glad we finally got to play you guys, and again, congratulations to your community. The boys gave you guys all that they had.
Football isn’t the only sport though. The Vikings are dominant in football and not much else.Congrats Tarboro. You are who I thought you were…and then some. I will say this, and don’t take this the wrong way, but I honestly think Tarboro belongs in a bigger classification, no less than 3a. From what I saw yesterday, and from the results of this year and the last decade, they are just too good to ever be in 1 a or 2a. I don’t care what the ADM numbers say. I’m not gonna lie, Murphy was pretty stacked this season. They had talent, experience, and depth all over the place and a generational talent at RB in Clem. That team deserved and in most cases would have been able to win a state championship. But it couldn’t even score a single point against Tarboro. It’s disheartening to know that no matter how good you are, Tarboro will be waiting at the end. It will take a 2a team with generational talent all over the place (like Mount Airy and East Surry had when they beat Tarboro in the 1a bracket) playing a near perfect game to have a better than average chance of beating Tarboro and winning it all. It shouldn’t be that way. Tarboro should be battling it out with the likes of Shelby or Reidsville for all the marbles.
Anyway, rant over and congrats again to Tarboro. Great team and class program. Congrats to Murphy’s team too. They had a great season and did the best they could yesterday, but were just overmatched.
I think anyone in 2a, if they are being honest, would trade places with Tarboro in a split second if given the opportunity.Football isn’t the only sport though. The Vikings are dominant in football and not much else.
Super player at DE, he and #2 are definitely next level players.It looks like DE #7 Tyler Powell picked up an offer from Lenior-Rhyne after the game last night.
That's awesome! Good for him. Does the young man who won defensive player of game for you all have any offers? I cannot lie, I would've loved to have him play for us. Great ball player!Super player at DE, he and #2 are definitely next level players.
Big #71 for Murphy J'Anthony Gooden picked up offers from Catawba and Fayetteville State this past week as well.
#84? No offers that I'm aware of. I know he's a little light for a DE but I believe he's a college level player and hope someone pulls the trigger on him, definitely one of the best DE's I've seen at Murphy.Does the young man who won defensive player of game for you all have any offers?
