    No bet! Memphis quit caring about USS once MRC started running hard. Billy's the only person keeping that "Core Carrier" relationship alive.

    Probably not. But P&S and Maverick better watch out. Daseke was already a juggernaut. Now they will be unstoppable, especially in the South.

    And P&S is trying to grow too big too fast. Only been around since 2004, and already starting to shade towards "Mega" in some ways. Especially in how the drivers care for the equipment! (They don't!)

    I'm considering buying a bunch of their stock, beginning of this year they were over 14 a share currently at 8.5 a share

    Buy quick. Rumor has it P&S just grabbed a mid level carrier out of MN.

    Nothing announced yet, and I can't get a name outta anybody. Even with the thumbscrews! But between that, Purdy Bros, and Sharkey (or Shartle, what ever, a flatbed carrier outta FL), P&S has been expanding operations into the North and Midwest pretty steadily.
