Wise shut him down pretty well and he was a no factor in GC game. I don’t think you’ll find many people agreeing Fix was better than Bostic.

Well Caywood is 1D and in the games I’ve saw of Graham, Fix was their third option and often not super involved. Bostic ran the show at Union for a team that won the M7, who filled 3/4 spots in 2D semis.

You guys are kinda being weird, dude just said kids don’t usually grow much more after puberty. Pretty basic stuff there, I don’t see him being weird about it. You guys took it there not him. Got no dog in this fight, just seems like an innocuous comment thats got blown wildly out of proportion.

She had 15 on 6/7 shooting in first half.

Why in the world would they not deem him eligible if his family moved for legit reasons? Thats crazy and there’s no chance the M7 would rule him out if his entire family came to BSG for a job or something.

Nvm I see Falcons won by 20, 58-38. Congrats to those girls! First in Abingdon history.

Score?

True. It would be a mess for sure. I wasn’t putting together they’d be playing back to back, the field in BSG is fine in the cold with natural grass but playing in one day yeah thats not ideal. I just hate turf.

Why not? Weather? But natural grass is so much better

Can’t get shots to fall and CC is just too big. Hell of a run for the girls, came up just a bit short.

Up now extends to nine. 40-31

4:34 in third CC up 38-31

CC up 36-31

Oh okay i was gonna say, thats rough lol

Man he’s a great coach but the spelling in that post, oof lol. Any local team needing a HC, thats a home run hire IMO.

Anyone know all the tip off times?

Bout as good of a hire as anyone could have hoped. Even with all the circus around the program, being able to land a guy with a proven track record and local pedigree is a home run.

If Union can score 4-5 runs per game they can beat anyone, that pitching staff is filthy.

I like you but no, it doesn’t, at all. You’ve already had your high school experience, the kids now haven’t. It shouldn’t be in place to placate adults who feel a certain way at the expense of the kids at JI Burton or Twin Springs or any small 1A school that would inevitably be hit the hardest by cutting classifications. A state title is a state title. I can guarantee you not one player in any sport feels like their title means less because it was ‘easier’ to get (which btw I don’t buy either, more kids are specialized, more kids have access, etc). So it boils down to this: you’d rather see a 7-3 or 8-2 team who might have not gelled early (in football) and is now maybe rhe best team in their division get left out as opposed to a 4-6 team make the playoffs and let the higher seeds, who earned it, get an easier game to gear up for a title run. The cream rises to the top, but larger classifications means you’ll have Rye Cove competing with teams like Graham and Union, maybe even Abingdon, and in sports like basketball and football, those numbers matter a lot.

Why the need to even go smaller? I don’t get why people feel like their own feelings about ‘watered-down’ titles means more than some of these kids getting to go to the postseason for maybe the first time.

Yeah I didn’t even think about him not teaching, thats tough. I don’t know of any HCs in the district that aren’t employees. He wouldn’t settle for an assistant job? The new guy seems to be doing a good job but it felt like RV had a more complete team than Union and with a couple small tactical changes they would have beaten Union and played for a title. Not ISOing Witt on defense every possession after she got two fouls early and going to the basket every time seemed like a big error. I would have prob tried to trap Witt too and force rhe ball out but I can see why you might not wanna do that. But not attacking her relentlessly when she already had two fouls seemed like a big misstep.

They were third but just one game behind. Had they won the last matchup against RV in regular season, they would have won it. Id have voted Trivitte/Hayes for POY. Witt is a junior, she’ll win it next year while Hayes was the most complete player in the M7.

Damn that sucks. That could gut their program for years until someone fills that void. Do you think they should have given him a serious look or do you believe in the current coach?

Man thats such a bummer. They’ve been elite for so long, I’d hate to see them fall off like that. I want all the area teams to be as good as they can be, iron sharpens iron. Whos JV did well aside from Lee and im sure Wise? Could Lee somewhat take their place and battle for top of district?

So this could be the end of an era? I hate that, I hope they can build back. Lots of talented girls in this area and Clintwood/Haysi are no exception. The Sutherland that left, were they related to the Sutherland who was so good this year? (My wife’s moms maiden name was Sutherland ans her family was from Dickenson county)
