-Move up from 2A to 4A Ball, more prestige. Prove yourself on a higher level.
-Salary- The data that I have from 2016 shows that Kevin Crosby was making in the $68,000 range at Bamberg-Ehrhardt, while the Head Coach at Orangeburg-Wilkinson was making in the $78,000 range.
-$78,299.00 Tommy Brown Head Football Coach Orangeburg County School District Five, Orangeburg-Wilkinson High 2016-08-15
-$68,000.00 Kevin “Butch”″ Crosby” Football Coach Bamberg School District One, Bamberg Ehrhardt High School 2016-08-15
Crosby could be getting somewhere in the neighborhood of a $10,000 per year pay raise.

I just remember back in the old 4A days that OW was a decent program that you met in the playoffs and they were pretty good
