Prep makes a big deal about beating really lousy Pearl team by 50. That same Pearl team lost to Canton by 4+ touchdowns and Yazoo City. Are you claiming Canton and Yazoo City are football powerhouses?
The point coach is trying to make is that Pearl had a much larger enrollment. Regardless of what you think, or what coach34 thinks, the facts are what they are. The MAIS schools have won the majority of the football games played against the MHSAA schools. This is despite the fact that in the vast majority of the games, the MAIS school was playing a MHSAA school with a much larger enrollment. Prep vs. Bassfield was one of the few exceptions where the public school was willing to play a private school and the private school had the larger enrollment. Usually it is the other way around.Quote:

They've beaten Madison Central in 7 on 7 and Northwest Rankin in a jamboree for whatever that's worth.
