The only 2A schools we have played are the teams in our district. Everyone else has been 4A, 5A and 6A schools and that hasn't done anything but help us get better.

Last year we walked through the back door and nobody knew about us. This year everybody knows us, so we have to work harder. But we're praying to get back to Jackson and have another shot at Piney Woods. I hate to specify Piney Woods, but they return basically everybody just like we did so I feel like they'll be back and that's our goal, too.

I haven't made that decision. But I would certainly welcome the superintendent of schools, instead of pointing the finger at everybody and everything, taking some accountability of what is happening on his watch.

I think it's counter to the mission of the public schools to run the (home-school) programs.

Each coach on our staff will visit between 90-100 schools during the next four weeks as well as various combines located in our recruiting areas.

I have my doubts (that the schools will open on time). We have a law case out of Sojourner-Douglass, and at Chesapeake we have all kinds of issues.
