Well, Well. Week 10. What caught my eye this week?

I watched Huguenot vs Eastern View on NFHS Network earlier this season as was impressed by Huguenot. It was a great first half as I recall and Huguenot pulled away in the second half. That's an indication of good halftime adjustments. I saw a little of Varina vs Atlee on NFHS Network a couple of weeks ago and Varina had a pretty easy time with an Atlee team that it seems will make the playoffs. I watched Dinwiddie vs North Stafford early in the season on NFHS and if they played again I wouldn't bet against Dinwiddie winning a rematch. 4B will be interesting. If a Battlefield team comes out on top it will be an upset I think but you never know what will happen come playoff time. KG and EV are explosive and can pop big plays but it's possible EV may not have their QB which is a shame. Courtland is the Battlefield team most likely to slow the game down and limit the offensive possessions since they are a strong running team and pass a little but not a lot. Not sure how effective they'll be against Huguenot, Dinwiddie and Varina but they are a different type of team.

One more week of regular season left and some spots and positions yet to be determined. Enjoy the last week and then the 4B playoffs will be fun to watch!! Have a good one!

Phoebus 27 Warwick 17 FINAL

Everyone keeps talking the coaching lacks for Warwick. They 9-1 and almost beat Phoebus yesterday. The coaching had the players on the brink of an upset. I love my phantoms but don't slight coach Hairston and his staff. He built Warwick into a good program that can contend. Besides Maury..I believe they can beat anyone else. Noone could say that a few years ago. I love what they are doing over there and to be honest. Each yr they get closer and closer. So show respect bc coaching ain't easy, It takes alot of time away from ur family with little pay.
This sounds good on a forum surrounded by people that have no clue what’s actually going on outside of game results.

I’m just keeping it real i will not go into details. They have stacked the team with transfers last 3 years plus the PD is very down right now and their OOD game is a bad Grassfield team…that’s why they’re 9-1. The DC is the only coach on staff that is legit in my eyes. They have a lot of people on the sidelines that just talk trash online and do nothing else. I could really go in because it’s a reason Maury’s DC is so vocal about Warwick.

One last thing let’s be honest Phoebus had Phoebus on brink of an upset. The special teams blunders is the only reason that game was close. They did absolutely nothing on offense but one play…they talked all offseason and season and did nothing to back it up. If it’s not obvious yet i don’t like that staff and the parents that talk in those Facebook groups.

Well, Well. Week 10. What caught my eye this week?

Them Varina Blue Devils and Huguenot Falcons took care of business against two teams with a combined 15-3. record. Going to be hard scoring on Varina’s defense thru the air and hard stopping that Huguenot offense. Wild that Huguenot has gone 9-0 and beat Manchester, Bird and Midlo in blowout fashion and Matoaca is considered the best team in the 804 by multiple outlets. Varina’s mistakes early on in the season, may have cost them a 1 seed. We wouldn’t be having any discussions had they beaten Indian River.

Unofficial Region 4D Point Ratings

If you got a chance to see, did GW improved during the season.
GW’s a relatively young team. They played competitively with Dinwiddie for a half and didn’t quit when they went down big, beat two very solid teams in Amherst and Glass, handily. I think the Magna Vista win was probably their biggest win. GW has a 3 year starter at QB, two very good RBs and athletic receivers who do damage by committee. Think their biggest attribute is their offensive and defensive lines. They are huge. If they can get over the “Salem Mental Hurdle”, they’re going to put Danville back on the map.

Well, Well. Week 10. What caught my eye this week?

They are not! If a team from the Battlefield makes it to the second round they better hope for a EV/KG rematch. If EV’s qb is done for the season Courtland has a legit chance of beating them.
EV’s staff had no business playing Hull against KG a few weeks ago. No knee brace, had him scrambling, took quite a few big hits. RGIII 2.0 situation. Those guys leave a lot to be desired as a staff.

Matoaca v PG

Poor Coach Hall. He has a lot of work to do to get the Royals competitive. The sad thing is he has a pile of big guys out there. I expected them to be competitive this year, but just be short on talent in key places that other teams would exploit. They had way too many weaknesses for a team that big, with that many kids on the team. They have not lived up to my expectations.
They play some extremely tough teams. The combined record of the teams who have given them their 5 losses is, 37-8. He has four wins this season, where as they only had 6 wins in the previous three years combined. I think probably the biggest thing at a school that is used to losing, is changing the culture of the entire program. I don't know if PG will ever be a state title contender, but I look for them to continue to improve in the next year or two.

STICK A FORK IN THEM

I agree 100%.

With respect to the post above:
I see no “clarification” anywhere. I think that is erroneous information.
There is an appeal hearing tomorrow at 2:00 pm. There would be no appeal hearing for a “recommendation”.
There are a lot of eyes on this thing now and some that the various involved parties are likely unaware of at present. They will likely do themselves much more harm than good IF they try to cut corners again like they did with the initial investigation.

STICK A FORK IN THEM

They got what they deserve straight up. No debate, build a super team, displace the existing players, ruin the school you left and be so tone deaf your social media bravado is #hayfieldby50 slaughtering the downtrodden local teams. It’s not the action for me, it’s the brazen outright bragging about it that makes me have no empathy. It’s indefensible!

Final: Tazewell 245, Graham 185

You missed the part about taking a knee. If you are up 30 on a team you have beaten easily over the past several years why try to score another touchdown? Does it matter if the starters or the 2nd string is in? This is just one example of why others don't care for Graham or their
I didn’t miss the part about taking a knee. It probably does matter to a kid who works his butt off in practice but doesn’t start or get to play much who’s a Senior. It happens in other games with other teams everywhere in the United States, the score can get lopsided even with 2nd string in the game. Some teams are just better than their opponents. I don’t begrudge any kid on any team that works their butt off to have an opportunity to score a TD when that kid rarely sees playing time. It’s like going to work everyday and finally getting a paycheck. So yes, we’ll agree to disagree on the Pulaski game.

I’m not defending anything from Tazewell game. That was a mess on both sides.
