Here's some possible changes. The following will be discussed at the VHSL Executive Committee meeting in January. No guarantee that these will actually be changed, just discussed.
Possibility of playing semi-final football games at a neutral site, like basketball currently does, rather than the home stadium of the highest seed.
Possibility of playing semi-final football games on turf fields.
Possibly reducing the number of qualifying teams for each region from 8 to 4 to eliminate 1 playoff game.
Possibility of rotating regions for semi-final games. Instead of A/B and C/D could be D/B and A/C or D/A and C/B.
 

Thanks BigWinners and all the Union fans that spoke to me after the games for the shout out for him,
I feel that Union will have a really good defense next year...On the offences side we still need to plug in some players...(Meaning the boys need to work hard in the off seasons to feel some of the gaps)..This is my opinion only "Coach Turner is a great mentor and leader for the boys at Union"...For what he's taught my SON in 5 months hands down, Him and his stuff has brought him to the next level...
And there a lot of people that know me from Union...I have told all the KIDS that spoken to me that there NO OFFSEASON IN FOOTBALL NO MORE!!     ITS... 24/7....365
GO BEARS!!! 

Northwoods field does not look bad.  It just looks like dormant Bermuda.  It is crazy the twists and turns this has taken though.

Your gonna suspend a mans account for a joke and call him an idiot when he can’t defend himself?  Come on man. 
 
A joke was made about bluefield football. They lost a game. Some of us cut up. I made some jokes. I, BearDawg, got suspended for two months with no warning for a joke. Didn’t violate any board rules that you agreed to when you open an account. Would the same thing happened had I made jokes about east side or central???  Doubtful. I got no problem with you gman. But you need a thicker skin. Just because some of “us idiot, bad apple” Union fans don’t follow bluefield football doesn’t make us just that. I suspect I’ll be removed from the forum after this. But I’ve waited for long enough. And I just stumbled across this and figured I’d speak out. All towns have fans that cut up. Some y’all out of the sis elf their mouth. Some have zero football knowledge. Some have a ton (Union Fan and bluefield researcher for two. Much respect!). Some like to stir a stink. I’ve been a positive poster on this forum. I try to stick to damage control for the most part. But I do call a spade a spade. I don’t always agree with people. Not even Union fans. But that’s how people are. 
You run a good forum. But slow down on the power trips. We all know you can drop the hammer. But if you think this forum is my life, wrong. Is it fun to read. Sure. Post on?  Sure. But not life. 
As for this account, I did go to Hopewell for a while before moving back to Appy.  So I am a blue devil as well  but I’ll always be a Dawg!
So to summarize, I am NOT sorry for my joke. It was goofy and light hearted. No name calling was done in it. It was a simple joke. So you decide my fate. Both of them lol. But to come at me when I can’t defend myself is just a cowards act. 

VHSL just called, tomorrow's games at Wheeling to be moved to Northwood. 

This decision may not bode well for Heritage on Saturday. You know the coaches and kids from Botetourt are gonna be a little pissed when they take the field and it’s not at their house. And we’ve all seen what this Botetourt team can do with a bit of a chip on their shoulder. They shut down an outstanding bluefield team on the road when most people, myself included expected bluefield to win that game. They may be even more eager now to prove that they are not only the better team, but also deserved to play in front of their home crowd. 

Didn't think about that. Good dad though! Maybe he can find a way to juggle both.

Think I hit that nerve finally and I wont say this where it's just us. Yes I am a grown ass man that brings a big hammer to ball games and I'm very proud of it. High School football is the greatest sport played because they are playing for the love of the game. But apparently you are jealous of the size of my hammer. But it's ok you will be just like alot of other union fans when your family is done you wont be back. 

I think @BearDawg would agree, had he not been hammered for a joke. 

This is what is wrong with today's society everyone gets a trophy. 24 kids that's it. First team and move on 11 off 11 defs. Utility player and kicker.

You are by far my favorite graham poster. Hope you can make it to the pit next year. Plus, we play both of y’all next year so it’ll keep the playoffs interesting. 

To all my Union buddies, @Union_Fan @Union's hammer @UNION#ATW @BigWinners &rest y'all , the Graham/Richlands thread this week hasn't been nearly as fun as this one was with you all. I'm a bit disappointed! Could one of you talk Mance into making a hype video? You know to liven things up a bit. 

What stands out to me on that list is Gate City, PV, and Appy. PV played 64 playoff games and Appy played 59 up until 2010. What if they were still around through 2017? Those total playoff games would be much higher.  Gate City has a whopping played 84 playoff games. And Giles with 77. All 4 of those are impressive to me.  

If that’s the Lee transfer he will be a monster.  I think they will be back in the mix next year. 
Who is coming back for them?

OL returns LT and C. Polier is back. Andy Jones will be QB. Bryce Guerrant will be one of the RBs, and watch out for Lomax and Malachi Jenkins.
Rasnick is a very good WR, and there's talent coming. 
 
On defense, CJ Jones, Bryce Guerrant, Wagner may play DE, Polier at LB, Jervis at DT, there's talent there

I’m just stating how the Union game went. TA was MIA and Sexton was the bear trapper. Doesn’t mean I think Trent can’t play. He’s a baller. But yalls team is better with balance. 
 
Just hope that that nasty rumor isn’t true or rose ridge will be in a bad way next year. 

Dont be surprised to see a couple of freshmen getting some playing time next year as well. 

Sexton carves thru Unions defense. Atkins didn’t hurts us. Sproles didn’t hurt us. Sexton hurt us running and catching the ball. Really shocked Coach Mullins went this route. Putting too much stock in Atkins. 

There's no "halo" rule in HS. You just can't hit the receiver of the fair catch or interfere with him..ie touching, standing in front and waiving hands or jumping to obscure his view. And as far as the Richlands/Union game goes, yes, it was VERY much in doubt until the pick 6 that made it 42-28. This game is always in doubt. haha

Proof is in the pudding. Even when Richlands is in a “down season” (by their standards) they still go far into the playoffs. Coach Mance!  Never met the dude but have tons of respect for him. 
 
 

Auto correct got me. Pnut football since you can’t figure it out sir. Saunders only stopped the PV win streak while at Kelly. As for his moral compass, I can’t speak on. 
 
I love how how you mention the GC defense shredding gretna then mention that reed was the OC. So does that mean the waterboy should get credit for any tackles made by a well hydrated LB?
Mic drop!

Richlands keeps rolling with the emotions and pulls out the win. I don’t pick against Mance. 

Just for fun, chilhowie has too many turnovers and PH pulls the upset 28-27 😂

Me too, I'm sure atmosphere was something else and the chewing fat around the fire pit. They'll have to fire me next weekend if I get called into work. I'll refuse to go in. Seriously, do hope Graham wins to give Tony his first regional championship. Mance has had his fair share, lol. Wonder how many of those 199 wins, D. Palmer was his defensive coordinator? 🤔
