Richlands was punished for the game. They lost their chance to win a 1993 state title. That was the punishment. There is no asterisk beside 92. The VHSL had its chance to strip the title and they didn’t. Stop beating the damned horse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they strip it big deal...everyone knows who won the last game...and their is an asterisk for everyone but Richlands faithful....as I recall you are around 30 yrs old or so...so all you know about the game is what you have heard and game tape...trust me I was there for both games and knew about the cleats before the Salem game was even played...so congrats on that 92* title Everyone had a shot at 93 title that didn't get caught the previous year getting an unfair advantage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BandanaVTDavis4321 1,717 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 No dog in the fight, but a little disrespectful for anyone to assume that Salem would have automatically beat Orange County. I think many of folks have forgotten that Richlands and Salem was the state semifinals and not the state title. If Salem wins the game over the Blues, or if the VHSL would have quickly found out about the cleats and declared Salem the winner over Richlands, there is no guarantee Salem beats Orange County in the state title game. They would have been favored, but still no guaranteed win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The very fact that many have left out Orange County is why it matters. Many don't know, and this is why it matters when the conversation of Richlands/Salem comes up. So many people think the cleats game was the state title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richlands couldn't have won a title in 1993, even if they were the Dallas Cowboys. Richlands had several all-state guys left over from the 92 team and some strong underclassmen, including Jeremy McCommons as a sophmore.

BandanaVTDavis4321 1,717 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 I'm going to disagree with one poster on Richlands in 93 not being able to win a title. They were a completely different team by the end of game 10, even with the 7-3 record. I thought they were very close to as good as the 92 team by seasons end. When looking back nearly 30 yrs later and seeing, (7-3) in regular season, don't let that fool you. This team was completely different and improved at a rate way beyond their peers from game 1 through 10. Their run game was good enough by regular seasons end to allow them to be in every game they played. Only my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
