It’s proven to work and keeps Cronk on the defensive side of the ball.

I mean he did for 20 years or so before and they were...I'd say pretty darn good. He can call both sides. I am very happy for Scott and his family! Great people.

That hit was by North Central's very own, Nick Wheeler. I forgot about that, anything besides a broken femur was going to stop him from playing the next week. T-Law and hurdles were some dirty DB's and they will tell you they were lol Talk about a good coaching staff. Edited December 19, 2025 by BillyBettis ignorance

Jacob Earl is the GOAT, period. Lucy is right, he’d smoke Coach Stephanie White in 1v1. All I’m saying is that whoever ends up landing Earl is winning the WRC jackpot. His skills as a coach rival those of Coach King. Who knows, maybe 40 years from now we’ll look back on his track record and he’ll be the rebuilder of broken WRC football programs. I wonder how much he learned from Herb in the 3 years they coached together. Edited December 23, 2025 by JacobAllen24

But you cannot deny that Herb helped turn around program after program. On top of that, his fingerprints are all over when you look at his coaching tree, the guys he coached and coach with are everywhere! Has any other coach made the impact in as many WRC schools as Herb? Covington, Rockville, Seeger, Fountain Central, and that's direct impact, not to mention the impact through guys he mentored. Earl is on track to make the same kind of impact through his career. It'll be exciting to see what he can accomplish. Maybe you think I'm naive because I said Earl is the GOAT. Maybe it's naiveté, maybe it's bias, but I said what I said. Also, you're right, you left a lot of legendary WRC athletes off your list.

JacobAllen24 Posted December 24, 2025 Posted December 24, 2025 Curiosity is also begging the question: Did Crabtree and King consult with each other before these most recent moves? Both leaving blue to go green, and both going to 0-10 3A schools with historically bad programs. Maybe this move will finally settle the debate of which one is the better coach.

Coach King doesn’t have to consult with anyone about his moves. Does what he wants when he wants. I’m not sure what debate you’re talking about? I don’t think there’s anything to debate.
