Built to many schools? Where? That's definitely not the problem. The problem is kids transferring throughout the county. Thinking they're going to get better looks or offers or win a state championship. But what they're really doing is helping coaches get that coach get his or her next job because they can't coach their own kids up to be successful that they have in their program .
Grimsley, Dudley, Page and Northern get majority of the talent. Northeast is also on the rise.
Grimsley, Dudley, Northern have EXCELLENT head coaches and staffs. Transfers go there because of that.
I’d look for all those transfers to Page to leave after this year. That staff is an absolute joke. Head coach too busy popping wheelies on his motorcycle.

Are you still bringing up that about the coach at Page. That's like a broken record just like these other people that bring up stuff about other stuff that going on in this country. Give it a break. You must really have something against that Coach. I guess the AD that stepped down is terrible as well ? Note he has a state championship ring he was a Coach on that staff that won it in 2011, championship runner up in 2015 and 2016. And he is a great coach that knows his stuff. Definitely a big boost having him back.
You do realize that Guilford County had like 80,000 plus kids at one time . Unlike Rockingham County that has a few 1000. Come on buddy.
I agree with that about the coaches they are very top notch coaches . Point taken but I still believe kids are chasing something they can get at their on schools if they work hard enough.
What is your point? My point still stands. I lived and worked in Guilford county so i know how it works. I don't care about Rockingham county, I don't watch any of the other teams besides Reidsville.
I said it was PART of the problem... Yes, transfers have made it worse, and is also part of the problem. But, when you have a bunch of schools with only 800-1000 students in a metro area such as the Triad, when you have 15 total high schools, you end up having football teams like High Point Central, Southern Guilford, and Southwest Guilford having hard times, because there should only be like 10-12 high schools in Guilford County. Instead of letting schools and communities grow and then building a new school, GCS had some fetish with building rural directional school's that werent really needed. Because these smaller schools can't keep up with the larger more prominent programs, football wise, this new age of football transfers have worsened these programs that were already having a tough time for many years.

Maybe a player is in another district at QB. Coach left for the Tville job likely hurt the numbers coming back as well. S Guilford has the kids to field a very competitive team and it is a trend across the state and country of teams folding. Graham folded their varsity. HP Central has no varsity in a school that big. A few towards the mountains and down east have no varsity or JV.
I don’t think Southern has the kids to field a competitive team in football or any sport. I have no clue with going in there but it seems like they don’t care about sports anymore.
This is straight up false.
Southern or any of the directional schools can be very competitive. All it really takes is good coaching continuity, and the kids will show up.
Saying they don't care about sports is absolutely ridiculous.
If you have no clue, like you said, then its probably best that you don't post about things you don't know.
Southern's head coach left, and kids transferred out afterward. Transfers compounded with the school not having high enrollment numbers in general, makes it a lot harder for them to compete with the schools on their schedule.
