Perhaps. But at least Evangel had the balls to always play up in the highest level they were allowed


I remember after this Evangel was forced by LHSAA to play back down to the class that their enrollment matched which I think was 1A. When this was announced at West Monroe, the rumor was, the entire school stood up in class and started cheering.

I lived in S’port in the early 2000’s. One of my good friend’s son was recruited and brought into Evangel his junior year. He went on to play SunBelt college ball. But Evangel could basically bring any all district player from the metro that they wanted to.

I always thought it was such an ugly school. Just a bunch of portable buildings and a nice looking football field/stadium.

In the show, Duron mentioned 60% of the kids attending the school or playing received financial aid. Wasn't clear which. That's quite crazy honestly.

While I'm sure there were plenty of WM fans happy about this, the fact that people think it was announced on the morning intercom and the whole school cheered speaks volumes about the naivety of our population.
