    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.

    You don't think Sproles, the MLB deserved Def POY?  He was by far the best defensive player in the entire conference this year.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Graham has been “through it”, insofar as we had to endure two coaches back-to-back who routinely squandered talent; who were abrasive to the point their teams quit on them; and did unconscionable things like giving away a home game (and the gate revenue that went with it) so he could watch his son be the 3rd string long snapper (this is not a joke; this literally happened) at UNC.  Now, unless there’s something happening at Gate City that hasn’t been leaked by the Columbos of this board, nothing of this magnitude is happening at Gate City.  What’s going on there is (1) a below-average, but not incompetent, football coach is (2) working with a severe shortage of talent that is beyond his control yet (3) gets them to play hard every week while (4) an indifferent leadership is resting on its basketball laurels.  That is nowhere near the level of what happened at Graham during “the lost decade”.  Not even close.  And I barely scratched the surface.
     
    This is exacerbated by the Roman Empire-like arrogance of a not insignificant number of your “fans”, claiming that a coach who hasn’t won anything without his hand being held by Colobro is going to miraculously fix the dysfunctional Gate City feeder program while simultaneously Merlining the talent currently on the roster into a state championship caliber team in 0.024 seconds.  It’s straight delusion, and let’s just say it pretty closely matches the reputation given to me by dozens of M7 fans regarding Gate City before you all ever dreamed of posting on this site.
     
    I know I’m wasting my time.  But since you summoned Graham as a comparison, you had this one coming.

    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.
