Only 7 play football...that would make 6 conference games and 4 or 5 non conference games depending on how they handle the overall football schedule this upcoming alignment.

I don't believe far fetched at all.
Great work either way but let's be honest. If Shelby doesn't petition to move up and I have not heard they are, they have a pretty clear path every year. I just don't see anyone consistently giving them a hard time in the playoffs. The big question is, with Reidsville moving up will Shelby come up and join. 2-3 students away from 4A.

We know the answer to that question. If they would they would have. They see what you see.

ER will be better , but can they consistently contend with Shelby will be the question
Coach Russ has that team on a great trajectory

These charter schools need to group up and play each other...just like private schools should.
If you don't have/offer all the normal sports like the public schools have traditionally offered AND/OR they charge you money to go to the school = play in your own league.

Heard some rumblings this afternoon that there is a HC opening at a Gaston Co. HS today. Shouldn't be a surprise but I'll wait for someone else to officially announce it.

I’ve seen two different 6A conferences for KM and one 5A/6A split.
1. KM, Ashbrook, St Stephen’s, Freedom, South Caldwell, and Alexander Central
2. KM, Ashbrook, Charlotte Catholic, Harding, Sun Valley, Central Cabarrus, and Olympic (CMS wants to keep all of their 6A schools together so we will see) *no Berry Academy
3. 6A KM, Ashbrook 5A SP, Crest, NG, Cramer, FV, and Huss (Gaston County pushing for this conference)
I think Cramer is 4a?

It will eventually come out. Not sure what the delay is. Embarrassed is my guess.
Surely there is embarrassment. To be so bamboozled and sold as a college recruiting coordinator and the goal being to get kid’s seen and into college, the guy didn’t know how to load the roster properly or include any player’s statistics in maxpreps. 🙄

Maybe the guy wasn’t the first choice??? Maybe it got turned down. Sometimes that happens. And then the second choice figures out he wasn’t the first choice. So he turned it down and it just kinda spirals from there

Probably true but I tend to believe there are deeper rooted issues. There is a common theme.

Word is the new coach is already at the school but not involved with current football operations.

Will make you a powerhouse. Get the plays in timely without killing your QB and know when to run it and throw it.

Just give him a stipend once in -a-while and don't mind the smell of paint and you're on your way

I'd be pleased from a Burns perspective. Although, it couldn't be worse than it has been the past 4 years for us.
