Two legends coaching in the Belfry vs. Bell County game. About 800 victories between Haywood and Dudley.

Mance and Richland's always struggles with a true wing t team. Why? I don't know.

Gate City removed just about all of their starters at the 9 minute mark of the TV game. GC had that time plus a ten minute break in between the game with Hurley to rest. It was a good hard hitting game between two teams.

TW said their schedule was full when Hurley's AD called needing a game. Conflicting story there with the TW poster. Hurley just filled their schedule in January. Holston and Northwood were the last two signed. So I kind of doubt the schedule was full when the Hurley AD called the TW AD. I'm not sure when the AD called but he has been working on the new schedule since the beginning of the 2018 season. So let's say since August. Scheduling schools is tough when you are isolated like Hurley or TW. Hurley had three teams drop out last minute due to either finding a closer game (Tolsia WV, Harlan Ind, Montcalm) or schedule conflict (Phelps, KY). Phelps, since they have got better, is a good gate money game that both schools lose on. The schools are only 17 miles apart and the Pike, Co school bus and Buchanan Co school buses travel on the same routes. Not sure of the dates but Hurley's new schedule is Rye Cove, Auburn, Riverview, Patrick Henry, Northwood, Holston, Grundy, Honaker, Tug Valley, Twin Valley Side note.....a poster made a funny remark about Riverview and Hurley both dropping Tazewell. The teams did because they wanted the teams to travel to Tazewell back to back years. Offered each school a small sum. Both AD's said no thanks we will fine someone else. Union wanted the same as well.

Tazewell in a mild upset. Tazewell has better skill guys on offense. Fiser numbers have been down somewhat since the Hurley game and Tazewell has speed to catch him if he breaks loose on a sweep.

I hear rumblings of Plymal stepping down after this year at Grundy.

Common opponent is Riverview, WV Tazewell gave up 38 points and 504 yards of offense. Hurley gave up 6 points and 148 yards in offense. Might not be a whole lot but its something to think about.

Hell, Grundy couldn't get past Burton in the first round . What makes you think they had anything for Chilhowie?

Northwood is coming to Hurley on Saturday. 1 P.M. Rye Cove vs. Holston at 10 a.m. Coach Moore has the Jamboree schedule on his FB page.

Have y'all forgot that Tester has another son in Hurley? He is about 6 or 7 years old and is just now getting into sports. I don't see Tester getting back into a head coaching roll anytime soon. He wants that free time to spend with BOTH sons.

The thing that everyone has failed to talk about is Chilhowie's defense. The d-line is hard to trap because they dont shoot up the field when turned loose for the trap....they either squeeze down or sit I think their middle linebackers flow very good and are 2 of the best in SWVA. Chilhowie also has good run support from their d backs especially the safety. Don't sleep on the Warriors. Wouldn't be surprised at all if they beat Rivershead.

Ryan said from top to bottom. If he said top 2 from each Region then it's a different conversation.

Region B had 2 0-10 teams and 2 more with losing records in the playoffs so I think they are the worst.

Who's 1st string defense? Hurley's? Iverson you talking about practice? Practice? lol

I know Narrows is #1 but if they win over Galax it kind of is a upset because Galax has been really good for the past couple of years. I think Galax wins.

Burton beat the #3 and #2 team in the playoffs and it's hard to beat a team twice in a season (see Grundy). Burton's offense is clicking now and they have something Castlewood and Hurley didn't have and that is they can pass well enough to keep Chilhowie from stacking the box. Could be an upset but I still think Chilhowie wins but it will be closer than the 36-0 score earlier in the season.

Guys, Coach Tester isn't going to Central. Yes, he has a son playing football in Wise county but he has a wife and a son in Hurley that plays sports in Hurley. Greg might or might not step down as coach at Hurley. but it isn't to replace Luke or anything else you might have heard, the only rea son he would step down is to be a parent to both kids. I'm sure he will make a decision soon if he is coming back for a 13th year. Greg has a lot of kids coming back next year off a playoff team because a majority of them were 9th and 10th starting with only 3 Seniors starting every game. The well ain't dry and it will be hard to walk away for any coach.

Parry McCluer is 6 and they beat GW which is a 3.

Upset Alert in Grundy. Burton 19 Grundy 14 getting late in the 4th

Is this the only game that has announced a day and starting time? This should be a good game.....I think.

I think but Helper knows for sure. #8 Castlewood vs. #1Chilhowie #7 Thomas Walker vs. #2 Patrick Henry #6 J I Burton vs. #3 Grundy #5 Hurley vs. #4 Eastside

WAXM reporting Twin Springs wins 26-21. I assume that is accurate because it's the only score that I heard tonight for that game.

Hurley only plays 3 upperclassmen but this Friday there were 4 are various times but not the whole ballgame. The rest are 9th and 10th. 1 junior starts.
