Hi fellows, hope everybody has had a blessed summer and life is great for you. It's thankfully that time for football again! So I just wanted to create some small discussion about North.
First, is this for sure the last year for Midway? Will the school be smaller next year? It breaks my heart that this happening but it is what it is.
We got a pretty exciting schedule I think, though the three straight road games is rough. Still, we will get the Raiders at home finally and I think West also, so that will be important. We are getting some Charlotte action also, so that will really help the boys.
I also wanna say something about Holcomb, because his team could be so different next year. Probably the most significant thing that he has done to make ND great again is create a winning and proud culture. When I came through, while the guys on the team were proud of being black knights, there were a lot of guys who played and quit next year or didn't play at all after middle school that we really needed to be successful. They didn't care or have much pride in the football team. Well now there are roughly 120 kids on the team this year, just unbelievable. A big part of that is because coach has created a winning environment that people just naturally wanna be a part of. This has lead to great success and coach has been a tremendous part of this. If you know Mark, he's very humble but works very hard and knows his stuff and the kids just love him. They buy what he's selling because what he sells is sincerity.
Finally I just wanna wish all the seniors the best year of their lives. Take the time and enjoy it boys. It's a real treasure to be able to go out there and put the pads on. If you only get in on practice, or your the starting QB, savor every second of it, because for most of you, after this season it's gone forever. I hope you boys have an awesome season to carry with you forever. Kicked off, I know this is a big year for you folks.
Go knights.
