Girls & women need to refuse to compete!

Update: Tazewell had a skid steer show up at the field this week. It still hasn’t done anything, but it’s there. Still no work started.

This is insane and what’s wrong with sports right now you got kids quit because someone gets a job. People do not realize how hard it is to find coaches period! And we want to quit because someone is on staff. You already had one head coach step down because the star player wanted threatened to leave. It’s stupid back in the day your coach was your coach and you listened and got coached by him. If you didn’t like them you suck it up and play because of your teammates and love for the sport. And parents didn’t let them quit either

If it’s his son and the kid threw his helmet down, then I’m sitting out the crucify him mentality . If it’s not his kid then that changes the dynamics of the situation considerably.

He’s a prick, always has been

Coaches coach!!! Players play!!! Parents shut the hell up and enjoy watching your kid!!!

That's definitely not his son. Doesn't matter if it is or not. No place for a coach to put his hands on a player.

Well there are two teams close to each other that should be in class 2 and not 1...

Wait what coach got threatened ? I think people are burnt out on the mccamis family. I guess that's the Isaiah they are talking about. Kids only get 4 yrs in high school. A lot more activities to do these day beside deal with one families involvement in everything

There are going to be two duck ponds at the Graham location for the drainage. It shouldn’t impact the homes across the street or cause any runoff affecting properties in the area.

Richlands 8/17 - Princeton (scrimmage) 8/22 - Grundy (benefit) 8/30 - at Gate City 9/6 - Union 9/13 - Tazewell 9/20 - at Abingdon 9/27 - Lebanon 10/4 - at Ridgeview 10/18 - at Virginia 10/25 - Galax 11/1 - Marion 11/8 - at Graham

Never noticed that, thanks!!

This entire incident could have been avoided if the VHS coach wouldn't have ran to home like a crazy person. His runner was clearly out and he (the coach) should have been immediately ejected for his actions.

When the runner was still on the ground he appears to try and throw a right hook. Not a single Lebanon player left the bench or retaliated so yes there is no Lebanon players at fault

This has become a huge problem for Lee High basketball. There are some talented kids at Lee but have not been playing because of the coach. I was never a fan of the past coach but if one truly loves the sport it should not matter who the coach is.

It’s easy for us to say coach/player situation not father/son looking as someone not part of the dynamic. If you’ve coached your own kid at the high school level and always maintained coach/player mindset in every circumstance , then kudos to you but I’d say that’s harder said than done. All the coaches I know that have coached their own kids expect more from their kid and are harder on them. I’m not saying it’s fair to the kid but it is what it is.

This 👆 100%, maybe post of the year! Parents listen

Yes his oldest is Porter (junior) and then Palmer (freshman) he has a younger son but I can’t remember his name

everyone that has been arguing with me for years abt this can no longer say that gobble isnt a piece of crap. He’s been like this ever since his oldest son started travel ball. Glad to see that everyone is finally opening their eyes

Doesn't matter if it's his son or not. The coach is WAY out of line and should be unemployed, and possibly unemployable as a coach going forward. I had to testify in court in a similar incident 15 or so years ago. Coach/dad beat the crap out of his catcher/son in the dugout between innings after the catcher attempted a pick-off on 3rd and airmailed the ball into left field allowing two runs to score. I was the plate umpire. Mama bear had coach/dad on the ground begging for his life before we even realized anything was going on. Coach/dad was arrested on the spot. The moral of the story, you cannot, under any circumstances, put hands on a kid!

What percentage of McDowell County kids does the VHSL count as the future Tazewell County population?

According to the article he had only been teaching and coach one year at wise and maybe one year overall I don’t think he was a coordinator I could be wrong. Nothing against the guy I hope he does well but it looks like they had to promote from within because there wasn’t any teaching job open. That usually makes it tough on a school to hire when the head coach steps down but is still teaching. If you are gonna have a multi state search you gotta have a teaching job open

Totally off topic here but a little nostalgia hit me on my recent week long trip to Indiana and not just the visit to the Knightstown gym where Hoosiers was filmed. In the 4A state high school basketball championship game, Fishers High School were victorious. Fishers are the Tigers, and their uniforms are red and white. It was good to see a group of Red Tigers win a state title in person, even if it wasn't our old alma mater. 🙂

LOL my bad

To quote a wise man, "Tom Turner has more coaching knowledge in his chaw spit than your head coach."

Traditional regional boundaries, at least as far as D/C have been moving East for some time. As Far SWVA continues to lose population that will continue, consolidation won't change that

That will become 13/13 when (if) Grundy's new school opens, so nothing needs changed.

Wow I didn’t know they had him for another year. However it is hard to build a team around one great lineman. Easier to do with a great skill player

Appalachia is the power we keep overlooking. It's a machine.

Smart choice in my opinion, but that's looking at it from the outside. Each person and situation is different and unique and there is no one size fits all. Kid's a baller and from watching him a few times, tough as nails.

That would be a really big back yard.

But I don't judge. I never miss a PBA telecast and I know that most people would rather watch grass grow in Antartica than ever watch bowling on TV haha. So I get it.

Yeah that’s what it seems like, family simply moved and she is going somewhere else. Kinda refreshing tbh, an athlete moving for no nefarious or self-centered reason.

My son , Brock Alley (Tazewell) committed to Ferrum College on Wednesday evening

Where in that play did you see a kid throw a punch? Not one punch was remotely thrown? Not one Lebanon player at fault is completely laughable!

But... If you don't teach, you can recruit outside of the school.
