[ QUOTE ] happy easter??? i say happy Resurrection... remember the reason. and look in the BDT tomorrow morning. you'll see a story about First Assembly of God. our youth group (and adult leaders) walked 16 miles today with a cross. will walk 15 tomorrow, and 4 on Sunday... a total of 35 miles. we're doing it to raise money for missions, but more importantly, we're doing it to represent the path Jesus walked from judgement to calvery... and hopefully, it'll make a difference in lives. and if you see a guy with a funny looking Giligan hat - well, be good to the old feller [/ QUOTE ] I did that, and to be honest it was tireing, but worth it. So many people honked and waved and helped out, it was truly awesome. It was my second year doing it, and hopefully not my last. This year was more about people and not the money (we still raised over $12,000) but we had 60 people out there one time or another.

[ QUOTE ] Most 40 times you hear from people around here are exadgerated, they're just poorly timed. Caleb probably is a good 4.7 or 4.8. Very few people can run 4.5 or under. [/ QUOTE ] But pretty much Caleb is most likely to have one, eh?

[ QUOTE ] yes but do you hear those few good players that go to bad schools get the big D-1 scholarships??? they are more than likely to be scouted if they were on a good team...scouts arent gonna go to a team's game if they are 0-6 and just watch that one player.... [/ QUOTE ] Neol Devine, supposedly one of the best High Schoolers ever, is going to a 4-6 school if I am not mistaken. But he is regarded as the next Deion, actually better.

[ QUOTE ] Beano doesn't know what he is talking about....bad teams can have some great individual players....i can't believe i just had to say that [/ QUOTE ] One good example Bradley Ricker from last years Battle team. If he woulda been on a team with one or two p[layers who can block really well, he woulda been All Regiin at least. They pretty much ran him dry from using him for everything.

[ QUOTE ] but the individuals reflect on the team....when all is said and done...it mainly boils down to the teams... [/ QUOTE ] So your saying that if any of these players went to Battle and made the same plays, their aren't counted as good because the rest of the team is terrible (no disrespect to Battle).... It's not one players fault that he was born to go to a second teir football schol.

We had a track meet yesterday and Marion was there.... They pretty confident about beating yall. I hope yall do beat them though, but the way they make it sound as if it won't even be close.

[ QUOTE ] yeah...what was Tazewell's district record last year??? [/ QUOTE ] Its not talking about records, its talking about certain individuals.

[ QUOTE ] George Damon played defensive end behind bovenizer at graham last year. he will start there this year and will have a big year. Gavin Angle plays for tazewell. He is going to the nike camp at Clemson here soon and he is being recruited by Clemsonn among others. He is 6'3 280 pounds and recently broke the bench press record at tazewell. If you havent heard about him ask any lineman who blocked him last year and see what they say. I talked to one offensive lineman who played last year and they said he was by far the hardest assigment they had all year. [/ QUOTE ] Did he play aginst Abingdon? All I remember about Tazewells line was how good Burton was, so I dunno. What was his #?

19, shold end up with 30+ for just this year.

[ QUOTE ] QB-Justin McCracken RB-Caleb Jennings, Steven Brown WR-Brett Claybourne OL-Gavin Angle, George Damon DB-TJ Carper LB-Josh Broyles DL-Gavin Angle DE-George Damon [/ QUOTE ] If you dont mind me asking, who is Damon and Angle? I can tell from the other post who the others are, but never heard of these two. QB-Zach Jesse, I wanna see what he will do at Lebanon next year. RB-Caleb Jennings, Duran Carson, and my sleeper pick of RJ Whited (if used) WR-Tyler Bailey and my other sleeper Chas Vencille (if he plays) OL-Derrick McKnight Db-Not enough info from around here. LB-Clayburne could get this spot. DL- ??? DE- ???

[ QUOTE ] Virginia High is going to be loaded with team speed this year. They were all sophmores and juniors last year. They've got a good rb and one of the best db's around in carter. [/ QUOTE ] Everytime you talk, its about Carter....maybe you is Carter? haha.... But the speed from Abingdon is Bailey, Duran Casron, and Zack Smith. Others are fast, just pointing out the more obvious ones.

[ QUOTE ] they actually have several seniors that has been stuck behind the guys that graduated last year. silcox is one of the best hitters in sw va. [/ QUOTE ] 6 seniors, sorry for my low ball number haha. The best hitter so far on the team os probably Looney, leading the team in RBI's andf tied for BA, while also pitching some on the mound. But mainly they are relying on Junoirs and sophmores mostly on the team, because of the star P (Malone) and hitters are mostly non seniors.

[ QUOTE ] Neil something is number 11. He's probably Abingdon's best player. He can make some amazing shots. [/ QUOTE ] Neil Henry, who is only two goals away for the seasons record for most goals in a season. AHS has 9 more games to go to haha. Seems like the guy just maneuvers sometimes without effort, its crazy.

[ QUOTE ] Is Abingdon that good or did Richlands just play a bad game? I really thought this might be Richlands' year to make some serious noise. When I saw the score I thought it was a typo. [/ QUOTE ] Abingdon is that good. Undefeated so far I believe and they pretty good, but pretty young/ Only three or four senoirs I believe.

[ QUOTE ] SWD-Ben Mulkey Richlands [/ QUOTE ] I have been saying it for awhile, Mulkey is really good. Plus he has a younger brother too who is decent for his age. Abingdon will not rely on one player like the past teams have been (Scorsmore and Perdue). This years team will be a real team.

I agree with him. Sure he is a little cocky, but who isn't? He has a right to be more than others. But once you get to know him, he cool.

I think it was a april fools. No way Caleb would leave his senior year.

Who scored for Abingdon?

Yeah, messed up my bracket, but I still hated the way Redick went out. Im not a Duke fan, but he couldas went out better than that.

Go Gonzaga. I have them and UCONN going to the championship.

I hope Jesse is ok though. It's good Taylor and Dennis scored. Is Romelo playing? I haven't heard much on who is playing for Richlands though.

Well, my bracket is still good. Had Texas A&M beating Cuse, but I had Seton Hall beating Witchita AND Tennessee, so I am out there. How has everyone else faired?

You wanna make a group on there for all of us from SWVAFOOTBALL? I'll start one if yall are intrested.

Abingdon has a really good team. Coach wants to keep under the radar, don't wanna make no noise until everything is over. They look pretty good. And Ik now Taszewell will have that one guy, who supposed to be awesmoe. Good luck though.

Thanks for the support though
