Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 Is Bronco still the right man to take the team forward or whatever you said earlier this year? His use of the 2-3 QB platoon today was masterful I think he can be. But I think he has a problem connecting to his players. He doesn't have a team full of 24-year-old Samoans with wives and kids. I think he is intelligent enough to see the disconnect, but can he adapt. You don't win 99 games in 11 years by being a bad coach. But can he right the ship in time? I understand the platoon rationale as articulated by Mendenhall, but you have to settle on the best package to achieve the desired results, and that was Benkert.

LongTimeSWVAFan 36 Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 Pretty sad when Wise County has one radio station and they can't even get their stream to work right for a state quarterfinal game. Of course this is the same outfit that wouldn't cover Union in the girl's state basketball championship game last year. Par for the course. No wonder, I never listen to that station.

BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 Omfg Appo had to punt!!!!!!! Apparently on VAPreps, they were shocked if Appo even had to punt. 7-0 Appo after one, should be 7-7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick_Vitale 342 Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 Something I have just realized this year... Good sports commentary is tough to find. WAXM is rough currently and the Appo stream sounds like it is their coaching staff talking about the game... completely Appo biased. Rightfully so, but I just want someone to merely call the game as they see it. But then again the United States cannot even get a news network to do that on television.

sup_rbeast 296 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 Never thought I'd say I preferred WAXM's announcers to anyone...then I heard Appomattox's radio announcers. Can't make heads or tails about the game listening to that mess. SMH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't make heads or tails about the game listening to that mess. SMH I concur! Both are rough feeds but better than nothing. I just do not understand the idea of just getting anyone to call these games. I can imagine they have a decent listening base currently and not making the best of it (waxm at least). Can they not find an old ball coach somewhere to call it? I am okay with the biased calling to an extent. Probably the best feed I have listened to is WGTH out of Richlands.

Listening to the Appo announcers is about like listening to a NASCAR driver do a post race interview...nothing but endorsements and advertisements. It's pitiful when they tell you tge ball was ran up the middle..then endirse a couple businesses...and never tell you the result of the play. Drove me to cutting it off lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWVAgridiron 1,469 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 Appo is the real deal. Of the teams left, Richlands has the greatest chance IMO. Appo has much more talent than Richlands but coaching will be key IF they meet up at state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hokiebird7 1,416 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 Richlands has the best chance to beat them but will be tough but they have a small chance because of their offense I told people last night that appo would beat Graham by 30+ if not more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick_Vitale 342 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 Best chance of beating Appo? Has anyone seen anything the East has to offer? I vaguely remember Union rolling into Clarke County pretty confident last year and went back down 81 pretty upset. My take, there are 4 teams left in the state in 2A football... They all 4 got a good chance at winning the whole thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawgs4Life 11 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 First of all congratulations to the Union Bears on another good season and playoff run. Nothing to be ashamed of so hold your heads up high! Plenty of teams sitting at home that would have loved to play late into November. Sounded like Appo just had too much speed but can that be contained. Yes and I'm all in on Richlands bringing the trophy back down this way. No one is talking about Goochland and when I saw they were back in the picture this year, I said they would be the team coming out of the east. After all they were state champs in 2012, so I imagine they're just as hungry. Anyway the best 4 are remaining and Richlands will represent in the state game especially if Stuarts Draft is still running the single wing.

Hokiebird7 1,416 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 What's wrong with running the single wing? Giles ran it in 2013 and put almost 50 in Richlands Can you not win anything big running this offense or something? Just kidding blues fans in rooting for you guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawgs4Life 11 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 Lol...I just despise it. It just seems so dated, but if that fits your players then do what you do! And I'm an old Appy Bulldog pulling for Richlands now that Union is gone. Ryan4VT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
