Who would have even been talking about this being a competitive game two years ago. I think Rye Cove is one of the most fundamentally coached teams around. Coach Norris and Coach Salyers were both excellent head coaches. Now they are assistants on the same team. Wow!

Especially if Coach Colley is doing color commentary.

What about New HS with River as the mascot?  Get real Bland with it.  No offense to Bland HS.

If they played at Ragsdale Field, the team could enter by riding a Grinch sleigh off that mountain.
 

Tulane has some decent looking uniforms at times with that combo.

It’s 1A football and who’s healthiest come November will be the first key to moving forward. 

I cant wait until I am one of them.

A couple just like em in every operating Hardees before every sun up, I'm afraid 🤣

I caught my error on TW.  Had the wrong number assigned for Lee.

Folks, I have the pleasure of being around a few athletics programs due to my profession and I see an alarming trend going on locally in the aspect of discipline. 
Programs that used to have depth and stability no longer have that and are grasping at straws in regard to talent. 
If you hold some of these young men accountable, they will leave the program and never return. Sometimes that will snowball to other players leaving, "Come on man, we don't have to put up with this."
With the lack of numbers, I see coaches afraid to be tough to make players better men because they are scared that their numbers will dwindle or at worst their parents will go and cry to an administrator who will back the parent regardless of the situation just to please. 
It's not what it used to be and let's not be too fast to blame the kids because a lot of this starts at home.
Just my observation...
 

Hubris among high school coaches these days is something to behold. Or at least, that's been my experience in the dealings I've had with them. Almost unanimously, they can't understand why kids, parents, administrators don't have the same burning passion for their sport they do. And should a kid have a "first love" other than the sport that coach wants them to have a burning passion for, that hubris leds the coaches to try to force the issue. Which in turn, drives the kid away from that coach and his hubris. 
I've told this story before but it's worth telling again. The basketball coach at Galax wanted a good friend of mine to talk his son into quitting golf to play travel basketball all summer. This kid is not your dads golfer. He's 6'-3" and weighs close to 200 pounds. He can stand flat-footed under the basket and two-hand dunk a basketball. But his passion since he was in diapers is golf. He is literally at Blue Ridge Country Club until dark every day. He's the #7 ranked junior in Virginia, has won several junior tournaments across North Carolina and Virginia, and is the reigning VHSL Class 1 state champion. This coach began pressuring the kid since the dad wouldn't do his bidding for him. So the kid finally told the coach, "I'm here to stay active when it's too cold to play golf."
Still, the hubris of the coach still wouldn't allow him to understand why anyone would choose golf over basketball so he persisted in harrassing this kid. So the dad ripped the coach a new asshole, in the middle of the gym after a game, in front of the stands full of parents and fans, and told him to never speak to his son again about the subject. 

Lee should be able to beat the 16 on the field against them in this one.

Got to see the Crig tonight. Had been a while since we had gotten to speak. Unfortunately it looks like we finally found something to stump the Crig: How to upload Season 6 to YouTube
