This!  I read all season about how he was a bad coach and Radford may lose in the finals but he is a good coach.  I questioned hiring a coach with a losing record but look what he has done.  We could only field a JV or middle school team and now we have enough for both.  He is building and growing a program in a sport that is dying.  The kids really respond to him.  I think it's time to end the personal attacks.

Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin' around
They say you got a boyfriend
You're out late every weekend
They're talkin' about you and it's bringin' me down   But I know the neighborhood
And talk is cheaper when the story is good
And the tales grow taller on down the line
But I'm telling you, babe
That I don't think it's true, babe
And even if it is, keep this in mind   You take it on the run, baby
If that's the way you want it, baby
Then I don't want you around
I don't believe it
Not for a minute
You're under the gun
So you take it on the run   REO Speedwagon has entered the discussion.

They'd be "killin'" it out there.
One downside: every pregame meal would consist of mustard and biscuits, potted meat, and french fried taters. 

Reading the game preview on VAPreps. Not a single mention of AJ Ashworth. I hope Essex ignores him too!!!

I'm hearing rumors that, in an unprecedented act of revenge, Richlands has pulled off the unthinkable and hired Stephen Maganbauer as the ultimate "eff you" to Salem. 

🏆You win! 🏆

Grayson County is having a hard time adjusting to playing down in Class 1 basketball. They've gotten smashed the first two games out of the gate. Need to find some more homeschool kids to rebuild, I guess.

Tommy Tuberville? He keeps showing up where no one wants him, maybe this is his next stop.

Non-district scheduling is something that generally gets agreed upon a few years in advance. Those Giles, Fort Chiswell and Grundy matchups would have looked very different 4 to 6 years ago when the conversations likely began for these series. 
But please, keep showing us just how little you actually know about the process. Which is sad for someone that is supposed to be a coach. 

It's actually pretty common for public-sector interviews to take place even when the hiring party already knows the eventual outcome. Public-sector interviews are a requirement to meet state and federal law. 
Why interview if you know someone else will ultimately be hired? One never knows what may happen down the road. Make a good impression in the interview and set yourself up for a possible return in a year or two if the situation changes. In the late 90's, I interviewed for a position with a multinational full service engineering firm based in Norfolk. Even though they were a private company, they had to meet state had federal guidelines for public-sector employment based on the military contracts the company held. They knew who they were going to hire well before the interview process began. I went in knowing I wasn't getting the job but decided to put my best foot forward anyway. I was young and could use the interview practice and experience. Four days after the interview, I got a call from their Roanoke branch asking if I would be interested in relocation. I spent the next 8-years there.
Dress for the job you want, not the job you have!

The good news, it's Billy Bob Thorton!....

...The bad news, it's not the version Richlands was hoping for.
