Let’s have some fun!!

[Deana_King]

I’ve seen a lot of football over the past 40 so years, so it got me thinking about top players?

What state-wide player from another school would you have loved to see playing for your school?

I loved watching QB Chris Leak at Independence play. He threw perfect passes and just was so awesome to watch. Of course, we were primarily a running team back then. Lol!

What area player from a neighboring school would you have loved to see playing for your school?

Justin Billips was a Ram for a year before he left to go to Elkin. He was one of the best to do it from our area.

Freedom might well have had the Surratt brothers from East Lincoln. Their mom and dad are both from Morganton and their dad played for Freedom. They would have been there when we had BJ Emmons.
If we could have gotten Landon Dickerson (Hickory and then S. Caldwell) to go with them and what we already had then, we would have been hard to stop.

 

[bluedevil2022]

Johnny Fraiser from the days Coach Minor was at Princeton he ties the state record for TD.s in one season. He had every coach in the country after him but got lazy his Senior year but still ran for over 2000 yards that year! He went to NC STATE but drop out. He would be in the NFL if he just worked on his game!! 9.240 career all-purpose yards 109 TD in three years on varsity!! JR season rush for over 3042

 

[buzzcoach]

TA McLendon Albemarle or MACINTOSH Lexington

 

[Tarborovikingsfan2018]

Tyler Mason from MA or Julius peppers from Southern Nash

That's kind of scary to think about.

 

[RexReally]

State wide probably TA from Albemarle. Neighboring school would have wanted Julius Patterson from West Caldwell.

 

[Swain97]

From the state, probably Stephen Gosnell from more recent memory.

From the surrounding area, even though I was a baby at the time and only know the stories I've read about them. The Streeter Brothers.

RIP to the great Steve Streeter. One of the saddest things I can remember is him going off to sign a contract to play for the Redskins and then crashing his car on the way home and being paralyzed.

 

[Swain97]

I also forgot about Shawn Bryson from Franklin. What a beast he was.

 

[Vik-Val 86]

I go with West Rowan Kevin Parks. Would like to see him played at South Iredell. So many good players over the years I’ve seen played. It hard to pick which ones.

 

[Vik-Val 86]

Good topic with this is. What all players would you pick for a dynasty team. I’m sure there be some good answers with this.

 

[Mhsneer]

State wide. Leonard Little

Rival Trey Robinson.

 

[greydog86]

Maiden Quarterback Caleb Farley. Fastest high school player that I saw in person.

Kelvin Bryant with Tarboro, the Fall of 1978. He only played the first half of games…

 

[recycled2]

I'll take Swain's Heath Shuler throwing to Murphy's Carl Pickens.

 

[msgtcody]

Toney Baker from Ragsdale was a force to be reckoned with in his day. He was going to get his either way; you just hoped to get more.

I'd mostly forgotten about him until this thread, but I still remember how he scored 15 touchdowns in three games playing for Carolina. I hope he's had a happy life after football, but it's hard to find much about him.

 

[Bearfan71]

Yea let's have some fun Mt airy not receiving turf and new press box funding after all these county school new fields who have won nothing last two years I'm voting Democrat at state level in Mt airy next election Steven's and Settle are not what we need after winning 2 titles in a row

 

[TD-FridayNight]

Sara Stevens tried to blame it on the school, according to the front page of the Mount Airy News this week, like MA would turn down the money that all the other schools got. lol, They will not get my vote in the next election.

 

[Bearfan71]

Well leave there tale hanging they need our vote in 2 years and I've voted for them religiously but no more and bad thing ole Steven's campaigns on radio broadcast she needs find her another home

 

[Bearfan71]

Turf new press box or don't run for reelection we should of had it before any of the county losers

 

[Thunder_struck8712]

The best thing Surry County can do is get rid of Sarah Stevens.

But dang how did Mayberry try and get this thread off the rails.

Lets see Michael Dobson in 2008 at Elkin. Elkin and Mount Airy have 2 barn burners that year.

 

[greydog86]

Every single thread..........

 

[Bearfan71]

Sorry for venting on here but when I read that article last week it really pissed me off after they did all county schools it kinda built over several days I didn't say nothing to start with our money probably went to the local charter school if I'm betting man

 

[Thunder_struck8712]

If I recall right, Mount Airy declined the turf.

You have nothing to be sorry for ! As I said on another thread I have never seen a Thread that stayed on the thread topic. They all get off-topic when someone has something to say and it does not need a new thread just to say it. We all are guilty of getting off-topic at times !

Seems like I remember exactly which thread that was!!!
And there is a, shall we say, certain set of school’s supporters that are quite often guilty of such. That is not always true however. The recent private verses public is a good example of this. The topic in question probably does deserve its own thread though. The fact that I’m responding to you is “off topic” as well however…
Mea culpa everyone…

 

[BigRedFan27]

Andy Temoney would have looked really good in red on Friday nights. Awesome player but a better young man.

T.A. running the ball in Pilot Mtn with our defense around that time would have made something special

Go Big Red
#27Forever

 

[beamer24]

Darren Dula or Titus Tucker from West Caldwell.
Landon Dickerson from South Caldwell.
Statewide would be tough but I'd go with Norris Harper from Shelby or Tre Harbison from Crest.

 

[Deana_King]

This thread has nothing to do about turf, pressbox and politics!

There is a current thread you can vent on but not this one!!

 

[Shelby Lion]

Todd Gurley from tarboro, I can imagine that rascal rounding the corner on a Chris Norman Buck Sweep

Justin running behind that '02 Starmount line would have been unreal. He might still be running.

As I said, all threads get off-topic. Are you going to set everyone straight on all threads like you do the ones you start ? In my opinion, this was a dumb thread anyway. These players played where they played and not where someone wished they had played ! As I said, I have never seen a thread stay on topic and I don't expect any future threads will remain on topic. The topic only said, Let’s have some fun!!

Maybe I won't post on this thread again and you will be happy !

Dang, I am not believing you just said we have to stay on your topic when all threads get off topic ! ! !

The problem is that you actually think people care about your opinion, they don't. I liked this topic. Posters have no respect for several of you ma posters, because you don't respect others's posts. You want to drag MA into everything. Try giving what you demand: respect

 

[sbbbfan]

Would love to had TA McClendon or Gurley.
Locally Chris Griggs was very good.

Classless, temper tantrum. This type of behavior usually gets straightened out by adolescence for most.

Well some are still getting off the thread topic Deana started. She don't like us getting off her thread topic but if I start a thread it will be ok to get off my topic. lol. Find another thread to put this old man down, ROFLMAO...

No one is putting you down, you do that extremely well by yourself. Your tantrums, ranting and pouting are far more effective than what others could do. Prove you have advanced past the 5 year old stage and either stop making things about you or walk away.
