ouch. TruthWhy didn't Barnes win a state championship in South Carolina since he such a great coach.
BEST teams ever at SP in 2017??? LOL - no, no. Not even close. The previous two years kids (senior classes) won A LOT at every level and were dripping with talent. The 2017 seniors were along for the ride. A lot of hype around 17 SP team....and they were a good team, but nothing close to best ever in Belmont.We beat South Point in 17 when you had one of your best teams ever. Then in 18 and 19 we killed South Point and you won in the Covid year when we played in the spring. A season we didn’t even play Crest. No way South Points beats Shelby in 21. I don’t have a clue what your talking about.
Go here and try not to come back.BEST teams ever at SP in 2017??? LOL - no, no. Not even close. The previous two years kids (senior classes) won A LOT at every level and were dripping with talent.

I was at a Christmas party a few years ago and a now former SP coach was there. Great guy. He told me I would never in a million years believe what one of the drills was to find out whether a lineman had potential for the Red Bone. He said the rope drill coarse. I busted out laughing and said there is no way. He said they would get every lineman to run through and they based potential off 2 different criteria.BEST teams ever at SP in 2017??? LOL - no, no.

You absolutely did kill SP in 18-19.. during that time when I said "we weren't very good". Nobody denies that. Outgoing HCs don't leave when the cupboard is REALLY full. Again, proving my point about 2017. ML knew most of the talent had just left the building.
God bless yall. I thought that was tough for both teams. I can only assume we didn't see their best (either side)....because that's certainly not the conditions they are made to practice in these days. It's gotta be 75 degrees with no thunder within 200 miles to practice football I believe it the new rule.Here we go again. I can only pray the AD at Crest stays out of it. Otherwise we'll be rotting in the heat on Saturday @ 1pm again.

I remember that game and every one of you said the referees caused yall to lose.View attachment 1406333
Took some searching but I found a pic from the last time Shelby beat Crest. Crazy how much the game and technology has changed since.
Heck dude. I was only worried about myself. It was hotter than you in a Crest shirt sitting over there.God bless yall. I thought that was tough for both teams.

I don’t know if the game would have went this way or that way the night before but I do know my scalp can’t take that again. I got a hair cut, saw clouds and left the hat at home. My own fault. At one point I think I questioned if I even like football.Heck dude. I was only worried about myself. It was hotter than you in a Crest shirt sitting over there.
Me too. I won’t do that again most likelyI don’t know if the game would have went this way or that way the night before but I do know my scalp can’t take that again. I got a hair cut, saw clouds and left the hat at home. My own fault. At one point I think I questioned if I even like football.![]()
