It is the witching hour

I hung out with coach Mills after a coaches clinic in Blacksburg several years back and he he is a special, charismatic dude.  We also are Chilhowie Alums many years apart lol.  Congrats to him and Dinwiddie for the title!  Well deserved.   

I was at Chilhowie last night right behind the Bulldog's sideline.  I wasn't impressed with Tazewell's size and they have no interest in running the ball even though that is what they should do with #1 who appears to be a nice back.  The qb has a nice pocket presence but has zero time to get through any progressions.  He looks at his first route and then has to escape.  I haven't seen the Bearcats but I know enough about them and their coach that I will take Virginia High in this one.

I feel like it may different this time around.  They are so lucky to have Joey come back home and he has already made a huge impact and he is the type of coach you don't want to lose.  

I would say to give HC Joey Carroll a little credit!  Burton was a nice building block even if they aren't as good as some thought they would be.

In his case and I am sure many others around the state he could graduate high school in December and enroll in college in January.  That would be very beneficial to anyone wanting to play early in their college career.

Congrats to Wise Central players, coaches and fans for an incredible turn around and an awesome season.  The Warriors are going to be hard to handle the next couple of seasons.  However the G men are hard to handle now and congrats on winning region D.  Now it is time to go repeat.  Devin Lester is an absolute freak athlete but if they can't clean up the flags it could cost them.

Not a good look for their club team!

Forecast and field conditions.  
 

Graham wins Region D the main reason is because of speed they have more than anyone else left playing. Union seems to be going in the wrong direction from what I have read, RV secondary will be destroyed if they make it, and Central is having a great year but they do not have the cats that Graham has. You still have to play the game and anything could happen if they dont take an opponent seriously but with a group of 16 seniors and the fact that they have done it before means the G Men should be in Salem

central may be undersized up front but they play very low and are very fast off the snap. Ridgeview has some beef but in high school football I will take a quick lean 230 lb kid over a slower 280 any day of the week. With that being said Adkins is very good and RV has speed if they can get the ball there. #7 can flat out fly and reverse or end around to him and he can score from anywhere. The run D for RV is very good mostly because they load the box and play man though I am not sure what centrals passing attack looks like. If central can throw for more that Adkins rushes for they win

Agreed 100% that place sucks for opposing teams

Battles defense will be the best that PH has faced to date, even with the injuries, but the offense is having a hard time moving the ball. Hopefully for battle have had a good week of practice and have made progress but the game may be lower scoring than people think. Brown just needs to break 2 runs for scores and they will be fine. I hate to hear that about #20 though he’ll of a ball player.

They have the support no doubt my main point is that in their region and the fact the Coach Robinson keeps getting kids to come out and work their tails off they will continue to play into thanksgiving just like the programs I have mentioned will they be able to win it all I don’t know because Riverheads isn’t going anywhere either

I think it is safe to say that Coach Robinson has mastered the art of getting his kids to buy into a program. He has been doing the same thing on the baseball diamond for years. Chilhowie is quickly turning into a Richlands, Graham, or Union type program in 1a for this side of the state. I was honestly shocked about the amount of drop off that didn’t happened from last year. Now when you think about it those kids that are starters now have gotten a whole season worth of extra practice in the last 2 years that other teams that missed or didn’t go deep in the play offs have missed out on. Add that to the fact they were practicing against a pretty dang good group of seniors and have a master motivator in Coach Robinson makes for a pretty dang good team. I also think community support helps a lot. On top of packing the house for every home game they have some of the best facilities in their county in almost every sport and it’s not even close. As long as the regions continue to be split like they are expect chilhowie to play on thanksgiving at the worst for years to come.

Yes that’s what I’m saying. I would put money on it that if you got to a Marion PH or GW games at 6:45 you would have time to grab a hot dog and get to your seat before kick off not the case at Chilhowie. Chilhowie also graduated 18 seniors and still rolling. But now that I think about it you are right they arnt the next Richlands Graham or Union because they don’t need tazewell or J.I. Burtons best players to be dominant 

Abingdon pulls a Tennessee football and overlooks this one and loses 30-38 because just like Georgia States head coach said in the locker room at Gate City it just means more to us

What a complete joke and major distraction for those kids from Chilhowie.  Galax has to have all of the motivation in the world now.  Chilhowie fans, staff, and administration are acting like moving a game from a muddy field to a college stadium with wonderful facilities to a field with sinkholes and giant rocks in the corner of the end zone with pine trees two feet from the pylons is a great idea.  Also why did they go practice at Emory & Henry?  I smell ego city because VHSL moved it to Emory without consulting with them first.  I hope all that complained are happy with the outcome.  I hate it for those kids especially the seniors.  Reminds me of Tennessee trying to hire Greg Schiano lol!
