Looking at past seasons, he seems to be the best coach Crest had. Kirby wasn't bad either even though Crest dropped classes. He must have been something for Tommy Knotts to grab him as defensive coordinator. These days Crest seems to be enamored with those eastern NC coaches with the country charm but struggling offenses.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and mine is that Coach Barnes was and still is the best coach Crest ever had.

Barnes without any question is the best X’s and O’s coach to walk the sidelines at Crest. Stewart took the program to the next level, but the talent that came through back then was epic. Barnes could coach any style. QB or no QB. I wish he’d come back today.

Barnes was certainly a nice guy AND could have another ring apart from a bad kick ..is he still coaching?

They were close Chopper from my understanding. He loves this area, things were in the works and they suddenly changed. There are those on this board that could speak more on it, don’t know if they would.

How can you make that kind of statement? Sumter has a proud football history and have always turned out FBS football talent as far back as I can remember. They also have a few South Carolina 4A state titles under their belt if you didnt know.
You and CrestRulz kept it straight up but my sarcasm was intentional. I hate that “never” crap. The right talent with an already proven coach can do a lot of things at this level. I may be a Burns guy but I’m also a realist. Those kids played hard for Barnes.
