- 15:41Speaker 4: football program up there.
- 15:42Speaker 2: You hear the same stuff at West Point.
- 15:44Speaker 5: Yeah, like kids as soon as hey, Chris, look when
- 15:46Speaker 5: these kids leave practice, like they go to work somewhere. Yeah,
- 15:49Speaker 5: so like they know what that's like. They know how
- 15:52Speaker 5: to work. And hey, Marcus had a great career. I'm
- 15:55Speaker 5: happy for him, proud he retired.
- 15:58Speaker 2: He'll still have.
- 15:58Speaker 5: An influence in that commute unity and you know, working
- 16:01Speaker 5: at an administrative level, Allan Washington takes that job over.
- 16:04Speaker 5: But I was going to say, like, when you just
- 16:06Speaker 5: start talking about them, I couldn't. I thought for a
- 16:08Speaker 5: minute I might not recall the name of the new coach,
- 16:11Speaker 5: and then it popped in there. I'm really proud of myself.
- 16:13Speaker 2: Who is it? Allan Washington?
- 16:15Speaker 6: Alan Washington? Because he was on the staff.
- 16:16Speaker 5: Like I thought I was going to have the magazine
- 16:18Speaker 5: opening for this, Yeah, he was there. You don't even
- 16:20Speaker 5: have the magazine. No, I don't have it open. It
- 16:23Speaker 5: has been all on recall. I just want to pat
- 16:25Speaker 5: myself on the back for a second, because I could
- 16:26Speaker 5: have flamed out bad. I could have tanked and I
- 16:29Speaker 5: may have butchered some of these names, but I would
- 16:31Speaker 5: have been nervous to do that before I came on. Man,
- 16:34Speaker 5: they have a big time offensive coordinator too, but I can't.
- 16:37Speaker 5: I am tanking on that. That's like it's somebody you
- 16:40Speaker 5: would know. But I think about it.
- 16:43Speaker 4: The elite deer was up there makes a jaw Jackson.
- 16:48Speaker 5: Maybe I want to say not shred Gideon. Somebody liked something.
- 16:51Speaker 5: It'll be a name you know. Is their offensive coordinator.
- 16:54Speaker 6: Number nineteen on the list. Mr A. Of course.
- 16:57Speaker 4: Caleb Unger, the talented defensive line, our offensive lineman.
- 17:00Speaker 6: He was committed Misssippi State.
- 17:02Speaker 4: I think he is uh now Corty State, Baylor, Duke, Colorado,
- 17:06Speaker 4: A lot of teams.
- 17:07Speaker 2: He's open now.
- 17:08Speaker 5: He started there since ninth grade. They'll have a new quarterback,
- 17:13Speaker 5: some new I mean, they'll have a lot of new players.
- 17:16Speaker 5: They lost all their wide receivers, but I know they
- 17:18Speaker 5: have more good ones. They'll they'll have a very good football.
- 17:21Speaker 4: Team twenty May surprise some out of six eight Lake Cormorant.
- 17:24Speaker 5: Yeah, they have a ton of players, like it's one
- 17:27Speaker 5: of the nick Nesters. Their coach been there for forever
- 17:32Speaker 5: and uh. But like they have a division one like
- 17:35Speaker 5: the several positions they have a linebacker going somewhere. They
- 17:40Speaker 5: have a defensive tackle going to UH to Florida State
- 17:43Speaker 5: thinks Eric vass I think is his name.
- 17:45Speaker 4: Is A Vassars below V A L B A U
- 17:48Speaker 4: l X. How do you print one below, volks, Folks
- 17:52Speaker 4: maybe bought that's such a better name, Like that's a
- 17:54Speaker 4: good name. Yeah, that's a very cool name. Bobo is
- 17:58Speaker 4: the linebacker. I can't remember his first name though. His
- 18:01Speaker 4: little brother is a tailback there. But they've spit out
- 18:04Speaker 4: some dudes like Cam Franklin from there. They have a
- 18:07Speaker 4: kid that went to went to the Big Ten, I
- 18:10Speaker 4: think Perdue last year. Can't remember his name. Then another
- 18:13Speaker 4: linebacker that's at Old Miss. So like they've they've put
- 18:16Speaker 4: out some guys Hopkins I think was his name, But
- 18:19Speaker 4: they they've spit out some players. Scott Pearson West Jones
- 18:23Speaker 4: at number twenty one. West Jones is a team that
- 18:26Speaker 4: they'll be around for a while. You have one of
- 18:27Speaker 4: the best defenses I think we've all seen a couple
- 18:29Speaker 4: years ago. They won state championship and UH in six A.
- 18:33Speaker 4: They've got a senior wide receiver Chandler Watson sixty three
- 18:35Speaker 4: one ninety led the state and receiving a last year
- 18:38Speaker 4: fourteen forty yards nineteen touchdowns on fifty nine catches.
- 18:41Speaker 6: Last year. They're they're back, they're loaded, and uh, well.
- 18:44Speaker 5: You know Scott shod Out, he's been retired for three years. Yeah,
- 18:47Speaker 5: and they won a title in the middle of that.
- 18:49Speaker 5: Now he's back running the show. But their quarterbacks Tooty Lindsey,
- 18:53Speaker 5: how can you up pull for that kid?
- 18:55Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 18:55Speaker 4: Number twenty two on this list Northwest rankin How about
- 19:00Speaker 4: Cougar's jumping in the top twenty five.
- 19:01Speaker 5: I have a first team All state wide receiver too,
- 19:04Speaker 5: Deshaun Dillon, a big basketball kid too. And I don't hope,
- 19:08Speaker 5: I don't want to say this wrong. Deshawn's one of
- 19:10Speaker 5: those guys. I if he was one hundred percent football kid, yeah,
- 19:14Speaker 5: I think he would make a difference. But but he's
- 19:17Speaker 5: talented at both and then and I've never talked to
- 19:20Speaker 5: him about this. You you then you start thinking which
- 19:22Speaker 5: one do you like the most? Football or basketball? Think
- 19:25Speaker 5: he's a basketball for I think I could be wrong
- 19:27Speaker 5: with I think that's true, but like that, that kid
- 19:29Speaker 5: has a ton of ability.
- 19:30Speaker 4: Twenty three on the list out of four A the
- 19:33Speaker 4: four A champion Columbia Wildcats. Well, what a championship game
- 19:37Speaker 4: against kazi Esco last year. It was a six other game.
- 19:40Speaker 4: A lot of people don't like those games. I love
- 19:42Speaker 4: those games. It was such an entertaining ball game.
- 19:45Speaker 5: Chip builderback comes back as their head coach. Of course,
- 19:47Speaker 5: his wife is the head women's basketball coach at Southern
- 19:49Speaker 5: Miss and he'll joke that he's the second best coach
- 19:52Speaker 5: in their household. But yeah, they'll be good again.
- 19:55Speaker 6: Number twenty four horn Lake coming in. Hornlake?
- 19:58Speaker 4: Does this those teams DeSoto County Hornlake? You know, you
- 20:01Speaker 4: get into Soto Central Hornlake at twenty four out of
- 20:04Speaker 4: Region one. How about Lanier and Tommy Kelly jumping in
- 20:08Speaker 4: at twenty five.
- 20:10Speaker 5: Tommy Kelly has done probably the best coaching job of
- 20:14Speaker 5: anybody in the state. Okay, I don't know if I
- 20:16Speaker 5: have it in the reading there. I'm not looking at it.
- 20:19Speaker 5: I think they won a game the previous two years
- 20:21Speaker 5: before he got there. There's something a lot, maybe two games,
- 20:26Speaker 5: maybe a one win season one year, maybe a no
- 20:28Speaker 5: win season, and they hadn't been the playoffs, like they
- 20:31Speaker 5: had done nothing. And then he gets there and in
- 20:34Speaker 5: two years they've put together I think eight and nine
- 20:38Speaker 5: win seasons. And then he has this one kid if
- 20:41Speaker 5: I'd like, man, if you could see him in person, Garashi,
- 20:45Speaker 5: I don't know how to pronounce his name, but he's
- 20:48Speaker 5: about six five or sixty six.
- 20:51Speaker 6: And Jossie Carson.
- 20:52Speaker 5: I remember asking about him afterwards, like what's he weigh
- 20:55Speaker 5: and six five three hundred I'm thinking two fifty because
- 20:57Speaker 5: he's built like that. And then they tell you what
- 21:00Speaker 5: he weighs, and you see him move and he's got
- 21:03Speaker 5: him playing both ways, so he doesn't leave the field much.
- 21:06Speaker 5: You know how hard it is to do at that
- 21:07Speaker 5: s Yeah, and Jay like kids still going like he
- 21:11Speaker 5: is a study and he has a running back, same class.
- 21:13Speaker 2: That's the stuff.
- 21:14Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm looking at the photo that you put in
- 21:15Speaker 6: here of him, a great photo. He looks to me
- 21:18Speaker 6: by the photo.
- 21:19Speaker 5: Is slim, two forty three hundred pounds, so the kid
- 21:23Speaker 5: has no fat on it none now, like just and

- 24:06Speaker 2: Yeah, we could do that.
- 24:07Speaker 6: We could do that. All right, let's get into some
- 24:08Speaker 6: of the top position you know. Oh, by the way,
- 24:11Speaker 6: let me ask you this.
- 24:12Speaker 4: Yeah, since you are a man that has put a
- 24:14Speaker 4: magazine together for almost two decades, okay, you've been, And
- 24:17Speaker 4: I'm serious when I say this. You've been a part of,
- 24:19Speaker 4: you know, voting on all state teams, You've done college,
- 24:22Speaker 4: you worked for CBS, You've done all this stuff. Two
- 24:24Speaker 4: four seven. Why do we still do this is a
- 24:28Speaker 4: hang up for me? Okay, why do we still do
- 24:31Speaker 4: all American teams all state teams with one quarterback, two
- 24:36Speaker 4: running backs, two wide receivers in a tight end? Why
- 24:40Speaker 4: do we still do the old school? Because we don't
- 24:41Speaker 4: play football that way anymore. It's one back every now
- 24:45Speaker 4: and then it's too but it's literally, excuse me, one
- 24:48Speaker 4: running back, three receivers maybe a time.
- 24:50Speaker 6: Why do we still do the whole voting that way?
- 24:52Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 24:53Speaker 5: And I put on all purpose in there to hedge
- 24:55Speaker 5: my bits so I can. There's always a couple of quarterbacks,
- 24:58Speaker 5: and will you need both of them in there? I
- 25:00Speaker 5: don't know why, but especially here you start going down
- 25:04Speaker 5: the list, there's not a whole lot of tight ends left.
- 25:06Speaker 2: I mean there's a few, but it's.
- 25:07Speaker 8: Not like it was.
- 25:09Speaker 4: Well, you know, we were talking yesterday with Russell Mitchell
- 25:12Speaker 4: over at Germantown. We were at Germantown and he referenced,
- 25:14Speaker 4: you know, we were talking about the evolution of offense
- 25:16Speaker 4: and how the tight end is coming back. But it's
- 25:18Speaker 4: not the traditional tight end we know. I mean, it's
- 25:20Speaker 4: been coming different. It's the flex. It's the guy that
- 25:22Speaker 4: can put his hand on the ground. You can split
- 25:24Speaker 4: him out. He could play a wing, he could do it.
- 25:26Speaker 4: The tight end is a versatile, versatile you.
- 25:30Speaker 5: Miss fullbacks like we don't have that anymore. You see
- 25:33Speaker 5: an h back every once in a while. People are
- 25:35Speaker 5: still using that. I mean, there are a few tight
- 25:37Speaker 5: ends around the state, but even on a high school level,
- 25:39Speaker 5: there's just there's not a whole lot of them to
- 25:41Speaker 5: go get.
- 25:42Speaker 4: All right, let's talk quarterbacks first. You'll take some heat
- 25:45Speaker 4: for this one number one quarterback in the state. You
- 25:48Speaker 4: have slat and shack at Brandon.
- 25:49Speaker 2: I did look.
- 25:51Speaker 5: Part of that is on the is the recruiting scene.
- 25:54Speaker 5: He is right now still the highest ranked quarterback prospect
- 25:57Speaker 5: in the state. I think last year a lot of it.
- 25:59Speaker 5: I don't think it was all him. They had other
- 26:02Speaker 5: stuff you know, going on, as you well know it.
- 26:04Speaker 5: Brandon from from calling the games. I still I had
- 26:08Speaker 5: a lot of people they still think that kid's really talented.
- 26:11Speaker 4: It's extremely no there is no doubt Slayton is very talented.
- 26:14Speaker 4: At six one two ten, he's chiseled this year. I'll
- 26:17Speaker 4: tell you this. Uh not that he wasn't last year,
- 26:19Speaker 4: but he's more so this year. He's grown into his body.
- 26:23Speaker 4: Brandon is in, I mean, probably the best shape that
- 26:26Speaker 4: team's been in physically in three years. They have worked
- 26:30Speaker 4: those kids in the dirt this year and they needed it.
- 26:33Speaker 4: They needed it.
- 26:35Speaker 6: You know, he's got He's a guy that can throw
- 26:37Speaker 6: the fade, he can throw the you know, the crossing routes.
- 26:39Speaker 6: He can do it all.
- 26:41Speaker 4: We'll see if he you know that translates this year.
- 26:43Speaker 4: Caden Wade at Kasi ESCO number two.
- 26:45Speaker 6: He is a big kid.
- 26:46Speaker 2: You'd have to see him in person too.
- 26:48Speaker 6: Yeah, he may.
- 26:49Speaker 5: He may be like I don't want to say the
- 26:52Speaker 5: most talented because you know, so much goes into that
- 26:54Speaker 5: is what you want your quarterback to do.
- 26:56Speaker 2: Like he can.
- 26:57Speaker 5: He's he's more Camaro Taylor. I'm not saying he is that,
- 27:01Speaker 5: but he is that type of player, like he kentuck
- 27:04Speaker 5: it and take off with it, or like he might
- 27:07Speaker 5: just flick it and it's sixty yards down the field
- 27:09Speaker 5: like that.
- 27:10Speaker 2: That kid has that type of armability.
- 27:12Speaker 4: You mentioned him earlier, number three on your list. Uh,
- 27:15Speaker 4: nobody in this state seeing play, but he has lit
- 27:17Speaker 4: it up in the state of Tennessee. He's now at
- 27:19Speaker 4: Oxford Price Renovich sixte This this is a team coming in.
- 27:26Speaker 4: You know, they've had so much movement at quarterback with
- 27:28Speaker 4: Kiffen going with his dad to uh you know, Drew
- 27:31Speaker 4: Dean now over two below. But Renovich comes in and
- 27:34Speaker 4: now we'll take over an eleven eleven win team. Charger
- 27:37Speaker 4: teams a lot of.
- 27:37Speaker 5: Times on those lists I mentioned earlier. I may I
- 27:40Speaker 5: just try to do what I think is fair. He's
- 27:43Speaker 5: a new kid. Didn't want to put him on all
- 27:44Speaker 5: state teams and take another spot. Someone's already done it.
- 27:48Speaker 5: But then if you watch his huddle, watch some video,
- 27:51Speaker 5: and talk to a couple of people, he is one
- 27:53Speaker 5: of the best quarterbacks in the state.
- 27:55Speaker 4: Yeah, Smith Stringer down at PCs. He's a six six kid,
- 27:58Speaker 4: one ninety.
- 27:58Speaker 2: You know who that is? Three Stringer's kid.
- 28:00Speaker 5: Okay, okay, So you know was that I think he
- 28:04Speaker 5: reads back at Southern Now he left for a little bit, Yep,
- 28:07Speaker 5: came back. He was at State for a long long time.
- 28:10Speaker 5: But yeah, that kid, he's going to Wake Forest.
- 28:12Speaker 4: Oh really yeah, Kellen hall Don at Oak Grove number five,
- 28:16Speaker 4: Gavin Duxworth at Hattisburg number six, Luke Essery and Jackson
- 28:20Speaker 4: Prepp at number seven.
- 28:21Speaker 2: Yep, I mean that's a that's another Division one kid.
- 28:24Speaker 5: Where's he going right now? I don't think anywhere, but
- 28:27Speaker 5: I think he has some opportunities.
- 28:30Speaker 4: Chalmers Bergland at Ocean Springs number eight, Drudinne two Blow
- 28:34Speaker 4: number nine, and Brady Chancellor at Seminary number ten.
- 28:36Speaker 5: Yeah, smaller school, but he actually if he didn't lead
- 28:38Speaker 5: the state in passing like he was up there last.
- 28:40Speaker 2: Year through for a ton of yards.
- 28:41Speaker 6: Yeah, and you can see all of that.
- 28:43Speaker 2: Where's he from?
- 28:43Speaker 5: That's not the past Christian No Seminary Seminary he threw
- 28:46Speaker 5: for a ton too, But the past Christian kid A
- 28:48Speaker 5: think led the state.
- 28:49Speaker 4: Yeah, Chris has all this in the magazines dropping on
- 28:51Speaker 4: Friday online. What are you gonna do about people to say, hey,
- 28:54Speaker 4: I want a hard.
- 28:54Speaker 5: Copy, I'll they can order them. I'll have the order information.
- 28:57Speaker 5: But I'm going to have those out probably next Winds.
- 29:00Speaker 6: Day, let's see. Also he lists dual threat quarterbacks, which
- 29:05Speaker 6: I like the way you broke this out.
- 29:07Speaker 2: I think that's fair. You have to because fair.
- 29:09Speaker 5: It's almost impossible to rank them because they're all so different,
- 29:12Speaker 5: because a bunch of these kids are going to play
- 29:13Speaker 5: other positions in college.
- 29:14Speaker 4: Yeah, Kingston Johnson number one, Starkville, Nash Morgan number two,
- 29:18Speaker 4: were in Central, Caden Belton pedal number three, Chase Crafted
- 29:22Speaker 4: Heidelberg and.
- 29:23Speaker 5: Look, and some of these kids are pure quarter They're
- 29:24Speaker 5: going to be quarterbacked. Cayden Belton is going to be
- 29:27Speaker 5: a quarterback. So is Kingston going to be a quarterback.
- 29:29Speaker 5: Nash is going to move, Chase Craft is going to move.
- 29:33Speaker 4: Jaden Allen at Brook Caven number five, Titus Feaster at
- 29:38Speaker 4: per of Central.
- 29:38Speaker 5: The sixth kid is a stunt. People will talk more
- 29:41Speaker 5: about him later this year.
- 29:43Speaker 6: Ethan Elliott at Hartfield.
- 29:45Speaker 2: Look that legit laser four to three nine kids.
- 29:49Speaker 4: Yeah, Coach Bowman was talking about him. We were there
- 29:51Speaker 4: a few weeks ago. They really liked that kid. Tooty
- 29:53Speaker 4: Lindsay at Wes Jones, Paris Trevillion at Past Christianne and
- 29:59Speaker 4: then Jaquiam Goodwin at Knaxaby County.
- 30:02Speaker 6: Not a good one there. You got your players to watch.
- 30:05Speaker 4: Uh at quarterback at you know several man, we got
- 30:09Speaker 4: some really good quarterbacks in the state this year, don't
- 30:11Speaker 4: we do.
- 30:12Speaker 5: I thought the same thing going through it. It's hard
- 30:15Speaker 5: to remember previous years, but I thought we had more
- 30:17Speaker 5: this year than we've had, maybe not as maybe not
- 30:21Speaker 5: not the year like we had Camarrio, Taylor and Deuce Knight,

- 31:01Speaker 5: Yeah, you're creating words and like you can go, you
- 31:03Speaker 5: just piecing words together. Like you have sixteen tiles and
- 31:07Speaker 5: you're finding as many words, like a word search kind
- 31:09Speaker 5: of thing.
- 31:10Speaker 6: So none of your kids have tried to take rip
- 31:12Speaker 6: the Brooksy and use it for themselves.
- 31:13Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they all, yeah, they do. But you got
- 31:16Speaker 2: to be a man at the house.

- 31:47Speaker 4: Yeah, let's see. JC Jake asked Brooks about m Ai
- 31:52Speaker 4: S three A. I'm curious if Track County is going
- 31:54Speaker 4: to take back the throne or is another year for
- 31:58Speaker 4: the Mad Mafia.
- 31:59Speaker 5: Track and Leak Academy one and two Track County's one
- 32:02Speaker 5: Leaks too. I did see some like trash going back
- 32:06Speaker 5: and forth on social between them.
- 32:07Speaker 2: The other day.
- 32:08Speaker 5: Leak fan took a shot Track County, remember who beat
- 32:12Speaker 5: you last year?
- 32:12Speaker 2: That kind of thing.
- 32:13Speaker 5: That's it's always good to see. Track County picked up
- 32:16Speaker 5: a quarterback. Kid that was at Terry the last two
- 32:18Speaker 5: years as their starting quarterback went into Track County and
- 32:22Speaker 5: we'll be a big player for them.
- 32:24Speaker 4: Let's see here running backs. Tyson Robinson number one. Poplarville
- 32:30Speaker 4: will have something to say about this. Tikey's number two.
- 32:33Speaker 2: Yeah, but do you realize his numbers last year?
- 32:36Speaker 4: Tykeys? Yeah, I was unbelievable. It's ridiculous, unbelievable. You know,
- 32:40Speaker 4: if Tyson Robinson, by all accounts, he is healthy.
- 32:42Speaker 5: He's the ty Keys is the OFFENSEI player the year
- 32:44Speaker 5: for the whole state. Ty We picked him I think
- 32:46Speaker 5: in seven A, but I mean he ran for three
- 32:50Speaker 5: thousand something.
- 32:50Speaker 2: Yeah, it was.
- 32:51Speaker 6: It was unbelievable.
- 32:52Speaker 4: A Sley Brown at pedal number four, Christian Alexander Roseford.
- 32:56Speaker 4: We're talking running backs.
- 32:57Speaker 6: Kylon Bobo roose Ford has two D one guys too.
- 33:00Speaker 6: They're gonna be good.
- 33:01Speaker 2: Two D one running backs.
- 33:02Speaker 6: Yoshawn Hudson had whind known a number seven.
- 33:04Speaker 2: He's going to state?
- 33:06Speaker 6: Is he really?
- 33:06Speaker 2: Yep?
- 33:07Speaker 6: Again Michael Stephen or Stephan is Madison Central, but I believe.
- 33:11Speaker 5: Yeah, I didn't realize he had gone. I hate that
- 33:13Speaker 5: for Toby did know that one?
- 33:14Speaker 4: Yeah, Xavier Dennis Picky yun uh and then of course
- 33:17Speaker 4: several players to watch. It's a good running back class
- 33:21Speaker 4: as well. When you look at wide receivers, uh, Deshaun
- 33:26Speaker 4: Dillon at Northwest ranking number ones.
- 33:28Speaker 2: Not as deep a year at receiver as we have sometimes.
- 33:31Speaker 4: Yeah, you'll have some good pass catchers, but not as
- 33:33Speaker 4: deep as against some of these guys. Javarius Griffin at
- 33:35Speaker 4: Cleveland Central, Sheldon Isaac McCombe.
- 33:38Speaker 2: He's a senior.
- 33:39Speaker 6: Uh, Davis Davis Caruth at Oxford.
- 33:42Speaker 2: You know, but he went from park Lane to Oxford.
- 33:45Speaker 2: He's is that the Caruz family? Yeah?
- 33:47Speaker 5: Okay, Stephan He's a three thousand yard receiver at Park
- 33:51Speaker 5: Lane and he has legit speed. So he's first team
- 33:54Speaker 5: All State in seven A. And he remember he comes
- 33:58Speaker 5: in now with that quarterback from Memphis. Then all of
- 34:00Speaker 5: a sudden, Oxford is replaced. You know, the kids they
- 34:03Speaker 5: lost from last season.
- 34:05Speaker 6: Let's see J. C.
- 34:06Speaker 2: Jake.
- 34:06Speaker 4: If we had a WHIMS winner's bet, who would be
- 34:08Speaker 4: the winner for Tyson Robinson's services in college?
- 34:11Speaker 6: It's going to be Michigan because he has committed to
- 34:12Speaker 6: the Wolverines.
- 34:13Speaker 2: Think that's solid, Like you think that's done.
- 34:15Speaker 6: It's done. Yeah, it's a done deal.
- 34:17Speaker 5: Some im like I hadn't asked anybody about him, Like
- 34:19Speaker 5: I've heard of others that you hear old maybe they're
- 34:22Speaker 5: still in play. But that's good for him, Like he
- 34:25Speaker 5: could go up there and tear it up.
- 34:26Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean going up there to play for you know,
- 34:29Speaker 4: their first year head football coach. They came over from Utah. Yeah,
- 34:34Speaker 4: Kyle Whittingham, think how about that top of my head?
- 34:36Speaker 6: Man, that's that's really good.

- 36:30Speaker 5: I can ship them out. I haven't put that stuff
- 36:31Speaker 5: online yet, just because years past, you hate to get
- 36:35Speaker 5: into that place where everything's getting there too late. So
- 36:40Speaker 5: I'd rather do it this way and just be sure
- 36:42Speaker 5: because I'm not as worried as much about how many
- 36:43Speaker 5: we sell as in years past.
- 36:45Speaker 2: I just want to make sure they get out now.
- 36:47Speaker 4: Chris Ebelhare told me to tell you that Chris is
- 36:50Speaker 4: a really good name. It's a really good name.
- 36:52Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 36:53Speaker 5: Well, like my wife were Chris and Jennifer. Okay, does
- 36:56Speaker 5: it get any more of vanilla than that? Like that's
- 36:59Speaker 5: got to be the most popular names, I would imagine
- 37:01Speaker 5: from our generation or right there.
- 37:04Speaker 6: So he wants to know, is your real name? Is
- 37:06Speaker 6: it short for Christopher?
- 37:07Speaker 2: I am of course, Christopher.
- 37:08Speaker 6: You ever get called Taufer the back end of the name.
- 37:11Speaker 2: Pop somebody for that one who nobody uses tofer?
- 37:15Speaker 6: I bet you Ebel hair does. I bet you somebody calls.
- 37:18Speaker 2: Him that evil has a pretty cool last name.
- 37:21Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, forever I called him Ebel Harr forever
- 37:24Speaker 4: and he probably let you do it. Now he got
- 37:26Speaker 4: mad about it, did it?
- 37:27Speaker 6: Yeah? But now I think he just rolls with it. Okay,
- 37:29Speaker 6: So how do you say it? Don't you say it differently?
- 37:32Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 37:32Speaker 9: I always go Ebel Hair because the old voice guy
- 37:36Speaker 9: who did the branded shows last year, you know, because
- 37:39Speaker 9: he's from Oregon, so he knows nothing of our area
- 37:43Speaker 9: or the people here, so he thought it was Ebel Hair.
- 37:46Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 37:48Speaker 9: Also, we had that, Christopher, we had that discussion about
- 37:51Speaker 9: Taufer one day. It's terrible Taufer Grace remember that actor.
- 37:56Speaker 2: From that seventies show this. Yeah, it was a big deal.
- 38:00Speaker 9: That's a dumb name.
- 38:01Speaker 2: He was a big deal for a little bit, so
- 38:03Speaker 2: then just kind of went away.
- 38:04Speaker 7: You know.
- 38:04Speaker 5: It's always funny though, whenever I put that graphic out,
- 38:07Speaker 5: you know, the first thing I'm gonna get or a
- 38:10Speaker 5: bunch of laughing emoje.
- 38:11Speaker 4: She said, oh, yeah, yeah, there every year, Yeah, Chris
- 38:14Speaker 4: is distributed or put out the graphic for the top
- 38:16Speaker 4: twenty five.
- 38:17Speaker 6: I just shared it on X He's put it on Facebook.
- 38:19Speaker 4: I would assume you cut your social media off because
- 38:22Speaker 4: you know this is going in every high school football chat.
- 38:24Speaker 4: I mean, you've already made the city of Brandon mad.
- 38:27Speaker 4: They're done with you already at eleven.
- 38:29Speaker 2: I've actually gotten a text too, I know you did.
- 38:33Speaker 4: West Point is done with you already. So I mean
- 38:35Speaker 4: you're you're already making friends and you're not even two
- 38:38Speaker 4: hours and a.
- 38:38Speaker 5: He may be too big now to do this anymore,
- 38:40Speaker 5: but Brandon Walker and used to legit he was going
- 38:42Speaker 5: to send me a message if west Point was too low.
- 38:45Speaker 6: Really every year he loves West Point Lessie Saint Louis Vick.
- 38:49Speaker 5: Hey, can I clarify that on the branding thing? Yeah,
- 38:52Speaker 5: if you all are mad about where you're ranked, ky
- 38:54Speaker 5: be mad at coaches because that's where they ranked you.
- 38:57Speaker 2: They had you buried in seven eight. That's just a fact.
- 39:01Speaker 5: And then when I do the top ten, technically that
- 39:04Speaker 5: top ten or the top twenty five, that's mine. I
- 39:07Speaker 5: have to do that because I can. I can't ask
- 39:09Speaker 5: coaches to do that, but whenever I put that together,
- 39:13Speaker 5: it's going to be in accordance with what coaches send me.
- 39:16Speaker 5: So for instance, seven A two plows first tuplos off
- 39:21Speaker 5: the board. Well, then that moves Oak Grove up, so
- 39:23Speaker 5: then I can move them. But then you get to
- 39:25Speaker 5: a point where it's like the fifth place team in
- 39:27Speaker 5: seven A versus the top team and six you know
- 39:30Speaker 5: what I mean. So they're branding your where you are
- 39:33Speaker 5: because coaches voted you there in the preseason.
- 39:36Speaker 4: Yeah, if you go seven A specific Mississippi gridiron, I'm
- 39:38Speaker 4: looking at it right here.
- 39:39Speaker 6: You'll get it on Friday.
- 39:41Speaker 4: And Chris may put some more of these inprographs out
- 39:43Speaker 4: two Plow number one and seven A, Oak Grove, two,
- 39:45Speaker 4: Oxford three, Gulfport four, Madison, Central, Starvell Brand and Pedal
- 39:50Speaker 4: Ocean Springs in Northwest ranking, that's your top team.
- 39:53Speaker 2: That's that is straight from coaches, the rankings they send us.
- 39:56Speaker 4: And if you want to go by region two Plow
- 39:58Speaker 4: number one, Region one, Horn Lake, De Soto, Central, Hernando,
- 40:02Speaker 4: South Haven and Louisbourg. Region two Oxford which may be
- 40:06Speaker 4: the best region in the state. Oxford, Madison, Central, Startville, Clinton,
- 40:09Speaker 4: Germantown and Murra. Region three goes Oak Grove, Brandon, Pedal, Northwest, Pearl,
- 40:14Speaker 4: Meridian and Region four Gulfport, Ocean Springs, the Iberville, Biloxi,
- 40:18Speaker 4: Harrison Central, Orshimi West, Harrison, Saint Martin, and then Harrison Central.
- 40:22Speaker 5: Yeah, so those are just like I said, those are
- 40:24Speaker 5: strictly coaches rankings.
- 40:26Speaker 4: Let's see Saint Louis vic on the couple of Milwnis,
- 40:29Speaker 4: tex Snide. I hit a bad spot right before Lake
- 40:31Speaker 4: Cormorant did Old terry Land anywhere on Brooks's list. Chris Orsimi, Jake,
- 40:38Speaker 4: I got to come down Friday, weeks before any chance
- 40:42Speaker 4: of seeing some of these teams just getting just great smh.
- 40:47Speaker 4: Does this fifth year eligibility ruling make much of an
- 40:50Speaker 4: impact on power Force? It can potentially help similar programs.
- 40:53Speaker 4: Thanks guys, first off on this ruling, they're back and forth.
- 40:56Speaker 6: I don't know that this is going to go through.
- 40:58Speaker 4: I saw some stuff today from Hostela under this thing's
- 41:00Speaker 4: gonna get locked up in a four.
- 41:02Speaker 2: Fifth year thing?
- 41:03Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, Well I saw something when I was walking
- 41:05Speaker 5: in here that looked like the NCAA had stopped.
- 41:07Speaker 4: It trying to stop it. Yeah, yeah, it's definitely kind
- 41:10Speaker 4: of on a pause right now. If you're gonna be
- 41:12Speaker 4: here this Friday, Vic, there's a couple of ball games.
- 41:15Speaker 5: Yeah, there's Jay's traveling, and honestly, full disclosure, I haven't
- 41:21Speaker 5: dug in deep with games this week, not that I'm
- 41:24Speaker 5: protesting or I do whish they were a week later.
- 41:26Speaker 6: Well, you're just trying to get the magazine now.
- 41:28Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just.
- 41:28Speaker 5: Trying to get the magazine done and get all the
- 41:31Speaker 5: graphics and all that put together. But but like I know,
- 41:34Speaker 5: Simpson Academy plays Lamar School. That's a big three A
- 41:37Speaker 5: M A I. S. Game, So I'll probably go down
- 41:40Speaker 5: to that when Ja's traveling. Maybe the leak I have
- 41:43Speaker 5: to go back and look, I can't remember.
- 41:45Speaker 6: Yeah, we're gonna call this week minus one.
- 41:47Speaker 2: It's like week minus one.
- 41:48Speaker 4: Next week is week zero because the AIS plays they
- 41:51Speaker 4: may a week earlier than they and then week one
- 41:54Speaker 4: is going to be the next week. Phantom of the
- 41:56Speaker 4: Paper says, how about Christoff?
- 41:58Speaker 2: We can deal with that.
- 42:00Speaker 6: Christoph sounds like a hit man.
- 42:01Speaker 2: No, that sounds terrible. That's the guy from the Truman
- 42:03Speaker 2: Show though, the guy that was over everything. I don't
- 42:06Speaker 2: like that. Brooksy's okay, I can. I can roll with that.
- 42:10Speaker 9: J C.
- 42:11Speaker 4: Jake has a fascinating way of saying the word distributed.
- 42:14Speaker 4: He's putting the emphasis on the wrong slavels. In my head,
- 42:19Speaker 4: j C, give you how do I say it? I
- 42:22Speaker 4: don't even know how to say.
- 42:23Speaker 2: He don't say it all right.
- 42:24Speaker 9: What you asked Chris, if he was, you said they're distributing.
- 42:30Speaker 9: You said, are you distributing these to high schools?
- 42:33Speaker 6: I thought I said distributing.
- 42:35Speaker 9: See now you know it's for two in a row.
- 42:37Speaker 9: Now you've said it the right way. But when you
- 42:39Speaker 9: asked Christopher, you said, are you distributing these?
- 42:42Speaker 4: You make me want to do radio shows, so you
- 42:44Speaker 4: need I've been trying to get you, trying to get
- 42:46Speaker 4: you four years ago.
- 42:47Speaker 2: I just want to sit in here and listen to you.
- 42:49Speaker 2: But I don't know if there's any money.
- 42:50Speaker 4: It's harder to get you back than Connor McGregor Sawyer
- 42:54Speaker 4: it really so it's just you sound like Cam and
- 42:58Speaker 4: I got real quick.
- 43:00Speaker 5: I got Cam and Caleb to try to sell magazine ads.
- 43:04Speaker 5: I hope they're not listening. And I kind of knew
- 43:07Speaker 5: how that was going to go. God bless them. They
- 43:09Speaker 5: got a lot of nose, but they made those calls.
- 43:11Speaker 5: But they did it while I'm listening and Kim and
- 43:14Speaker 5: had a way of doing the Yeah, I'll work with
- 43:15Speaker 5: a Mississippi gridiron magazine. It made me think of you, like,
