is it time for Central to change to Wise Central?

Only one I know of in this part of Virginia at least, maybe one other in the entire state and I know of a Central High in Memphis TN. It's really not a problem at all, having the same mascots is more confusing(blue devils vs. blue devils) then having one part of a name that's in another name such as Central/Sullivan Central, not that confusing or a problem...not heard of any complaints of confusion at all. Reagardless, it was clearly in the rules to not have a town name in the new names, that's the most obvious breaking of that rule and the entire reason it IS Central and not Wise/WC Central as originally proposed.

It will be changed within 2 years. Hang onto this thread and revisit it in that time. Steak dinner goes to the winner

I just said that exact same thing earlier, that's why the exception was made, it was no problem.

Might as well give me the steak now

, because I have personally asked Dr. Perry that very question and was told that these same names will be on those new schools.

You think Perry will be here another 2 years?

His contract is for the next 3 years, I definitely think he will be.

Basham had a contract too and the SB bought it out. I would say if the election goes the way most everyone, but you, thinks it will, then come January when the new board is "seated" he will go and go a lot richer man. I actually think he has done a decent job, too. At least no worse than any others. In any case, if he does get the "axe" who will they appoint to take his place in the "interim".

okay.. I didn't realize who they had played this week.
Serioulsy, if I'd heard CYB say Sullivan North beat Central 49-22, I would NOT have thought Wise's Central.
