Looks like Marceline may be headed to the CCC

to replace Louisiana. From KHQA's Chris Duerr:

Looks like Marceline might be the front runner to replace Louisiana within the Clarence Cannon Conferences per multiple sources around that league. From both a geographic and positioning standpoint, that would make sense as well as naturally fold “The Bell Game” into the Conference’s tapestry. Obviously, Marceline’s reputation only further serves to enhance the difficulty of an already difficult league and gives the better teams in the Cannon a far sterner test than It received in recent years from Louisiana. Not sure, that plays as favorably for Highland as it does for the Monroe City, but we will see what shakes. I talked to a source earlier last week who indicated that there rumblings of a potential union with Kirksville. On deeper dig, there was absolutely no traction there whatsoever.

Man, if true that is quite the addition. Link.

I can’t really see Kirksville joining the CCC. It is a bigger school than all the schools in the CCC

Bigger is not better in this case, at least from a football perspective. I can't remember the last time they beat Macon, and we used to play regularly. The case seems to be moot at this point according to the story.

If that did happen, that would be the death knell for the NCMC.

Best thing about Kirksville.. they have a bathroom INSIDE THE PRESS BOX! This should be a MSHSAA mandate for all press boxes

Especially since Boonville is leaving the NCMC after this school year.
