BigWinners 1,642 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 Guys I gotta admit that’s shady AF. Even if he wasn’t trying to gather info or anything, why be on our sideline? Why get so close to the HC and play callers? It looks bad, if nothing else. I dunno what happened. I just know that’s the same dude in the pic from the one posted earlier. Zero doubts now. I’m not accusing the Blues staff of anything at all. But that dude had no business on our sideline near the huddles and close enough to hear play calls if he’s such a big supporter for the Blues.

BigWinners 1,642 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 FTR, I blame the Park and the staff for not having better security. Gotta have someone there to make sure people on the sidelines belong. Lord knows we bring enough anyway, need to assign one of the thousand adults down there to check passes and such Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was taking pictures of Tazewell warmups this year. Not sure what his reasoning was, but that’s what he was doing. He was on the Graham sideline during the Richlands game, too. barondawg77 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had players from Bluefield Beavers long before RHS had any fb player transfers He isn't from Graham. I can promise you that.

He cut my hair for years also, but I don't think that is him, I could be wrong, and if I am apologize, (been wrong before) , but if it is him, I can assure you that he was not spying on Union. Look at it this way, he is a great guy, but if you were having someone spy on the opposing team, wouldn't you want someone with a lot more football knowledge than a local barber who takes pictures on the side, come on it just don't make sense. Most press people move around from side to side to get the best view of the filed, and maybe that's what he was doing, but if you think he was spying, to what avail, Union won. I can not account for his actions at that game, but I can say in my opinion you have nothing to worry about, he may be a photographer, but he is no spy.

Don't think anyone from Richlands has any respect for you either, that's why we pull for two teams each week; Richlands and the team that is playing Graham.

All in fun my friend, all in fun, you can bet if Graham gets to state I for one, along with many more Richlands fans will be a Graham fan on that day, we will totally support area teams.

Hey now wait a second : I left my Uncle Silas in charge of the compound while I was on a trip to Reno for a little gambling . I never thought he would ever post anything on this forum , but give him beer or 2 he goes bat shit crazy on high school football. As for me I have no animosity against the kids who play the game. I am a Blue Tornado , but I respect any and all of the teams we played and lost to i 2017 !That includes the 4 teams I view as RIVALS -1-Has to Tazewell a lot of History here, but we are up on them in the modern era -2 has to be Graham Coach Carlock was a friend, they still have an edge on us , but we are sucking hind tit here-3 The Union Bears, great program, but we are looking forward to see them without Mitchell and at Ernie in 2018.4 Gotta be The Gate City Blue Devils .Never an issue with their kids or fans , a great program down a little. One negative -The Bluefield Beavers . No problem with their players ,but it is hard to beat them and the Zebras. I hope The Blues schedule Ridge View, Lee or any other Va team -not that it would be an easier schedule just more likely to get unbiased officiating.

This is This from a school that did not have qualified officials show up at the last game vs. Bluefield and called their retired friends in to officiate. Ejecting a player for cursing when he was kicked in the groin. Clean your own house before pointing fingers. EH31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarhead24219 440 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 I don’t see why they wanted a “spy” whomever he was working for, here they are : jet sweep left,right, Mitchell right left up the middle, Zirkle up the middle and a post pass, that’s it folks no mystery and we didn’t even run the single wing set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SXSW 557 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 If you are going to spy in 2017 there are much more clever ways to do it than this. Get a drone and record the whole practice, set up a hidden camera, use trail cams and probably somewhere you could do it with satellites, if they can find Big Stone. Sending a spy walking in is "old school" and outdated. C'mon Man!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarhead24219 440 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 No spy needed here, we stop Ford, we win the game. What I have seen of Ford he doesn’t look “Cook” fast but he scores and blocks and tackles very well and catches passes too. The line seems very good also. I say let Kennedy spy Ford when he is lined up in the backfield and let Qualls cover him when he is lined up wide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham started keying on Ford and the QB made some big runs in the 4th. jarhead24219 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
