Wildcat/Chanticleer 25 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 I asked my son , I don’t agree with that type of posting either . He said someone posted something like that on a some social media site called “Barstool”not sure what that is myself . He said no one knows who posted it . Doesn’t know if it was a player (doesn’t think it was) or fan . As far as the player hurt , if it was the Tazewell player , it was a dislocated knee cap ,Doc Shrader put it back in place on the field but the young man has to go for follow up .

Most schools have an account that is usually ran by a student/player but has no affiliation with the school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody somewhere took a screenshot and it’s a bad look making fun of any player’s injury whether you’re an adult or teenager or laughing at it. But kids are stupid & do stupid stuff! I would hope no team actually takes pleasure in an opponent being hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barstool is pretty popular but they arent the most reputable out there and they have a history of offending as well. Never been a fan of them at all. That's the one. Glad it wasn't anything worse than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Science Hill has since made changes at QB and got more of a pure passer back there. But strictly due to the talent/skill of their receivers alone, I’m going with them.

Mountain Football 1,533 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 I've seen several Instagram pages that are Barstool THS or Barstool GHS. It's more than likely a student(s) that creates the page and posts on it. I think about all schools have them. I'm sure nobody from the school or staff actually runs these pages.

Union_Fan 2,155 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 I would agree that SH was the best team that Union has played. They're defensive speed was really impressive. Strictly going off the QB position, I can't say that we've faced a great passer except for O'Quin, but he didn't have the protection or receivers last year, so difficult to go by that. That's why we're looking forward to seeing Creasy. I can't wait to see if our D can get pressure on him, and how our DBs cover the receivers. This has the potential to be a much different game than we've seen so far this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting older sucks and don't recover from things like use to. I fuss at my boy for wearing shorts on cold days like to the game last Friday night then I think back and I did the same thing back then. I was complaining about 41 degrees last week. If it's above about 25, I'm not wearing pants haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had athletes that could stretch the field, but Union's pass defense held up nicely. Inside/Outside Zone seemed to be what gave them the most problems. Screen game also hurt them.

Would start for everyone over here. I thought the way Union played was a major success and really prepared them for the Graham and Tazewell and Ridgeviews of the world.

stu_bean 1,058 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 The key is going to be for Creasy to find a way to buy some time. Ridgeview swarmed him pretty well in the first quarter then adjustments were made. Graham had a great defense and some wrong choice on stop go routes made things look that much worse. Again caused by not having enough time. I'm looking quite forward to it and will just have to wait and see. Part I dread the most is finding somewhere to park. I remember how much fun that was the last time down there. On a side note I'll be quite interested to see if they fixed all the things I complained about down there, everybody says they did 🙂lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arrive after 1, and you're on your own! That's why Union people get there so early.

I would love to see them try to run a power game behind J. Taylor and G. Beavers with Alley or Taylor lead blocking for the others. I swear, if Creasy is getting pressured, or goes out like in the Graham game, they should abandon the pass with the backups and that wildcat stuff (they looked confused and out of kilter). Keep it simple, line it up and play smash mouth with those 2 imposing RB's. Heck, if nothing else, it'll keep you from getting blown out in an adverse situation, could pay off. I really wish they would have used Alley a little more offensively this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The coach himself said they’d probably underutilized Alley this year ; I believe I’m remembering correctly from the article I read in Bristol paper about the Ridgeview game. He definitely had a great game Saturday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying he’s a bad qb. He is just underwhelming, there have been numerous qbs this year that I’ve seen that are far more talented. Musick, Reece, O’Quinn, and Anderson I would probably put before him in a ranking. LacesOutDan23 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
