Next head football coach at Montgomery Central

Whomever they choose, I hope the person is committed to building a program that hasn’t materialized even after the first two “can’t miss” head coaches weren’t able to get the ball rolling. The West Vs East rivalry is over. It is way past time to come together as a county and support the new consolidated school.

They just won 6 games, best season for them since 2017 when both West and East were good. 2018 both West and East fell of a cliff and were terrible. If Simmons predictions come true MC will be in a conference with Lee County, Union Pines, Western Harnett, Southern Lee, Asheboro, Seaforth and Jordan Matthews. They would be 6A and the last two teams would be 5A. If that conference holds they should be very competitive. LC is good but not great they finished 6-6, Southern Lee is not very good they hover around .500 or less most every year. Union Pines right would be top dog in that conference and they finished 6-5. Western Harnett is terrible 0-10 this year and its doubtful they improve much at all. Seaforth is 3-7 and didn't beat anyone any good and JM is 3-7 as well with 3 wins over horrible teams. So their conference ain't exactly hard. Pick up 4 winnable or 50-50 non-conference games and you could be looking at 6-7 wins a year, with a good team 8-9.

I would NOT count on J-M or Western Harnett to be in a conference with MC. First, J-M will most likely go 4A. Second, Western Harnett, will follow Harnett Central and Triton wherever they go. After that, you might have a conference. But, MC could go in all sorts of directions whether it's a 4A/5A league, a 5A/6A league, or even a 5A conference period. I wouldn't bet the farm on Brian Simmons' predictions. Moat likely, you'll see MC in some kind of split league (either 4A/5A or 5A/6A).

He's either thinking of Brian Hinson, presently head football coach at West Cabarrus and an East Montgomery alumnus, or, the legendary B.W. Holt, a West Montgomery alumnus.
Not being disrespectful, How old is BW Holt, got to be pushing 80?
