    Jeff Woody out at Charlottesville

    My bad. I always get Meeks and Woody mixed up. Meeks is the coach who recently left Brookville. Woody left Glass the year before in order to have a shorter drive from Cville to Lynchburg. He did play for Dr. Lineburg at Brookville and is friends with several coaches on staff.

    Jeff Woody out at Charlottesville

    I am purely guessing, but I am going to say it is because he played at Brookville for Dr. Lineburg and has close friendships with a lot on the staff. I heard that when Woody resigned from Brookville he did so due to lack of support from admin and the wish to cut down on travel. When he made...

    Way too early football talk. Who should be the top teams in each region?

    I forgot about Rico Reynolds. You're right about Jeff Redd and that Chatham team. That was an extremely talented group with skill and size. I believe Theo Sherman was on that team and went on to start for 4 yrs for JMU. Offense also had Logan Smyth, who had a nice career at Averett.

    Way too early football talk. Who should be the top teams in each region?

    During that time period, William Campbell had Cedric Peerman and Shea Boyd. A few years had some big hyped games between WC and Gretna, but if memory serves me correctly, only one of those was a close game.

    Rocktown High School opens in 2024

    Congrats to Coach Cherebin. I have heard that HHS will open will just over 1000 students and Rock Town will have slightly over 900. This would place them both in C3, unless RockTown petitions to play down. I am most interested to see how this all plays out with participation numbers. Looking...

    Staunton Storm Turns Back Spunky Effort From Riverheads

    The Staunton senior that was mobbed by his teammates tore knee ligaments the last week of football season and was unable to play in that senior night, so I am guessing they were just happy for him to score on basketball senior night.

    Mark is part of a great coaching family. Thought he retired from Halifax and moved up north somewhere?

    Any word on Brookville coaching search?

    Serves all those who were involved in the decision right. Forced a respected coach out because they felt they knew better. Hard enough anymore to find qualified coaches and to try and come in and build a staff with coaches who are potentially out of the building is a difficult process and has...

    Shenandoah Games on Tap for Wednesday/Thursday

    The Staunton/Fort game should be exciting. Need to see what all 3 school divisions do with the snow, melting and then near zero windchill for Wednesday.

    Any word on Brookville coaching search?

    I have no insider information, but here are a few things that could be impacting the search and candidates deciding to say no. Is Meeks also leaving his teaching position? I thought I remember reading something that said he still planned on teaching at Brookville. That eliminates a teaching...

    Any word on Brookville coaching search?

    You are right about Cville being a mess and not just in athletics. They've been in the news a lot lately and even had classes canceled before winter break because teachers protested by calling out. I'm sure the drive was part of his decision. I might be wrong, but I believe he is close...

    Cayden Cook Cash

    He is a nice young man and a hard worker, but he has a lot more work and improving to do to go from preferred walk-on to beast. Imo, he will be a scholarship player by 3rd or 4th year and possibly contribute on special teams around the same time. Great HS player, but there is a reason he only...

    Tentative (?) Tuesday Schedule for Shenandoah Teams

    According to the district site and going to each teams calendar for today, it shows Draft & Staunton being rescheduled to tomorrow, but it also shows Staunton playing at Heritage Lynchburg tomorrow as well. The other team calendars still have the games for tonight as scheduled.

    Did the top two interview or were they just approached to gage their interest?

    What key players graduate from your team? Have they committed? Been offered? Where?

    There are several D 2 & 3 schools in Virginia that offer Engineering and have football (Washington & Lee, Virginia State, CNU, Randolph Macon, UVA Wise, Hampden Sydney, Emory & Henry, Shenandoah). A lot more if a person considers surrounding states Like PA, WV, and NC. Tons of D2 and 3 school...

    What’s the deal with Liberty?

    It saves money if you have small children or a larger family. Staying at home also removes the obnoxious know it all, let me scream at the officials, players, and coaches style of fan. For me, there is something about the sounds of a high school game and the smells of the concession food that...

    Coaches insights wanted

    It's an exhausting and trying profession, which I keep doing because of a love for the sport and trying to teach it and the proper way of playing to future generations. The biggest challenge I find is that the majority of players just want to be handed playing without putting in any work and...

    What’s the deal with Liberty?

    I know LU was also playing a home basketball game as well yesterday and I wonder if that had anything to do with the issues. Maybe they diverted their resources for the record setting crowd in the new arena. City Stadium would be a nice location.

    I remember several years ago there was an article written about how students showed up for the start of the year on move in day and the school didn't have enough dorm rooms for all the students.

    All Region B Teams…

    There is a lot that goes into the district votes and politics does play a role in it, which it shouldn't but it does. I like to think that good coaches actually vote for the players they feel are deserving and not just their own. A lot of times it is based off of stats that are presented, but...
