It was named SC Prep Football and was run by Bob as a full-time website with the very first message boards ever.

I found the site during the 2nd week it had been opened when out of town in Los Angeles and looking for Friday night scores from back home. Bob and I became friends and eventually, he asked me to start working on the site. Believe it or not, we used to average between 5000 and 8000 people on the site every Friday night looking for scores and posting on the message boards. We often had over 10,000 posts a week and over 40K unique visitors.

Bob passed away during the playoffs in 2001 and SC Prep moved on with him. His family let the site close and I never knew why they made the decision. Bob was from Myrtle Beach and was semi-retired. He ran the best site and provided daily updates and posted new stories and profiles every day during the season. He had an amazing work ethic and developed an amazing site. He passed at his computer uploading scores during the first round of the 2001 playoffs.

I started SC Pigskin Prep the following day to keep the community alive and to finish the season. For the next 8 seasons, I ran SCPP before selling the site to the Spartanburg Herald-Journal and Go Upstate. I left the site in 2009 and take no responsibility for the dumpster fire the site became after that.

The oldest posters I can remember back in 1994 when all this started was:
StumpDog / Mark Jeffcoat - Stratford
EarlDaPearl - Ran Palmetto Preps eventually
Full Choke - Dorman
Fly Guy - The SC State Department for the Mentally Challenged
BearcatinOk - RIP
BigGaffneyIndian and all the other posters from Gaffney
Gerald Doolittle
There were a ton of Marlboro County guys
There was also a bunch of others who have since passed on.

25 years is a long time and there have been some amazing guys here over the years. Hard to believe it has been a quarter of a century.
Man, I remember those days, I was just out of college and looking on the web for a place to talk High School football, Stratford and Summerville were on top back then for a couple years.. It was fun and we knew the Upstate would return to glory soon.. Kinda like how I feel about it right now.. only a matter of time!

I have been here since it's inception. I haven't posted a whole lot because of health issues. I am glad to say that my health was improving greatly until these guys allowed cityslacker to come on board. Now I feel sick to my stomach all of the time. :lol:
You haven’t posted cause Beaufort sux and can’t beat anyone above 3AAA!!! :lol:

I'm not on the list because I'm not old.


I'd like to know just how many folks I've met through High School Football and the boards. I couldn't list everyone and I'd be hard pressed to even remember all the ones that I've watched a game with. Some of the ones I can remember right now:

Beaufort:
Grammy (Still talk to on Facebook) who had moved back home with her husband, who has now passed. RIP Art.
BEF who has to be one of the most devoted fans here
Penguin and his better half

At Scummerville as Slicker calls it
GoBigGreen, who introduced me to Perfectly Franks
Wave80 and since they were playing Burkly, even Slicker was there, I even gave him some Beef Jerkey

Gaffney has a list all of their own:
No way to list them all, but mikey and Chief O, Chief Whoa, and that short rascal that I can't remember right now, someone help me here? Kevin?

I don't remember racin cowboy? Have we met?

Who was the the guy who worked with the chain gang?

I know there are other chiefs as well.

Then there is that crazy rascal from Dorman, DeCav.

And there are many others as well......

:roll:
