Hall of Fame

Darryl “Scoop” Grady (Class of 2007) was a four year track star and state champion along with one of the most elusive football student athletes to ever walk the halls at Jennings Senior High.   Scoop was a junior during the historic 2006 (9-2) Conference Champion football team where he broke the school record in receiving yards at 513 yards on 35 receptions (14.7 avg. yards per catch) along with 73 carries for 595 yards (8.2 avg.).  In his senior season, Scoop tallied 2 more receptions from the previous year with 37 receptions for 616 yards (16.6 avg.) along with and 68 carries for 433 yards (6.4 avg.).  Most of the receptions to Scoop were quick screen, wide receiver screen, play action screen, and quick hitting – high percentage passes that he would break for so many first downs and touchdowns.   The night of November 8th, 2006, Scoop compiled 237 receiving yards and 3 touchdowns from QB Nelson Rainey, who threw for a total of 343 yards in our season ending playoff loss to Parkway North.   Scoops receiving statistics are still a school record today.  When looking at his averages of when he touched the football, you can understand how he single handedly made his football teams that much more successful.  Scoop Grady went on to play college football at Highland community college in Kansas then transferred to Lindenwood University.  After college, Scoop played professional indoor football with the St. Louis Attack where he played running back.   It was in his college years where scoop discovered his gift of gab and gradually began working on his comedic podcast called “Da inside Scoop” where you can catch the latest laughs from this Jennings legend.  Scoop is a proud father to his son Brayden and husband to his wife Tam.
