Unknown to many, Jackson Academy has been working on changing its logo that appears on the varsity football helmets. The Kingfish has many sources in many places. One source sent the new logo to JJ. Will it be rolled out for jamboree? Check it out.
Yes, this is satire.

It’s because they are still stuck in the Stone Age, right?
Why not let the school release its logo in its time?
Y'all need to go back and read Kingfish's last story on JA. You'll (maybe) get the joke then.
Looks like a tipped over Christmas tree to me.
Maybe they can tomahawk chop. Games are going to have Atlanta-type atmospheres.
The JA Arrows joke was slightly funny the first time. Now, not so much. JA is just doing what the others are doing. It’s amazing the amount of money that is being wasted in an effort to win a ballgame.
The JA over Clinton Football after taking 6 of their players😂😂
They can’t develop talent so they go recruit it.
First I’ve seen it. I think it’s hilarious. And no, sorry, JA is not “just doing what the others are doing”. Tell us another school with 15 high school athletes transferring in this year. I’ll wait. Oh yeah, and 7 or 8 are from 1 school - Clinton Arrows.
Ha. This would actually be very fitting.
Lighten up, Francis. This gets funnier every day.
I don’t think any public or private school has gone this overboard to win some games. If I was some of these recruits, I would be embarrassed to be there
They can’t develop players so they just recruit other schools’ talent.
Damn - felt sure it would be a heads hot of their six- pac NIL deal! What a disappointment
What’s the baseball helmet going to look like this year…
Anyone know the number of recruits baseball has picked up?
Jackson Academy- “The state’s largest private school: half paying kids, half transfer portal”
I was having coffee this morning and over heard a recruits dad say,
Whettack’s motto: “Public athletes first, paying families last.”
Even if not true, disappointing that people are talking like this about a school that was once prestigious.

Jackson Academy: “Public kids play, private kids pay.”
How thick are yall????
Clinton (and the other public schools) doesn't have to do anything but let a few years pass and maybe hire a better AD. JA has to keep spending hundreds of thousands a year to stay competitive. Time is not on JA's side. Nor Hartfield's.
Jackson Academy – Recruit, replace, ruin. That’s the whole playbook
JA – Pay $20k a year to watch a recruit from Clint on make your kid look useless
Aw, that’s cute, 7:12 thinks JA was prestigious at some point.
I do feel sorry for Jackson Academy. They had lost for so many years while other private schools were bringing in recruits. They just did it the wrong way. Bringing in so many in one year that are juniors and seniors just doesn’t go well. Hopefully, they can bounce back in a few years but I think they have tarnished their name
Eddie Whettach went from rebooting computers in the IT closet to rebooting an entire school into oblivion in just 30 days. From tech support to total school destruction—fastest downgrade in Jackson Academy history.
I give it a few months before some imported player’s entourage causes an incident.
An arrowhead? What's wrong with Chief John Two Guns White Calf?
JA Baseball - 8 of 9 starters this year will be recruits who transferred to JA this year or last
I grew up in south Mississippi. We would travel to Jackson several times a a year to play Jackson Academy. I did find Jackson Academy a prestige school. It had a tradition of having great students, family atmosphere and all of this done in the heart of Jackson. Over the past couple years, they’ve changed their values. They’ve committed to winning at all costs. It started with basketball, baseball and football. The problem is now they’re so committed to all of these recruits they cannot pull back. I don’t see how the school makes it much further. If it does it will never be what it used to be. That is a sad thought.

School choice is great.
Good for those recruits bettering their lives
I wouldn't brag on my sources if this was the best I got.
Recruiting is happening everywhere. Desoto County schools are losing their athletes to private schools in Mississippi and Tennessee at an accelerated rate. Money. Greed. Unregulated for now. At what point will the private academies be on the hook to pay for child labor? US Supreme Court says you have to pay.
