    Some astronomically low percentage of kids play at the next level. Kids will continue to want to play there because (1) they win (2) the culture (3) they grow up through the program - all the way down to Pop Warner Now, this generation of kids though - they all think they are going D1 and they...

    Wait a second….now I’m confused. Not that it matters, and it wasn’t the point of the thread….but you think Crest beats you at home with their backup QB?

    And your point on Chris Leak was a good one. Joe Cox started after him. Yeah he went to UGA. That’s not a knock to Knotts - probably the best to ever do it in the NCHSAA.

    You certainly don’t wipe out any probability that another player could have had similar production. I’m saying he was a statistical anomaly. He led you in rushing for a reason. Didn’t he win 5a player of the year? Yeah those types of guys are everywhere. How many D1 Quarterbacks have y’all had...

    I was just informed that they have another kid that plays on the defensive line that has D1 offers. Miami just offered. He’s going to be a junior.

    Setzer is a good guy. One of those defensive linemen has offers from everyone. Likely will end up at South Carolina I’ve been told

    Hawkbill - good luck in that conversation. No way Crest beats SP at SP without Hamrick.

    I’m from the eastern part of the state. Played at St. Pauls in the early-mid 90’s. I keep up with them and several other teams down there. St. Pauls loses their QB and RB. Imagine they will be down next year.

    EG QB going to SC would definitely be impactful. Good athlete. Throws the ball well, and is tough. I’ve watched him (and coached against him) since the Pop Warner days. Played QB and linebacker in Middle School. The kid that is more intriguing is the running back. Played for Belmont Middle in...

    They don’t beat SP at SP in the playoffs without Hamrick. There…I said it.

    Let’s come at this from a different angle… I don’t think you guys are acknowledging just how much Hamrick meant to your team (again, still a good team without him) but he was quite literally dominant. Looking at the 3 best 5a teams in the West (and arguably the state), Hamrick represented a...
