Last Chance U (Netflix Series)

[Jake]

Anybody else watch this? It focuses on the 2015 season of East Mississippi CC, in Scooba, MS. The Lions were the 2011, 2013, and 2014 JC National Champions who never got a shot to defend their title due to events that unfolded during their season. The coach is a foul-mouthed hard-ass, a lot of behind the scenes stuff is shown, including the academic struggles of the players. Some interesting insight into the JC recruiting-process is featured. It also features John Franklin III, an FSU transfer (a RS Freshman on their 2013 NC team) who is ultimately recruited/signed by Auburn, and last I saw their expected starting QB this fall.

Really good show. It's only six episodes, and I breezed through it over the past three nights.

Some East MS CC alumni include LaGarrette Blount, current Ole Miss QB Chad Kelly, and former Ole Miss QB Bo Wallace. Also, former WVU QB Clint Trickett is the QB Coach.

For the first time since winning their last title in 2018, EMCC is back in the title game taking on defending champs Iowa Western.

EMCC upset the unbeaten top seed in the semis, who happened to be the only team to defeat Iowa Western.

It's on ESPNU right now if anyone just wants to see some football. They still have the same head coach from the show.

I'm watching as well. Some decent talent in this game

Looks like this would've been a better game if Iowa Western faced the only team who beat them, but EMCC won their way here.

Two upsets are harder than one, unless you're the 2014 Buckeyes.
