I really believe he may be one of the best High School Football Coaches. Of course time will tell, but if he had stayed at Mt Airy, the 36 straight wins would have increase to 58, 2 state titles to 4 straight, etc.Update: JK Adkins is in town...you know how they are doing. End of story!
One kid from Patton and a kid from Draughn that I know of so far.
I think I only saw them play once or twice last season, so I don't know all their kids. But I'm pretty sure they got hit hard by graduation.Does Draughn have many return players from last year's team!
Overall i think that he is a better all around athlete than his older brother who is now playing at NC State at WR. He's not as tall yet but id guess he's around 6'2. he can play anywhere on the field but my guess will be WR, Safety, or LB. He served as backup QB and starting JV QB but didn't get much action behind a very talented sibling. i expect him to help Freedom a lot over the next 2 seasons. Go Pats!!!I saw where Draughn QB's little brother has gone to freedom this year
I think the Patriot boys basketball team could be deep this upcoming season. With the Tillery kid that could add some much needed height.Overall i think that he is a better all around athlete than his older brother who is now playing at NC State at WR.

the staff should reach out and try to talk him into playing. he's a rebounding and shot blocking machineI think the Patriot boys basketball team could be deep this upcoming season. With the Tillery kid that could add some much needed height.
That was the worst luck of a team last year for EB snake bit for sure!! lost all the key people that whole senior class was bang up all year at one time!! That is why we might be better this year they played a lot of young players.When EB beat Freedom this past year I could hear maybe a couple chants “13 years “ “13 years” Or was it 14? . I figure the Slim Friday( pun intended) game we witnessed with that victory will be short lived. That’s how many years it was since EB beat Freedom last. Freedom had the worst team (if not
It was in top 3 worst lol) of all time last year. EB played good and the injury thing hadn’t hit em yet. If they played that game 3 or 4 weeks later EB woulda lost.
Draughn had most graduate out of all 4 of em didn’t they?
I hope they are better but I tell ya what there’s no replacing Byrd and Fraley as far as overall athleticism. Coble and Bostian hard to replace too and Dellinger will DEEPLY be missed But Soph RB and Jr QB that has improved and or will improve and build they may be ok if they got some components around them. All depends on how that Patton game goes if they don’t get them by much you’ll know it’ll be a long seasonThat was the worst luck of a team last year for EB snake bit for sure!! lost all the key people that whole senior class was bang up all year at one time!!
