Congrats to the G-men. Outplayed us all the way around. I think you can bring another championship home. Good Luck.

He's ate so much crow this year it taste like turkey

Pretty simple, all we got to do is beat Ridgeview to get their points.

I would put Turner in the pot for what he has done. He has won 8 games without James Mitchell or Jeb Stidham. Pretty good job in my opinion.

Martin was let go because the new head coach and school board member were good friends. Head coach on a power trip with his wife. He was a decent quarterback in high school but didn't work as an assistant long enough to learn the game enough to run a program. Never was a leader, only a follower. He's made the statement while one of lee's lineman was benching 400 or so pounds that he had never seen that at LHS before. One of his former teammates and All American lineman at Emory & Henry replied, that if he had spent any time in the weight room as a player he would have seen that feat. Lot of talent at Lee and they sure deserve better than what they got at the top. Going to be hard a new coach to come in here and start from scratch. Only good news is that there is plenty of talent in the pipeline in youth program, jv and varsity got a long way to go. I sure am glad that my grandkids are at Union.

Prayers for your son and your family. Wishing him a speedy recovery.

Union plays in house with their youth football. Don't have much drop off there. Coaching makes a difference, Travis and his staff actually coach their jv and varsity in practice. Lee has had good kids for a long time but again coaching makes the difference. This is from one that has coached and operated the lee youth program.

I'll be surprised if this is close in the second quarter. I think the Bearcats have been padded a little bit. Pretty good group of players but probably finish third in district.

Lee doesn't have Mason Polier,Nate Bailey,Tanner Bishop,nor Johnny Satterfield

How's it look in Southwest Va. this year?

Do you think UT will get a coach that runs the wishbone? If they do will Lee High follow since the new spread stuff hasn't done them much good?

I really like watching Tanner Kennedy get after the ball. Very smart kid.

I hope the boys from Ewing have a good game. Johnson and Mooney have done a good job. I think things are looking up for TW. Need to pick up a few from Lee for next year. Several that didn't drink the cool aid may be ready for the move. Just need to come up with an address for the move.

Should throw Lees head coach in the mix. He finished 5-5 with probably the best talent since 1998. Next year will not be any better unless he picks up some more of the Cumberland teams

this is the team lee county has been waiting on for 5 years. it's a shame they don't get the support at the top. instead of trying to create a culture, somebody needs to get out of their way. talk is cheap. their head coach didn't have any confidence in them grounding out 2 yards at central. inside 2 yd he passed,passed,passed. if he can't run wynn and crusernberry behind big 77,74,55,9, he needs to hang up his whistle. lee 27 jb 35

Congrats to the Eagles

fb-fan24263, that's a smart statement and would have really helped last year in the blow out losses. Its kinda important for lee's younger players to get some experience this year but I doubt it will happen because that would require a change in the coaching thought process

They're trying to create a new culture, the old ways are not good enough for this head coach. I sure wouldn't be drinking any of his cool-aid.

I'm sure the staff from Lee made the trip to Knoxville for the Georgia game. They will have an orange game plan for this week for sure. Butch can't be at Gate City and Lee at the same time. I hear Jeremy Pendergraft Jones has him locked in at Lee this Friday

I think the boys from GC are a little better than record. Score will be closer than most expect. Gate City 28 Marion 27

Thomas Walker has some good athletes this year. I wish their freshman class was a year older. The Lee kid could play for anyone around here.

Lee has good talent but no coaching. Lee could have developed more talent last year in the blowout losses. Pendergraft and Coomer couldn't coach their way out of a paper bag. Lee wins the Cumberland again, but the real season starts now. If Ridgeview plays like they did at Union, it's a long bus ride for a lot of talented young men. Ridgeview 42 Lee 21.
