Rocky Mount head coach B.W. Holt has been pretty busy lately, despite not having to get his team ready for the state finals.
Holt was in Bowling Green, Ky. late last week visiting his grandaughter (Maggie) and her family (son Stu is running backs coach at Western Kentucky), then he flew back to North Carolina Friday night.
He drove to Winston-Salem Saturday morning to see the 3-A and 3-AA state title games, then Sunday, he and wife Barbara will be in Charlotte for the Carolina Panthers' game with the Denver Broncos (they are season ticket holders).
While Barbara will head back to Rocky Mount, Holt will travel down I-85 to check out his player Whit Barnes and the N.C. team at the Shrine Bowl of the Carolinas game practices. Holt and N.C. head coach Gary Fowler (Clayton) go way back, he says.
Then he will return to RM later in the week for his school duties - including a meeting of the NEW 6 football coaches to vote on the All-Conference team (look for the release of that team Friday - right here on this blog!)
Then it's back to Spartanburg Saturday for the Shrine Bowl game at Wofford College.
This man, at age 64, has more energy than I had at age 14!
Seeing the price of gas drop to sub-$1.60 a gallon levels doesn't hurt either!
