Wolf1207 239 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 I just read online that Rye Cove has an 8th grader with an offer to EKU already. That’s amazing. I’d love to see them win, but I think the streak ends at Five Star. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say he doesn't look as impressive to me as Meadows was when he was young but he has a ton of potential. Were about to find out how big the gap between 1A and 2A is in SWVA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union_Fan 2,154 Report Share Posted September 28, 2022 I have to say, I think this game intrigues me more than any other this week. Was hoping it might be moved to Thursday, so I could watch it. Wondering how far RC has come since last year, and curious to see if they can be competitive with a 2A team. Will it be 42-28, 50-0 or 17-14?? I fully expect Lee to win, but happy to see RC having a great season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EKU wanted to be known as the first. It’s amazing to me the schools who are following him already. Very good kid who works hard. Hopefully he stays healthy because the sky is the limit for him. Watching him playing MS basketball last year was probably more entertaining than football. He was a force on the boards.

BandanaVTDavis4321 1,717 Report Share Posted September 28, 2022 I hope he's another future D1 kid and NFL player from SWVA. I love it when kids in SWVA get in the spotlight at an early age. I'm going to be sure to keep an eye on Rye Cove over the next few years. It's going to be fun watching him. 1inStripes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the big Schools, probably from Tenn. will wind up with him, no way he stays at Rye Cove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 Union would be my guess. No need to run all the way to Tennessee when Union obviously provides enough exposure to get a kid to a big time program and beyond. I believe his family lives in Duffield so its a easy change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jags52 344 Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 I mean I understand he is only in 8th grade but some of the videos he posted on twitter were of him getting pushed around by kids half his size. His size will get him offers because you cant teach that but he has a long way to go. I hope he develops and improves but I honestly hate school "offering" a kid in 8th grade that is way too soon. I feel like most of those kids never make it to Saturdays. That kid just needs to focus on high school ball have some fun, hit the weight room, and improve his craft.

generallyspeaking 39 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 Supposed to rain after kickoff. That may affect the passing game for both teams and will probably result in some fumbles. The Generals have the better back in Huff as far as I know of, but the Eagles have the option of running their QB as well. I don’t know what Rye coves line play consists of but I know Lee’s is relatively undersized and have struggled to create lanes at times against good D-Lines like RV and Union. I’m hoping the Generals will get out to a decent early lead and get the chance to open up their playbook so they can work on some things.

S10SQUAREBODY4LIFE 239 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 Was a good match-up, take away the forced pick6s and it's a one score game possibly. Good luck the rest of the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Duffield is in Scott County like Gate City, but which driving time is closer, or is it roughly the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 5 hours ago, Weatherman said: I fail to see how Union can provide any more exposure than any other school in our area. I had a long response typed out that I lost, it all boils down to competition and talent produced. Union plays big games vs tough competition and has 3 players currently in NCAA Division II or higher and one in the NFL that all came through the program in the past 5 years. The Cumberland District as a whole has no one playing in college and to my knowledge hasn't sent a player to Division II or higher in at least the past 2 decades. How will this kid perform on the field vs good competition? If he stays at Rye Cove a recruiter will never know until they get him on campus. At Union he will play against good competition in the M7, not to mention non-conference games against good SWD teams and from what I hear big time NET teams.
