BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 2 hours ago, UVAObserver said: How about your band of vagrants from the defunct M7 board stop acting like the M7 is the SEC West in football and the ACC in basketball? I notice they haven’t been chirping as much in recent weeks. Part of that’s due to Graham’s emergence; part of that’s due to having some multi accounts banned. But I digress. Want to stop eating crow? Close your mandibles (or rather, stop typing). Twice in about 3 months you’ve had to choke it down, and I’m happy to serve it up. Please show me where I've made any of those claims. One poster said the SWD isn't very good this year in basketball and so far, that's been true. But if you wanna brag about the top seed Graham beating the 4-seed Lee, more power to you, just know it's not a good look to beat your chest after that win, considering the M7 3-seed beat the second seeded SWD team by 25 points at home. In football, the SWD had the best team at the top and the next 4-5 best teams were M7 teams (and that juggernaut SWD team was 1-1 against the third best M7 team FWIW). In basketball, it's looking like the M7 has the best team at the top with GC and the SWD has one team in the next group of the 5-6 best teams. But please, continue touting that win over Lee. I could see making that post if Graham beats Central (which is possible), but after beating Lee? lolol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee on the other hand was overhyped coming into the season and played worse later in the season. I dont think Lee was overhyped coming into the season. They started strong by winning the Grand Home Furnishings tourney by beating Union in the finals which caught a lot of attention and seemed to struggle shortly after that point in the season.

Beamerball 566 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Per the announcers in the games I listened to, there was very little bench use this season and the players were gassed in the 2nd half. I do know the games I listened to including the Graham game it seemed some never came of much it at all. ballfam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end of the day Central moves on and Richlands goes on to start baseball season! Last I checked only thing that matters is the final score when the final buzzer sounds off!

I would be willing to bet that nobody from region D will make it one round past regionals this year. With Dan River being eliminated, I think the Region D winner absolutely has a shot at winning their first game in the state tourney against the second seeded 2C team. And to be honest, the only real chest beating I saw was over the SWD 1 beating the M7 4. I was not trying to beat any drums at all, just pointing out that of the eight teams left playing in 2D, six are M7 teams. I don't believe I've ever personally said the M7 was this unbeatable juggernaut in either sport, I could be wrong, but I did find it kinda funny that someone decided that Graham beating Lee was the opportunity to try and knock the M7 down a peg. I could absolutely see it if Graham beats Wise, then a couple posters would then have to eat said crow, but beating Lee was expected from Graham.

My opinion on when the momentum shifted was in the middle of the 3rd Quarter when Central got it inside to there Big man (Tre Mullins) and he scored 5 straight points, and Simmons got his 4th foul for Richlands and Central went on a run. Now Central bounced from a 2-3 zone to a 3-2 zone. which kept the Berry Kid in check in the 2nd half. I don't think he took a shot the whole 2nd half. Also when the Simmons kid posted up he was met my several players from Central, He saw Jordan Bishop, Brody Allison or Elijah Hayes when he went to make a post move. And if I'm correct I don't think he scored in the 2nd half either. Now I've watched a lot of high school basketball over the years and I have to say that Richlands has one of the Classiest basketball staffs around, not sure of the head coach's name but he is a Class act.

swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted February 27, 2020 If you count Abingdon in both boys and girls, then you still have 4 M7 teams alive in both. I don't know about the boys chances against Northside, but it's almost guaranteed that the Abingdon girls season will end tonight though against undefeated Carroll County.

Radford and Martinsville play each other in the Region C semis. I haven’t heard much about either so I don’t know how good they are this season but all I do know is they seem to be at this stage every season so I’m sure they’re legit.

stantheman 52 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 playing in the M7 was a definite advantage for abingdon, i would bet from top to bottom there isn't a more competitive conference, next year will be the same, abingdon will fall off the earth but the other programs will just flourish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
