Well, there goes the only chance those football players will have at a college opportunity.

Perfect business opportunity for an underground football league.

I bet some kids will now get married in a fever. Hotter than a pepper sprout.

Kills any chance that an underrated football player could get noticed his senior year and get a college scholarship. Black community leaders can’t get out of their own way

Wonder how many drop outs that leads to.

AJA, it's honestly sad. For hundreds and thousands in the South if athletics isn't a reason to show up, will they?

I’m sure all will be cancelled shortly but does this include Jackson burbs as well?

The are fricking over some students that will never get another chance to go to college.

Playing football is not the problem

What exactly is the appeal of Jackson? I've heard there is a college there for people that can't get in to a nursing or PA program anywhere else, but outside of that, why would anyone want to live in or around Jackson?

Maybe those scholarships will go to kids that actually belong in a university

No, these are only schools in the Jackson Public School District. Callaway, Provine, Murrah, Forest Hill, Jim Hill, Lanier, and Wingfield.

Do these schools usually field good teams?
