  1. I wonder if they TRD will rethink having a district "tournament" when it really doesn't mean anything. Carroll was a really good team and lost their best player during it. They haven't done a tourney in years so why did they start now?
  2. Floyd was definitely not the team to beat in 2C. They went to the wire twice with a very mediocre Radford team. they only one the so-called TRD Tourney because the best Carroll player got hurt right before the half. I imagine they got out out coached again.
  3. I don't think anyone in the TRD can compete with Carroll. Carroll has imploded in a few games the past few years with these kids but if they can keep their head straight, they will walk away with it.
  4. he called the officials by a name that showed his narrow mind.
  5. the player and coaches should be embarrassed for what he did to get those penalties and get ejected.
  6. Facebook shut down the Radford football group where she had been streaming
  7. a dr on the Radford sideline said he was clearly concussed.
  8. Graham has very strong tendencies from certain formations. makes it easy to predict.
  9. Yall do realize the home side bleachers go endzone to endzone and the visitor side goes 15 to 15. Graham was about 30 yards short. lol
  10. This! I read all season about how he was a bad coach and Radford may lose in the finals but he is a good coach. I questioned hiring a coach with a losing record but look what he has done. We could only field a JV or middle school team and now we have enough for both. He is building and growing a program in a sport that is dying. The kids really respond to him. I think it's time to end the personal attacks.
  11. Graham DB nearly tackled #18 on the stop and go
  12. We have seen teams try to put pressure and then they have no one to prevent big runs and then we have seen teams try to contain him and he picks them apart with the receivers. I also think his arm strength surprises players. They are not used to see throws so deep. He can easily throw 50 yards in the air while scrambling.
  13. they have had lots of injuries and are on their third or fourth string QB. Most of the players are underclassmen. Just a tough situation for them.
  14. It will be interesting to see. This year will be a stuggle because of losing Gavin and Kelly but the pipeline is strong. Ben is behind many of the concepts that are run by Radford. The question is can he be a game coach and make adjustments and calls in close games.
  15. Ben Fisher is officially being announced as head coach of Radford today.
  16. They still show 4 games on the schedule and 2 days ago the coach sent out a notice for a game this week against Alleghany. Are you sure on your source? I know the AD isn't great at updating the website but the coach hasn't sent that out yet.
  17. he has a PWO from Va Tech also. My guess is he will be either a receiver or on defense at the next level. he is unguardable as a receiver in high school. Radford has put him at receiver once and I'm sure they will do it more.
  18. I disagree. I saw an undisciplined and unprepared team lose to Radford.
  19. Players have been told that Rick Cormany has officially retired. They didn't say Ben Fisher was the new coach but I'm sure it will be him.
  20. It's a mess left by our former superintendent. Basically the bleachers are deteriorating. They were last refurbished in the 1990s. the construction to replace them was supposed to start of the summer but they are still waiting on the bleachers to arrive. they were okay for soccer and graduation but apparently not for football. The story is longer but lets just say the lawyers are making the decisions.
  21. I had a boss told me to lower my expectations of other people and I'll be much happier and he is right.
  22. Don't get me started on this one. There was a small hole between a riser and some seating where the band sat and a few places where it is sagging between the supports. The original plan our brilliant former superintendent had was to move the first couple games until construction was complete. The families(especially seniors) found out and got them to come up with alternative solutions. Seniors missing home football games was not an option. The next one was to close the home side and put everyone on the visitor side while the home side was being worked on. Then during the season switch and close the visitor side to complete it. Now that they are STILL waiting on the bleachers to arrive, they decided the visitor side isn't safe enough(even though they were going to start everyone over there). The loss of common sense in this world just baffles me. There is lots more to the story but I'll just end it there. GW fans were good last weekend as far as I have heard. There are a couple games where it will be interesting having everyone on the same side.
  23. Gavin Cormany has transferred and is reclassifying to 2025. Elijah Kelly has transferred to Miller School and is reclassifying to 2025 as well. I have heard nothing official on whether Rick Cormany will retire from coaching but I expect he will so he can go watch Gavin and Cam play. If he does retire, Ben Fisher is likely the next coach and is behind many of the concepts the team uses. Its a big loss of talent but the pipeline is strong. This year will be a struggle losing the top two scorers but the future is bright.
  24. Blacksburg did not look very good. They have a couple bright spots but they aren't going to be very good. I agree with your view of Radford. Offense will need a RB to step up. The offense will go as 7 goes. Capable receivers but other than 18, not as good as Baylor and Prioleau. LIke last year, there is a lack of depth. I expect a couple freshmen to get extended playing time to improve the depth. They are running a new defense so we'll see how well that works.
