generallyspeaking

You’re absolutely right about that but man there’s nothing I love more than watching a big bumbling stumbling fullback break one loose for a big gain. Mike f’n Alstott baby. Need I say more

I know it sounds crazy man but it’s not unrealistic. If you’ve actually watched any of the games I mentioned you’d know. Ridgeview is a completely different team than when they played and I think the Generals would put 40 on them now. Never did i say Lee would beat Graham but I don’t think they’re gonna lay down and get rolled.

I think Lee will put up a fight against the G-Men. Their record doesn’t really reflect their ability. If a couple plays had went the other way against Rye Cove, Battle, GC, and Abingdon (all one score games) then they’re 8-2. Had Lee played the current version of Ridgeview instead of the week 5 version then they could possibly even be sitting at 9-1. Lots of ifs and buts I know but the Generals are missing a couple key players that would’ve made a big impact in those games they’ve lost.

Abingdon over Lee 56-43. Nearly 100 pts scored between both teams

Absolutely. I have to bust out the binoculars when I’m there. Fantastic view for a sunset tho

Pendergraft had a rough start the first 2 games but more than made up for the other night against Pineville. Had 6 passing TDs and about 250yds.

Ridgeview’s entire middle school team are supposed to be freshman/sophomores so I reckon they’re pretty good. Their JV not so much

He played youth league at lee for a couple seasons so it counts lol

I’d argue Keith Chandler is a difference maker who came from Lee. #5 Lowery is pretty solid for the Bears too. Another Lee guy.

Thanks. Didn’t feel like navigating through all those pages so i figured i’d start a new thread lol

Who all is playing tonight? I know Lee hosts Honaker in a benefit game but I haven’t heard of any others playing

44 is the record for central? I could’ve sworn Isaiah McAmis scored 45 against Lee a few years back. Maybe he just wore that jersey number or something I don’t remember.

Anyone know the final for Gate City and Battle? Gate City’s twitter had it all the way up to the 3rd Q but they forgot the final score.

I think he’s good enough to play at west point but he’s probably guaranteed to see the field 90% of the time at emory. As far as education goes both are pretty damn good compared to other schools. Being in the service with that degree looks a lot better on a job resume when it’s all said and done however.

Oh I know they’re on here, they just tend not to speak up as much as some folks who think they know the ins and outs of every aspect of the game. I get a good chuckle out of some of the highly opinionated people on here that “know what’s best” for their team. The real coaches aren’t saying much because they don’t have to.

I hear all the football experts on this board will finally be getting their chance to take the helm of their respective teams. Every team in SWVA will go undefeated when these guys take over. 🤣

Hackney is not a good coach and Lee has practically zero size in the post. It’s a team full of guards. Not sure Hackney absorbed anything from his time under Vermillion at Gate City as an assistant either.

Yes they’ll be on there as far as I know. They’re popping up in the feed for upcoming playoff games

I second this notion. Let Turner have that much deserved long vacation. Haha

Just read somewhere that Jones is 6’3 210lbs, I had no idea he was that big. Sure doesn’t look like it on the nfhs camera. Lee might have some trouble solo tackling him if that’s his true size.

I think the run game will be key. I know G Huff is gonna show up big in a playoff game plus the offensive and defensive line have played outstanding the last few weeks. There were a couple plays against abingdon where Pendergraft had like 5+ seconds in the pocket untouched. We have had trouble getting to the LB/DB level with blocks but I don’t see that being an issue this game.

If they had a true QB so they could put Anderson out in the slot or something like that they’d be a lot better off. For all the talent that’s come through Union in the last few years i’m surprised they haven’t had any stud QBs (Mitchell’s senior year doesn’t count lol)

After watching VHS and Richlands I’m more confident in the Generals. Lee seems to be much better up front on both sides of the ball. The defense has gotten much better since the first few weeks and I think they’ll be able to make enough plays to pull out the W. Both teams played a weak schedule, but I think Lee certainly played the tougher district games, and they both barely beat Central so it should be pretty close. 45-41 Generals

Ridgeview and Union have as good if not better athletes than VA High

Seeing if I can rile up the Tazewell fans lol Nah i just think the difference is up front. Ridgeview’s o/d-line (most M7 teams for that matter) are big, tough and mean, and they’ve done well against the best lines in the region outside of Graham all year so I don’t think the Bulldogs will give them anything they can’t handle.
