If I remember correctly Chris said he could bring it back but it cost several thousand dollars to do so and keep it up. Someone even said to start a go fund me page and someone said they would donate. It takes a lot of money to keep something with all the teams in the state on it and all the information updated. Maybe NCPrep will help bring it back.I'm I the only one that remembers Chris saying it was probably lost for good.
Did I miss something?

The last thing I remember Chris posting on his huge information on schools year by year school conference, school ADM, and coaches win & loss records. Lets just hope he can get it back up by this fall. Good Luck Chris, you had a good thing there !My goal is to have the pages back up before the fall season. I'm working with a programmer to re-build them, but when you're not really paying him, he works slow! It's probably going to cost around $2,500 or so to get them back up and running, and that's with me doing the bulk of the data-entry. When I built the pages, then had them modernized back around 2012, it cost me $14,000 doing it right; good quality website work is expensive!
Thank you, Chris. You had something in that that no one had, not even the NCHSAA has it all in one accessible place with so much information. It was genius to have created it that way with all the information in one place. I never went through a season without going to it multiple times ! I think NCPreps should kick in and help with expenses. It is to their benefit on 1A through 4A. If you had thought ahead of time and copied and saved all the HTML codes by right-clicking on the view page source, you could have saved every page.This is still an ongoing process, partly because the cost is very high, and second, it's having to manually re-enter all of the data. It is happening though, just slowly! Stay tuned.
I've really tried to avoid that because I hate to ask anyone for anything.... but I may consider it. Looking about 3,500 in programmer expenses.Ill be more than happy to donate if that’s what it takes
Start a go fund me page and I will help with what I can. I'll be 71 this year and SS doesn't go far but I will add at least $25.00 or more and if 140 people did the same or more you can do it. Some can probably afford more. Who will match my $25.00 ?I've really tried to avoid that because I hate to ask anyone for anything.... but I may consider it.

This COVID year probably hurt you some on your book sales. It may pay you to get a deposit on preorder sales if you do one this fall. I will do a preorder and deposit if you do a magazine this summer. If you sell them at a location at Mount Airy scrimmage I will prepay the full cost. I may have a nother way to help you move some. Just an idea I was going to suggest this past fall but was afraid the COVID would ruin it. PM or email me if you do one and I will let you know what I have in mind. I will ask for nothing to help you out.Believe me if I had the extra money I would pick up the cost. I work two jobs so you know I’m struggling to get by, but I will donate if there is a fund.
I know too well about asking for donations with my football book.
I offered to sell them to the NCHSAA last spring, they declined.The NCHSAA should come off their $40 million and help out.

Honestly it’s a good thing they passed - they would’ve messed it up somehow just like they do everything else.Shocker. Such a shame. Great information that would generate plenty of hits on their website.
After all, a good number of us are not paying members of NCPrep. I one-time donation to get Chris's site back up is well worth it. Also for those that have not seen it you are going to be well satisfied with the trove of information, you can't find it anywhere on one site without hours of searching. ADMs, Conferences, and the season winners going back around 20 years. Coaches of each school and their win, lose records and different coaches that coached at all these schools going back many years. There is so much I can't list it all. If I have missed anything maybe someone else can list it. If I can afford more than $25.00, all the information is worth far far more for a one-time payment, not a donation because you will be getting far more for what up spend than many things we throw our money away for. Worth far more than 4 packs of cigarettes but I don't smoke.LOLStart a go fund me page and I will help with what I can.

I’ll donate tell me where to find the pageI offered to sell them to the NCHSAA last spring, they declined.
And seems I seen they had around $42,000 in reserve. They just don't want to take time to update it every year with yearly changes.I offered to sell them to the NCHSAA last spring, they declined.
Good luck ! Sorry to hear about your web developer.There is something in the works to put the content up before the pages are done.... my web developer died of Covid so that's put me behind the 8-ball.

He is looking for a Sun Drop ambassador's contract. ;-)Keep me posted. I'll gladly donate.
Chris,I want to give you all an update, I went under contract today with a new web developer and they feel confident that they can rebuild the database. Now I'll have to enter all of the games back in, by hand, but at least there is a chance that they could be up and running within a few weeks to a month.
Don't ask about the cost, I'm having to sell some body parts to pay for it, but it'll be worth it. (I hope)
I'll be more than happy to get it in quick.... right after South Rowan!Good to hear! I have all Starmount data for you!
