Region C  , Wythe, PM, Covington and Narrows the only ones to challenge Galax. In D, Chilhowie and unless someone surprises, that’s it. Usually after 4-5 games you can tell more.

Didn’t ruin America but he didn’t do anything for manufacturing(like other presidents before him). Benghazi and the mysterious video.. The number of Americans on welfare alltime high. A record 20% on food stamps in 2013 & 2014. Taxpayers lost 25 billion dollars on Obama’s bailout of General Motors and Chrysler. Chrysler isn’t even an American company any more. It’s now owned by an Italian company, Fiat. Obama’s campaign contributors at Solyndra were handed 535 million dollars of taxpayer money that the Obama Administration knew they would never be able to pay back before they gave it to them. The IRS targeted Obama’s political enemies including Christian groups, pro-Israel groups, and most prominently, Tea Party groups. The Obama Administration had refused to cooperate with the investigation or hold anyone accountable for the illegal behavior.  Numerous donors to Mitt Romney were audited by the IRS after giving him large contributions. Obama took 700 billion dollars out of Medicare to put into Obamacare.  Instead of calming people down, Obama helped to turn Americans against each other racially be inserting himself into the Trayvon Martin case.  Obama created so much racial animosity by attacking the police when they had done nothing wrong in the Henry Louis Gates case that he had to have a ridiculous “beer summit” to try to undo the damage. The Department of Justice failed to pursue a voter intimidation case against members of the New Black Panthers because they were black and liberal. Former DOJ official J Christian Adams quit over the case and “accused his former employer of instructing attorneys in the civil rights division to ignore cases that involve black defendants and white victims.” Despite the fact that Barack Obama claimed to believe that marriage should be between one man and one woman when he was running for President in 2008, his Department of Justice asked states attorney general to refuse to defend their states’ bans on gay marriage in court. He released 5 Taliban terrorists In exchange for deserter Bowe Bergdahl. I could go on but won’t. I will say that the only politician to not take an IPO would probably be Rand Paul Senator Kentucky

Grayson lost 2 receivers that were 70% of there offense

It’s not the same, your missing skill positions. If you have 18 players come out and you have 14 that are flag football players than you shouldn’t field a 8 man team either.Some schools are having trouble fielding girls basketball teams. Would you watch 3on 3 in b-ball 

Mark wants the coaches to keep the kids interested by playing them all.  That also is some of the problem at lower levels that you touched on, some coaches want to pick the best players and not teach let’s say your worst 10. You have to teach all the kids and let them have fun along the way.

I have watched and coached 8 man. I will not attend 8 man football. If it comes down to it, my Friday nights will be free.

There are so many reasons outside of concussion talk. Football is time consuming along with hard play which all of you know. A lot of kids don’t want to put in the time and you have some parents say it’s ok because it’s one less travel to worry about. A commitment to football also has to come from the parents as with other sports.This isn’t the case for all but part of it. Add video games and entitlement attitude and the teaching of non-competition( I have actually heard a parent say that scoring should not be kept in jv ball. I asked this parent if I was interviewing your son/daughter for a job opening that I shouldn’t look at their gpa- she said of course you should-so it was sports in general.) The coaching I have done I have not seen one concussion in 3rd-7th grade during a 5 year span not saying there hasn’t been one. I also think there is no sense of pride in playing for your school like there used to be even if you don’t start.

Was at fort/jib scrimmage. On first series jib scored on 10th from about 60 yards on deep fade from Houston Thacker. Fort able was sacked once on their first possession but they scored on about 7-8 play rushing for 85 yards on series. Second 10 play series mostly alternates ended after about 40yds for jib and 70yds for Fort. Next 10 play series for jib ended after 40 yds and fort rushed about yards for score. At end of 10 play part of scrimmage fort 2-1. On to regular play. First series Thacker hit receiver on 3rd and 7 on what looked like skinny post for about 20-25yd td. Fort drove and fumbled about 25yd line on their series. Next series jib drove to about 50 and punted. Jib held fort on next series. Jib defense adjusted and played much better in regular play. On last series substitutes jib punted and fort strode with scrimmaging ending fort 3-2. Jib has gotten much bigger along the lines. I had watched them play twice last year. I think Thacker is the best division 1 QB in west followed by Cale. Also stopped and watched chilhowie/honaker

(1) Bluefield
(2) Pulaski Co.
(3) Graham
(4) Richlands
(5) Radford
(6) Virginia High
(7) Union
(8) Ridgeview
(9) Chilhowie
(10) Galax
 
will definitely change after attending scrimmages

Josh Wingate named head coach will run offense and  Murdock defense coordinator. Fort will probably go back to div 1 2019 and will be loaded talent wise

Thank goodness Fort has a good principal in place to make the next hire. He will put Fort students/players first. 

Been telling everyone same thing. 7th grade has good numbers 14 and about 6 super good players. 8th grade 12-14 and 10 super good players. 9th grade a really good group also. If assistant coaches son comes out of home school with 7th grade group than WOW

went through it quickly after week 11
Appomattox 259-265
Glenvar 260-266
Giles 258-261
Didn't pick any upsets doing this with all relative games. Glenvar has a
slighty better than 50-50 chance to overtake Appomattox for one seed.
Will be tight. Will check after this weekends games. Giles has a slight
chance only to take 2 spot unless glenvar looses. This wasn't done
mathematically but likely.
if fort(228-241) beats graham they should take fourth over Floyd(224-230).
Gretna would be sixth(221-225) but
didn't work dan river or Martinsville yet
will work for fort loosing-they would more than likely be 6-7

Galax next, going against Dixon, hope we can cross midfield 

GW has 10-11 seniors that are very good players, something that EVERY 1A school in the west doesn't have. You have a couple more seniors that I'm not sure about. The other schools in the west don't have those 10-11 seniors. There are some schools that have 14-17 seniors but only 2-3 could compete with those 10-11 you have athletically. Just the way it is. Coaching has to make a difference.

When he was at Grayson, many tickled  to see him leave

Fort 32, tom hale coached one year and numbers have been down from the fifties ever since. Half freshman and sophomores
