Tazewell started today, kids excited to get it going.

And as Ryan said, it's not just about how it affects kids, it's about all the other people working at a school plus the risks of bringing the virus home to compromised people. At primary school age it seems the kids rarely transmit the virus but at the high school age, it's much more common.

Graham started yesterday. Not sure about Tazewell, Richlands is tomorrow I believe. Hope things work out for all the boys to get in at least an abbreviated season.

@RichlandsAlum that was my point, Nothing wrong with naming schools after presidents or whatever but it doesn't carry a lot of meaning. The directional names are terrible.Wise County has Central(terrible generic name) and Eastside(somewhat better). The only thing that may be worse is Patriot or Freedom (which VA now has 2 of). If a school system is going to change a schools name I like the more meaningful names better. Im ok with them changing the names, but it is a rabbit hole we have to be wary of. If were judging historical figures as Good or Bad based on one bad thing they did then they're all gonna come up short. Were looking at historical figures and their actions as black or white when we all know they're grey. Jackson was someone who was a traitor to his country, a patriot to and defender of his state, and someone who upheld slavery just like millions of others of his time, and held racist views just like the vast majority of the US during his time. Weve also adopted this viewpoint that the South was evil and the North was pro black equality, and thats simply not true. Judging either sides attitude toward blacks from todays viewpoint theyre both terrible.

Georgia State was actually a bowl team last year. People forget that. ODU finished 4-8 in 2018. The ODU loss was quantifiably worse. At least UT has won a natty...
