I’d be surprised if anyone gets rolled, probably be dogfight until the time runs out. I’m just hoping GMen pull out the W!

I’m going to say Gate City pulls it out in a close one. They’re much improved & have some momentum going into to game.

I’ll take Tazewell in a close. Hope Jones from VA High is okay.

Bluefield is a great unknown right now to me. I agree Graham’s defense is solid. Fuller at QB for Bluefield is going to be an asset from what I’ve read. I could see it being within one score. I’m not sure Graham bulldozes Beavers but I hope they pull out the win. My Bluefield friends are saying Beaver bulldozes Graham so I guess we’ll see. It’s few & far between GMen winning two in a row against Bluefield! 🤞

Oh, the Internet is forever even if you delete it! You would think adults would know that.

?????

The admins can tell if a person is using multiple accounts I think??? Something to do with IP address. If it makes the board more interesting, I’m okay with one person having multiple conversations with oneself. It’s probably therapeutic (I only play a doctor on a sports board) 😂.

I haven’t heard much chatter about Beaver thus far. Can Graham come away with a repeat of last year or do Beavers dominate? What says the board?

They must have improved or coaches are doing a better job. We’ve heard on here the past couple seasons from GW folks how bad coaching is…guess they’ve turned the corner if they’re giving Union a run for their money.

GW can beat the Riverheads??

5 hours is CRAZY!!!

Richlands was headed south before Mance went south. Hey, I ain’t complaining, Richlands’ loss, Graham’s gain. Credit to him & Snake for all those successful years together for the Blues. I wish Tarter the best, he’s a stand up guy. Harris has done a great job at Tazewell. Hope the Blues & Dawgs can be successful this season but I sure do love the rivalry between them. It sure makes the board more entertaining!

Predictions: Does George Wythe score on Union tonight? That’s a long haul from Wytheville. I don’t envy those boys on that bus ride.

Did anyone go to the Graham/EC Glass game? I only know what I read on that “other” site. 😂 I was wanting to hear from an area person that went to get their firsthand insights. It sounded like talent wasn’t the issue but EC Glass just playing undisciplined & Graham showing up to play ball. Defense seems to be strong & obviously GMen have speed even though “some” want to debate that, lol.

Hope it’s not a season ending injury. I hate to see any player get hurt. 🙏 The Blues are in capable hands in Coach Tarter. This may or may not be their season but give him some time. He’s a great one to have at the helm.

Graham 21 EC Glass 21 (Graham’s starters score 3 times on EC Glass starters) (EC Glass 2nd & 3rd string scored on Graham’s) Final 21-21

I cheer for our county rivals unless they’re playing the GMen! If it’s the Dawgs & Blues, I usually pull for the Dawgs. I have relatives in Tazewell, lol!

I hope but I don’t count our wins before they materialize! One game at a time!!!!

Maybe Graham’s defense is just that good at putting on the pressure. They do have some great defensive coaches. Maybe EC Glass gets it together & makes a game of it 2nd half. Either way, Graham should be solid this year and may or may not make a deep run. Union & Bluefield are both formidable opponents and are a great test for Graham.

Graham another pick 6, 21-0. 2 minutes til half.

Per VA Preps, ran down the field for one; pick 6 on the other.

Graham 14 EC Glass 0 End of 1st Quarter per VA Preps.

Aaron Lowe 🤷🏻‍♂️

I totally agree with this. I cannot imagine he will ever get a coaching position back anytime soon if ever in Tazewell County. He's not the first coach that's lost a position had he just stepped back quietly, he very well could have a position again. It seems from an outsiders' point of view that he made this more about him than anything else. His ego got bruised when he was axed from football and he let that get him in a world of stink. The more he's stirring, the stinkier it's getting. I'm not saying he's not a stand up guy normally and girls obviously love him as a coach, he just let a situation get the better of him and now as you said, he's burned every bridge in town.

Has he been reinstated yet, lol? I really do feel badly for the girls especially if they are being encouraged sit out a year of their high school career as protest. Do they plan to sit out next year too? Let's face it, Rife is a placeholder to get them through this season and then they'll bring someone else on as head coach and it won't be Lowe. Do they sit out indefinitely? Transfer? At some point, you accept what has happened and get on with life. The. End.
