No nothing, and with playoffs here, think this will delay any potential candidates openly being considered until playoffs are over. I have a gut feeling on whom I think could be offered, but will see if it comes to fruition.
It has been a season of watching those who we expected to win, and those who we hoped would win. I have a half full glass today, happy for the Loris Lions as they play their first playoff game tonight against the Beaufort Eagles, and a sadness seeing my big Blue Tornado probably go 0-10 tonight. I heard a Christian artist say this last night and it was regarding a song she had written years ago. She was telling the background as to why she had written this song. In its lyric she said she had been through the "burning dessert, but looking ahead saw clear blue water and had come to far to turn back now." She said if we surrender, who do we surrender to and what do we surrender? As she spoke this I naturally thought about my Christian walk; this morning, in contemplation as well, how it can relate to the Blues and their program. We should never let a season, define our legacy, or detain/cease our walk. The trees lose their leaves in the fall, so we see what appears to be a lifeless tree, but it is only a dormant stage. When spring appears, the tree begins to blossom with life again. This is my hope and prayer for the Blues football program. There are deep roots and good soil, hopefully these roots will be inundated with the water of hope, and be cultivated by those who don't deny the setback of the program, but wait for spring and new life.
Amen!!!

Big shout out of appreciation. You've given this old high school football junkie another great season. To the hand full of you I actually know, and the hundreds of you I've got to watch this year, Thank you. Although this probably wasn't the championship season you had hoped for, these will still be remembered as some of the best times of your life. Your dedication and hard work is truly admired. Play with Pride tonight, and give it all you got, 1 more time.
41-0 is the final from Loris and to cap it off, Loris has a backup kicker who is Spanish Speaking and a Female, and she nailed the final extra point for Loris.
Google Loris Lions Radio and you can hear Greg Mance in the post-game probably 2-3 minutes from the time this post is posted.
Glad you got to see Loris at their finest.
Hopefully will be a similar game next week Aynor
Go on the field and speak with Coach. I know he would be pleased.
Not following the game really close on camera, mainly ears glued to Loris game. RC does have size on Warriors. They have held RC in check for the 3rd qtr. RC is mainly moving the ball in large chunks.
I will be doing opposite of you. Wife and I are in Grand Strand for the week and we're going to Loris tonight to watch the Lions and Manning, and will be watching the Spartans on NFHS on phone. I just hope Tazewell got the game moved/set up appropriately on NFHS with the schedule change so I can watch it. When games get moved from original dates, the ADs sometimes forget to make the adjustment on NFHS and it's not watchable. The Giles/Tazewell game is listed on NFHS for tonight, so that's a good sign.
Awesome!!!
Sure Coach Mance will be glad to know there are some Giles fans in attendance!!
Where to start? I'm sadden to see the Blues season with no wins. I think the 2nd half at Tazewell broke their spirit. The season with Virginia High shows the Cats with improvement, but still work to do. The Blues team needs to prove they aren't cellar material. They need to dig deep within themselves and come away with a win Friday. It won't be an easy task. Task calls for a deep down effort, beyond what has transpired this season, and a reckoning of will to walk away with the win Friday night.
This is what our nation was built on...valor, sacrifice and honor. Anything else is inferior and cannot withstand the storms that come.
A great read. I love history. It is the DNA of our nation. Some of its genes have grown in establishing this nation and its leadership to what a united people can be and do. Correcting injustice, giving of self so others can be free. Freedom is never seized; it's giving of one's self unconditionally. This story reflects this virtue. It calls the mediocre to be valiant, strive beyond your own goals and rest in the goodness of effort.
