How did the big guy for Reynolds do? He is one of the few bigs that can match up with ours.

I don’t think Penn State is a great fit. Baker has a ton of upside and Penn State doesn’t do a great job with Quarterbacks. Now they do well with quite a few defensive positions, linemen and at running back but I wouldn’t go to Penn State If I were a Quarterback.
The only real benefit of choosing UNC is proximity and potentially playing early because of the rebuild.
LSU is actually his best option out of the three. Pretty proven system that develops Quarterbacks. He will have skill guys around him and pretty good offensive line.
I don’t want to see Bryce not reach his full potential at Penn State. I hope he makes the best decision for him though.

My Prediction Grimsley 35 Hough 21... setting up the showdown in the Triad between East Forsyth(my other prediction) and Grimsley.

10 ran for over 1000 last year. They don’t seem to be using him as much this year. He’s only got 54 carries. Big #5 has 257 carries

They would actually beat Weddington AND Catholick some years when they were in that conference. Check the records. This is why the expectations of them were so high because of the conference they came from and the previous titles they won during Shelby's run.

It is funny you would say this, because I never come on here and just randomly post anything without having some background knowledge. I was pretty sure Monroe was O'fer against Catholic and Weddington in their last conference realignment, but because I have access to internet and little free time I went back and checked again and lo and behold I was right. So I will take the liberty of breaking this down by year

2017: The first year of the new realignment before the current one- Monroe was 5-7 with 2 conference wins against Piedmont and Parkwood who are garbage. Catholic beat them 49-6 and Weddington 34-0

2018: Monroe was 7-6 with 3 conference wins Marvin Ridge Piedmont and Parkwood again who are garbage. Catholic beat them 21-14 the first time and then 42-0 the second time in the second round of the playoffs. Weddington beat them 42-0

2019: Monroe was 6-6 with 3 conference wins Sun Valley, Cuthbertson and Piedmont (didn't manage to beat Parkwood this year) The also lost to Catholic 41-10 and Weddington 45-13

2020 Spring Season: Monroe was 7-3 and lost to Catholic 27-0 the first time and 24-14 the second time in the playoffs. Weddington beat them 45-14 as well.

So if you're keeping count in a 4 year span in their 3A conference Monroe was 0-6 against Catholic and 0-4 against Weddington. Catholic outscored them 204-44 in that span and shut them out twice. Weddington outscored them 166-27 and shut them out twice as well. I think it is safe to say Monroe was dominated by those two teams.

If they were such great games between them and they beat them sometimes (which they obviously did not) then why didn't they schedule them as non-conference opponents the last 4 years? I mean they are in the same county and it would have saved them money on bus fair.

Now in your defense From 2013-2014 Monroe played Weddington in non-conference and split with them 2-2 over that four year stretch. So since 2013 Monroe is 2-6 against Weddington and 0-6 against Catholic.

I always talk football weirdo. NE is not top 30 in the state in anything. Haven't won the big game ever. Qb looks slow and his 5'6 wrs look like middle school kids. Smash mouth football is coming to town. NE will get hit in the mouth early and othen. JK front 7 is serious. Hopefully that is enough football talk for you.

Your dumb for taking the post out of context of what I said.. I said nothing about soccer and nothing about racism.. I spoke facts about Monroe’s population.. Bro your team is at home and can’t beat Monroe. Out of the 3 Hispanics on the football team one of them is one of the best players on the team and the state runner up in wrestling.. But imma end this conversation with yo dumb ass cause I see you really hate Monroe cause we play 2A and 3A ball.. Maiden or who ever your team is Suck Monkey nuts and will never be able to compete with the Roe!!! SUCKA!!! This is a Monroe Shelby Thread so your opinion is really irrelevant…lol To all my Shelby fans I hope both teams put on a show so these fans teams that’s not playing can kick rocks and see why their team is at home watching.. CLOWNS

Oh ruffled some feathers I see, this should be fun then. That is the great thing about being unaffiliated I could actually care less about who wins and who loses. I'm just here to talk ball and weigh in on topics of interest. So believe me when I tell you your insults fall on deaf ears because I don't have a team sitting at home right now and even if I did it wouldn't matter because I would not get my emotions wrapped up in HS teenagers winning and losing football games.

Now I never said anything about racism and your first post inherently brought race into the conversation by explicitly saying how many Hispanic kids Monroe had in the school. Since you can't come up with a better argument about what my post said you resorted to name calling and cursing which let me know your intellect level probably is not that high, but given your handle of Monroe 1998 I can see why. I don't actually have any hate for Monroe, if I had any hate at all it would be for the ignorant system and realignment that put 3A teams across the state in some instances playing 2A ball and also forced some 1A and 2A and 3A teams to play up a class without ADM's to actually justify them being moved up. If you have a brain stem the functions you could go back and see that I have actually talked very favorably about Monroe in many posts this year, but facts are often lost on the ignorant.

If I used words or phrasing in there you understand please feel free to have someone read it to you and break it down for you.

Not with the transfer portal. Teams can become contenders/above average quickly and vice versa. Look at TCU a few years ago, Indiana this year, Colorado etc. No doubt PSU is a fit for him and an elite program, though. If he does go there, hope they can get some skill guys to help him.

^^I also, have seen both teams play at the beginning of the season, middle, and end. 2 State Championship programs. Weddington is a great team but like any team out there…hey guys…sorry to tell ya, they have flaws. Pretty good defense, disruptive front 4! Nasty, Fast & Physical! Defensive backs on Weddington are by far the weakest group on the field. Can easily be attacked all night through the air by quick game. EF offensively, this group will be the best if not, one of the best offenses Weddington has seen all season & vice versa. Bryce Baker is a well oiled machine but he CANNOT give points to the defense like he has the past 2 weeks. Weddington’s offense is average at best. Very Surprised their QB only has 1 D2 offer as a senior on a team like that with that much exposure. 6’5, proven state champion, shows control over the offense. It’s mind boggling but I’m sure they will roll in once the season ends in a few weeks. I Truly don’t believe they have a player that can single handedly take over this game on offense. But EF’s defense has been if not, historically bad this year. Eager to see Weddington’s receivers vs EF db’s. Ef’s defensive backs are the weakest group on that unit but the defense as a whole tends to have that “keep bending, we’re almost about to break” mentality lol. EF’s offense will keep them in this game. Simple. They have to! there is no other choice lol. EF will have to make this a shootout. I can’t stress this enough, East must get their 3-star WR #11 going early unlike past weeks. Playcalling will be very interesting to see. Throughout the game he seems to disappear, don’t understand it. Unlike some people on here like I said earlier, I have seen both teams play multiple games throughout the season. EF has a chance, this is why we play the game. Weddington must get east out of the way quick, jump on them and take their heart. Go for the Kill early coach! Something that Mooresville failed to do. If this EF team goes on the road 2 hours away in 28 degree weather & linger around throughout the 3rd or 4th I truly believe East will win in a close one. I have it 38-33 whoever wins.

When you have ice in your veins you tend to just adapt and keep going. I really didn't think it had an impact on either team honestly. Both were very physical. Decisions decided that game last week.

We've all been saying the same thing about throwing home run balls on every play. Hit the short stuff and let the receivers runs, they all can fly.

Click to expand...

Sometimes it only takes one move or one missed tackle and it's all grass ahead. I believe one of the first TD's Shelby scored on us this year was a one man to beat situation. We missed the tackle and nobody was there except the goal post 20 yards later. Both teams have players that can make things happen in open space. It does not have to be a 50/50 ball every time because neither team is leaving someone in the dust.
