RCITYHOO 110 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Cole is a good size kid with decent speed. Tech is talking about tight end or H back (if that's a correct position). He was 2nd team all state QB so he's no average Joe. Good talent who could easily carry another 40 to 50 lbs. Don't count this kid out just yet. sixcat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blaker has the height and athletic ability, he just needs some weight and coaching. He may never step on the field but counting him out already because he's a walk on seems a little harsh coming from the fan base of a school that had a former walk on named second team all-American this year.

cityofRaven 2,443 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Lee's Rasnic to Pikeville... https://mobile.twitter.com/Hayes_BHCSports/status/824704394373566464 I'm really surprised that more SWVA kids don't end up at Pikeville, Union, and schools in Eastern Kentucky.

GoBearsGo 142 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 I agree but I don't know that those schools recruit very heavy in SWVA. The D1 kid is rare in far SWVA but there are kids that can play at that level. Rasnick is a prime example. Good for him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mountain Football 1,532 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 Do schools like Concord and UVA-WIse give full ride scholarships? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoBearsGo 142 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 I can't imagine they would have "full" scholarships for athletics only. Kids can get everything covered between financial aid, academics and athletics but I don't think you see many if any full athletic scholarships at that level.

Really surprised Cousin did not generate significantly higher interest. UVA-Wise killing it this cycle. tornado99, BigWinners and swva_havok_fan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 Really surprised Cousin did not generate significantly higher interest. UVA-Wise killing it this cycle. UVa-Wise finally decided to invest some money into the program and it's paying off big time. Was telling a friend who works in the athletics department up there, I seriously believe both kids will see the field (may be a couple years for Sturgill, Cavs return a good youngster at QB) but I really believe Cousin will end up being an EXCELLENT runner for the Highland Cavaliers. swva_havok_fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 They also landed an elite JUCO OL from San Francisco. Donovan Lynch, he's a big kid (6'4, 320) and could start from day one. Also signed Kelso the DB from Appomattox. Kid is a stud.

BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 The local kids were Cousin, Sturgill, two more Graham kids in Paris Ballard (FS) and Cole Carter (OL) as well as Ryan Collins from Central. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 Union's Fannon to Concord per Allan Gregory on Twitter UVa-Wise wanted him bad, I think that would have been a better spot, in state tuition and a team on the upswing. But good for Fannon and I wish him the best at wherever he plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 Concord > UVA-W. Don't be so sure, it depends on who Concord hires. Not to mention he could be in the mix for playing time early at Wise, plus it's in state. I hope he succeeds anywhere, I just like seeing local kids play close. Concord was 2-9 last season and lost to Wise by 11 points. The Cavs went 6-5. Honestly should've been 7-4, they blew the Charleston game. The only bad losses were top five Shepard and top 25 Fairmont. GMan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EH31 2,516 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 I was just going by the past several years a a whole. I also didn't realize their coach left. Wise may be the better choice at this point. Who know. Funny story about when he left Concorf for FAU- I was in Athens for work and that morning I read an article saying that Justice had left on a plane the night before to finalize his contract with FAU. Well by chance I was meeting that day with a concord player and I asked him who he thought might be their next coach. I was surprised to find out he hadn't heard the news. He started calling around to other players and none of them knew he had left lol I felt 50% awkward and 50% like Adam Schefter. At least Kiffin is keeping him on the staff. I'd say he was nervous when he heard he got the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
