Hillcrest isn't fielding a team at all (seven coaches in seven years is a sure-fire way to kill a program) and Hebron Christian is back at it. 

Hillcrest's football program is the best example of a slow and painful death to a football program. Even historically, they never had a coach last more than four years. There was I believe a point in 08 when the rumor was that they were going to shut the program down, and just play basketball (the days of Hartzog and Ezi)

This also shows how recruiting can hurt a MAIS school. Greenville Christian University will eventually suffer the same fate.

Well recruiting sure, but I think a bigger problem with Hillcrest is the overall dilapidation of that area of South Jackson. Hillcrest had been bad at football, at least since around 2007 ish. 

 

Talking about Greenville Christian, that was a team that sadly got the success they did due to the COVID-imposed public school shutdowns. However, I can see the publicity the school has gotten in local and even national media; to maybe help them garner some attention.

MRA vs Greenville Christian has been scheduled. I don’t know if Greenville has a new batch of recruits because they only have 13 returning players on their team.

GCS has been hitting the recruiting trail hard. Tried pulling kids from Holmes County Central but had no success there. More so successful with delta schools.

Over an hour drive from Lexington to GCS. Any doubt why they had no success?

GCS will get boatraced by MRA this year. They lost a ton and don’t seem to have it coming in like they did with nearly an entire team going due to covid. As far as Hillcrest goes, what was once a proud program in all sports is barely able to field a team. Early 2000’s they were really good and at least competing with Prep and JA. Now they’ve gone down multiple classifications and have literally only won 17 games in the last decade. 17 games over 10 years.

And Marcus Rogers is a far better coach than any of the GCS guys. He’s one of the best in the state and has had a relationship with the guys he’s got now after being there for the past 4-5 years. The man took over a 2 win team and instantly made Holmes County contenders.

With Hillcrest the main issue has been the mass migration of people from that South Jackson area. People were starting to leave Hillcrest closer to 07-08 which was when you began to see the MRA, Prep and JA teams accelerate past them.
