GC_Quincy 582 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 That's pretty generous with GC. Too many question marks at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swva_havok_fan 1,259 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 I'm assuming this just takes into consideration the deep SWVa teams? Even if so, I would take being 7th best among your list SWVAFB. Especially since you have us ahead of Wise Central and Lee High. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trumpet1988 289 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 I can agree with Union's spot. Richlands is probably in the right spot. Gate City still has some question marks, as Quincy said. They should be better. I don't know that they will be normal GC right off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SXSW 557 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 I think Gate City may be a much better team than last season, but the murders row schedule they play may keep the record down. Everybody else looks spot on. Will the Blue's get over the hump and beat Union if they don't do it this year they may never do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West12aaa 99 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 Am I the only one delusional in thinking Abingdon might be the best at the moment? Excellent qb as a leader and the strides the coaching staff has made to build an excellent summer program (one previous coaches are surprised about, straight from a assistant mouth) Abingdon Graham Richlands Union Giles Gate city Wise Ridgeview Galax Virginia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futbolking 766 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 Giles will still be pretty good I bet. Young but still some talent coming up. Giles is always competitive, even in a down year. They are so well coached and very hard to defend. Bigrhsfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widespread_Panic 197 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 Am I the only one delusional in thinking Abingdon might be the best at the moment? Excellent qb as a leader and the strides the coaching staff has made to build an excellent summer program (one previous coaches are surprised about, straight from a assistant mouth) The problem with Abingdon is they don't play defense. They can score but they can't stop anyone because they are a finesse team. Losing Derrick Yates to graduation will hurt them. He scored a majority of their TDs and he created mismatch problems with his size and speed. The Falcons will still be good but unless the D has made strides they won't be able to beat Richlands.

Falcon Mania 235 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 The problem with Abingdon is they don't play defense. They can score but they can't stop anyone because they are a finesse team. Losing Derrick Yates to graduation will hurt them. He scored a majority of their TDs and he created mismatch problems with his size and speed. The Falcons will still be good but unless the D has made strides they won't be able to beat Richlands. There may be a lot of surprises this season. Abingdon has 23 seniors and very high numbers of juniors and sophomores. If you hadn't noticed yet, This isn't the Abingdon of 5 or 10 years ago. There is a new culture and drive with the Falcons. They return 16 starters from last season. Losing Derrick Yates to graduation is big but they are very deep at WR. Likewise, from what Ive seen at the 7on7, they will be fine.

swva_havok_fan 1,259 Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 The huge issue with Abingdon is their 80% 2A schedule being a 3A team kills them in the power points. It's not their fault, they're geographically challenged being the only 3A school west of Christiansburg. But, Abingdon is put in the situation of having to run the table every season just to get a favorable playoff seed. Not easy to do playing in a tough 2A conference that boasts Richlands and Graham.

1inStripes 932 Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 Abingdon is going to be forced to look across state lines I would think to help their power point potential going forward. I wouldnt be surprised to see them try to add Volunteer with Barry Jones coaching there now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leatherhead Larry 530 Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 Abingdon is going to be forced to look across state lines I would think to help their power point potential going forward. I wouldnt be surprised to see them try to add Volunteer with Barry Jones coaching there now. Jones probably won't be there much longer, especially with a subpar season this year. From what I understand from a few co-workers he's not very well liked in the Church Hill area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
