Been a lot of fun watching the West All Star Seniors practice this week at Honaker. Having Richlands, Union, Hurley and Honaker guys...mixed with Ridgeview and others is quite a sight! Players been trading helmet stickers. Coach Colley former great coach of Haysi is an offensive wiz! Should be a great game versus the East All Stars this Sat at Emory!

I don't think it would have been this year. NET had a good run of talent those years. It's a shame VA is scared to play TN.

Even in a bad NET year, their floor is just barely below SWVAs ceiling. The biggest town in SWVA is Abingdon. The biggest schools in NET like Science Hill and Dobyns-Bennett and Elizabethton and such are huge schools that double the biggest school on SWVA and probably triple and maybe quadruple the others. The enrollment gap is just too much for that game to be consistently competitive.

I too would prefer to see the VA-TN game return. I agree with the slaughter comment in relation to past results but you would think that would have to turn around at some point. Man up! The best TN players often did not play in the FCA game anyway because if they were picked for the TN East-West game or the TN-KY All-Star game then they generally didn't play in the FCA game. I totally disagree with an "enrollment gap" having anything to do with past results. The only really BIG schools are actually D-B and Science Hill (Elizabethton is somewhere between 700 to 800 students). I don't think that an enrollment gap means much anyway to a game of this format because aren't there usually only 4 or 5 students at the most represented from each school?

Enrollment has a lot to do with it. You can pick four kids from a school of 300 (Honaker) and a school of 800 (Elizabethton) and you have a sizable difference in the talent pool you get to choose from. Elizabethton has more students than 80% of the schools it would face in this all star game.

 

As for it turning around at some point, of course VA would win one eventually. That's the law of the game. You can't win them all. But, this game would/will never be consistently competitive like the current East/West format is.

 

Just my two cents.

I think at least one of the games was decided by only a touchdown but it might not be consistently competitive as you said. It definitely isn't a head to head (school to school) completion though. The TN roster only comes from Sullivan, Hawkins, Johnson, Washington, Greene, and Carter counties in TN. The VA roster covers a much wider geographic area so that is why I think a competitive squad could be assembled. I think the biggest difference is in the preparation programs that seem to be more prevalent on the TN side. Year round weight programs, speed coaches, youth football programs, and things like that are more easily supported in a more urban setting. That stuff makes a difference.

Tn puts more money in to their sports, much like kentucky. VA sports help ends at Roanoke much like everything else.

It isn't really the government. Only the city schools really get any extra municipal money. All the county schools get is what the parents are willing to support. Some schools do a real good job with that. My kids have been blessed to go to a county school with a really involved parent base and supportive community organizations. That made a tremendous difference in sports, band, and all sorts of extracurricular activities. We did lots of the field maintenance and painting, lots of stadium maintenance, expanded the weight training building and all that. The county stopped with what they built 35 years ago.

would you say indirectly, the overall neglect by richmond, would play a factor? i.e. Virginia doesn't distribute their stimulus money as widely as tn or ky? Fishing for other opinions.

You need another bite at that apple.

 

Try again.

Huh? I honestly don't have a clue as to what you are talking about. All I can tell you is that in TN each student in a county is counted and a given amount of money is transferred to the county from the state for that amount of students. The county sets a tax rate that adds any local school spending on top of that and if there are any cities in the county that run their own school system then those systems get their portion of the county total according to the fraction of the students attending those independent city systems. Then the cities have their own taxing authority so they add whatever they want on top of the state/county funding that they have received. That is what I was conveying about the city schools having extra resources. In regards to football, the county mowed the field occasionally and painted it maybe once per year. We had parents conditioning the field, touching up the paint weekly, etc. All the nice stuff was funded by parent fund raising and volunteer labor. It was very apparent if you looked at our facilities then drove 10 miles and looked at another county facility (similar sized) that had the same government funding and demographics but less parental support.
