EH31 2,518 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Explain the podcast a little more if you don't mind Ryan. Is it just you or are you going to have a co-host? Is it a weekly thing? I'm sure you know what you're doing but let me know if you need any help with getting the RSS set up and getting it on iTunes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TripleThreat 19 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 8 hours ago, Bluefield researcher said: I think we need a class A and Class B poll. Class A teams IMO. Princeton Bluefield Richlands Tazewell Graham Pulaski County Gate City Lee Union Abingdon Giles Pikeview Virginia High Carroll County Central Fort Chiswell Marion Lebanon Patrick Henry John Battle Grayson County Radford Ridgeview Class B Thomas Walker Montcalm River View Mount View James Monroe George Wythe Eastside J. I. Burton Grundy Twin Valley Hurley Twin Springs Rye Cove Castlewood Honaker Chilhowie Rural Retreat Holston Galax Northwood Narrows Bland County I did this list out of my head with what I think are about correct enrollment numbers. If you disagree please state why because I may be wrong. If I left anyone off my apologies. Also, there isn't much point in the poll if you are leaving off West Virginia teams intentionally. I would move PH to group B and GW and Galax to Group A I like this idea better simply because I have a hard time putting many teams from 1A Region D in a top 10 for the area. Could possibly be the softest Region in the state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, for purposes of the podcast, we can do top 5 of each region. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to my limited time in SWVA, I will likely host it primarily alone. With that said, it's not just going to be talking all the time on every episode. I want to interview coaches, interview the sports writers from the local papers, interview some of you guys. I think that could be really cool. I'll also go over some games from the previous week and preview a few big ones during the next week. It's a really fluid idea right now. I'll definitely take you up on the RSS and such, though.

With a podcast you can achieve most of the basis of that idea. And with Skype and a recorder you can do interviews and bring people on without ever having to leave your house. I like it.

I'm sure it will, but until I see how they do with the change, I chose to leave them off. It's a preseason poll, anyways. It'll change vastly when the season gets underway.

EH31 2,518 Report Share Posted July 8, 2017 Curious - If $100 was on the line how many people would actually take Lee, Chilhowie, JI Burton, or Marion to win vs. Bluefield? TripleThreat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's not a lot of separation between teams 7-20, really. I think the Top 6 are a clear cut above the field. The middle group will sort itself out soon enough.

Bluefield researcher 1,195 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 Bluefield has the talent to go 10-0. The line has been working very hard in the weight room this year which took me by surprise. Talked to a few of them and they said they were not happy with how they performed last year. No one in this area has as much talent returning as the Beavers.

redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 I only you all are over evaluating JIB. They lost 3 OL/DL from last years team and do not have the kids to replace them this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
local_insight 146 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Looks as if Richlands has gotten 2 transfers from Alabama. Not for sure how big or what grade, but I heard one was 6'5 250 or 260 and the other 6'3 240. Not sure on the details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
