I know a lot of people have that mindset that you keep a team #1 until they lose, but in High School Football it doesn't always work that way.Always respect your thoughts. Thanks for taking time out your day brother. Looks good.
I'd have Reidsville 1, until they lose.

Yes, they return a hall of fame coach in Jim Teague, but they also lost a lot of tremendous talent that's tough to replace. Yes, I know that they always have talent and I do believe that they'll still be Top-2-3 good, but considering the talent that Monroe and Salisbury returns, it's hard to not pick those two ahead of the Rams.
Salisbury is still nasty with linebacker Jalon Walker, and Monroe has two of the best players I've seen in Shaleak Knotts.
WRH returns all of their quality RB’s. They have some new Olinemen they have to work in, their QB returns. The Clinton/WRH matchup week 2 will give us all a preview of who could represent the east in the state championship.WRH really is a sleeper. I cloud see them go deep.
Salisbury, Shelby, Reidsville, Northeastern, East Duplin, Clinton, St. Paul's, Wallace Rose Hill, SWO, WashingtonWhat would yalls personal opinion be on a preseason top ten list?

Welcome back to 2A, Monroe, and they will be a problem. They’re always athletic, and they have one of the best coaches in the state. Had Hunter Huss not successfully contested, and avoided coming back to 2A, 2A would be the strongest division of all, in my opinion.

Max Preps rankings after Spring Ball.
Shelby was next….followed byWhat's going on with Shelby that they're not ranked
Not trying to be mean but why would anybody trust MaxPreps? They have no clue.Why wouldn't MaxPreps rank Shelby at least 2 or 3.
My post may have been misleading…..my apology….I’ll try to clear it up!Why wouldn't MaxPreps rank Shelby at least 2 or 3.
I remember when this years Reidsville’s Talented senior class started 8 sophomores the first year they played and beat a more talented Northeastern team in the State Finals. I feel this years team has the talent to do the same thing, but its go come down to how well the QB develops.My top 10 would probably look like this...
1. Monroe
2. Salisbury

Where do you have Shelby going into this season? This team is seriously loaded, especially at the skill positions and D line. If the offensive line develops into a solid group, look out. Offensive line is always a concern for any high school team. Don’t be misled by what happened in the spring. The Lions will return to prominence. This upcoming season is already fun, coming into the season in an unfamiliar role of being slept on.Monroe is the team to beat. What's sad is there might be an early match up with them and Reidsville/Salisbury in the playoffs depending on seedings.
Why would that be if they are all top seeds?Monroe is the team to beat. What's sad is there might be an early match up with them and Reidsville/Salisbury in the playoffs depending on seedings.
Are they running the three man front again on D? IMO that hurt them in the spring.Where do you have Shelby going into this season?
11 conference champions in 2a West….it could happen ….in a 2nd round game.Why would that be if they are all top seeds?
They're in the top 5-7. I'm leaning on what I saw in the Spring from most teams. I don't see any easy games in the playoffs like with subdivided classes. You have to contend with Salisbury, Reidsville, Monroe, Burns. Chase and Hendersonville may also have something to say in the playoffs. Chances of brutal 2nd round games are high, along with chances of a beat up western representative.Where do you have Shelby going into this season?

There's no more subdivision, as I mentioned before the cluster of high caliber teams are in the same arena now and not very far from each other. There's too many of them not to have an early round match up.Why would that be if they are all top seeds?

You can’t gage a team by how they do in a scrimmage. Reidsville hardly ever looks good in scrimmages, because the coach is switching players in and out and moving them around to find players to fill key positions lost to graduation. I’m pretty sure ES coaches does the same thing.Made it to the East Wilkes/ East Surry scrimmage today and you can take East Surry out of the top 20. With the absence of Benge Goznell (who went back to Carroll Co. were he actually lives) ES looked like a lower tier team in the 2a at best. I really thought EW got the better of them. Good thing Lowman dropped Reidsville and N. Davidson. Not enough boards in the woodshed for those matchups.
speaking of scrimmages...did Reidsville scrimmage northern guilford on wed as scheduled....storms were in the area...glad I didn't waste 6 dollars........
like it's been said....if you ain't got the horses up front to block....running backs won't be going anywhere except down...I was afraid this would be the case....Reidsville's O line last year was outstanding....unsung heroes..........maybe the coaches can work it out and find the right mix....skill position players are defintely there.................Defense looked good!
offense didn’t look very good. Offensive like is the main concern
