    Questions about being a Head Coach in North Carolina

    Yeah, GA Football HC's routinely get 12 months, plus a $10k+ supp.

    Rosman in search of a Football Coach

    If facts equals "digs." Maybe he isn't as great as the resume type posts I've seen in this thread, claim he is. Just saying.

    Rosman in search of a Football Coach

    Who isn't giving him a chance? I was replying more to the fact of "maybe he'll turn this around." From what I see, the turn around already happened, and they threw that coach under the bus. Rosman isn't the only one to do this, this year even. I think Southeast Guilford is guilty as well...

    Rosman in search of a Football Coach

    No, my point was: Third season, three years, and he only beat three teams last year. Morehead and Rockingham are terrible. Sam Story is no longer at Williams, so they aren't the world beaters they once were. The bigger point was, Rosman had a turnaround (someone was hoping "this was it,"...

    Rosman in search of a Football Coach

    So in 2015 Rosman went 7-5, beat everyone in a tough conference but the 3 big boys, went into the playoffs and lost to Murphy by 1 point. They beat Brevard for the first time ever (3 times in a row) Broke a Multi-season losing streak All under the old coach, who bled black and orange (from...

    Haywood Co. joining the ranks of volunteer coaches....

    Right? $2 Million is a tremendous amount, and she sits there with a straight face and blames the local charter school and the Republicans. Any other business and she'd be canned, an audit done, reports released, and most likely people arrested.

    Murphy's Coach Gentry poses good question to the NCHSAA Board

    I agree most of my comments have been sarcasm, but Gentry up there is laying it all on, all charter schools. You can't just pick out certain ones. Whatever happens will happen to Charter Schools Magnet Schools Private Schools Let at Highland Tech, 1A magnet. They'd be basically 3a if they...

    Haywood Co. joining the ranks of volunteer coaches....

    Of course it has, and like elsewhere "rivalry" and nostalgia over ride common sense. I don't think keeping a school open, and draining money, in a broke county because of "Bears vs. Mounties." is common sense. Broke, doesn't begin to cover it. In debt, red, $2 million. I think the state...

    Graham and Cummings athletic programs on the chopping block

    Naaah, those days are gone. They need to just close them. You have 3 high schools within minutes of each other. $100,000+ Admins, extra staff, building costs, the amount of money that could be saved is ridiculous. A-B schools isn't the only district that needs to make these tough choices...

    Murphy's Coach Gentry poses good question to the NCHSAA Board

    Yeah, lets make kids play at 2x their enrollment. Some of those little charter schools would be 3a.

    Way off base? Bethel has 1 group per grade level, and the other middle schools are within 10 min (give or take) Elementary Schools with empty classes cost money Pisgah was a 3A, now a 2A Tuscola was a 4A now it is at the bottom of 3A They are 7 miles apart, shrinking, in a county with a...

    Murphy's Coach Gentry poses good question to the NCHSAA Board

    They need to make more state championships so everyone can get a trophy. The simplest thing (not x2 multi, and getting kids hurt on the football field) would be to make separate state championships. Public small and big single A. Then a Non-traditional single A. Leave the rest alone.

    You can dang well be sure there will no cuts, or reduction in the central office. Super is busy blaming other people and things for her weakness. They need to close Bethel. period They need to close several of the older Elem. They need to start the talks on combing the two high schools.

    Haywood Co. joining the ranks of volunteer coaches....

    Good grief. They are $2 Million in debt. Most of the schools are at 60% capacity. Empty classrooms, half empty buildings. Millions in debt. That isn't the legislatures' fault.

    Millennium Charter Academy Athletic Complex

    NC has had crappy schools, with underpaid teachers for DECADES. You know what they do in other states? In Georgia, we border them, the county collects taxes and they give $1000's of dollars in supplements, to teachers. In NC? You have yahoos squealing about how you shouldn't be in education...
