EW cards...i hate to disagree...but if they're arent some major shifts in the paradigm at EW...then they will have a lot of Seniors..with a 2nd round exit in the playoffs....Just wasn't impressed with them...they underachieved with the talent they have....and without major changes...i see it repeating itself next year....I mean Elkin beat them....WC and Starmount destroyed them....there is no way that either of the three should have happened.
For MA HATERS only!
- Thread starter buzzcoach
- Start date
I hope East Wilkes & Starmount can give MA a game next year and maybe Elkin. we need better competition in our regular season to be prepared for the playoffs. I mean 9 shut-outs a running clock before the half most every game, The BEARS beat themselves Friday night with I think Buzz said 175 yds in penalties. Best of luck next year !
Look TD, Mitchell came to your house and they beat you, not the ref's, not the coaches, the Mitchell football team beat you. Show some respect and admit it....
Yep...you weren't at the game TD...i was...and Mitchell ran it down MA's throat...and MA was down 14-0 before you knew it...Everybdy there knew it was over then. Just didn't think the entire organization would fall apart like they did though. I just hope MA doesn't shut every one out...brag about it all year...then fall flat on their face in embarrasing fashion like they did against Mitchell.
If you would read all my posts instead of the ones you can be a smart AZZ about you would see I have congratulated them several times and told them I was pulling for them to win it all so don't make your whinny I don't have a team to support and lie about what I post. I'm sick of you crybaby posters that have no team to support so to post on there you pick a team you can't beat to put their posters down. Mount Airy and Mitchell posters have said we got a bad crew of Refs. Daaaaaaaa Mountaineers are in it to win it ! ! ! You are the loser because when has your team made it past the first round or beat a team like Mount Airy or East Surry ?
I agree BluePrint, this group underachieved this year. Not sure exactly what could be changed but I personally thought play selection on both sides of the ball had a large part to do with the failure. Hopefully things change over the next year and this group gets it together. The talent is definitely there but what they do with it , remains to be seen.
My Elk’s have more state titles in the last 40 years than MA and ES combined…lol
If you had I team that could win then you would be bragging too and don't say you wouldn't. ! I have been on here for 13 plus years and have seen it all. Posters brag when their team wins but put other teams down when your teams are losers. Stop your petty whinning on about teams that are winners. Look at the SMC, they brag when they are winners but when was the last time you heard Swain bragging ? Winners are going to brag as they have for my 13 years on here. Albemarle has quit bragging. Mount Airy did get to the sweet 8 in the west, when did your team win its last game ? You whinner are just showing your jealousy of a traditionally winning team. Good luck on your team next year, Mount Airy does need some competition !
Daaaaaaaa Mountaineers are in it to win it ! ! !

Past tense, and Mount Airy has beat Elkin way more times played in the last 40 years and I don't see them beating Mount Airy anytime soon.
I don’t have a problem with people bragging on their team but give the winning team credit for winning. MA didn’t beat themselves Mitchell beat them.
Go back and look, I Congratulated Mitchell as soon as the game was over, or better yet let them tell you that I did and how respectful I was to them. You are climbing up the wrong tree. Also, it was not a Mount Airy fan that started the thread, basically saying MA beat themselves from coaches down. I am not sure who NCTheOne 's team is.
Mitchell wins. MA: total meltdown
Should be some very good games the next two years. Robbinsville is very young this year. Only lose 11 seniors and half of them don't start. We are sophomore heavy.
Biggest loss for Robbinsville will be the kicker.
I’m quoting your own post “ The BEARS beat themselves Friday night”. Are you trying to say you didn’t say that?
Learn how to spell as well TD...it's whiner...not winner or whatever your illiterate azz is tryin to spell...now go run and hide...fair weather fan...when MA wins again..i guess your health will be just fine...now run along...maybe next year..Glad i saw MA meltdown in person..my $ will not be on them in the late rounds next year...i don't care how many points they beat everybody in the NW conference by...
EW Cards...until EW manufactures a pulse on defense..then you can always look for them to be middle or bottom of the pack.
M
MA had more total yards on offense. 174 yards in penaltys difference.
Points are what wins a ballgame, not yards…

The biggest point is you have a losing team and put down people that have winning teams to be proud of !
Care to compare state titles?The biggest point is you have a losing team and put down people that have winning teams to be proud of !
Mount Airy has won 7 from what I have been told. But Elkin has not done much since 2005 and won't for at least the next 3 years. When was the last time they beat Mount Airy ? Losers want to talk about what has been when now and the future is what they need to worry about. It's called the has been syndrome, living in the past. 2001 to 2005 Elkin didn't have to play East Surry or Mount Airy in the 1AA Elkin was small 1A. So nothing to compare but being losers the last few years. You got to worry about East Wilkes, Starmount, and Mount Airy the next few years. Sorry
MA has never been a team to get the job done, period. Holder or any other coach. You were the first western team to lose in 1a and this was MA playing down to 1/a. MA is good in the area but the area is weak. Once MA goes outside everbody knows what happens, like last week…Mount Airy has won 7 from what I have been told.

My point was Mitchel didn't run down MA s throat like was said. Take penaltys away MA wins period. 21-14 MA had 5 scores called back a fumble at 1 ft line and missed TD pass to wide open receiver.
MA beat Elkin one of the years y'all won state. Better be glad we didn't go small. Fact I'd MA was the smallest school in 1AA every time. Lost to a great WRH on small in ot in state. You are a miserable old man.
Dad of MA best fball player at MA SC 
game other night was talking to other dad parents about how bad Coach Adkins was with discipline and leadership. Talked how boys would say how he would get confused on play calling. He said Adkins was clearly reason MA lost. Said he did not have control of his kids.

Adkins is the best a school like MA can get… and that includes Holder.Dad of MA best fball player at MA SC
If Holder was head coach Friday night I can promise Mount Airy would have won that game. He is a coach that can make adjustments and control his players. He never lost control of himself or his players in any game and his players looked up to him and listened.
He would have lost too...Mitchell had your # that night..and the players didnt know how to respond to a team that wasn't beat before they stepped off the bus and it showed...I do have to say that he nor the 2015 EW team that he coached...didnt melt down like he did the other night. But Mitchell beat EW that night after falling behind 14-0 on a very good EW squad. Mitchell has better coaching than any of the NW area teams other than Lowman at E.Surry
He is but not the head coach and I think he was in the in or on top of the press both probably watching with disbelief of how out of control the coach let it get. 5 sideline flags
Adkins is not the coach for Mount Airy. He clearly lost control at the last game. With the players and talent he had this year, all he had to do was show up for the first 13 games. The team Lost when it mattered most and Adkins is the leader in that case. It comes with the territory. His judgement in certain situations has been an issue for me from the time he started. I also had issues with Holder when he coached, but in comparison, Holder is much better as head coach for a variety of reasons. Whether Holder ever regains the position, we will see, but as I stated earlier, Adkins is not the coach Mount Airy football needs at this time. I am siding with Buzz on this. I too have heard complaints from the parents and Buzz and I don’t travel in the same circles.
I believe you already know what needs to be changed. Pretty sure the Graham is back at Central! I guess it is just bad luck that all our players quit, transfer, or just end up hurt!!!
Back at Central?...Their program is def one of the worst around as well..Wish the Kaman Smith kid would come back to EW..Word on the street..is not so sure they welcome him (Graham)back at Central with open arms...oh well...He did well the 2 or 3 games he played for EW...especially against the shabby teams that weren't nearly as good as EW....and oh yeah....change is definitely needed.
This reminds me of the Ablemarle loss back in 2007. The only thing different was that was a jr heavy team and this team is a sophomore heavy team. Everything is gonna be fine. If we are having this same conversation next year then it will be a very different story. The talent left leaves the bears loaded. I would imagine that the bs that you seen will most likely never happen again. I like the style of football that jk has brought to the granite city. Like the physical style and rotation up front on both sides of the football.. They will be twice as good next year, and the year after , even that much better. JV and middle school have a steady flow of very good football players heading to coach Adkins. Someone correct me if I’m wrong but the middle school hasn’t lost in several years. Gallimore is doing a heck of a job over there. The little league program is the best it has ever been. It all starts there. Again someone correct me if I’m wrong here but Claybo is heading that up? ( Former nfl lineman ). I think we all as fans need to relax , I’m sure coach realizes his mistakes, and will correct them. The fact that these sophomores just experienced the first loss on the field since they have been playing is something not mentioned. Lot of factors here guys. Something tells me that will be used as fuel. How bout that backfield next year, both sides of the ball on the line? Loaded. Early prediction, bears go back to back and possibly put 3 together. Could be wrong but those sophomores are very special

MA had 13 Seniors that were pretty good not like we were playing all soohmores. A coach that doesn't have discipline his self in a big game cannot teach it to his kids. Yes the talent is there and in two years time when MA doesn't win the big game it will be too late for these kids as they will be gone to graduation. Middle school and jvs really good but I'm going to say it played a week *** schedule. Adkins will not win a big game at MA.
