GMan 3,569 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 I really don't know why I didn't apply for it. I probably wouldn't have gotten it...they'd have given it to a "tenured" school employee... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hokie07 11 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Well if you had taken it, there was a lot of potential on that team that maybe, just maybe, you could have groomed into a state championship team! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluefieldRocks 14 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 GMan our golf coach? I'm pretty sure if he was yalls coach our senior year. We would have won 0 matches and probly gotten suspended from certain golf courses for fighting with other teams. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would have been no fighting on the golf course...it isn't a contact sport...maybe a little "gamesmanship" here and there, you know, a little cough during someone's backswing, rattling the pocket change while someone is standing over a three-footer, suggesting they don't hit it in the lake or out of bounds, that sort of thing, maybe. But definitely, no fighting... And BTW, I did take Graham's golf team from worst in the SWD, the year before I coached, to the Region Tournament the year I coached them...not too shabby for a hack like me...

bluefieldRocks 14 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 I was there. Yeah, it was called the '80s. Ford was President, Nixon was in the White House and FDR was running this country into the ground. I was bummin' in a hole-in-a-wall town in what is now called Utah. Some fella from Colorado shows up, starts making so called "improvements", right? Before we knew what hit us, the streets are running with late'. It got so bad that a fella that liked to, you know... smoke a little grass or drink a little ripple. Crow like a rooster, maybe challenge the mayor's son to a gentlemen's duel, was "uncouth, against God. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrashDavis 10 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 I thought Gilbert did a really good job at Graham last year, the Blufield players are lucky to have him instead of that dumba** Hubbard. I hope he can keep those sectional titles streak alive with a far less talented team than BHS has had the past 6 or so years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilbert pretty much took over the whole thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaverbaseball 10 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 [ QUOTE ] plus BHS has some real talent on the team.. [/ QUOTE ] Compared to the last 3 years of bluefield baseball..this will be a rebuilding year for them..But they do return starters Warren Furrow, Nick Williams, Chase Joyner, Cody Wassum and Jake Lilly..And im sure Marcus Paterson will start this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GHS189 10 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 yea but graham doesnt have enough players that truly want to be out there...a couple of seniors the only two juniors that will probably play are all we have plus david m..so i think bluefield will be fine....Patterson is a great player i played against him last year...craig C is pretty good too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetMoney55 11 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Bluefield will be set in the outfield as Cody Wassum, Chase Joyner, Daniel Francisco and Marcus Patterson will all rotate in and out. Jake Lilly could also see some time in the outfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaverbaseball 10 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Yes, defensively they will be set pretty much..Pitching they might be a little weak for the beginning of the season..But my main concern is hitting..Jake Lilly and Chase Joyner you won't have to worry about hitting the ball but everyone else poses a little concern.

CrashDavis 10 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 I agree that the hitting will be weak, at least at first. Defense will always be problem for BHS regardless of talent because of the lack of their own field, just see the last 3-6 years. I think the biggest hole for them to fill is catcher, where Lilly has the most varsity experience (and that was only one game). Pitching wise they are a little thin except for furrow, williams, and lyons. i truly believe that by the end of the year Gilbert will have gotten them organized and they will win their fourth sectional title in a row.

GetMoney55 11 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 Lilly and Patterson will be doing the most catching I think. I think theyll switch off for the beginning of the year just to get some good time in and then the coaches will see who best suits it. I say Patterson will end up catching throughout this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaverbaseball 10 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 I see Lilly being a better catcher than Patterson...But we need Lilly somewhere in the infield..So I see Patterson handleing most of the catcher position....If the bats don't carry the team, than Furrow will have to be the guy on the mound to do so..
