JR31 10 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 richlands shouldnt have a bad team, if the people that should start acually do start they will have size going for them but the only problem is they wont have any real point guard. im pretty sure the player that will be at the point hasnt ever played it before but the down low game should b e really good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmh8_2011 10 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 After losing Ben, Richlands isn't going to be that good. Tazewell has a new team with the guys from pocy. They will have a better year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pocy4 10 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 I think tazewell will come out on top this year they got there five starters back but brandon paley and alan lancaster also john corner will help out tazewell alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfPak 10 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Graham is going to suprise people. They are bringing back Jeffers and Palmer and Dennah and now have Kyle Harris. They beat tazewell,bluefield and alot of other teams over the summer. and yes those teams brought most of their starters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmh8_2011 10 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Summer Ball doesn't matter. Most of those teams didn't bring all there players. Some had football practice. Tazewell has a new floor with a new team and hopefully a better winning attitude. If they play like they are capable they will win hands down.

pauley10 10 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Tazewell recieved some quality players from pocy. Brandon Pauley 6'1, Zach Pauley 5'10, Alan Lancaster 6'3, Taviaz Wilborn 6'3, John Corner 6'0, Eugene Hilton 5'10, and Nick Bortle 6'4 will all be playing ball this year.

WaveFan09 50 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 im just wanting to know why we struggle in football, and were at least average or better in the rest of our sports?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grundy10 10 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 People let their personal feelings get in the way of them playing the sport for the love of the game. If they dont like a coach, they dont play. The kids now take things way too personal instead of just leaving everything on the field or court and not taking it into their everyday lives. They think playing time should be given to them instead of earning it. Â Grundy has done well in Basketball and Wrestling but are still well below average RIGHT NOW in Baseball, Football, and Track. One other reason for this is for whatever reason, the majority of the athletes at Grundy now are small, physically. There arent many big, strong kids walking the halls like there has been in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You dont have to be tall or strong. You have to want more than the other team. If you don't want it you cant win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flash21 10 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Grundy replaced 4 starters (same as this year) for the 2006-2007 season and still won the district.

DARWOOD 10 Report Share Posted October 19, 2008 Graham will be the best they have alot of returning players and new ones to the team then tazewell , Marion, richlands, abingdon , Grundy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesL_CcLB34 10 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 well i think you have shown you have no idea what your talking about because you didn't even mention carroll (yea they are in the swd too in case you didn't know) who along w/ abingdon was one of the top 2 team in the district last year so i think they should be one of the favorites right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are going to be okay this year but they arent going to do anything special like yall think they will. the best teams are going to be marion and abingdon. Tazwell might do pretty good too but arent going to be as good as yall say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Oh the greatest basketball player from Marion has spoken if anyone has any question about the SWD for basketball just ask him. You haven't seen anyone play so how do you know Tazewell isn't going to be as good as everyone is saying oh but if someone gets on here and says something good about great Marion on here you'll totally agree.

Â Graham isn't a "sleeping giant"...it will be a successful season for them if they win half their games and I don't see that happening. Â And no, they won't make it to State. They'll be lucky to make it to the Region tournament...no, I take that back, everybody makes the Region tournament now but their stay will be short....
