No one is on Grayson schedule that will upset them. The toughest part of their schedule is behind them. But what can happen is a team that runs the spread effectivley and gets a 2 touchdown lead on them would give them trouble. Both South Gwinnett and Parkview run the spread and giave them fits until the 4th quarter where Grayson showed their mettle and pulled away to win each. Grayson’s strength is their defense hands down.

Westminister with Ralph David Abernathy has a chance to upset Buford on Oct 30th. That will be a game to watch.

LaGrange over Carver next week. Even with the home field advantage enjoyed by Carver-Col, the Grangers win. (unless the officials play a HUGE factor), which they are more than capable of doing in Columbus, Ga. The Grangers are a better team led by the 2 most under rated players in the state: RB Ocie Salter(5′5 162) and QB Jamius Gunsby(6′5 229).

Cherokee is a nice place to watch the game being that close to the field…But 2 negatives:

1) No Cheerleaders to stir up the crowd…they have to be on either end and not in front of the visitors stands…

2) That bldg. that sits in the middle of the visitors side, it blocks the view unless you are up real high in the stands…

Black and Gold24: If what you’re saying is correct & I have no reason to doubt you, then Warner Robins is in for a long night. They simply can not throw the ball. Stop the run & you beat the Demons. It has been that way in the past, it is now & will be in the future. Outside of Bob Davis (son of the coach), when has Warner Robins had a QB that could throw?

Todd: Nice preview on the Marist vs. SWD game. You noted that both schools have produced a lot of D-I players. Here is something that might surprise even you — both teams have produced the same number of NFL players, but Marist has the most currently in the NFL (and indeed Marist currently has among the most players in the NFL as any high school in the country). Should be a great game tonight.

plowboy – The Monkies taught me to be a DAYDREAM BELIEVER years ago. My dream is for Colquitt to beat Northside, and for Warner Robins to do the same thing to da eagles at the mac. It’d also be nice for Colquitt to whup Warner Robins tonight at the Hog Pen in Moultrie!

Here’s also hoping EP, Harrison, Union Grove, Liberty County, and Bradwell Institute win 2nite. Parkview can get back into the picture as the 4th place team in Region 8-AAAAA by staying at home and sitting this weekend out.

I will have to agree. Mark Crews and his staff are perhaps the worst coaches I’ve seen in a decade. They have pretty decent talent but they don’t seem to know how to coach the boys up. The kids have digressed under Crews and the boys. The defense is horrible. They have an offense led by a quarterback that’s horrible. He is the worst in the league. I would hope that the college scouts are not that gullible. The McClane and the Moore’s probably cost Brookwood a chance at a championship….. Dacula 35 – Brookwood 7…..

Thanks Crews……

Vikes69: HoCo is playing like a middle school program. I would not even waste my time on that game. You can go to the following site: http://www.wnngthepatriot.com/News-Talk_WNNG,_The_Patriot_(AM/wnng_streaming.html. You should be able to hit the Warner Robins Demon icon and it will go to their radio broadcast of the game.

Plowboy: What evidence shows you that Colquitt County is prepared to compete against the top teams in the region? Did you listen to a Rush Propst press conference. Alabama football is not close to Georgia football from top to bottom. This guy Propst is a legend in his own mind. Lowndes County VIOLATED Colquitt County. Warner Robins runs a similar offense. It baffles me that you simply assume that this guy, Propst, has figured out how to stop the Wing T. Either you get it like the coaches at Grayson and Warner Robins or you do not get it like the coaches at Colquitt County and Peachtree Ridge. Colquitt is not prepared to stop Warner Robins. You will see. Last season Lowndes County put up 51 points on Colquitt. Warner Robins scored 39 points and their team was not good last season. Lowndes put up 30 on Colquitt. I expect Warner Robins to have no problems scoring tonight.

NHS Eagle Fan and ENR, I hear what you are saying, and all the chest thumping in the world about Warner Robins football, will not change the result on the field. Sorry but the Packers will send the Demons, and the Bears back to Houston county with a loss, then you can flip a coin to pick the winner of NSWR and Colquitt.

BlackandGold24: You are absolutely correct! Football games are won on the field, not in chat rooms. There is no doubt about that. I just wanted you to know what train is headed your way.

Black&Gold, you know that I love our Northside Eagles. I mean this honestly. I will not be surprised if Warner Robins wins the region or finishes in second place. I know that you are laughing. However, I have seen these guys from Warner Robins play. I think their brand of football is VERY boring. However, I think their brand of football is hard to beat. Colquitt County has NEVER beaten their smashmouth (Wing T) brand of football under Rush Propst. Furthermore, the Packers have not even been competitive against such offenses giving up 40 or 50+ points. Travel is the only thing that is going to stop Warner Robins from really embarassing Colquitt. That is why I am saying Warner Robins 28, Colquitt County 7.

I could be wrong. I just think that Warner Robins has played and competed against Grayson already. If you can get on a bus and compete against Grayson, why would you struggle against Colquitt County? I just don’t see it. I think Grayson is better than every team in our Region, including Northside, Lowndes County, Valdosta, and Colquitt County. I could be wrong. However, I think Warner Robins has played the best and will beat every team that does not play up to those standards. The Valdosta game was a series of misfortunes for Warner Robins. The soundly outplayed Valdosta. They are going to outplay Colquitt County too.

Black and Gold24………..Much respect for the Packers , I attended Northside’s last regular season game in Moultrie last season……Even with a convincing win by the Eagles I was impressed with the Packs offensive scheme ,I said then that the Pack would have to be dealt with this season and I was correct……..But the demons are pretty good on defense and can move the ball well…Win or lose , it won’t be a cake walk for either team ……good luck though ,I think this is the most important game for the Pack in many years………I’m off to Tifton , ill be listening to whats happening in
Moultrie also…………Vikes dont beat up on the Hoco cubbies too bad!

ENR: Evidently you do not read the history books. When Warner Robins & Northside win as many state titles as Valdosta & Lowndes, then your posts may have validity. Believe it or not, the sun does not rise and shine on NSWR as you would have it believe. With a team that has won over 100 games, you would expect them to win more than 2 STATE titles! Just because you beat Lowndes this year, don’t go wearing yourself out patting yourself on the back. (Disclaimer-I did not go to HS in Georgia, My wife is a WRHS grad, but that’s beside the point.) There is a reason they call Valdosta Winnersville. Did you not see the special on ESPN last year? Well, we might as well cancel the rest of the season & anoint MIGHTY NSWR STATE CHAMPS.

What do you think about a Lowndes-Northside re-match in the state final?

I’ll cut to the chase. Lowndes hangs a significant beatdown on your boys, and the only spread that will matter is the Northside spread-eagle as you take (a big) one for the team.

SouthGARules: I am not of the opinion that State Championships in the 1940s, 1950s, 1960s are something to do cartwheels about, due to skewed school attendance policies. Society was not represented by the people who were crowned state champions. Those state championships really do not apply to football today in the state of Georgia. For a matter of fact, since the state playoff format was changed comparing State Championships prior to 1990 is similar to comparing a playoff run in MLB today, with multiple rounds of playoff series, to the old days of MLB when a team won the pennant based upon their regular season record and only two teams made the playoffs which were the World Series. You are comparing apples and oranges.

Today, Grayson is a better program than Clarke Central. Grayson has no state championships. Nonetheless, they are a better program on and off of the field than Clarke Central, a traditional power. Grayson is better at this moment. Today, at this moment, Lowndes County is a better program than Valdosta. The Vikings have better facilities. They have better coaches. They have better players. It is not even close. Valdosta has more state titles. Valdosta is not better at any level of a high school football program than programs like Lowndes County or Northside today. Northside is better than Warner Robins. Peachtree Ridge is better than Parkview. I could go on and on.

Valdosta HS does not win in anything…not one sport…not one GHSA event. We can get involved in some sort of pissing contest. However, if your wife really went to Warner Robins, she will inform you that Northside has won multiple GHSA State Championships in many areas. The success on the football field is more recent.

Since our school opened in 1963, Northside High School has more GHSA State Champinonships trophies at our high school than Warner Robins, Valdosta, Lowndes County, Colquitt County, Coffee, Houston County, and Tift County combined over the same period of time. WE ARE THE WINNERS! End of story.

Northside has 27 different GHSA State Championship trophies that sit in our high school over the past 51 years. You are simply familier with two recent football state championships. I do not believe that you can say that about Lowndes County or Valdosta or any other one dimensional (football only) school within 100 square miles of Valdosta. Find 27 GHSA State Championships at Valdosta and Lowndes County (COMBINED) and get back to me.

I do not want to hear about Winnersville. That is a 1970s PR campaign that does not resonante in today’s world.

By the way, I would be SHOCKED if Northside won the GHSA state championship in football this year, since our team is loaded with 15 year old starters. I would be equally as shocked if Northside did not win the GHSA One Act, State Literary, or Debate state championships. That is because as the sun rises in the east, Northside wins GHSA State Championships.

Unfortunately, for schools like Lowndes County and Valdosta, you better win in football or you chances to compete on the big stage dimishes SIGNIFICANTLY. Can you imagine Lowndes County or Valdosta winning the GHSA State Literary Championship? That is laughable! It is why you guys from Valdosta hate Northside so much. We have destroyed the one dream you have of winning at the highest level of competition in this state. Football is just one of many GHSA events that Northside Eagles expect to compete in.

SouthGARules: I am serious. Find 27 GHSA State Championship trophies at Valdosta HS and Lowndes County HS since Northside High School was opened in the fall of 1963 and get back to me. That is correct. You are welcome to combine the school’s GHSA state championships together. Keep in mind that Northside HS is smaller than either Valdosta or Lowndes County.

Take the approximately 4700+ students who attend Valdosta HS and Lowndes County HS. Heck you can throw in another 4000+ from Coffee HS and Colquitt County HS. I will take the approximately 1900 students who attend Northside HS. I can find students who compete for GHSA State Championships in a variety of areas and show documentation for 27 GHSA State Championship trophies that sit at Northside High School in Warner Robins, GA

You find just 20 GHSA State Championships at Lowndes County, Valdosta HS, Coffee, and Colquitt County combined. Heck, you can even throw in Tift County HS. Let’s have this conversation, Mr. Winnersville.

Thank you SGa Rules…You are absolutely correct in ur assessment of NS!!! The chicken continues to puke at the mouth, ra ra ra ra and Ns has won only two(count em, 2) state championships since 1990!!!!!!! We are talking football here…this is a football blog right??? We dont care about how many titles Ns has won in other sports….lets stick with talking football!!! Then we must say that Ns has won a lot of games without the trophy to show for it!! True winners are never satisfied without being crowned as the best at what they do…home winning streaks aint worth a s…. without championships!!! Just a few years ago conrad nix was about to be run out of town b/c Ns had all this talent, but no state titles…it was said he couldnt win the big game. Ns has since won 2 titles(regular season and playoffs wins don’t matter) and people the weakling thinks we are gonna bow and crown Ns as the best program n the state.

eaglenationtalking: I know that you had to throw in the home winning streak (of NorthsideWR) to provide icing for the cake that is your perception of the glorious (aka OVERRATED) Northside program. Besides some punctuation and overall tact, your so eloquently stated analysis was missing another “tid-bit.” You mentioned the losses in ‘96 and ‘04, but surreptitiously evaded the “glorious” season of 2003. An undefeated regular season situated the eagles at #2 in AAAAA, between Camden Co. and Parkview (who just so happened to win the 3 previous state titles). In the second round of the playoffs, the “always physical” and talent laden eagles (led by a top QB prospect) faced the unknown Newnan Cougars at the imposing MAC. Northside’s quarterback wanted to quit football by the end of the 1st quarter, and Newnan punished the eagles relentlessly. 24-0. Don’t get caught with your pants around your ankles…you’re not big enough for those britches.

Anyone who has ever coached on any level understands the importance of having guys who have been there and done that. Hats off to Nix on being undefeated up to this point.

Yeah…I know, and Valdosta/Lowndes Co. had an enormous factory (that was part of a national chain) as its networking tool. We just breed ‘em in Newnan. God bless us. With an umbilical cord or two like the power houses from the south have had, or the expansion teams in suburbia now enjoy…Newnan might be De La Salle, or Independence, or even Oakhill basketball.

TJ: Brookwood is not dead yet. Currently they are 4-2 in the region, tied for third with Dacula. Right now they would be the #4 seed. Even if they lose to South, as long as they beat Parkview, the Broncos will be the #4 seed by virtue of beating Parkview. South will be the #2 seed unless Brookwood wins out, which would have South, Brookwood & Dacula with 6-2 records. Dacula has Berkmar & Meadowcreek left, so they should be no worse than #3 seed.
Congrats to the fighting Chuck (King) Oliver’s (Central Gwinnett) getting their first win tonight.
Demons look like the odd man out in Region 1-AAAAA. A Colquitt win over HoCo locks up the #3 seed for the Packers.

ENR, where are you now talking all your trash about Warner Robins. They went down to Colquit County tonite and got their butts spanked. You ranted and raved for paragraphs, like you always do, about how WR was gonna get on a bus and do this and that. “Get this through your heads sport fans” All that kind of CRAP that you spew every week. Dude, you really need to get a life. This is a game, played by kids, and everyone has their tradition and pride and history and so on. The fact of the matter is that it is settled every week on the field in the spirit of competition and sportsmanship. Your bantering about and your weekly recitals about how great NSWR is and how they are untouchable at the MAC is really just a display of how dismal your life really must be. Congratulations Packers, job well done. Now please ENR, shut the hell up!!!!

The fan that said that Colquitt County is good as the teams from the 90s
you are correct this team that i have been talking about is a championship caliber team; but if you are from the moultrie area then you know what I am talking about then when it comes to the Packers of
Moultrie. Colquitt County is a dangerous team ask Lowndes even though
Lowndes won; even thier coach said quote, “Colquitt is going to Surprise some people.” because the Packers ran the ball all over Lowndes but to make crucial fumbles (5) in the red zone within 5 yards
of the touchdown. So Now I think Colquitt County has now started to get back it’s respect among the elite.

ProudViking: I live in Atlanta, GA, recently rated as the top singles’ city in the United States. My Friday nights include high school football and then “socializing” on many of my weekend evenings. You may be unaware due to the fact that most restaurants are closed after the high school football games in Valdosta. In Atlanta, many social outlets are just beginning to open.

I had a wonderful opportunity to see a really good football team, maybe great team, at McEachern. I had to see a team averaging over 43 points per game in person. Since I was in Cobb County, I decided to stop by an area called Vinings, just west of Buckhead.

All of you married guys in the suburbs, please stay out there. There are homewreckers in this city. Trust me. You guys watch the high school game and go home. There are guys in the city that will represent you on the Atlanta social circuit.

ProudViking, why are you looking for me? Colquitt beat Warner Robins. OK, I overestimated the sense of urgency at Warner Robins HS. I thought that the Demons might have a little pressure with what appears to be their playoff lives on the line. I do not know what back-to-back seasons without reaching the playoffs means to Warner Robins head coach Bryan Way. Way does have a 2004 State Championship at Warner Robins. Still, the losing is piling on. The Demons still have a chance. I don’t see it though.

Dustin: The only team that could possibly outscore McEachern is Lowndes County, Stephenson, or maybe (I stress maybe) Newnan. Of course, you NEVER know what is happening down in Kingsland with Camden County. The AJC will not spread the word. Therefore, I will. Without becoming an East Paulding poster and riding someelse’s bandwagon, I do not see a team that can not regularly score 28-35 points beating the Indians. Their offense is sick.

Defense is the only question mark with the McEachern team. How they respond to playing a top tier defense in the state playoffs will be interesting. Will McEachern hang their heads if have three or four straight 3 and outs? Will the McEachern defense be able to respond consistently if they have to stay on the field? Those are questions that will be answered. However, the Indians are serious!!!

No Cobb County school has won a state championship in football since Marietta High School since 1967. There are some good teams in Cobb this year. We will see.

Warner is history unless the Cats can’t beat the worse 2 teams in the region to close out the year.

Colquit will give Northside all they want and if Northside lets Warner take to much out of their sails the previous week, then look out.

I see Northside winning the region in a close one though.

McEachern….we’ll have to wait and see what happens when they play some teams that don’t routinely give up more than 10-17 pts. a gaeme
and are used to scoring 35 plus points a game themselves.

I still doubt the McEachern defense.

Offense gets everybody excited about championships, but defense wins championships.

North Georgia I was at the Colquit/Lowndes game and we obviously saw 2 different games. But you keep on thinking what it is you want to think.

Having said that, Colquit has a fine team and any one trying to match up to them should be concerned. Travel will end up being Colquit’s achiles heel in the playoffs. After the long ride to Northside the last week they then are looking at 5 more straight weeks of 3 to 6 hour bus rides.

Unless you can pull off the Northside upset at the Mac and then who knows how the region will seed from there.

ENR, it was just a few short years ago that North Gwinnett was scoring at will also. They ran a spread offense with a farce of a quarterback that everyone in Atlanta hailed as the next Joe Montana. I kept telling Todd Holcomb and his cronies that Mikey would not be recruited by a major program and he wasn’t. Anyway, NG was the pride and joy of the metro and was scoring 40 and 50 a game until they came to the Concrete Palace. Since you are the statistical genius that you are, do you recall the result? Oh by the way, you sure have changed your tone from just a few days ago. WR this and WR that. Them Moultrie boys can play some ball too cant they!!

Give it up to the Tift Blue Devils good effort……..In the first half Tift looked as if they were the #2 team in the State…….I didn’t have good feelings on the way down to Tift , Northside’s history in Tifton is just as bad or worst than in Valdosta ………The young Eagles showed up in the first half making mistakes…… In the second half they started playing Northside football and pulled it out……It only cost me about 5 years worth of aging during the first half , but I was very satisfied the way the Eagles bounced back in the second half……good win on Green street………….Northside cannot open up next week against the Demons or the week after against the Packers the way we opened up in Tifton………Colquitt has a defense now , we all might be in trouble.

Sorry if this winds up being a double post but it hasn’t shown up yet.

SERIOUS GRAYSON HATER, were you at the game? Didn’t think so. I was and Coach Conn did everything he could short of just handing Meadowcreek the ball on every Grayson possesion. With all due respect for the Meadowcreek players for doing the best they can, it is a crying shame about their program. For a 5A school, it looked like they were lucky to field 30 players – some of whom were so small they had to be freshmen. There were maybe 50 people on the Meadowcreek side of the stadium. The band came out and while small was awesome! Long and short, there just doesn’t seem to be a lot of support for football and I agree that it is time to look at moving them down in classification until they can bring the program back. It is just not fair to the kids playing their heart out.

Grayson never punted. We turned the ball over on downs to give them a shot. 2nd string was in and playing midway through the 2nd quarter. It was raining off and on all night and yet I always saw Grayson players with clean uniforms coming in. That says they were definately not starters and had not been in the game. None of us in the stands could understand why the running clock was not in effect in the 3rd quarter. Are we just supposed to tell our kids not to try? Even the 2nd and 3rd string? Ean Pemberton had his jersey and pads off with 4-5 minutes still to go in the 2nd period. Our big defensive players were standing on the steps to watch instead on playing. On kickoffs, our kicker who consistantly kicks them 5 yards deep in the end zone was taking 3 steps and kicking to about the Meadowcreek 35. He is stong enough that on the first PAT, he kicked it over the net in the endzone and bounced it over the top of the fieldhouse into the parking lot on the far side of the building! It could have easily been 100 – 0 had Coach Conn wanted it to be.

Meadowcreek had several players going both ways out of necessity. I point all of the above out not to trash talk them but just to point out that #1, Grayson tried hard not to run the score up and #2, Meadowcreek in their current state does not need to be in 5A. Nothing is accomplished in having the kids come out and do the best they can and have these kinds of results.

Lets put McEacherns most likely playoff run to the state championship into perspective.

1st round – 4th seed region 8
2nd round – loser of North Gwinnett/Peachtree Ridge
3rd round – winner of Lowndes/Camden
4th round – winner of Newnan/Grayson
State Championship – winner of Northside/North Gwinnett/Colquit/Stephenson

Good luck McEachern because you will be facing a gauntlet of teams
that do know how to play defense and can run with your offense
and will hit you in the mouth and make you think twice before you
attempt to catch the next pass.

And most of them play just a little offense too and are very capable of putting up some serious points themselves.

@SERIOUS GRAYSON HATER – I have tried twice with somewhat lengthy explainations for the score but they did not get through for some reason. I’ll make it short and say that Grayson did everything short of coming off the field totaly to keep the score down. The Meadowcreek kids just couldn’t keep up. The program really needs to get some help. It is a shame that a 5A school cannot generate more interest in the football program.

(2) #20 who punished the Stephenson defense the entire 1st half did not touch the ball much in the 2nd half. (3) The coach wanted the parents to stay away from practice because he did not want them to distract the kids because this was such a big game and he wanted them to be focused – FOCUSED NOW COACH? (4) We made no adjustments at half time and went back to the idiotic play calling that we have done all season that these talented young men have had to play through. (5) We did not open up the playbook like the boys were told because????????????? WHO KNOWS BUT THE COACH!! These kids deserved better than this from their coach and was absolutely FAILED by him and there should be some consequences behind this incompetence.

To all the Union Grove fans sorry that parents and boosters can’t make play decisions. Of course you all have some good athletes, but it all boils down to the coaches trying to please your kids when they play football. Yes no.5 No. 20. No. 71. No. 63 they are good players along with some who didn’t play in the game against Stephenson, but the fact of the matter until you let those African Americans players play at some of those skills positions and not let your personal feelings come into play and say (my son deserve to be out there), then Union Groove will always be a second or third tier team. Face it Union Grove your team is only going to be as good as your players and coaches. If I were the coach, I would put in more plays for No.5 and No. 20 and not worry about you parents because you want a balance of both blacks & whites on the field and you don’t want to blacks kids to get more publicity than white kids. you all don’t want to hear it buts it’s the truth and whether you like it or not just ask some of players on the team.

Take black and white out of this, bottom line is that our play makers are #5, #20 and #4. I agree that we needed to throw the ball some to loosen up their defense but we needed to pound them with our running game and we didn’t.

UNION GROVE, yall are the sorest losers I have seen. You lost ONE GAME, to a better STEPH team, suck it up. Improve as a team. Looks like UG’S parents and fans need more improvement than the football team. Yall are taking harder than they are.

It is pretty laughable that UG fans would be ragging on Stephenson. Yes, Stephenson has not won a state championship, but they are several million like years ahead of Union Grove. Whatever UG says, they will always be a bottom-feeder. Regardless, I am sure more coaches in the state would rather not play SWD, Stephenson or MLK in the playoffs than Union WHO? Look at Stephenson, SWD and MLK’s playoff losses and they are definitely not against no names. JUST face it, Union WHO? has never beaten any one of these teams, and from the looks of it, probably never will. It is amazing that these teams can come into the season and garner respect from coaches and media poll, while Union WHO? has to wait until they play one of these schools before they are rightfully declared no good. Union WHO?, you had your 48 minutes of fame for this season, give it up and worry about Newton, and avoiding a loooooooooong, and embarrassing trip to Camden County. While there is no football championship banner at Stephenson, there are some track and field and basketball hardware in the trophy case. Union Who? show us yours.

Just get along…You are absolutely correct. It’s just a little trash talk. Union Grove is a fine school with high character kids both on and off the field. I went to school at Stephenson and now live in Henry County. I was at the game Saturday night as a football fan. UG kids played their hearts out and have nothing to hang their heads about. At the end of the day its only one loss. I know they have put it behind them and will be ready to play Friday night. UG is a quality program.

AJC SPORTS, I must take the side of my estranged brother “YO” in asking about all of the political correctness here in 2009 GHS football. Sometimes politics play a HUGE role in the outcome of games in GHS football. Take the officials in GHS football as an example.I wish someone here would take the time to explain to me how home grown officiating is tolerated by the GHSA. Transfers as well. I believe these are valid points of concern and yet the GHSA seems spineless in becoming proactive in addressing these issues. What about “wrong calls” by the officials resulting in a suspension of a player not only for the game at hand, but for the following week as well? Has any wrong call by an official EVER been over-turned on appeal? I don’t think so. This post is about GHS football politics, not politics in general. Hope you will post it and hope I will get some legitimate responses.

Slalom1: I know of two times where the GHSA has overturned an officials call. One happened a couple years ago with either Norcross or Dacula (not sure which one, but know it involved one of the Maloof brothers). Forget the details, but I know a few minutes of the game had to be replayed. The first time I know of was in the 1975 state semifinals involving Lakeside-DeKalb and Douglass. Again, forgot the complete details, but GHSA ruled that a few seconds of that game had to replayed because of officials error. If Todd Holcomb is reading, please refresh my memory on that one. That Douglass-Lakeside game is still a sour spot for many that were associated with that program back then.

I’m glad that I will only have to sit through 2 more games of Crews, McClane and the rest of those sorry coaches mistakes. I have supported that program since i coached those senior when they were in the 6 grade and now i will never coach a BROOKWOOD team again. I’ve had enough. I sent them to the high school as winner and Crews made those kids loser. They don’t have any emotion nor fight or will to want to win. I remembered when those kids loved to play football and look what happen. He’s lost 75% of the kids that started out as GFL youth players in the 6 grade. What happened to them? What coach can’t keep at least 50% of his player? Why are there only 22 seniors left to an 8th grade class that was over a 100 in the 8th grade. Brookwood Mom, i’m sorry I offended you but did you see the game? How do you continue to make the same mistakes because of you arrogance. We all know the kid in the quarterback positin can’t quarterback and most of his receiver have to make spectacular catches to make him look good. His best passes have been to the other team’s players. How do you give someone something that he didn’t compete for? Sad thing is that because of that, those coaches son’s will sit on someone bench there entire college career if they make a team. PS. I tried to get my son to go to South but he chose to stay at Brookwood. I will support him but for the money I have invested in that program I will say what i ……. well please…….

Hiram should get alot more attention than they do right now. Everyone shoots them down. Before the Hillgrove game, they said that Hiram hasnt played anybody and struggled with bad teams. They beat Hillgrove Friday and are now 8-0 and still under the radar. Dont understand it.

@ 31.

Trust me. Hiram isnt going to get any kinda respect until they go deep into the playoffs. The way the AJC rates teams is by their history. Lets take Camden County 4 example ( I so love this team btw). If they had never won any state championships, or been ranked nationally b4, or gotten farther than the 1st round of the playoffs, but wins their division every year, they would not be looked at because of their region opponents. Im not 100 perrcent sure on who is in your region, but it might be that your region isnt that strong. Dnt quote me on it though

i think thats the reason that u guys arent ranked. Its probably nothing personal, but I think the AJC staff is trying to wait until the playoffs to see how u guys do before they make any rankings. Go deep into the playoffs and next year u will probably be ranked.. if not then they are not goin to give u the respect tht u deserve

Paulding County High School.

Close your visitor seating section for Friday’s Game. Hillgrove High School would not offer your fans a decent place to sit if you were away.
TREAT HILLGROVE WHEN THEY TRAVEL THE SAME WAY THEY TRAT OTHERS THAT TRAVEL TO THEIR SCHOOL.
