Graham-VT Fan 46 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 As a Graham fan, I would have to say Eddie "Hit Man" Hall, followed closely by Eddie Neel and Mark "Caveman" Cundiff. Eddie Neel and Mark graduated with me in 1983. Eddie Hall graduated a year in front of me in 1982. I used to ride the bus with Eddie Hall in Junior High School (that was 7th and 8th grade back then for all of you Middle School people), and he would go to school without a beard, and ride the bus home with a full beard. Dude was a man in every sense of the word. Tazewell had some studs back then too. Rick Noel of course, and their QB (King) was very good. I think Rick also did the kicking and he was very good at that too. Best player I would bring back from Bluefield High School (Beaver) would be Donnie Jackson. That guy ran rings around Robert Alexander "The Great" in the WV State Championship game. One of the best RB's to ever play in this area who got little recognition.

legend11 32 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 The only thing this thread has taught me is that we don't have cool nicknames anymore. Hit Man Hall?! Robert Alexander THE GREAT?!?! I think this is the biggest indicator of how far we've regressed as a society. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
com74bsslc 10 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 TJ Rasnick was on different level. He inspired people who don't even know what football is. He is an inspiration to everyone and teaches us about lessons in life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggamesjames 18 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 He'll just pick one of them old Hackney's. :) haha.."old" is absolutely correct :) to answer your post redtiger...it's a tough one. Last 10 years Ryan Jones comes to mind. Also, Jake Colley and Blake Owens. I agree Josh Yates was tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old_school 78 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 If I had to pick within the last 10 years, it would be Matt Muncy at Tazewell. Game changer for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87Tiger 62 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Of course, Heath Miller @ Honaker. Rough night for the Steelers @ Denver, but Heath pulled in a TD reception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blues_spread 10 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 No one would want either of the Rogers from Gate City? Now those guys could play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HurricaneWarning 212 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Or Johnny Wilson from Marion. Signed with Tech, later transferred to Emory, great hands. Now in the Emory HOF. I heard he was great, just before my time just like Bales and Lee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countrywave 10 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 Yes Cary went to E&H...he graduated from Grundy in '89 In the last 10 years, I would take Luke Dales, 98-01 LB/FB/ Bulldozer, over either Marcum bros. any day of the week. Period. His picture is beside the word "BEAST" in the dictionary. Played at VT for a short time and along with Cary Perkins & Cody Justus (another good one) , the only 3 time winner for team MVP at Grundy.
