    NWC 3A/4A: Who Wins 9/12

    It’ll be interesting to see once conference starts how the “cupcake” non-conference schedule teams fair against those that faced a much harder non-conference schedule.

    Homeschool and Private School Participation in Public School Sports

    T Just a FYI - the NCHSAA recently changed the passing requirement. Rather than “pass 3” it’s now “pass 70%.” If a kid only takes 3 courses, they have to pass all 3 to be eligible. If they take 4, they have to pass 3, etc.

    Projected 2a West Bracket

    I’d bet they are getting hammered with complaints and protests by everyone negatively affected by this. But I can’t see them changing their position

    Projected 2a West Bracket

    Correct. Everyone was given the same directives - 11th game was only supposed to be between teams who had already maxed out regular season (which is why it wasn’t to be entered into Maxpreps). NCHSAA has decided to leave the 11th game in rather than remove the game from Maxpreps and treat it as...

    QUESTION

    NCHSAA is allowing the 11th game to stand for Robbinsville. Robbinsville (and anyone they played) are negatively impacted, TC positively impacted by getting another win and increasing their RPI.

    QUESTION

    NCHSAA allowed for an 11th game to be played, but it was NOT supposed to count towards RPI. The Robbinsville game v TC should NOT count in Robinsville’s RPI, but SHOULD count for TC Roberson. The 5-6 record is harming 1A brackets but also harming 2A brackets (since Robbinsville played East...

    Scores 10-4

    Actually, East Surry isn’t “similar size.” Realistically, ES should be playing 1A, and is smaller than several current 1A’s, but the last realignment messed them over. Doesn’t help with your argument against WC (actually makes it worse). Just providing context.

    Robbinsville at East Surry

    East scored on a long TD pass, popped a long run, and again on a QB scramble run. Had a chance 1st and goal but didn’t convert. Some positive things for the Cards but also several things that need to be cleaned up. Still, a solid win v. a solid club and perennial contender.

    2024 Talent compared to 2023

    If Hartle was going to be a 1st Rounder out of HS he wouldn’t have gone on to Wake (was projected to be 2nd-3rd rd out of HS, could have gone higher if he had a little better year this past year at Wake). As for Wilson, I think 12th rd means you have enough talent that it’s worth giving it a...

    Mount airy @ East Surry

    I don’t think so. Daddy Whitt might be a good technical coach (for the select few kids he chooses to focus on coaching), but he will NOT be missed in regards to culture and staff camaraderie. Long term, this is a case of addition by subtraction.

    Mount airy @ East Surry

    I guess the defection of Whitt to West wasn’t as big of a loss for the East coaching staff as everyone made it out to be. East beat West 20-0.

    Mount airy @ East Surry

    This is not true TD. Make sure you know the facts before posting false claims and rhetoric. Starmount approached him about their vacancy. Cannot blame him for at least listening and entertaining the advances. He chose to stay at ES. Best of luck to the Bears the rest of the season. They have...

    Mount Airy/East Surry

    If I remember correctly, Greg Greene caught a skip pass that appeared to hit the ground (but wasn’t called) in the right flat and then cut back across the left and took it probably 60-65yds for a score. That TD shouldn’t have counted, but ES still had a chance to stop the Bears and secure the...

    East Surry - Seth Keener

    Keener had a good career at East Surry (pretty sure he was a conference Player of the Year), but to say he got no press is a little misleading. He was a 2020 grad and was robbed of his senior year. Like it or not, football gets more press than baseball and the 2019 ES football team won a state...

    MA vs Tarboro for the Ship!

    Yell at you in front of everyone? Smart to walk off? What the crap are you talking about? You must have hit the celebration juice immediately after the win. I made a very tongue-in-cheek comment on a message board about a select group of MA fans who have been overly critical of JK the past 5...
