trublue 939 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 G-man/Lance.....pls. issue/design a participation certificate w/a "fill-in" blank______________ That way all the naysayers that think THEY know who should have been named to the "ALL" district team will have that void filled by this obvious oversight by the SWD coaches (whom put in all those countless hours, days, months that equates to negative monetary compensation) and apparently got it wrong. Hopefully, w/the issuance of this certificate this thread will now morph into extinction. With this "fill in" the blank _________________________________ certificate ALL are now recognized.....now the universal clap, clap, clap.....GOOD JOB everyone. How 'bout let's go get some pizza????

dawgs05 10 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 Roy Christian for 3 years has had one job and thats to clog the holes and let Brett Clayborne, Shane Wicks and Derek Jackson chase the ball down and make the tackles considering the fact that in the last three years those have been the best 3 linebackers in the district I would say that Roy does his job extremely well. Glad to see the big guy get his credit where it is due. the Best LB in the District was Rhudy from Tazewell.....hands down.....there is no debate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNT 10 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 And like I said before, the picks aren't right. I know for a fact that Nicley kid from Marion had tied with Lanning with tackles for the year and caused more turnovers. Briscoe led the district in tackles.They didn't get credit where credit is due.I like the picks from Tazwell but I know a that some guys didn't get what they deserve!!!!!!!!!!!! that doesnt matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBlueAlum 12 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 naw they havent been the best three backers Dude, you can't give anyone any credit at all can you?!?! Richlands' defense has been their bread and butter for the past 5 regional championships. They must be doing something right! I don't know who you are, I'm sure you're a good athlete, but give some props to the other guys when they deserve it... considering you haven't beat them since you've been playing varsity football.

tbgfan 856 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 naw they havent been the best three backers Clayburne was 1st team All-State defensive linebacker his senior year, Wicks, his senior year, was SWD defensive player of the year, Region IV defensive co-player of the year and first team All-State on defense. I would think Jackson with his stats should be first team on state also. 3 excellent defensive personnel on the Blues team. Wicks also played after the ACL injury, at Tazewell his senior year, and still earned all these honors, which speak loudly about their skills and accomplishments.

JamesL_CcLB34 10 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 the Best LB in the District was Rhudy from Tazewell.....hands down.....there is no debate haha well if you saw me play against tazewell i can see why you are saying that, but in my defense i came out in the 3rd quarter w/ cramps tried to go back in but they wouldn't go away so yea.. also that was the first week i had been moved from outside to middle linebacker but that doesn't really matter... but both of my calves locked up on a punt that i fell down on and i basically had to pull my feet up to make them stop lol.. rest of the year i drank a thing of pedialyte b4 the game and didn't have problems w/ that anymore.

dawgs05 10 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 What about #21 Corner at DB hes a good hard hitting player who has alot of heart. Corner is a hard hitter and an really good defender for THS. But I hate to knock on him cause I am the biggest dawg supporter on here, ask any of the RHS fans, but Corner needs to work on one thing and he will be the complete package.......quit leading with his head cause he could get serrously injured that way and plus he also misses quite a few tackles that should be easily made. The kid hits with enough power that he shouldn't have to lead with his head on every tackle. Keep your head up Corner, break down and square up and lay the wood.......all of us Tazewell fans know you are a super hard hitter.....and after the playoff game, I believe Joel Elswick would agree...haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know who you are, I'm sure you're a good athlete, but give some props to the other guys when they deserve it... considering you haven't beat them since you've been playing varsity football. Stats still shows that the kid from Marion had the most tackles and another one was second(tied with Lanning) and forced more turnovers.They didn't get their credit.So I guess because your team doesn't go all the way, a player shouldn't get what he deserves? I don't think so. If you are good,than you should be rewared for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so. If you are good,than you should be rewared for it. Maybe they should give out participation trophies so no one gets their feelings hurt. There are more to football than stats...just because you had a few more tackles than another guy doesn't make you better... it could mean the ball came your way a few more times, or a number of other things. Besides, you're making it way too obvious that you are TNT posing as a Tazewell fan to make your point.

BigD4VT 11 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 I doubt coaches spend much time pouring over stats when they pick these teams. They just go with the guys that impressed them most. Individual stats don't mean a whole lot in high school football. Starters on the better teams usually spend much of the 4th quarter, if not part of the 3rd on the bench, while those on losing teams stay in the game and accumulate stats against the JV.
