I'm not sure how WV playoff point system works... is Bluefield on life support for a playoff spot?Β If so, Bluefield wins. 2.Β Are the WV refs as bad as Richlands folks have said they are in the past when Richlands plays Beaver?Β If so, Bluefield wins. I'm thinking at least one if not both bullet points are accurate, so I say Bluefield wins. I remember Beaver played Man in Mitchell Β in the 70βs, they ran 3 plays in the last 3 seconds and finally won. Β The Man coach took his team off the field for the extra point and then was suspended for not staying on the field. Β Beaver has cheated for decades.

Bandana Knight 4 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Seems as if Bluefield has this one wrapped up. Β Ridgeview has been as unimpressive as an 8-0 team can be. Β IMO the coaching is lackluster. Β Two guys trying to call plays on offensive. Β No sideline discipline. Β No real in game or half time adjustments. Β Clock management doesnβt exist. Β When a kid makes a mistake does not seem to be coached up. Β I watched a kids have 3 false starts in the same series. Β Most good coaches would have pulled him and let him know this isnβt how we do things. Β Instead hats and headset were thrown and the refs were being berated FOR NO REASON AT ALL. Β The kid was moving all night long. Β I donβt know how this is gonna get any better this year. Β Disappointed Fan bigcotton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwvaOG 602 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 We warned everyone that the coaching could undo a promising season. Β The playcalling has been poor most of the year. Β Stubbornness is not a good quality for a play caller. Tonight the coaching disparity was remarkable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BandanaVTDavis4321 1,719 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Why in the he$$ have some people been giving Bluefield votes in those weekly top 12 polls with all of their losses?Β That's ridiculous!!! Ummm...no, it's actually not. They better buckle up and/or strap down in the saddle if the Beavers make it in the WV playoffs. Always dangerous are the talented Beavers....ALWAYS!

Β Blame the coaching for this beat down ?Β Bluefield is good but they certainly arenβt as good as we made them look. But yes Another night of offensive coaching disappointment. Β Β Especially going for it on 4th and 2 on our own 26 yard line. Β On another note there was a time or two that we were moving the ball well by short passes and runs. Β Then we decide to go away from whatβs working and throw three straight deep balls. Β Let me rephrase three straight badly overthrown deep balls. Β Why not stick with getting first downs and what was working??Β Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BandanaVTDavis4321 1,719 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 3 minutes ago, Packman said: The boys didnβt run Tiller off. So they deserve it?Β I think he's referring to the guys in power than ran Tiller off. He's not referring to the current players or wishing them ill intent.Β I agree with swvahavoc by the way. He's right. For the guy or guys that did this, they are paying the price. Unfortunately, rhe kids do as well, and that's the sad part. Incredibly talented football team that has all the tools to possibly go the distance. It's a given by now offensively. They aren't changing. When Beavers only has like 10 catches over the last 6 or so games, you have a problem on the sidelines, not on the field. Ridgeview still has a chance. With that loss, they are likely going to miss Graham/Union who will play each other in round 2, and RV has very good odds of playing for the Region title by not facing either Graham or Union until the region title game.

Packman 33 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Ok. Β Sorry I apologize I took it wrong. Seems like only play they know to Beavers is the Bomb.

BandanaVTDavis4321 1,719 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Just now, Packman said: Ok. Β Sorry I apologize I took it wrong. Seems like only play they know to Beavers is the Bomb. Β I mean why not the slant or let him run the jet sweep do something put the dang ball in his hands more.Β I agree Packman. I took it that way at first and then reread it and got it. Zero diversity on O for RV and FAR more. When you have 1 or 2, maybe 4 fans saying it, then it can be just talk and frustration. When you have basically the entire RV fanbase saying this and saying this from game 1, not game 7 or 8, but warning about it from game 1, it's legit. My opinion,,,,,most coaching critique on this board is 95 plus percent of the time pure non sense and overblown and hyperbole. This is that 5% where it's actually valid. It actually applies here. I think if most non RV fans knew what happened down there to get to this change, and they truly knew the ins and outs of it, they would ALL agree with your plight. You have an absolute mess that will reach a boiling point.Β I also respect your restraint in holding back details that don't need shared here. Most non RV fans actually don't know the restraint you've showed regarding details.Β Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packman 33 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 O ya I just hate it for the young men who have worked hard because of some big egos of some guys on sidelines. Β But we have to go on and do the best we can do and I will support the boys. Β Bluefield sure is better than there record though. Β Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backpack 28 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 I could say a lot. But all Iβll say is these boys deserve better. Β Sidelines are a mess, players fighting amongst themselves on the sidelines and on the field, players erupting and throwing helmets with no discipline. Β there has been a sideline warning flag in every game Iβve seen this year and Iβm not sure what went on but seemed to be an issue after the game. Itβs just very frustrating. I keep saying week after week that we will figure it out, that we will see things on film and work on them. Itβs week 9 and It didnβt happen Β this week Β Letβs hope again for next weekΒ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WolfpackGhost 0 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Long time reader, first time poster. Β I read a post on social media talking about the importance of sportmanship, it also applies to parents & fans. Β Since consolidation, Iβve watched many RV games & shook my head at the actions of some players, parents & fans. I canβt help but think that many of those actions were a result of whatβs posted on here. When I read this board, all I see is negative, contradicting posts that are of no help to anyone, except the posters ego. βThis player needs the ball moreβ, βwe donβt run the ball enoughβ, βwe run the ball too muchβ, βmore short passesβ, βtoo many deep ballsβ, βTillerβ, βEdwardsβ, name calling. These help nothing. Do you honestly believe any coach is reading this for advice or even reading it at all?? Β But Iβm sure these kids do read it, so this cancerous nonsense spreads from βparent/fan posterβ to player & throughout the team. How about reading youβre the on the most overrated unimpressive 8-0 team?? Real confidence booster!! Tiller & Edwards weβre not fired, they accepted jobs at other schools that they applied for, so move on from that. Remember these are kids & in a few short weeks, itβs over for some & it may be a coaches fault, a players fault or just a better team(sometimes those actually exist). I would like to see it end with a trophy, but these silly blame game posts wonβt help that. This site had a good purpose, but has turned into a whining place for egotistical parents/fans & so this will also be my last post. Β Good luck Wolfpack the rest of the seasonΒ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
