Next head football coach at Montgomery Central

N
Hopefully MC gets the hire right but knowing the county reputation it's likely going to be the same. The County should have never let Eddins and Hammer leave the county after the 2016 seasons. Offer them whatever they wanted to stay. This falls on the MCS being a cluster. Benji Brown did an admirable job starting the program and I dare say had more success when you look at the strength of opponents. Hopefully the next coach can recruit the hallways, help keep the kids active and off the streets and bring back some of the community assistants that were ran off wrongfully.

Beam was the head coach at North a few years. Think his last season there was 2008. Burns then Newton Conover. Good guy. He has a heavier pass scheme than Bazzel and North’s not been known for high flying burn you out of your shoes wide receivers, so we’ll see what the approach will be with what he has to work with if he’s coaching. Good blast from the past and welcome back thing for him and the school

Maybe true at the state level but come on you have to admit what we had as President and Kamala was a shit show. It was so bad that America voted for a man with felony's. Biden wasnt punished for his crap bc of age but yes he is dirty.

For the love of God can you please focus on the state level for once. Biden doesn't impact your life nearly as much as Sarah Stevens and Eddie Settle do.

And don't come at me with grocery bull malarkey because Trump has already thrown that notion out the window.

But sure, what a mess, Linda McMahon running the department of ed among other unqualified misfits.

Thanks. Both my parents were mill workers and I grew up in a small mill town with a great public school education. The way public school teachers and administration are portrayed is a national disgrace. We have teachers who work all day and then into the night on behalf of their students at a ridiculous pay schedule (the number of hours actually worked with that low monthly pay,,, very few of the posters on this board would ever work for that bottom line. Oh, not including teachers reaching into their own wallets for supplies). But they have been demonized, part of the problem we're told, and the solution is to defund the Department of Education and let the parents take control over the classroom and the curriculum. Want to scream at the top of my lungs at the lunacy.

I don't think people realize how much of a disaster it will be eliminating the Department of Ed will be. The state doesn't handle education funds now as they should. What makes people think they'll do it properly for federal programs?

And in that discussion throw in the parochial schools as well. No one, outside of parents and alums, in Kernersville, High Point, Greensboro and Winston cares if Bishop wins championships. Its a faith based school, not a community school. Bishop has on multiple occasions asked to play up but were denied. Bishop won titles and many times at the expense of small communities who decades later can tell stories of players, coaches, games that no one outside of Bishop remembers past a month. That's how to approach the folks in power, don't demonize what they are voting for, don't demonize the parochials and charters because they're not evil and let the powers that be understand how a simple change can elevate communities for decades in small communities across the state.

Don't think for a second that anyone of either party cares about you on a national level. Their job is to point fingers, scare you, take you money, take your vote and when in office ignore you until the next time they need your money and votes. That's how you win national elections. Here in NC you have to play ball with the national folks or you get primaried and lose funding and you're out on your ass. Once in Raleigh you play ball with those in power in your party, which is again all about power, control and money. You get those things by demonizing people or institutions, people relate to fear not logic and facts. Bitching and moaning about charters being "unfair" will never move the needle at all. Those people who represent you are going to vote for more charters, that's not going to change. Those who rep mountain, rural and beach communities (the 1A/2A communities) need to hear from local elected officials and voters to work with the NCHSAA to devise of plan to separate the charters, not because the charters are bad but because of the effect that high school sports has on their small communities. No one in Charlotte cares if Corvian wins the 1A championship, there's no community there. Everyone in Murphy, Cherokee, Mt. Airy, and so on cares if they win, because the community wins as well. That's what your elected officials need to hear.

Former Tarboro Vikings HC Jim Brett passes away

Jimmy as he was know growing up in Ahoskie played on the Ahoskie High School Eastern State championship team in 1962. He was coached by legendary coach Jack Young who ran the basic same offense that Taroboro runs now. That's where Jim learned how to run it. He was also a very good baseball player. The Yankees were interested in him. Prayers for his family.

Tarboro has actually been running the Tarboro T since 1952 when Doug Alexander brought the offense to Tarboro. Alexander hired Brett and when Alexander retired, Brett became the head coach

NC has PLENTY of money to fund public education but they chose not to. Why? Because it’s easier to demonize them in order to scare voters and win elections. Place the blame and promise that charters are the answer because local school boards don’t really care about your kid. Then make sure to support private schools with vouchers because guess where political money comes from. Maybe you guys need to wake up, you know the “woke” that you make fun of. The gap between the haves and the have nots will continue to get bigger, and guess what, small communities are not on the right side of that equation.
