Not so sure Ridgeview is dropping people and beefing up their schedule or if people are dropping them because they don't want to play them. I think the people dropping them is more accurate.
Yeah, this has me concerned a little bit. Considering Gate City is the one team we never can seem to beat to begin with.
We are 4-2 in the regular season against them. We swept them the first and 3rd year of the school, got swept the second year. I wouldn't consider that a team we can never seem to beat.
He is good though and to the victor goes the spoils and comparing then it would be a toss up for POY between him and Polier. Why not give it to both of them Hell they don't care to give two awards to everyone else
I will admit that I didn't watch Pollier enough to compare them and I don't think you watched either of them enough to compare them. I also don't like comparing high school kids. I did however watch Sproles a lot, and even with his awards he is undervalued. He is really really good.
I do agree with you on the Def POY. I don't think Ridgeview deserved it however I think Polier is where he should have been. I also think that OL POY should have went to the kid from Abingdon alone. By having all these kids getting awards is teaching them nothing. You have some that got 2nd team who are better than some who got 1st. Some got HM who should have gotten 1st or 2nd. In the end everyone won I guess LOL
You don't think Sproles, the MLB deserved Def POY? He was by far the best defensive player in the entire conference this year.
Don't need to be too creative. Run what works until they stop it.
Well obviously the point of the post was as it said, if you can line up and stop them you will beat them because there will be no creativity or no change.
I’m sure ever lineback going to know where Adkins is at all times and I think Richlands has athletic enough backers to cover him. But I do agree with it should be a heck of a game and chess match between these 2 staffs.
I agree defensively I think it will be a chess match by both teams, but offensively Ridgeview will run the same things over and over. If you can line up and stop them you will beat them because they won't change and there will be no creativity.
There will be a big crowd. People who normally would have to work late on Friday and couldn't make the drive will now come and more people will come because the weather is supposed to be nicer. We had a terrible crowd there last Friday and I know no one expected the game to be that good, but the weather was terrible and probably hurt.
Also we keep talking about Ridgeview not having a very good passing game, but I think it is better or could be better than people know. The OC pretty much refuses to throw the ball and we have very capable and actually very good receivers. I believe even if we had D1 prospects at WR he still wouldn't throw the ball much. Actually I'm not sure he would throw it to Randy Moss. haha
I've watched every game and I love this team, but it doesn't take even a football expert to understand that we is very predictable. People sit in the stands and tell you what play is coming next. If Richlands has the athletes to stop or even just match up with our players, it won't take much of scheme to stop them. The way we beat people is we are just more talented or bigger than them. When we play people that are as big and talented. Well Abingdon is an example. We haven't played anyone else who is.
I would think that has been the plan for everybody the last 11 weeks. I have been hearing from some parents that the reason the game is moved to Saturday is so they can get an extra day of practice. Word is James Colley has been back on campus helping install the Tiger Air Raid offense. The plan is to pass at least 35 times this week. Colley's only request was to have some of the old Sandlick field brought up and put on the sideline. He wants to be able to draw up the plays in the sand with 5 leaves, 4 bottle caps, a penny, and a cigarette bud like old times.
This makes more sense. I knew that they would bring Colley in for the pass attack. I mean he was an offensive genius. Good thing they have a Haysi boy as the QB I mean Colley's offense was probably bread into him.
What? How dare they cancel a game at Bullit Park. Well I guess there is a first time for everything. dang entitled kids and coaches. and so on and so on.
Coaches have to go through some things some times to learn valuable lessons. I think he has done a great job of being flexible and changing things up to fit his personnel. Some coaches get stuck and stubborn, and it costs them. He has realized that to win it may not come the way he prefers. That will serve him well in the future for sure.
I don’t know much about him or them but don’t they run the ball now pretty much every play and they used to pass a lot before? Seems like he would be doing what all offensively lineman love to do and running the ball. But like I said you seem to have a better inside knowledge
1-7 is. Central and Marion are still fighting over the 8th spot.
I am assuming whichever one wins they are in, what was the scenario if they both lose? I'm interested because I figure one of them will play us (Ridgeview). Either probably won't provide much of a challenge, but still would like to know who we play.
No need to delete. I didn't mean to take anything away from the QB, he has done a great job. I was trying to make a point, but it came out wrong. We will be fine. I think Abingdon will beat Union.
As for the QB. In your own words, you said a different QB would not have made a difference in that game. So we need to make a change at QB when he is 7-0 in the other games.
You are right I did say that. It came out wrong I guess. I think he has done a fine job I'm not taking anything away from him. It shouldn't have been typed.
I don't care much for most of those coaches, but they are probably going to be 18-2 in the last two regular seasons and all of sudden they don't know what they are doing? Come on we sound as bad as Union fans wanting to fire Travis and their coaches after 1 loss. I mean I think there should be a different QB to but that wouldn't have made any difference in the game. Sometimes things happen, could we control some of them? Yes but not everything. It was a tough loss but we have to get over it and move on. Go fishing maybe shoot a nice buck calm down and get back after it Friday.
Congratulations to these gentlemen for going viral in all the wrong ways. I notice one was a high school referee in the middle of it all. I think he was trying to keep the peace, but ended up getting taken down hard.
What happened was awful and the people involved look like idiots, but to imply that it's the 2 high schools fault is ludicrous and not the rapper. Most high schools have nothing to do with little league or than allowing them to use their fields. They are separate entities (for lack of a better word) and I'm sure the head varsity coaches from both programs were as embarrassed as most. I would hope so at least.
Just for fun and I'm a homer, but anyone who has seen the size of Ridgeview's coaching staff I don't think would want to line up with them head to head. They have some big dudes. If you had to put together a staff of coaches to hold the front for you, who would you choose? Let's not be mean, just something fun on a slow Friday morning on the lake for me.
Also as I mentioned in another post I'm the same HaloSports just couldn't get this site to let me log back in. Couldn't remember my password and couldn't ever get it to send me a new one to my email, but I digress.
