EH31 2,533 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 What will I take from this season? The Falcons battled every week and gave their all. Their were 2 games I think they win if Hess plays (Tazewell and Graham), they should have beaten Burton with him. Their were several other games they would have had a chance in with Hess (Carroll, Va High, and Marion). All in all they could have won at least 7 games this season. With all that I said the Falcons battled hard every week and played their hearts out. When I remember this season the thing that I will take out of it is "What could have been?" If Hess comes back next year the Falcons could be real sleeper in the SWD. Keep your heads up Falcons and work hard in the off-season. Go Falcons!!!! you're lou holtz and abingdon is your notre dame.... sad sad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadoball 18 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 maybe next year richlands can put the hometown of all the players in the program like a college team :D Or just maybe, we can continue to beat the p!$$ out of everyone on the football field.

Falconman 44 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 Is anyone on this board stupid enough to think that coach Mance would play an ineligable player??????? Good question? Hmm? Winning comes at a price. Have you not saw the movie "Blue Chips?" I know that is on a college level, but many people from abingdon feel there is some funny business going on down there at the high school level. Just how many transfers do you all have on your team?? (I bet you wont answer that question):D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Observer77 12 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 Why all this talk about a 3-7 team? I would believe that the people of Abingdon that are concerned with their football program should be looking into how they lost to seven teams this season and only defeated three - instead of going on a Tazewell Co. internet messageboard witch hunt...

rjhall71 61 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 why does everyone assume that "A" districts are so much weaker than the almighty "AA"?? not saying that A districts are weaker than AA...but you have to admit that there is a dropoff in team talent between the AA to A level with the only exceptions to me being the LPD and Clinch Mountain..I was just saying that Abingdon would struggle in some A districts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trublue 939 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 O.K. Richlands fans .....again, thread not about you. To respond to such garbage is just adding to the silliness and of course, it's just gonna generate negative "junk" about Richlands. I repeat......you do not need to defend grown adults that have made a decision to move their families to a location of their choice. Again, just don't respond.

For you to be a true fan you may need to read about the history and tradition of the Richlands program. Can you name any players before 2004.

Falconman 44 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 An open discussion is not garbage, it is a debate. But when you have players from another state is one thing, but, to get players from another district school, thats bull. Notice, no one was talking about the Graham player until I brought it up, but facts are facts. Its no secret that you guys want Hess as well. Well, you are not taking our best Falcon!!!

For one thing I don't believe it and second of all I just don't think he is better than Vance. I admit Hess is a pretty good QB but not better than Vance Ya but competition is good for the heart of the team. All this talk about transfers and recruiting reminds me of when I lived in Louisana. Several school in the area where I lived including private schools always got a finger pointed at them over that "stuff". But just like this situation it is simply a good program attracting kids from areas that have subpar programs. They just want to be part of a winning team and tradition. And in some cases it comes down to kids wanting to get noticed and talked about for the next level. And in some cases kids may want to move to get an opportunity that they may not be getting in their current sitution. (i.e Parnell) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I am arguing is would he want to come and not play? We would gladly take anyone who wanted to live and play football at Richlands. I just think it would be very hard for him to get playing time at Richlands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjhall71 61 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 I agree i have two boys that are playing for a sub-par program and both are good players that can play at the next level...

84Cavalier 10 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 Amazing that Abingdon is 3-7, done for the year, and can provoke this much controversey. Absolutely amazing. By the way, IF, Jake Hess comes to Richlands, he WILL start next year. But, this is enough. Let's focus on the playoffs and decent teams for a change. Any other posts on this thread gives credence to the allegation that everyone is jealous of and wants to be Abingdon. Therefore, if you disagree with that, let this one die! I know my username indicates otherwise, however, I have kids in Abingdon and just wish they'd focus on winter sports now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tornadoalltheway12 10 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 I agree with you this thread should die, however you still throw jabs in saying Hess would definetely start. I really don't think so. I have been around Richlands Football for several years now and have watched Hess play in several games for Abingdon . I will say he is a decent quarterback but he is not accustomed to playing in big time games at Abingdon. Jack Vance albeit not in the qb position has played in many big games and is a competitor. When he has been called on to play qb he has performed extremely well. The job is Jack's to lose w/o a doubt Hess could probably hold for extra points and field goals if he could beat out Reece Strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
