Could someone over here shine some light on a question I have. It's been stated on another site that Northeastern attempted to add both WRH and East Duplin to their OOC schedule this year and both declined. Kinston also declined a home and home as well. I know my Eagles take heat year in and year out for not playing a strong schedule but from what I'm hearing Coach Moore tries his best to schedule top programs each year and he usually gets shot down. Have any of your who are close to either program heard why the offer wasn't accepted. Both of these matchups would be great and beneficial to not only the teams but to the fans as well. This sounds like a missed opportunity and it's the first I'm hearing of it.
IMO don't even think he reached out to any of these schools. Just hyping that he tried to play these schools. WRH will never play NE unless it's in the playoffs. Tons of talented teams a lot closer. You got to understand this is highschool football, driving all the way up there is not cheap, band and cheerleaders and players/coaches all have buses. NE seems fine playing again teams up there and in VA. The location of NE really kills their hopes of playing some of the better teams in the state. Same goes for teams way out in the mnts
