I don't know Coach McKee and I am not trying to start anything, but what was he doing well at North Meck? I know North Meck is a tough job, but I am not sure he had a winning season there.
Record isn’t everything and also North has talent rn so and McKee did better then most at North Meck and it was a respectable record 17-21 (11-15) and he did have a winning record in 2021
Records goes as followed
2020 - 1-6 (1-6)
21- 6-4 (4-2)
22- 5-5 (2-4)
23- 5-6 (4-3)
Had 2 playoff appearances as well.
North Meck has some really good talent too. Remember they are in a very tough conference with Hough, MC, Chambers and WC. They have some great under class talent in Shelton, House, and Tate. They ve already lost some players. The portal is open
A lot of people say that, but it has been a long slumber for North Meck. I think it would be a good job if they didn't have large enrollment numbers from the IB program that don't play football. They could probably do well in 3A.
I have to see where they would be in the proposed realignment but I agree. With the right guy in there long term, they can have some success - even being against the monsters because who knows how long some of those guys will be on top in Charlotte
Yeah he went to Weddington the new destination school. They lost some others too. They were really building something special. They have a few more BIG time players that may be on the move.....
They had something like 15+ sophomore/freshman starters this past season. They were set up to be really good I feel.
Hard to compete in football when you’re in such close proximity to Hough, Creek and Chambers. All are within a 10-15 min drive from North and those programs speak for themselves. North Meck will probably always be a basketball school unless big time football coach comes in.
If Trip Stone is not selected as the new coach at Butler North Meck should go all in on him.
True, but I’d go after Donald Littlejohn. He’s won championships at Creek and was dealt to run Chambers offense in 2022. He’s still working at Chambers last I checked so that cuts his commute down, tremendously. I’m taking a very wild guess that he gets the Butler job though, which goes back to your original statement about Stone.
Correct. He was still teaching Health and PE at Chambers and coaching at Butler. He loves Chambers and the kids there love him. He’s gonna do great things wherever he ends up.
North Meck had announced on their FB page that they have hired Daryl Vereen as their next HC. He is a 2007 graduate of North Meck.
Back in the early 2000s, before Hough and Creek, North Meck had numbers but didn’t really put it all together. Chambers success has been relatively recent, the last 4-7 years. Back in the 2000s Chambers was average so I figured North Meck would be better than they were. It’s shocking the Hough and Creek would open and be much better football schools.
North Meck gets talent, they just need the right mix of things to bring it all together. I'm glad Vereen will get his chance, he has worked his way up the old school way and as an alum I'm sure he will put in a full effort to try and get things to the next level.
