Lemont Wilson (no relation) was another Kings Mountain kid. To be fair Lemont came over prior to playing varsity football at Burns but he is originally from KM and played for KM Elite all the way up. Zavion was moved up to varsity as a freshman at KM and as a sophomore got a lot of reps at outside linebacker. KM was very high on him but he wanted to play running back.
Lemont...that dude could play. I was always surprised he wasn't featured more...don't know the story there. I think maybe he was TOO versatile???? could be used in too many places and help so didn't stay in just one position? Don't know.
With that said....nobody going to be bold enough to make scored predictions on here about the CC games?

It baffles me that a guy who claims to be as smart as you can’t grasp the concept of cutoffs. Did every school at the lower end of the cutoff get unlucky (yes) and did every school at the upper end of the cutoff get lucky (yes). However just because SC got lucky and ended up at the upper end of 4A instead of the lower end of 5A, doesn’t mean they are supposed to be 5A. I got an idea, take one of your DB’s to Carowinds and when he is an inch too short to ride the roller coaster and some 12 year old kid is 2 inches taller and able to ride it, it may start making some sense.
I claim to be smart? You either know what you know....or you don't know it. There is plenty I don't know. But I am not going to delude myself or anyone else for the sake of being PC. How dull would these boards be if that were the case?
Besides.... a lot of people know as it was told to me the powers that be begged for that slot in that 4a class and to skip conferences.

He who? I also have people who told me how it went down and it contradicts whatever you heard. It really doesn’t matter who is right. Our enrollment has Cramer a 4A school by the parameters set by the NCHSSA, and we will try and do the best in 4A we can.
