  1. He was the star running back on the 2006 Giles team. He played at Concord. I don't know much about his coaching ability but he is young and should be able to get the boys out to play. I don't really know what kind of offence or defense he runs.
  2. If he retires I hope he comes home and coaches at Giles. We need another good coach
  3. I will call it now Union beats Appomattox. They can't stop the power run. If Union call tackle they will win. Giles probably missed 50 or more tackles
  4. I know it will be an uphill battle as well. I will be there cheering also. I just think some of the kids get on here and look at these posts. The other Friday I seen a high school kid looking at this site on his smart phone. That's the reason I'm hesitant to right comments like that on here
  5. No. I'm a Giles fan that stands behind his team win or lose. I don't believe in admitting defeat until it has happened. I'm not going to say I believe Giles will win Friday but I'm going to be there cheering them on win or lose. I played for Giles and I can not remember ever going into a game scared or thinking we are going to lose. The kids deserve optimism not pessimism. Cheer for the kids and just let the cards fall where they may.
  6. Why even show up then? The way you have talked about this team all year has been very negative. You sound like a narrows fan. Always thinking they are beat before the game even starts.
  7. Appomattox definitely has the speed advantage but only in the past 3 years has Giles had any speed period. All year long Giles has been the slower team on the field but they used ball control and a good defense to win game. Up until 2013 that was the recipe for success at Giles. If they ball control and play good defense they have a chance.
  8. Will there be a tiebreaker between Giles and martinsville? I just assume that is the reason for the question mark
  9. He is done for the year. Torn meniscus. That's not good for Giles. Hopefully they can play run teams in the playoffs
  10. Call the school and ask his dad. His dad is the athletic director. I hope he is back next week. Giles really needs him. If not he still has 2 more years.
  11. I think Giles and Martinsville will tie in points. If so I think Giles wins the tie breaker
  12. Finally a tailback that hits the holes at full speed instead of dancing in the backfield. Biedleman is better in space. Sometimes you need a back to just take the 3 yard gain
  13. I don't think any of the backs this year has the explosiveness they have had the last 4 years. The running backs from the last 4 years made the line look better than they really were. I actually think this year's o and d lines are better than last years
  14. I think it is as if the game was never played. They were an out of state school as well. That might be why it doesn't show up on vhsl reference
  15. I think it's still a loss because I played in the game. Lol
  16. Western guilford had to forfeit the game so it probably doesn't show up in the records
  17. 2002 lost to blacksburg,western guilford, and narrows. Started season 0 and 3
  18. Corrupt officiating? That's laughable. Now incompetent I can agree with. Giles got down 13 to 0 with 8 minutes to go in the first quarter but after that Graham only had 2 or 3 first downs until late in the fourth quarter. It was a good game between 2 good teams. Everyone is getting butt hurt over bad officiating which didn't effect the outcome. The more talented team won. Both teams need to worry about the next 6 weeks instead of last week
  19. The Terry kid from blacksburg is the one athlete that compares with the athletes from from Graham. Sure Colton Beck is fast but isn't very illusive in open space. I think it is just a match-up problem for abingdon. Just my opinion
  20. I will take Graham 49 to 35. Abingdon couldn't stop one athlete from blacksburg. They are going to be playing against a team with 5 guys that can score on any given play.
  21. Honestly that was a flag happy crew. That being said all of the calls on the last drive were obvious. The block in the back and holding on the touchdown runs were easy to see. The horse collar was easy to see also.
  22. Yes he is a freshman. Bye season end he should be really good. He's still learning how to play with kids his size.
  23. Giles defensive backs are going to have to get a lot better this week in practice or Graham will score 60. They couldn't even stop a quarterback sweep against narrows. I know that narrows has a good quarterback but he doesn't have the same speed that Graham has.
  24. I have watched Blacksburg and Christiansburg play and Blacksburg is at least 3 touchdowns better. Blacksburg should keep it within 14.
  25. Giles is already rotating lineman in
