Not much in the charisma or personality department for sure.  Lol.  

As long as he is not anywhere near the football team at GC, it doesn't matter what he does!

Curious so I watched video.  Both scored a takedown.  One got unsportsmanlike for nearly taking potters head off.  Potter gets an escape to make it 4-2. Later gets a warranted stall call.  Kid from central should have kept shooting, he was getting in and snapping potter down easy at times. End of match.  Boring almost,  but hey not bad for a one-legged wrestler.  Gas tank looked OK for potter late in the match nearly thrown but recovered. Looked like a good match-up but potter has been in too many battles not to survive. Looked at bracket, central kid had a great draw to get to the finals. He had liberty and Southampton kid. Potter's side had Strasburg, potter, and radford. Bet a few 157s/175s are wishing they'd stayed 165 now. Looked better than the 4-0 match in regional week earlier.  Wish the 2 were Jr's. It would be a good rematch next year a couple more times. 

phyically a gifted youngin, i believe he's just a late bloomer to the finer points of the game.  more often than not he wasn't an impact in the game.  capable, just didn't get it done.  watched a lot of film and it appeared teams ran right at him with little resistance and on the offensive-side he showed good hands only a few times but struggled blocking at times.  hope he can find a way on the field now.  last i saw him he's still a big athletic-looking youngin.

Graham must not mix it up much with the M7, probably make for some interesting matchups.  anyone keep a page like fourseasons football page?

Only currency good on here is a frostie, or a milkshake from the knob

"The Farm" also qualifies.

Dead Horse:  Abingdon shouldn't have anything post-season inside the district.  All it does is flip the bracket no matter what the sport and changes regional pairings because of district tourney finish.  

Yeah, I'm not going to argue with the folks on here anymore about it.  I am in the thought process that you are that there needs to be more variety.  It has the potential to be a great tournament, but I don't want to spend $10-$15, whatever the session cost is to watch district games in a holiday tournament.  It's apparent the majority of the folks on here like this tournament the way it is though, so be it.
I didn't even like the fact that D-B played Maryville last week in the Arby's.  Even though it's not a district or even region matchup, it is a decent possibility it could be a substate matchup later down the road.
 

He may get all state but he doesn’t get an offer from Air Force. Ginn helped him a lot with his recruiting. The main reason he didn’t have better stats is because teams did run at him. That includes Tazewell and Graham and when they did it didn’t go well

Heard Union is cutting back a little, Fanny packs instead of backpacks lol.

500 replies on this topic... wow. The infamous Akers post only hit 438. So this thread has now surpassed it. 

Hey… someone else mentioned RB Worthy.  Haha

Tazewell!! (I'm biased).

In the late 80s when Lee was formed, they were good, very good. So was Gate City, but Gate City wasn't controlling the SWD or Region. Graham was. I know because I played against them twice in 1989. They won the Region in 89, 90, 93, 95. Lee started to fall off in 96. In 91 and 92 Radford won the region. 

Huff still on team but not playing tonight according to my buddy who’s son plays.  Not sure of the reason didn’t want to be too nosy asking 

He still have that Roy Orbison tattoo?

They'd be "killin'" it out there.
One downside: every pregame meal would consist of mustard and biscuits, potted meat, and french fried taters. 

The good news, it's Billy Bob Thorton!....

...The bad news, it's not the version Richlands was hoping for.

It seems to me that Tazewell & Graham were both well represented as well as several others from SWD. Congratulations to all the players listed above from Region D. 

Riverheads offensive scheme is tough on LB's and as good as Radford's LB's are, it's tough the way RH blocks.  They pull quiet a bit, but mix it up with some straight zone blocking (big on big)  LB's have to make a quick decision and commit to it and hope they're right.  OL for RH is fun to watch, good feet, quick, big, and don't miss many blocks.  They're perfectly content with 4 yards a carry while making a defense respect both sides and be accountable for everyone in the backfield.  Radford will have to make several stands and hope for a couple of turnovers, otherwise RH will absolutely eat the clock and milk the game.

If you want to honor Powell Valley and Appalachia do some throw back uniforms, the kids and especially the parents and grandparents would love it and so would the uniform supplier. 

As some of you know, I live in south Florida and take in a ton of games (28 this season) due to games on Thursdays and Fridays because of shared stadiums and referee shortages. This year, I saw 32 different teams, and while all but 5 of those teams would solidly thump or mercy rule Graham and Union, there are NONE of those teams who play with the passion those kids played with today, and there is NO place down there that is in the same universe in terms of game atmosphere as what I saw today. I wish I had a video of it to show those people. 

Convenient turf is, but football is meant to be on grass, green grass. Hate Bermuda even though it's a little tougher and heals quickly.
