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.
Nice comment but 25 years and counting. 😃

Final: Tazewell 245, Graham 185

Apparently you do because you wouldn't be trying to preach down to us. Shut up we don't care. By the way, you got banned for life today for your crap on swva sports. Hope he was worth it. We're done.

I did? News to me. Not sure why I would. Once they made it to where you could read the threads without logging in there wasn’t a reason to log in.

I’m not preaching down to you. If you take it that way you must have something on your heart that you’re trying to hold back.

Anyways, I’m going to go eat my takeout and finish watching my dolphins. I’m glutton for punishment.

I’m through with this escalating conversation Mr. Rules.

I’m sure the ones who do have integrity understand my comment.

Again, I don’t care what they do. If Tony Palmer thinks the way he is leading young men is the right way then he has a right to take that team in that direction.

My point being is that with as much controversy has been surrounding him this year, personally and professionally, I would expect him to dot his i’s and cross his T’s a little more.

I’m not judging his intentions. Just judging the actions.

Man.....I'm not sure we really care about if you think we don't have integrity. At all.

Phoebus 27 Warwick 17 FINAL

Strength of schedule will separate them..Granby probably has the least PP based on their district competition. 2 and 3 will be on the same side bracket so KF/Warwick should be good game. My grandson just told me that Warwick will beat KF🤣🤣
Warwick has the players to beat anyone in Division 5 not named Maury honestly. It’s the coaching that they lack

Final: Tazewell 245, Graham 185

Not to argue but I don’t believe Graham had all their starters in at that point, some starters maybe but they really don’t have that many extra players. They didn’t even have enough to field a JV team. I’m pretty sure it was mostly backups in at that point against Pulaski. A coach really can’t tell kids who rarely get to play much, don’t score on them. I really think both teams had mostly backups in at that point.
So you are on the 1 yard line with seconds left up 30 in a game and you can't take a knee? Go watch the film and offer another lame excuse besides that one. Good grief. Real classy bunch.

Final: Tazewell 245, Graham 185

I watched this one on NFHS last week. Graham had all starters in on offense except for the runningback and tried to punch it in from the 1 yard line as time ran out in the game. They were up 35-3 I believe at the time. Pulaski stopped them from scoring on the 1.

Wonder what Pulaski did to deserve that? Had to have been Pulaski’s fault, per the @SWDRules method of thinking.

All the recievers were backups too. Passing quarterback was handing ball off. Try again hater.

Final: Tazewell 245, Graham 185

Are you being facetious?

I watched Tazewell’s. It was right after halftime losing around 17-0.

Kind of makes sense to do that if you’re trying to win, right?

Doing it up 30 in the 4th is just, well…

But anyways, it made me laugh. As chippy as it was I would think you would want to get out of there. Not give Tazewell more reason to be upset
I think you’re on the wrong side of this one.

Graham, while wildly successful over the last ten years, would rank in the bottom half of the “class” rankings if you did a blind poll.

I think we all have seen it but Graham folks have done a good job of keeping it contained until this year. I commend their fans who aren’t willing to fall in line and sacrifice integrity.



With that being said, it’s hard to argue with results. If Coach Palmer is okay with his players and coaches acting that way since it obviously isn’t keeping them from winning games, so be it. It’s his program. And I’m sure the results give him a much longer leash.

2. Bruton: 24.56/24.78
3. Southampton 24.44
4. Lunenburg: 21.11

6. Nottoway: 18.38
7. King William: 17.56

12. Prince Edward: 13.11
13. Windsor: 12.10
14. Arcadia: 11.60
If everything holds, John Marshall will slide into the eighth spot since Amelia has waived the white flag on the season.

Or...as I am just seeing the comment above, will Region A go with a seven team bracket with the one seed getting a bye in the first round?

State Semifinals Cross Bracketing Question

I was on the 6A board and saw that Cross Bracketing as been approved which means Region A Champ vs Region D Champ and Region B champ vs Region C Champ and the winners will play in the Championship. I couldn't quite tell if that was for all classifications or just Class 6 and 4? It would be nice to see some fresh match ups in 1a State Semifinals. Does anyone know if they are going this route in 1A this year? On the thread in the 6A board it said that 1A was 44 out of 46 in favor of the move.
That's not "cross bracketing". They are just rearranging the brackets for some ridiculous reason with the regular season almost complete.

There is a difference between the two.

STICK A FORK IN THEM

I’m all for kids transferring to improve their academic and athletic situations. What’s lame as hell with this generation is they try to form superteams. What’s even more lame is these “adults” that call themselves “coaches” were renting vans and taking kids up 95 to workout at Hayfield back when DO got hired and into the summer. Their playoff ban is 100% correct call by the VHSL.

Similar situation happening down in South Carolina with a coach that left a state contender and brought a third of his team with him. The coach left Clinton High School (located halfway between Fayetteville and Wilmington) and ended up at Marlboro County (you more than likely pass through there if you go to Myrtle Beach coming down 220), which is about 100 miles from Clinton. WILD as hell that people find stuff like this legal.

Here’s the article: https://www.si.com/high-school/sout...outh-carolina-high-school-league-01jbfcs0p9ts
VHSL director of communications Mike McCall clarified to the Times-Dispatch on Saturday that the league's sanctions are a "recommendation." I'm just saying, folks, better not count this as a done deal.

Didn't Graham try to punch another score in at the end of the game last week on the 1 yard line up big? I don't know why so many questions the penalties and discipline issues when the kids are arguing with the coaches from the field.
