With Lincoln County no longer having a legion team, Cherryville Post 100 has changed its base school to Lincolnton High School. That means they can recruit players from the following high schools: Cherryville, West Lincoln, Lincolnton, North Lincoln, and Maiden. All Post 100 home games will still be played at Fraley Field in Cherryville.

Does that remove them from getting kids from Burns? I know in the past some Burns kids have been with Cherryville and some with Shelby.

I am directly referring to head coaches meeting with families that attend other CMS schools. If you are ok with that, you would be part of the problem. A snitch line is supposed to solve these problems? Please. That is CYA and nothing more.
Again, the county AD came in threatening jobs and whatever else she could. Yet this is still happening. But, like you said, they are doing a good job.

You're absolutely right: without consistent enforcement or a major shift in policy like truly embracing open enrollment or strictly following the one-time transfer rule, it'll stay business as usual. Everyone knows the game, and as long as there's no real accountability, schools (and families) will keep finding creative ways to get where they want to be. Some play it quiet, others don’t even try to hide it. I just don't see it changing anytime soon.

Sir, with due respect, you don't have the first clue what I care and don't care about. You get to see my opinions on NC HS FB, and topics related to it. This does not sum up my entire life.

SMH, not you personally. People in general don't care about transfers or children changing schools just for football and basketball mainly. Thats what im saying. I should all to me.

In Area IV, Wilkes is new.

In Area III, Matthews is back. I believe they've been in and out over the years. Union and Queen City moved from Area IV. And I believe Mt. Airy is new.

Mt. Airy has had a team for several years now. Not sure they has finished a year yet though. Wilkes comes and goes like the weather. Has been in Area III.

I am guessing on the academic, band, cheer, and Science Olympiad message boards that convo is happening. IDK, I haven't checked on those in a while. I thought this was a board about NC HS football.

Exactly. You don know or care. Just football. CMS nor any school system cant put undue resources on one issue and not potentially others.

Exactly. IMHO MC would have had more ships if they hadn't gone the transfer QB route. Indy lost their streak with a transfer QB, and transfer RB on one of their best teams in 07. Chambers dominated with home grown and some transfers, but they didn't get a ship with a transfer QB. Grimsley dominates with transfers and wins ships, Hough gets transfers and doesn't win ships. You are 100% correct there is no set formula. But one thing is certain. Most ship teams are largely based on 4 year guys and guys that have been at the school since 9th grade.

-Now lets talk band, academic, cheer, science Olympiad transfers. We should have the same energy on those too. But they wont mention those.

Every program in Charlotte gets new guys. Some get more than others. Some are scrutinized more than others. I have yet to see one win a bunch of Championships because of new guys. That formula is not as successful, as some believe. Charlotte should go to open enrollment or the one time transfer, and keep it moving.

They are not turning a blind eye. They already have a snitch line, verify addresses starting with 9th grade, have an academic/athletic monitor. If a child makes a legal move what are they supposed to do? EVERY CMS school gets transfers in some type of way. What are the teams to do turn them around? Trainers/fans/parents do more recruiting than anything. How do we police that? Instead of saying blind eye make suggestions. Thats why SC went to one free as there are so many exceptions and too hard to police.

So turning a blind eye to it = done well? I'm assuming the school you pull for is getting transfers in?

Well I heard the middle school team didn’t allow a single point scored on them this past season. Idk if we’re still 1-2 years away from those kids playing but if true that’s impressive.

Zaire Strickland incoming freshman will be one to watch out for. Wouldn’t be surprised if he goes straight to varsity. Anyone who’s followed Sampson County Football for awhile will remember his dad. Wayne Strickland played for Hobbton early 2000’s……..the apple didn’t fall far from the tree. The kid is legit.
