  1. It is a rumor because it is as yet not been announced. I have heard from 2 good sources that the announcement would be made at the VHSL meeting on the 8th(?)

     

    You very well could be right and the whole thing is a farce however the rumors of GC dropping to the LPD started about a year before they did (I was told by MANY GC folks that they would never ever drop during that same year) The rumors of Va High Dropping started about 2 and a half years ago and 6 months ago they announced there dropping to A. So Just because it is still only a rumor I am not ready to dismiss it.

  2. I think you could add 1 or 2 teams to the BDD pretty easy.

     

    The latest on the DC consolidation is "Waiting on fed money" (since the consolidation plan was blessed by the Corp of engineers I am told it is all but a done deal) I have been told by some that should know that as soon as that money comes down the pipe they will break ground....now when will that happen? I think the only date I have ever seen was 2006(this year) and even if the money comes through this year I figure it would be 2 or 3 years before a new HS would be ready for new students (that is my guess only)

     

    Wise Co. has pretty much shut down consolidation talks for the next several years and it will be interesting how things play out over there the next few years as a larger peace of the school funding pie goes to building maintenance for schools with 150-200 students

  3. I heard a rumer that Grundy was dropping to single A at the begining of the next cycle (2007-2008) I assume they would be in the BDD if it happens.

     

    #1 Is there anyone that can conferm or shoot down this rumer?

     

    #2 If it is true how long before the Tazwell Co. schools join them in single A status (All but Richlands are already single A size and Richlands is smaller size wise than Lee and would be in a simular situation as Lee was travel wise if all the Single A sized AA schools drop.

  4. I think Honaker has alot of potential they run the option as well as anyone at the HS level and have a huge line that comes off the ball well (However this same line seems to have some conditioning issues) Bostic was under center the whole game so I do not know how there backup would do if Bostic were to go down during the season but as long as he is the starter they have a gamebreaker type player that could score on any play. There backs are hard nosed runners but lack break away speed. On D I think teams with speed will hurt them but overall they are above average. I don't think they can beat a team like Richlands but if they can beat Haysi this year they will win there district and should be a better team in regional play because of there upgraded schedule.

  5. BluegrassPreps.com Message board confirms that Grundy had there scrimmage in Hazard last week(unless there is another Grundy out there somewhere). I don't know why everything would be so hush hush but I do not buy it was fear of being scouted because scouting scrimmages is a wast of time 95% of the time with Jamborees and Benefit games only being slightly better

  6. I had heard that Grundy had a first scrimmage against Chilhowie (I think) but no new news since then. Was Grundy able to get a 10th game this year? I never realized what a pain in the butt scheduling could be.

  7. I had heard that Burtion had dropped them I think coaches should show a little more respct for other teams if Grundy can not find a scrimage somewhere they may have a tough opening two or three weeks of the season.

  8. I had heard a lot about Grundy before this week but not a peep since then any word on whether Grundy looks like the real deal or if there were more holes to fill than first thought?
