Please inform me about these high profile kids that are being funneled to LCA by Liberty. Liberty currently has the 102 ranked recruiting class in football so all those impact players coming to little old Lynchburg must be overlooked or under ranked…some of yall really just be talking to say anything and hope somebody else agrees.

If we are speaking of other sports again let’s count titles and I haven’t seen LCA secure many since they’ve been in the public realm, I’ve seen them make some title games but surprise some teams are just better than the one they play and they (LCA) lost.

Always was dependent on where kids reside unless it’s open enrollment and if the parents have the money and want to send their kids to LCA why is there an issue with that? You voted for who you wanted to correct, you choose what to eat what sports teams to follow etc…why can’t a parent or athlete choose to go to a school that offers a chance to cater to what they’re looking for. Every team in the district has transfers , I guarantee if you look at where some of the star players went to middle school it doesn’t align with their respective high school they graduated from.

But there are rules on how those transfer are supposed to happen. After you start your freshman year if you transfer in you have to move into the district to play immediately. Otherwise you have to sit out a year. Everyone not just LCA should obey the rules. If I lived in the Lynchburg area I would have sent my kids to LCA. I'm not against the school.

OK how about the girls team that won the state last year? Two best players had committed to Liberty U. One from Greensboro & one from San Diego. Also doesn't take a bunch of high profile kids to stack a team in high school?

I’m willing to bet the deed to my house they won’t have anyone who can compare to Gideon on the roster, they may win games and be successful but they won’t be as dominant in any way shape form or fashion as they have been in this back 2 back champions seasons. Reminds me of the run Amherst had where they played in 4 titles won 2 and lost 2…again just remember talent goes in cycles there hasn’t been one team that’s dominated the Seminole for the last 20-30 years it’s always a new team taking the reigns for a few years and then fading away to eventually come back.

Talent goes in cycles,...I totally get that. Now IF they have some great talent on the team next year that wasnt on it this year that is where the problems will lie.

There won’t be a new top team anymore. LCA is bringing in kids in every sport from out of state that are being recruited. And are ranked. They scout them at LU camps for lineman and skills. No public school is doing that. Within 2 years LCA will be winning every sport by 40. Unless the ADs actually team up and forfeit each contest then LCA gets no games in any sport. THey may be undefeated. But they will never set foot on a field or court. Although there is rumor of parents taking control over this now and telling the vhsl and ADs that their kid will not be participating vs LCA. In that case the teams will have to forfeit anyways.

So, who's in charge of comparing this years roster to next years roster. We need to see who all the new players are (will be).

"It just depends on where the kids live" That is how is should be but do you really think LCA is not going to dominate because they bring players in from outside of Lynchburg. They have an advantage that no one else has or has had. Bet they bring in some real talent & win just as big next year.

Controversy arises whenever somebody doesn’t agree with the other parties actions. Nobody used to care about LCA when they were private, many in the area would downplay their state championship then as “they aren’t playing anyone and you can reclassify” but now they’re playing those same teams who said they weren’t good and have shown they can compete the narrative has changed. They cheat they shouldn’t be allowed etc, it’s ok to recognize talent goes in cycles. This is why Amherst hasn’t been relevant since 2012 roughly … Brookville since their chips, and the list goes on, in a few years there’ll be a new top team in the Seminole it just depends on where the kids live.

Preseason Class 2 Boys Basketball Top 10

M
Floyd should be in the top 5 or 6. Saw them in person. They can move the ball and shoot the three. Underwood is back and looks healthy. Enough Ball Handlers to go around. They will be around towards the end.

Radford has an okay team. They do not have anyone that scares you. They may win some games they shouldn't, but they should remain outside the top 10 all year. They lost a game against Salem (Spartans) last night with odd inbounding plays and also running the clock down before generating offense. Very odd last two minutes of the game.

Why do “they” need a “motivator of men” those kids are already motivated, they’re in college already aren’t they, to me that is motivation. NSU needs excellent coaches period.

You're looking at motivation at the most basic level. They showed up to campus, good job. Now what? Everyone isn't a self-motivator at all times.

A motivator of men or people in general excels at getting the most out of people....turning that potential to kinetic. Unearthing a level of talent in people that they didn't know they had. Helping them understand their why. Keeping them locked in no matter what's going on around them. Being influential.

And all programs need "excellent" coaches to excel. Assembling a group of "excellent" coaches is another topic.
