Final ADM Numbers 11/19 - 1A, 2A, 3A

Could be. That would leave.the Davidson County schools hanging. As two of the smallest 3A schools, I would think that a split 3A/4A wouldn’t be good for either of us other than perhaps to maintain some traditional rivals. But a seven team conference would allow at least three football games for that purpose. Guess we’ll know when we know.
I, as you, have no idea what will happen. Like I’ve said many times, the all Randolph conference has been great for both gates and limited travel costs. ER has been the only 1A football school in that conference and they have done pretty well these past four seasons. The only difference in a new conference would be the numbers at the front, few more 3As and a couple of 4s.
I would hate that for the Davidson county schools. Got a few friends at a couple of them.
But like you said, we just talking and really have no influence on what’s going to happen. Either way I will continue to read your posts because I believe we are like minded individuals.

Max Preps 2a rankings after 1st round

Dont let @alan4unc see this Cummings still aint on there.... LOL
They don't need to be there either. Not that team I saw the other night. We haven't been that good all year, which makes me think that Cummings wasn't great at all. We did whatever we wanted to do on offense and defense. I wonder if he was at the game Friday. Cause I'd love to know what their problem was. All they wanted to do was fight. I lost count of how meant of their players got ejected.

The Transfer Portal Problem

Open choice allows a small number of transfers from school to school but if they think it’s because of sports they can deny it.
The Lyceum and IB programs are an options but it is not easy to keep the standards needed to stay in those programs.
I think transfers due to academic reasons should be much easier to obtain if the school the student wants to go has the space. If a transfer is purely for athletic reasons, there needs to be a lot more scrutiny with that. Not a good life lesson to give to a kid if he/she wants to leave their current school because the team isn't great and they simply want to be on a winning program.

Forbush HFC vacancy

The spring of 2020 they went 6-1 (losing in first round) and in 2021, they beat North Surry in the first round . Before that it looks like 2004 was the last time they won a playoff game (but then lost in 2nd round).

Tried to do some digging so I may have missed a year but it looks like besides what is above, they won first round playoffs in 2003 & 1992, but lost in the second round each time. So it looks like they have only won a couple first round playoff games and never been past the second round.
Yeah, I figured their football program has never really done that much. So this is an uphill climb for any new coach. There is clearly talent in Yadkin Co. given Startmount's success. Not sure why Forbush can't be better in football.
