    Thanks! Good info. I agree on the madison county situation. The Spencer's I knew are a great family but that trio from MC going to ole miss always made it feel like it'd be an up hill battle. Pumped about John Lewis from Germantown though.

    More on topic, does Lacoste still have training going on in that area?

    It's an uphill battle for MSU because of the Ole Miss boosters in the area going all out for players. If there was a MSU boosters that was equally as nuts as XenaReb 20 years ago you might have been looking at a Civil War in recruiting that probably would have hurt MSU, Ole Miss, and Madison Central.

    Yes, Paul Lacoste still does training in the area but he focuses more on regular people like me and I'm not sure if he even does athletes at all to be honest with you.

    I believe the Baptist Healthplex does football training as well and I've seen Anthony Dixon there every once in awhile working with players. I'm not sure if it's a side hustle for him or what the deal is. I'd like to see AD at D1 if it still exists.

    No pun intended when you said "buckle"? Yeah we're going to have to fight as usual like we always do. I'd like to see our boosters be proactive for once in Madison at MC.
