Havelock vs Charlotte Catholic
- Thread starter ItsJustWords252
- Start date
Havelock appeared to me more talented just sorely out coached and undisciplined.
Feel for the Havelock QB. Too many badly overthrown downfield passes to open receivers
Can we not do the open enrollment crap no one cares havelock had the team to compete we not gonna do that congratulations to Catholic they played well and it was exciting to watch both defenses
Good question, was thinking the same thing, hope someone who knows will post the answer.
Technically yes and no. But honestly it doesn't matter. I don't even think they have a player going D1 on their team. That's just an excuse at this point. This same CC team lost to Weddington and damn near lost to Crest. They're beatable, but you have to play mistake free ball because Catholic sure is.
I’m not saying anything about excuses. Your talent pool is not pulled from multiple districts. Let the privates play privates.
the best should play the best havelock has the talent to compete no matter what so I’d rather beat cathlotic than had played any other team we probably would have beat by 28+
That's a trademark of championship caliber teams. Look at Reidsville. You make mistakes they make you pay. For all the mistakes tonight Havelock did not give in and give up multiple scores. Great game by 2 great programs. I hate it for @Ramfan75 .
I tried to tell you and easy that this group was hard to score on. But so many of you proclaimed that our kids would not want to tackle Edmunds and we have never faced a more explosive team. Neither of those statements were accurate.
I expected a good game and thought if it was close, advantage to us. I know you can only play who is on your schedule but over the years the completion catholic plays is so much more difficult. That makes a difference. I was not surprised that we could not consistently move the ball as we are really young upfront. We lost one go our backs in the ACR game who is a big difference maker and lost our senior leaders when Neel could not play. 33 was on the JV team until the playoffs. But that is not to take anything away from Havelock as they were the best defense we faced all year, however they were not the best offense.
If havelock had won, you wouldn’t be whining.
Exactly any other team would have made all them mistakes against Catholic they would have beat their Brains in I think havelock played a great game outside of all the mistake I think you take all them bad snaps and late hits away it could have been different or it still could have ended 14-7 who knows they both played some the best defense I’ve seen all year specially on two of the best running backs in the state
Catholic and Cardinal Gibbons follow strict set of rules from the NCHSAA. If Forsyth County can play then these two teams can.
I believe they were the best offense y’all played bad snaps killed momentum on a lot of drives but Ill let you have that statement
Well it did not take long for a knuckledragger to pop up. Do you think we could recruits some kids out California like Myers Park. We know recruiting and getting transfers absolutely helps teams and these seems common place with so many schools. Your open enrollment argument actually has no merit.. Sounds good to you I suppose but then again you probably have not given that a lot of thought.
They do have a de facto boundary of religion and tuition. If you are not Catholic you pay higher tuition and there are no scholarships.
Good god could you be any drunker on the kool aid?!!! You’re argument is they hardly have any D1 kids??? They have a endless influx of really smart, without academic challenged kids. Most PUBLIC schools design their football teams around 4 or 5 stud athletes. It’s not an even playing field.

I appreciate the good comments but most of teams we played don't make so many mistakes like that. So you were certainly not the best offense we played, but I thought you guys were lights out on defense. I also was impressed how well you kept our DE from being disruptive. You LT did a great job.
You live on my side of the tracks, you see a different world.. keep drinking the bleach
Yeah congratulations on the win maybe later down the road if they change the rules back we can meet again good luck in 4a
And who ever that freshmen running back you guys have has some f**k*** wheels on him
I thought he was gone on that one run and you guys quarterback is really good it sucks y’all going to 4a I’d like to see havelock Qb and him battle it out a few more times if we was both able to get back I don’t see you guys really having any issues in 4a with the way you guys can pass it really impressed meAnd all honestly I think the bad snaps came from nerves because they haven’t done that all season and being down in a game against a team like Catholic probably was really nervous
You keep spouting the hate.. you argument about open enrollment demonstrates an ignorance in knowledge about how students are enrolled. When did larger areas to draw students begin to equate an advantage in athletics. You keep convincing yourself with bogus thoughts and then blame on a perspective from the other side of the tracks. No offense my friend but you are like 0-3. .
I will not edit anymore of your post, next will be a vacation for you.
Do you hear yourself? When did drawing from a larger population = better athletes? Why do you think we have high school classifications?
it just words,
33 does have some wheels, we lost another young kid with wheels before the regional finals. The two of them are in our offense combined with our Big fullback and an more mature OL will be pretty nice. The end that caught those balls is a freshman as well. We have a lot of young talented kids. We are going to be a lot better on O but the seniors on the D were pretty special. I will say this again your interior D line play was awesome. Any of those guys underclassman.

Again you are showing a lack of critical analysis. What is the percent of of Catholics in the state of NC.. since Catholics make up more than 90% of the student body and Catholics may be 5% of the population, how much bigger of any area would you need to fill out out your enrollment. I know this is simple math to most people...but you have to actually ask yourself to think critically first. Nothing better than someone being 100% certain of something they know so little about. I think you just went to 0-4.
havelock was mainly seniors outside of a couple sophomores but mainly senior heavy
Well I hope you have enough to smack Jacksonville around next years.
theirs a couple starting juniors and sophomore coming back but I’m pretty confident we will be ok next year and the year after I think 2 of our d line men are juniors and one of our line backers is a junior as well
OK Blackhawk. If intelligence were the key determinate in the outcome of a football game, Harvard, Yale and MIT would be 1, 2, 3 every year in the collegiate polls. That hasn't happened. It helps but no coach is going to trade a 6'3" 235 lb. elite athlete for a 5'7" 160 lb. skinny armed egg head with a 4.0 grade point average. Catholic coaches included.
And I hope the kid you guys lost is ok and hopefully able to return back in the fall honestly if I end up staying in the Charlotte area and have a son I’d more than likely pay to have him go to Charlotte Catholic one the best and definitely the most discipline programs in the state
Yeah but I was holding my breath every time they got the ball. Speed all over the field.
Well, all collegiate teams mentioned don’t offer football scholarship’s or play substantial competition to be considered for national rankings. Where did the 6’3 sophomore starting TE at Catholic who caught the Hail Mary to beat Cuthbertson come from? I’m sure he lives next door....
Congrats to both teams. Great game from two teams that definitely belonged there.
get your story straight Blackhawk. He is a freshman. Most of our kids from the parochial schools in Charlotte. 0-5
