    I heard from somebody who is a very reliable source that a recently resigned HC was selected for Castlewood job. Recent as in past 4-5 years. Wise Co guy. Not saying a name don’t wanna distribute bad information if my guy is incorrect. But hasn’t done me wrong yet. 

    Was your reliable source “reliable”?

  2. 3 minutes ago, GC HOKE said:

    4 I think.  One was an interception on a hail mary at the end of the half.  The other three were fumbles and very costly.

    5 - four lost fumbles and the interception.  GC put the ball on the ground on several other occasions that they were able to recover.  No other way to say it, it was just plain ugly. 

  3. I agree I watched Floyd beat Patrick Henry last Friday in bluefield then watched wise play them today it was 14 0 after one and 31 7 at the half and 4 of those points where foul shots 77 31 was the final I think memory not as good as it was so these two teams would be a great game to see Floyd could have been off a little and wise might have played their best game but after seeing both play once I would put my money on wise by a hair

     

    Not to nitpick but it was 40-7 @ half, 77-33 final. Wise Central actually came out colder than I had seen them early on but go in tempo. I have no horse in the race but a Floyd-Central game would be a great game to witness IMHO.

  4. Listen guys......2 or 3 of those guys are the Falconman and Southbounds of the CMD board. I honestly dont think they even support Battle, just looking to stir up a big pot of s*&t

     

    I beg to differ, most of them making the noise have been on the CMD board for quite some time and are established posters that in the past used to be fairly reasonable. The one JSB fan leading the charge with idiotic posts leaves no question to what his identity happens to be.

     

    Nope, no Falconman or Southbound there - they're the real deal and it's very obvious at that.

  5. And just look at the schedules, not a lot of difference in strength (VHS's is a little tougher, but not by that much). Both teams beat Abingdon and GC and VHS beat a down Tazewell team, a down Chilhowie team, a down Radford team (who almost beat VHS), and lost to Union, who is a good team, but has been a bit up and down this season. And of course TN High would beat either team.

     

    Here is a list in order of the 2012 strength of schedule for Division 2 teams within the state according to opponent's rating up to this point from the VHSL reference website:

     

     

    1. Gate City

    2. Arcadia

    3. Glenvar

    4. Union

    5. Gretna

    6. Lee

    7. Graham

    8. Nelson County

    9. Page

    10. William Monroe

    11. Clarke County

    12. Stonewall Jackson

    13. Manassas Park

    14. Floyd County

    15. George Mason

    16. Chatham

    17. Wilson Memorial

    18. Stuarts Draft

    19. Amelia County

    20. Fort Chiswell

    21. Washington & Lee

    22. King William

    23. Nottoway

    24. Bluestone

    25. Central (Woodstock)

    26. Lebanon

    27. James River (Buchanan)

    28. Virginia High

    29. Goochland

    30. Randolph-Henry

    31. Luray

    32. Windsor

    33. Grayson County

    34. Essex

    35. Dan River

    36. East Rockingham

    37. Buckingham County

    38. Madison County

    39. Appomattox

    40. Buffalo Gap

    41. Nandua

    42. John Battle

    43. Riverheads

    44. Giles

    45. Strasburg

    46. Wise Central

    47. Grundy

     

    I'd say Virginia High's schedule is a little stronger myself.

  6. AA has to be Richlands.

     

    A JI Burton, Union or Clintwood, JS Battle is in the mix. Im gonna say Clintwood, once they get the kinks worked out they will be a tough team to beat. Their D is solid(as always) and the O will start rolling

     

    I agree to a certain point, however the jury is still out on some of those mentioned.

  7. Very nice, you post on here about how a D-4 Abingdon "shocked the world" by losing to a D-2 team who finished last season @ 5-6 & lost numerous skilled position players to graduation of that team from last year, telling people on here to "man up" and admit they were wrong? Then you turn around and call me an idiot due to me expressing my opinion? Wow, sounds like you want to be heard but you can't handle the opinions of others - especially when it gives you a reality check.

     

    What do you expect people to say, "Wow, that loss to a team with an enrollment around half your size that finished below .500 was impressive - please accept our apologies!" Messageboards such as this one as well as others aren't set up for you a la Burger King where you can always "have it your way", and that goes for everyone else here as well. If you're going to come on here and start pleading for apologies in the way you have for a loss to a team given the info above you're going to have to "man up" and take some criticism yourself.

  8. Gate City lost 2 of the 3 "tough" games on their schedule last season and went on to win the state championship. Because of being 8-2 in the regular season no one (outside of themselves obviously) gave them any chance in the postseason. If you would look at the schedule from last year and compare it to this year you would notice that it is actually a tougher schedule this season.

     

    Yes they lost a lot to graduation but they're still pretty competitive.
