Well, I have changed my mind about this team since the Jacksonville game. I thought then that it would take 10 years in order to win another state title, I think now in 5 years with the right players we will be players again. The sophmore class is really coming along Jacoby Johnson is a horse at RB, but unfortunately he is banging Varsity players while he should be running all over JV teams. The rest of this season is still rocky, and honestly 4 wins is all I could put money on at this point. N Lenoir we should win and against Dixon we should win. I will say this if we come together a little more, we could beat Croatan and N Brunswick and that would mean a lot to me.

Dempsey seems to call a really good game. I think fundamentally we are a stronger team under Dempsey. With a lot of players not playing this year Dempsey is coaching a very young team. I will put it this way if this group stays together we will be as good as E Duplin this year next year, and I can take that from a 2nd year coach.

Stallion faithful is hanging in there, we have seen enough greatness out of teams we can appreciate it takes time to build a winner.

I told you guys after the Clinton loss that SWO was not as bad a some people thought. I feel quite certain that the Stallions and the DarkHorses will meet again in the playoffs

We are a mistake here and a mental lapse there from being a team that could finish 7-4 this year. This team is young, but has potential, but has to play more mistake free to beat the better teams.

Coach Dempsey and the Stallion staff are doing a great job with the team that Padgett chose to abandon ship on. LOL

I'll have to see a little more though. They beat a Jones Sr team that lost by almost 40 to Riverside Martin?? Not sure yet.

I agree footballguru, beating up on Jones Sr means nothing. I actually was more impressed with the fight they showed against Clinton.

White Oak game next week should be a good one to see how far we have come! That would be a strong win if we can get it.
