WRH at East Duplin rematch. (Poll)
- Thread starter sam
- Start date
I'am sorry i misread the brackets my bad. I thought if Wallace beat ED they would come to Whiteville. I was wrong.
Clock has been an issues in past too. WRH only had one penalty Friday nite. Think we'll get lit up this Friday?
Whiteville looks good. Real good. Would love to play Eastern championship in Whiteville. Pay back JP
It’s all good Strick....you’re a cool poster up here. I was replying to old man Wiz and all his trash talk last week.
Pretty bold statements. Did you actually wait around at the ticket booth to see that? My experience is that officials leave the field fairly quickly to go change clothes and many times do not go back into the field of play. By the time we had left the Clinton stands were filing out and headed out.
I also am curious about "every single call" going EDs way. I gave one example that went Clinton's way and simply stated that questionable calls during a game usually balance out. Bottom line is, I am not going to change your mind, Clinton fans minds (including my buddy) about the calls. It has been around since the beginning of sports regardless of the sport.
Seems you made a lot of predictions last week that did not come to fruition. I think you had West Craven beating Wallace (yet you like them this week) and also for some reason posted disparaging remarks a very, very good Whiteville team. Now based on other posts you are a Northeastern guy. Then, if you do not like a poster, you ignore them. I know you have been at this a long time. It is evidenced by the number of posts you have on this site and I also remember you from the old NChometeam site. You follow the same MO each time. It really is boorish behavior and follows a pattern. I am not 72, but I am close and I really hope I do not come across in discussions the same way you do or more importantly in person. Oh well, I do not guess you can change now. Try and be happy.
If I were still wearing my reporter hat, I would ask Coach Johnson about some of his strategy that had me and others scratching their heads. Why take a knee at end of the first half with a couple of timeouts left and the ball around the 35 especially when ED gets the second half kickoff. Why not feature #24 more? Why not have a better special teams showing? No PATs attempted and a shank punt and from what I understand have not tried PATs in many weeks. As I said, and I am no coach, but it was a 17 point win for the victors and IMO the better team won. Look forward to going back next week.
@Sportscribe I made a post on the Hertford county game thread pregame about #24 Jakwon Wilson’s usage been pounding the table for weeks about giving him more opportunities he was a game changer big play potential anytime he touched the ball…..on that 4th down stop late in the game we ran back to back QB draws/powers #24 deserved atleast one of those carries……..he did have a pretty significant injury in the spring that kept him out the whole spring season after 2-3 games not sure any lingering effects(health wise) playoffs big time game you live and die with the ball in your best players hands not saying Blake Smith wasnt one of our best seen him get those tough yards like that many times before but Wilson deserved a shot aswell.
Thanks for the response. I do not recall seeing the post you referenced in the other thread. It is not like I see Clinton each week like some, but each time 24 had the ball he was a threat to score I thought. The QB is certainly capable, but I think ED prevented him from hurting them for the most part. Maybe the staff saw something they thought they could exploit.
I am not sure how close you are to the program #34, but I saw former Darkhorse standout Leonard Henry last night. For some reason I thought he was on staff but it did not appear he was associated with the team. Great, great former Dark Horse player in a long line of former greats. Have seen many DH games in the past and have always had good relationships with Clinton coaches going back to Bobby Robinson and Karen Fox in girls Bball.

@Sportscribe I’m not sure I don’t want to speculate when Johnson was first hired initially I think Henry was going to be on the staff, but that’s also around the time I think he became the Pastor at First Baptist of Clinton so I never really asked why I just figured he wanted to put all his focus into the church
As for the officiating last night….The videos I saw were pretty unsettling that 4th down stop that was made a 1st down was as clear as day wasn’t even close. At that point in the game it’s 24-22 Clinton takes over around mid field with a chance to take the lead so that was a pretty significant blow to a young defense. Easy for us adults to say hey just pick yourself back up immediately and do it again wind was clearly knocked out their sails that was a huge call. Yea it’s bad officiating in many games great/elite teams can over come that I’m on record saying multiple times this was not a great Clinton team good team very good in some areas not so much in others……I’m not taking anything way from ED they won the game but please don’t make us out to be bad people for being upset about it cause we all know if the shoe was on the other foot some ED guys would be saying the same exact things
I'm not about to jump on the WRH wagon; there is no wagon; I'd rather watch a proven winner like NE. Someone that's won a conference championship lately. Who ever win next Friday, NE will scald you!
I didn't call you out. And I don't have a problem with any other poster here... I don't even really have a problem with you. You're just an old man prattling around the county, stuck in 1997.
It was. T balanced last night Sportscribe. All that stuff sound warm and fuzzy when all is said and done you have to look at the real world Tagic calls and happening have lingerging effects, im convince if the ball was placed correctly, Clinton would have assumbed possession and certainly c
scored.to take the lead in the 4th qtrWhart. Ade matter was who made the call the white hat who was 10 yards behind the EED offensive backs, the side judge had already ruled clinton stooped him and the defense was celebrating going off the fiekd They knew he was stoppped but whir hat out of position made tec call. The trap and most anone in the stdium could see the ball Good luck in your foothall foyoragingbounce into the recievers arms except the white hat who was behind the reciever not in position. To make the call, he couldnt see it; the ver close down measuremt called for the night and it awas close and the chan broke during the stretch, someone said tge official keot his hand on the ball so it would be movef, im. Ot. Worrird about the ball but tbhe broken chain and what thry did to correct it
the whirte hat down in ythr enzo e conjoling with fans along the fensez. It was like HOMECOMING WHAT WE SAW ALL THE SOCIALIZING GOING ON,IT REALLY UPSER SOME MMA EAEARS AND DADDYS; you can imagine how it affected the players, our children. They know the game too and they got feejings tpp, as for not initiating aanythihing the lasr two min of the half, they sere in poor field as a result to some prnalties and i think they want to get to the dressing room fot adjutmfent to be made. every call was a gamechanger, alot of sfuff going on, i just dont think it was fairly officiatred thats all
Way to early on Sunday morning for me to try and unscramble all that. But I think The Wizard is saying Good Morning everyone especially the East Duplin people!!!!!
Wtf is all this nonsense. 3 am you gotta be the only one up and on this site. Grumpy old man strikes again, Clinton wasn't very good this year.....
Well you can be my critic because I don’t subscribe. I’m nit a professional, I’m just a fan but I do have a vey good understanding between what’s right and wrong
And I’m talking about the white hats interaction with the crowd during the game. Irregardless of whom he may have been talking to it was inappropriate, gave a unprofessional imAge Just a p___ pour job.

Soortscribe , you don’t know me you don’t know anything about me, Seems like you’re doing the same thing you’re a accusing me if doing. Historically there’s been a lot of dissing fellow posters on these sites going all the way back to as you said the NCHometeam site which was before the 2001 start of this site. No telling how many post I had then as well. As you said I’m the same person now as I was the, just 25 years older. People then didn’t like me because I made the bold prediction that Clinton would beat Shelby in 1997 and thst in fact no one would score more than 21 points on Clinton till the 3rd round of the playoffs Clayton was the only team that did 21 points) so I was wrong as I was wrong on some predictions last eeek So what? Does it make me unhappy? Certainly not! What does make me unhappy is when I see officials make so many mistakes in a crucial game involving the team I support. Simply saying mistakes happen or it part of the game is a “WOKE” response.
Do you have any coaching experience other than little league? Good I don’t either I would not pretend to put on coaching strategies on this forum questioning what Coach Johnson would do. This very young man followed a coaching legend in his fist head coaching job, won 3 straight ECC championships, compiling a record of 35-9 over 4 seasons, and you a sleazy sportswriter are going to tell him what to do.
I tell you what you can do, quit reading my post and put your half a___ newspaper on you where the sun doesnt shine. See I’m the same as you, I just put it in different words. I use to read your trash because you’d try to cover the ECC. The ECC doesn’t matter anymore. It’s only a skeleton of what was a great conference. Now it’s the Duplin County conference and whoever they want to play
Happy writing, I’m sure you’ll get a kick out of this. Come out with all the proper words and conduct. I don’t care. The Wizard is going to keep on being the Wizard . Guess what I now know who the white hat was talking to, guess who? Noneya ……… None your Business
I will give my pregame summary on Wednesday. I will give my pic, score and details of how I think the game will play out. I am partial to the Bulldog. 😀
That’s a lot of jibberish for a 72yo man(more like a boy) who thinks he’s a bad@$$ while his team sits on the couch this week. Get a grip man, you’d think someone of your age wouldn’t act so childish on a public football forum. Words don’t mean a whole lot when the only time you will say them is behind a computer screen. Keyboard weekend warrior huh?
Got to respect them. Don’t like em but respect their efforts to be a good program, nice field etc. Same as WRH, don’t like them but Dawg pound is a great place to watch a game and WRH is always talented.
The head of officiating and a couple of other guy's with him were at our game Friday night. The white hat kept going over and talking to them but it was info on the game he was giving. It made me curious as to who they were so I got closer in the 2nd half and just finally asked them. I think his last name was Rouse but I'm not sure right now. Id have to look at my facebook live video I was doing. That may have been the same thing you saw Wiz at your game.
Wiz is actually super cool in person and Im sure there are many posters up here who would say the same. I’m curious how you know that he wouldn’t say the same things to you in person? Have you asked to meet up with him in the past?
I'm not sure if I'm going to ED or not. I'm leaning toward going to Northside to watch them play county rival Southside in Beaufort County. I have a co-worker that has invited me to go with them. I've never been to a game there and its a big rivalry game in 1A. As for WRH-ED I don't really know a lot about ED this year. I know they beat you earlier and they have Battle Holley. But its really hard to beat a good team twice in one year and WRH is a really good team. So I think WRH will continue on.
no it wasn't, I now know and it was nothing to do with ED; still under the circumstance, it did not give a professional unbiased impression. He was a horrible official. I use to know the booking agent in New Bern. A good friend of mine.I don't think he still does it but yes he would attend games to evaluate crews.

Hard to beat em twice. Hell it was hard to beat em once. Guess ED will show up and just do the best they can!! 😁😁
Excellent facilities, but more than one fan base, coaching base will tell you playing at ED involves a certain amount of home cooking. DogPound, a. excellent place to watch a game close to the action, old-school atmosphere, great upgrades at both RD and WRH over the years. I've never felt a sense of home cooking at WRH. Actually, WRH is one of my favorite places to watch a ballgame! other than Robinson-Lewis Field at DarkHorse Stadium.
It should be a classic as usual. Nothing but respect for you guys and your program
Please show us some PROOF OF YOUR senseless accusations of so called Home Cooking at ED. I want facts, not personal feelings. Wiz you wouldn't have said one negative word had the Horses came out with a win. Prove me wrong Mr Know It All😡
It really goes both ways olddog. We know all this crap on here doesn't matter.
thanks daagoob, I am the same in person, usually pretty easygoing, but if you strike, I'm going to strike back. Sorry, most of the time I'm not a turn the cheek kind of guy Yep have some sins.I would say the same about you having met you in person a couple times, a knowledgeable poster who knows much more than one might think, loves high school football, not just the program he supports but loves his team and coach.I'm always eager to meet posters and have met many over the years. The Reidsville posters we use to have a "Meeting of the Mouths" several years annually where posters from several schools gathered just before playoffs. to eat and have a good time.I hope to see you in the coming weeks but I'm not coming all the way to Elizabeth City. Maybe the state championship game, have they announced which college the 2A site?
Wizard, where's the PROOF FOR YOUR COMMENT, oh that's right you don't have any. It's all your Old Washed Up Opinion!!!!
ED has a very good team, one of the best I've seen this year, and I'm not insinuating (honestly) they had anything to do with it but if they have the same officiating crew they had last week, no problem. I know some will so take it any way you want it. No I nor many aren't over it yet and if the shoe was on the other foot you wouldn't either. As they use to say in the old days the film, (now video, official, and cell phone) doesn't lie. Anyway Good luck to your Panthers, I've always admired the Holley father-son coaching tree.

really just a game that matters for community pride. Many schools don't have a real local community like the smaller 2A and 1a! schools.
