Real Sasquatch reacted to FootballFan67 in Far Southwest Virginia Top 20 - February 5, 2024
I would tell you to watch on NFHS but the game between the Graham boys & Marion boys has been taken down.The girls' game is still up. Who takes down games? Does NFHS? If so, why would they take it down? If not them, then does the host school take down games? If the host school takes down games, then I think we can guess why Marion took it down. Honestly, you couldn't really surmise what actually happened from the NFHS feed but I've heard there's another video that clearly shows the coach intentionally pushed the Graham player. I haven't seen it though. I was at the game and it 100% happened. The officials discussed at length what they were going to do. The coach was called for only a technical. If I were the administration at Graham I'd be filing a complaint with the VHSL. No high school coach should lay his hands on a player especially a player from the opposing team.

Kelly green is so difficult to match up, whether its clothing or paint. I would like to see the wooden bleachers get replaced with metal ones.

Real Sasquatch reacted to CPF in Updated football fields
I've heard the money will be found. It's just a matter of time now. I was told between mitchell and the soccer complex they've paid in excess of 80k. You could keep paying that......or invest that into your own facility. Besides......they just hit us hard on property taxes. There will be money.

I heard if Graham gets a stadium that the funding will need to come from the community. There are no funds allocated from the school board, town, or county. I wonder what price tag we’re looking at and if enough donations can be collected to make it a reality.
Yes, on Richlands field, get the color right time, lol.

Real Sasquatch got a reaction from Tru Blue72 in Updated football fields
Work has begun at Graham and Tazewell. From my understanding, they can't put turf down until the temperature remains above 54 degrees for an extended period of time, but the other foundational work has begun. Don't know much about Graham's field, but hear that Tazewell's field will include new visitors seating, a track (not sure if rubberized or not) - Not sure if there will be much done to the home side of the stadium, haven't heard. The Turf field will be alternating dark and light green, bulldog logo in the middle and the field will be trimmed in black. Markings for soccer and track and field will be included on the field (not 100% sure on that). I believe that everything at THS should be good to go for next football season. When all is said and done, I believe it will be very similar to the setup at Christiansburg High School.
Also hearing that Tazewell is planning to upgrade their softball field and install a permanent fence and add more seating and lighting.
As for Graham, it looks like they have torn down the fence between the two fields and the turf looks (to me anyway) like it will be laid down somewhere in the middle of where the two practice fields were (I assume to make room for a future grandstand and visitors stands). I hear they are also getting a track.
But yes, work has begun and I am looking forward to seeing how it turns out at THS, from what I hear, it will look very nice.
As for Richlands, haven't heard, but I would assume, most of that work will be put off until the weather gets warmer, since not as much has to be done.

Played well tonight against Marion, 40 point win. May need to bring up a couple more jv players at seasons end, if they get in foul trouble, only having 8 players

It's quite interesting that folks are talking not about what Davis brings to the table, but what D. Palmer would bring to the table after this hire.

I personally don’t believe we’ll have to 😂. I think he stays put.

Real Sasquatch reacted to Gridiron60 in New Head Coach at Richlands
If the end game was to coach together again, wouldn’t Coach Davis have just stayed at Graham? I could be wrong but I just see Snake as being too loyal and dedicated to just up and leave Graham.

In my opinion, With the talent coming back, Graham may put out one of the best defenses since back in the 80's. Hard to think he would walk away from this.

They held their own with Bluefield until the 4th quarter then game got away from them. I’m no basketball ball coach but I would have used Floyd. I guess he’s still benched. He didn’t play but dressed out.

Real Sasquatch reacted to Bluefield researcher in Any schedules for next year yet?
Graham
08-30 H Bluefield
09-06 H Galax***
09-13 H George Wythe***
09-20 A Union
09-27 A Virginia High
10-04 A Marion
10-18 A Lebanon
10-25 H Pulaski County
11-01 A Tazewell

*** = 3 conflicts with Bluefield home games. Bluefield moved 2 of 3 conflicts last season so I suspect Graham will move 2 of the 3 to Thursday in 2024.

I don’t believe Graham is the clear by far top team in 2D if they’re losing by 20 at home to just a pretty good VHS team. I think there’s a pack of 6-8 teams that could all either win the region or lose in round one.

Real Sasquatch reacted to Gridiron60 in Far Southwest Virginia Top 10 - December 31, 2023 - Version 3
Graham will struggle without a big man underneath when they play teams who have one. They have to learn to post up. I don’t see sustained success unless they do that. They cannot rely on the 3 pointers. They missed a ton last night. They seemed to be playing more like individuals than a team which is probably due to the youth factor.

Ill go with the under.. everyone is warm and fuzzy with the new coach, but reality will kick in fairly soon. a year or 2 out before they really turn the corner. I do hope the second best for the big blues though.
