#1 Brandon beats #6 Madison Central 21-14

[curmudgeon]

This right here. That last series last night for MC was nothing short of atrocious.

Hard to fire a high school coach that wins like he does just because he can't get over the OB/SP hump.

Madison Central
2012: 10-4 (7-0) District Champions, Lost Semifinals 38-6 to South Panola
2011: 11-3 (7-0) District Champions, Lost Semifinals 40-35 to Olive Branch
2010: 12-2 (6-1) District Co-Champions, Lost Semifinals 43-7 to South Panola
2009: 13-1 (7-0) District Champions, Lost Semifinals 36-21 to South Panola
2008: 12-2 (7-0) District Champions, Lost Semifinals 24-21 to South Panola

The guy has enough support to withstand any fire, and he thinks there should be a statue of himself on Highland Colony with the results above.

Sure those numbers look good... But when you break down the W's, most are against the garbage teams in their district

He's the Phil Fulmer of Mississippi high school football.

Of course that again goes back to the administration not knowing jack about football and the landscape. A trained monkey could beat Jim Hill with MC's talent. You would think that the obvious question would be "why can't we get over that hump"? But the answer is "oh, Bobby said it's just bad luck and we should be even better next year. Well, OK."

Honestly, the worst thing is the extreme lack of discipline that his teams show. And that honestly gets them beat against those "equal or better" teams more often than not. I was at the South Panola game where players were throwing helmets down the sideline about 35 yards in disgust in the second quarter while Hall stood there and did nothing. Then you had the Olive Branch debacle where he threw his hat almost to the midfield logo two or three times. Last week they almost got into a fight with Ridgeland at a jamboree.
