Gridiron60 2,555 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 Mike Compton if he’d do it? Ronnie Davis if he’d do it? Or maybe @SwvaOG? I don’t know if any of those mentioned are crazy and/or brave enough to take it on though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnionGuy2017 182 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 Rhodes from Eastside would be a good candidate in my opinion. I feel he’s done a great job everywhere he has been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S10SQUAREBODY4LIFE 239 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 Could be one of several m7 coaches looking to promote, and one or two just looking for a new school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityofRaven 2,444 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 So many people on Facebook seem to know the game so well, should have a really good field to choose from. Gridiron60, bleedblue89, S10SQUAREBODY4LIFE and 3 others 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwvaOG 601 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 What about Brandon Breeding? He did a great job with the track program this past year. Obviously has the Blue blood in his veins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tru Blue72 88 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 2 hours ago, Westisthebest said: My bet is Davis or Breeding unless someone more proven comes along I'm just a crusty old guy who has folowed the Blues for over 60 years and in my non-coaching opinion I think it would be better to hire someone out of SWD who can build his on staff. If you're going to start over, it has to be a clean sweep of all associated with the program, but then again I'm just a fan and my opinion is just that an opinion. With all the poitical situations with our county school board it will probably be someone who knows diddly squat about football and with no knowledge of the game, but a good guy who treats everyone nice and follows the school board's recomendation to the tee.

bleedblue89 99 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 Ronnie Davis is not the answer. There needs to be some kind of rule or limit to how many times that a coach can quit, leave, then come back and then quit again, leave again and come back again and again. The kids deserve stability, which seems to be rare these days. Just sayin’ Tru Blue72, VT W1N and Unchained 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V-Cats 472 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 I wonder if the answer would be bringing someone in from outside the area No idea who that would be of course but it would be a good way to fix the in-fighting Tru Blue72 and Gridiron60 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying it is a bad idea at all, just that to get a clean sweep you would need a HC and 2-3 of his hand-picked assistants to be a package. That is incredibly hard to do in high school sports. I think in this scenario you can count anyone not in the SWD footprint as being an outsider. V-Cats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chipinbogey 150 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 I normally stay out of these types of talks. I am hopeful they find someone who can turn such a tradition-rich program back into a winner. A formidable Richlands team is better for the health of SWVA football as a whole. The talent cycles and swings of area are now commonplace at almost every school except a handful. Richlands was one of those handful, and I think it still is even today. There's not many places that compare to a rocking Ernie Hicks on a Friday in the fall. They have facilities, community support, and some hard-nosed kids. Those are what SWVA football is all about. They have faced the perfect storm to bring the program to where it is now, and it will be fun to watch the resurgence. V-Cats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
