Plywood_King 517 Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 1. Richlands 2. Graham 3. Marion 4. VA High 5. Tazewell 6. Lebanon And there's a lot of elbow room between everyone ranked 1-4, so unless someone vastly under or over performs, I wouldn't anticipate much wiggle room until you get to the bottom. You never know with new head coaches, but it would appear that the Neers and Dawgs will race "not to finish last." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a couple of Graham fans over there that are very excited about their team, looks like their using different names but looks like the same ones that has been there for years , same thought process. Looks like they have everybody believing with them, well almost everybody. Time will tell, time will tell. Ryan4VT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mountain Football 1,532 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 I hope they really want to play. As young as they look and no bigger than they are it may be a tough season for them. I wish those kids and staff nothing but the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the deal with all the white helmets? I myself can't stand them, I've only seen a select few that I have liked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me if your school or team only has 2 colors and one of them happens to be white, ie. Richlands Navy & White, well you don't have many options. On the other hand, if your team has multiple colors I like it when they are used on the helmet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being the case, I would much rather have silver helmets as my 2nd than white. I remember the all silver unis with a silver helmet back in the 90's and those are one of my all time favorite in school history. I would also love to see a full color pic of the old Carolina Blue unis they used to wear back in the 60's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navy and Silver are Northwood's primary colors, they have gone away from the silver and replaced it with white and I can't stand it. For the first 20 years of the school (give or take 2-3 years) our helmets were silver with navy facemasks, I loved them. Northwood had an all silver uniform to go with the silver helmet in the late 90's too. blueinbama and cityofRaven 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northwood had an all silver uniform to go with the silver helmet in the late 90's too. Silver was actually the primary color for Richlands in 1995. The history behind the all silver uniforms began in the '94 playoffs against Lee. The Blues warmed up in their standard home blue jerseys then came back out for the game in the new silver jerseys. Ended up putting a then school record 66 points up for the win. The next year they brought in silver helmets for the all metallic look. 48 minutes ago, stu_bean said: I'll take the white helmet over the stupid Furman logo we had a few years back I agree, that is by far the worst Tazewell logo. I have always appreciated the big T with the bulldog logo. barondawg77 and Chappy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SXSW 557 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 When Colobro came to Gate City he changed the color from the Royal Blue to Carolina Blue and it was atrocious. He finally came to his senses and changed it back, they actually had players quit playing football over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assumed that Carolina blue was Gate City's original color and then they changed to Royal blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
