Well it appears things are finally getting better in Gov land. The Governors are coming off a 6-4 season.. First winning season in over a decade.

Big shoes to fill at QB and know one that is good and looking for a new home this next season and if he is smart WB would be the perfect home and situation for him and them.

They played a weak schedule & got their #### handed to them by good teams

It’s probably time to give that AD in LA some credit. Huge improvement in the direction of the football program finishing 2nd in the county and the boys hoops team is tops in the county with eyes on the state tourney. If they can get a little more out of the spring guys, it will be a complete 180. Congrats to that guy!

 I will be the first to admit, I had them going 1-9 last season especially how that Mo East game went down in 2022. I realize they had a very soft schedule but actually that was a good thing because those kids would never buy in if they were thrown in the cage with the likes of a Bearden  and Bradley and a couple more teams. This is one of those situations where enrollment should be thrown out the window because it's harder fielding a football team when some of your kids live far out as Tallahassee and Six Mile. You almost have to throw those numbers away and use common sense which the TSSAA has none at all.

They scored a ton of points in their losses. 

Thay just couldn't stop anyone or anything.

The Govs are much better off than the other end of town. They had there chance but no one is going to transfer and play for that guy and that was their opportunity to build something descent but that time has passed and they are going to be 3-7,4-6 at best. Robert has still got a chance to grow and improve from year to year the other guy not so much

Concur. 

They only have one football at Murvul and one at Alcoee. 

WB is a buy, Eagleton is a hold and A&M is a sell at this point.

Both teams are no better than the other. 29-28 will tell you that. Their both getting better and towards the end Heritage played a hand full of freshmen and was actually playing better by seasons end. The only knock on Heritage is how long will the coach stay. The big knock on WB will be replacing a real athlete that played QB-DB and Punter and very good at each position. Just very thankful both teams are out of the dumpster fire zone and stay that way.

Agree. Reeves is committed, building this program the right way and a good fit with the school and community. They may never be a championship team in 6A but they can be competitive and a program the school can be proud of.  On the other hand the hype at Heritage has died as players, parents, and the community have seen through all the self promotion and realized who the coach really is. They’re left trying to move ahead while the prospect of their coach taking his big ego and moving on hangs over the program. Almost no one I know connected to the program really expects him to stay.
