250-260 all muscle!!!! Almost sounds like Jimmy Graham 2.0! Ha Yeah, I always hope for the best for our south MS prospects. We're really a very underrated source of football talent. The heated rivalries between Jackson, Harrison, and Hancock county schools breeds some fierce competition. I went to Hancock, by the way. Back when we were good. My senior year (2001-2002) was our first year at 5A (the biggest class back then), and everyone said we were going to get smashed. We ended up 9-2 and missed out on south state because of a BS tiebreaker. We were tied for second in our district with Meridian, and they beat us on a points tiebreaker. Of course, Brandon HS and Jerrius Norwood were #1. That kid was another freak on the field! Hattiesburg had the #1 passing game in the state that year, and we beat them twice in one night. We won the game, and on the last snap we cleared the sidelines and sent them home with a good old fashioned ass kicking to boot. LOL I'm on a tangent reminiscing now. My bad.
