Football Cleveland County

[BurnsBulldog02]

You just threw out a straight up lie in the end of your comment. No assistant coaches have told you that lol. I know that for a fact. Everyone here will know you lied in a couple of weeks about an assistant telling you that. Definitely not this off-season lol. Wait a couple of weeks . There is a lot of good energy around the KM football program right now, players & coaches. Instead of worrying about KM’s coaches you need to be worrying about why your “all in” coaches can’t beat anyone in the county lol.
#GDTBAM

You know that for a fact? You have eyes and ears on every coach in the program? You are delusional. I am not the only person he has voiced his opinion to. The players are fired up but there are opinions that vary within the staff. I do not care if you believe me. I know what I was told along with at least one other person who is a coach at another school. If the coach is the lone man out with his opinion then that is on him but don't call someone a liar with your track record on here of getting called out for spewing total crap. After the Ashbrook coach came on here and cooked you we all had you figured out. Once again, I am a fan. I have nothing to worry about. Burns will be fine but you already know that.

 

[BurnsBulldog02]

That was that big lines senior year(98 championship game) with Kareem(Georgia) and Rico(UNC) manning the tackles and Andy Leigh and Juke Curry(probably strongest) on that line. Kareem put on clinics on what a pulling tackle should do at 6'7" and 375 getting down field 20 yards pancaking on plays. Would love for him to be back up here working with the linemen here and coming up.

I was younger than that group but man what a squad. The draw play at AL Brown with Bubba up the middle was what sealed the deal. That was a great game.

 

[Crest Charger 02]

That was a fun year in the county even if meant Crest going 6-6. Good games between all the teams.

First he wasn’t an Ashbrook coach but a former KM assistant coach thank you very much. I stated facts not opinions on what was happening at that time. Some former coaches were disgruntled and put some things out in the community that wasn’t fair to the current coach, program, and KM community. It’s all love now and we would welcome those guys back with open arms. Nothing but respect for those guys as coaches. They did some great things in KM. Just a little family feud.
I was also proven correct on what was happening with some of these CFI guys, some area coaches connected to them, and recruiting kids at those “camps”. There is some other things coming down on the Gaston County athletics side to GC coaches related directly to this.
Again you put some bs out here and it didn’t land like you thought. If you would have stated that happened the first year of Herron you would have been telling the truth. Some coaches had their own agenda. You stated this like someone told you this recently and I am calling b.s. on that. Again how you gonna trash a program that you cannot beat on the field? How you talking like your football future is brighter than ours? I’ve never trashed Burns because I respect Burns but in the words of Tupac, “I ain’t a killer but don’t push me”

Say the next line or you have no balls.

I could care less about what coaches did what and recruited what from Gaston County. I just knew that guy came on here throwing it all at you. I also know it would create a massive response when I mentioned it so your response was expected. Remember, I said I am bored.

The BS you mentioned is not BS at all and YES it was recent. Yes it did happen. I am not in that weight room or locker room to know how things really are so I will take your word for it. The conversation about difference of opinions on things absolutely happened. You don't know me on a personal level to know how I really feel about KM. You would laugh if you did. You still don't get how it works on here. You may somewhat but at times you take a step back. One thing I will not do is makeup a lie on here involving other coaches. If you knew my history, respect and thoughts about coaching you would full back off the liar comments. Your response only tells me one thing involving that staff and it is that there are people with more than one face. It will eventually reveal itself I am sure by how passionate the comments to me and another were. I will go back and forth with you this entire off season if you want but eventually we are going to run out of stuff. I think KM has a 6 game edge on Burns in the overall record. Our history is much like Crest and Shelby with the close rivalry. That is me being real and not just doing what we do here.

I have a question or three.

Why is Herron at KM? With his pedigree he should be able to coach in SC where they pay more.

Why did he leave SC?

Can he go back?

I know for a fact he put in for an open job not long ago. And before anyone says it. I DON’T LIE.

I think he’d leave tomorrow if the right opportunity comes along.

I'll take a stab at it..

1. I think he is at KM because he see the type of athletes in the entire area and with the continued growth, community support and resources, success can be had.
2. Makes more money at KM than he made at last school in SC... he maybe the highest paid non AD, coach in NC.
3. That I'm not sure, but I do know that the Gaffney committee did really consider him. So I would think he probably could.

Number 1. For sure.

he makes money I know but he could make it where he’s from.

it’s just odd. That’s all. Everything is hunky dory but he’s putting in for jobs. Lake Wylie wasn’t his only inquiry either. If you don’t believe me. I understand. However, I told SP fans Devine was leaving and I told Shelby fans Lance Ware was leaving before They knew. They scoffed at me. Then they both left.

I think Herron hates Brinkley. I can’t swear to it. Purely a hunch.

He is old school and probably not use to all the added influences.

Another reason for him getting out of SC was that SC high school league and coaches down there were totally against the school he was at and the unfair treatment was directed at all sports. I dont see him going to a small SC school because it wouldn't be an increase in pay and he wouldnt have the backing against the SC high school association.

I think with his pay, light work load, support and the student athletes he has access to, he is in a pretty good spot. He maybe entertaining other schools but dont see them matching all those boxes.

Chris Hughes Carolinapreps.com show Coach Herron last year at SP in 2018. First year at KM in 2023. Anyone know where he was in between those two?

He was at Shutdowns house learning how to properly run a program.

Legion Collegiate Academy..Rock Hill and it was a sports charter school...opened in 2019. Actually had kids moving from GA and driving from Columbia to come play sports at the school. Small sports they could dominate but not having a feeder middle school hurt football, along with the fact local schools wouldnt not play him.

That’s the business. Just like Barnes left Crest the first time.

I am sure multiple good coaches put in for the job. Why wouldn’t they if you stay close enough? It’s an attractive job that I am sure will have plenty of resources.

Just be happy you have an alum coaching your school.

Or at your goat farm trying to teach you to come out of the 19th century at least. I guess I plucked a nerve or two…

Was told by a reliable source down there they had a lot of great candidates put in for it. He just told me Herron and the Hickory coach were 2 of the many.

If you are a nearby coach with a proven track record why not apply? You can use it as leverage to up or own pay or get a few things if you do not leave. Coach Lloyd was notorious for applying for every decent opening that came through in his coaching career. Coach Glass from Hickory is similar. Coach Barnes also has applied for jobs while at good programs. I can remember Coach Taylor from Shelby applying for the KM job one year because he wanted to see how much it was paying. It’s what the coaching business is. When you have a proven track record you want to see what you are worth on the market. You can’t take that too personal.

Well I will not say the second verse on a public message board lol. Maybe lie or liar was too harsh for a message board. I call nonsense on the off season but there was definitely some things during the season that reared its head. I don’t want to speak out of turn so I will wait until some of the things I am referencing are finalized. There have been a lot of positive changes this off season in KM already with more to come. BB02 you are alright with me but I will fire back at any non Mountaineers throwing unprovoked rocks at my school and team. KM hear rumors, gossip, and other things about our fellow CC programs also but for the most part KM posters don’t rush to a message board to put messy stuff out for a laugh or to make another program look bad. One example is the Sosebee situation at Crest. I heard about that situation weeks prior to it making it to these boards. There are a ton of things that make for good entertainment that are best left to the home team to post first.

Just got our football calendar sent out and it says Cramer scrimmages KM during the jamboree this year. I know a few posters who will be excited Cramer is finally lining up against a “real” CC team instead of the pretenders in their conference.

 

[crestrulz]

Not the same dude.

Herron was already down there. He came up here. That’s different.

The point was that it looks like he wants to go back. That’s a chink in the armor my man. No matter how it’s sliced.

I heard he was looking to even be an assistant at one big time school. I can’t swear to that though. But Futch Dork if I didn’t hear it.

Cleveland County Dog. It ain’t for everybody.

I haven’t heard that yet. Which jamboree is this?

I’m assuming the Gaston County Jamboree

I thought they already had a coach...there are assistant coaches at Clover already telling certain players to come with them to the new school. I guess they must already plan on transferring jobs and figure they will be assistant coaches to whomever they hire then.

They hired Nick Pellem from White Knoll in SC. Not sure about that. I got the info on the guys who interviewed from a Clover guy. I know the first year they don’t have senior class at the school. Will definitely have to take their lumps for a few years.

Yes they did hire the White Knoll coach about a week or so before Christmas. I haven’t really heard too much more after the hire.

Ok. Some coaches must already have taken positions to teach at the new school when the school year starts.
