I personally won't classify the decent and thoughtful Murphy posters with those that choose the other path and wish some from both towns would think twice before posting hypocritical statements.

please do tell all these classless statements and accusations I've made about Robbinsville, you can't because it never happened. The one accusation was a fact, just because I mentioned the wrong number never changed that. I apologized for it, so get over it. I tried to be civil with you but you're clearly another one of the

that I was referring to. If you don't like what I or other Murphy posters have to say then GTFO of a thread that has nothing to do with Robbinsville.

knight of old came into a thread that had NOTHING to do with Robbinsville and started running his pie hole about recruiting and everything else. one thing you didn't find is anybody from Murphy jumping into any Robbinsville threads after they won their title and bad mouthing them, you found people congratulating them. Thanks to kinght of old, you and a couple other it's back to business as usual though. Too bad some of you ruin it for the Robbinsville posters that aren't clowns.

Let me get this straight....If I understand some of the above posts,no family should move to the Murphy school district with high school age kids that play football because Robbinsville doesn't like it ?
That is some strange logic.

Good Grief, Dogman 35, mbd, pollo, ncnole,

"This is why it is hard for ppl to respects robbinsville. You whine."


So you have lost respect for Robbinsville (town, school, team, coaches???) all because of two or three posters on a message board pi$$ you off. LMAO You people need to get out more ... There's a few more folks in Rville than the ones that post on the message boards.

I am pulling for yall so don't ruin it. Wait a second. That might be the reason for the jinx. Gal is pulling for the dawgs.

lol could be gal, you've got a good reason to be cheering for us though, at least you will be free of that obligation after next season my friend. perhaps 2016 will be injury free after all

Ill still be pulling for yall even after 2016. I always pull for the Bulldogs except what used to be the last game of the regular season.

When people bring up the P and J recruiting thing it shows that they know nothing about the construction business. P and J employees didn't move to Robbinsville, where the headquarters were located, unless they were an accountant, a surveyor, or a secretary ... that's was the only people in the office!!!!! Construction "workers" go where the frickin job sites are ... Georgia, Florida, etc. So let me be clear, P and J never recruited anybody to play for Rville except Andy Jordan, Eddie Phillips, and Teddy Phillips, sons and nephew.

Last year, when I had this same tired argument, I ask anyone to name anybody that ever play for Rville that moved to Rville because of P and J. Somebody threw out the name of Marty Reagan ... he actually moved to Robbinsville when he was in the third grade, and I think his dad may have worked at the furniture factory instead of P and J.

FACTS???

Does Murphy send kids to EC? No, they choose to go there on their own.

If the EC did not exist where would those kids go to school? Murphy, HD, Andrews, Hayesville, etc.

Would the kids that go to EC ever play football? Probably not

Since the EC does exist - Does having kids that would normally be attending other schools (Murphy, Andrews, HD, Hayesville), and who probably would never play football, help when ADMs are counted? Yes

Was the EC established because Gentry wanted to lower his ADM numbers? No, even though Gentry is adored, I don't think that he was able to bring the EC into being.

Is there anything that anybody can do about any of this? No - the EC is here to stay.

FOLKS, THIS IS NOT A GRIPE, WHINE, OR COMPLAINT - IT IS THE FACTS!!!!!

Robbinsville posters you need to deal with this FACT OF LIFE and move on.

Murphy posters just need to acknowledge that having the EC is somewhat beneficial to ADMs and move on.


I for one appreciated all of the SMC and WNC posters that came on here and congratulated us on the championship. This has been a great football season for the Knights and I am going to enjoy this one for a while. I think I may have to have surgery to remove this smile from my face.

Problem is we already have Cherokee and Swain on the schedule. I don't know if both are staying on or not. I know Swain is still interested- the distance isn't that great and both schools travel fairly well. The two games have been close with each team winning at the opponent's field. I know there has been some discussion about Robbinsville or Owen coming on to the schedule but nothing is finalized.

Too many SMC games will put us scrambling to fill holes in the JV schedule.


I do remember spanking Murphy in the late 70's a couple of years

What school are you from? Tuscola?

Hey while you're at it, why don't you go ahead and lump Swain into this big conspiracy as well! How many players from Cherokee have played for the devils lately?? Is Swain cheating too?? Should they have to count every student at Cherokee into their enrollment since a few Cherokee kids transferred to Swain? Should they have to count Robbinsville's enrollment too because McCoy transferred there from Robbinsville? This is hilarious coming from a Robbinsville fan. I've heard for my entire life that Robbinsville wrote the book on recruiting when Phillips and Jordan was in it's heyday in the 70s and early 80s. I always heard that if you worked for that company and you had a son, you moved to Robbinsville! Now I can't prove that and I don't know how much truth there is to it, but me saying it is no different than you throwing out baseless accusations about Murphy!

I have no gripe with Swain. They count their #'s and if they have a program that recruits on its own merit (without someone actually going out and trying to bring kids in), which it does than that is fine by me. They are good year in and year out I understand why someone would want to play for them. Like I said before, if the transfer is legit than what is there to complain about??? Don't compare Murphy to Swain. Swain has a hardworking classy quality program that draws kids in. I have to respect that.

Murphy I have no respect for. There program is drastically shallow on class and honesty. All of my accusations have validity and basis. You and everyone else in Murphy know it.

 

[FarWestNorthCarolinaSports]

Tag me Knights of old its my turn. tag me.

 

[Knight-of-old]

Tag...

 

[FarWestNorthCarolinaSports]

Who want a champion that tries to play in a easier class. Real Champs play the cards dealt.

 

[moped master]

Now we go out and recruit too? Dang. Next accusation will be that we will provide free housing for members of ISIS.

 

[FarWestNorthCarolinaSports]

Look at what Murphy did without an advantage. 2000 to 2009.

[FarWestNorthCarolinaSports]

LMAO.




I think Murphy folks painted that doggie to put some fire in them kids for next season. Something had to be done.

I remember someone painted our rock black and yeller a few years back. Oh, I bet that was Robbinsville also.

 

[FarWestNorthCarolinaSports]

Its not that bad of a thing. Kinda like stealing the other teams mascot.

 

[roadglide32]

Kinda hard to find a post about Murphy finding a game on the ''murphy needs a game thread''.

 

[FarWestNorthCarolinaSports]

I am still wanting to hear who has called so far.

Yes,3 SMC dates would create a problem for the JVS. I don't remember if the Cherokee series is a two or 4 year deal, but if it is a 2 and out, what better game to replace it with than Murphy for Tuscola if it could be worked out? Not a terrific travel, good gate, and SMC schools are always competitive and win their share even against 3a teams. (even though we have to hear them crow about something everybody already knows.) Pisgah played in my memory, Swain 4 times, and won 3 of them. Swain won the first one, 9-6 or something like that, PHS won in Shuler's Soph year, 31-7 then 31-27 on the hurricane Hugo weekend at Pisgah, and finally 28-21 at Swain. (I believe those scores are fairly close) Cant get much more competitive than that. Fabulous crowds at ALL those games either place. Someone on this thread said that Murphy or Swain should play Franklin and SM every year, and I would add Tuscola to that list as well. One or the other or both. Good for the communities. There should be no need for Murphy to travel out of state or Swain either to fill their schedule I don't think. It just fits. IMO Owen would also be a good fit. A team that Tuscola has rarely if ever played, with a fairly good crowd, and good teams, usually.

+1. The old SMC 2A teams, and Tuscola and Pisgah (and maybe Brevard too), should never have a problem filling out their non-conference schedules.

I sure hate to hear that dogtuff. Would have been a good solution. I would like to see THS end their series with East Rutherford. Nothing against that school or their fans, but it is (IMO) just not a good fit, and has very little rivalry capabilities or offer much help with the revenue side, no matter who wins.
