    Casto back at Riverheads

    What you don't know is that there are ways schools can reduce their numbers to VHSL and keep all their ADM money from the state. The state numbers are the starting point, then superintendents can adjust that number based on certain factors, state a reason, and then those numbers are used...

    Casto back at Riverheads

    The fact they bailed without telling him is my issue. Podcast was not classy. Coaches bailing at time when it would be difficult to find new ones..... Right about one thing, best 2A team in 1A football. Initial numbers turned into VHSL during realignment were over 520. Official numbers...

    Casto back at Riverheads

    Sad thing was it wasn't a new system at all. Podcast says it all, new guy was undermined from the outset. Casto is back at Riverheads, good for them. He'll hang around and then try to get a family member the job. I respect what he did at Riverheads but even you folks have to admit some of...

    Riverheads Football Again Looking for Head Coach

    What would he gain from publicly bashing the coaching staff who bailed on him without giving him a heads up but have been there for a while? I can see it now, Question - Coach, why did you decide to give up coaching at Riverheads? Well, I had several meetings with the coaches and wanted to...

    Riverheads Football Again Looking for Head Coach

    Nobody said he's making up the story but he was willing to come and then decided not to after the other mess. All those things are factors, he didn't find out about the family 2 hours after D-coordinator and others made an announcement to not coach. I've got questions - who'd he tell first...

    Riverheads Football Again Looking for Head Coach

    I guess we'll find out if Norcross comes back. If he does then that will tell you something. The principal leaving wasn't known at the time of the hire. D-coordinator too old and stuck in his ways to listen to any new ideas or adjustments, then running to Casto and saying new coach is...

    Riverheads News

    Wheeler runs the Wing T, can't really change the blocking scheme. Might have been a terminology issue. Down, gap, backer is pretty much the scheme....

    Riverheads Football Again Looking for Head Coach

    Assistant coaches didn't want the job but wanted to stay. My guess is they didn't want to change anything or were uncomfortable with the new coach adjustments. Probably the "You should just do what we've been doing mentality." Casto still in the building. Principal that hires the new coach...

    JF Head Coach

    Probably not going to see that with Paul White unless he's changed. He's a Wing-T guy. Not sure why JF chose him, he seems like a good guy but bounces around a lot. Mathews, Apprentice School, Grafton for like a month, back to Mathews, 1 year in Texas. Doubt he sticks to JF for very long...

    LIVE Blog - Class 2 Boys State Championship Game: Radford 74, East Rockingham 50

    Radford beat D-3 state champ Northside this year. Their guard game is better than GW Danville but I think GW would wear them down with their size and overall athletecism.

    VHSL Executive Committee meets this month

    They don't need to end the out of season practice rule but they do need to extend each of the dead periods to give coaches a break without feeling guilty for taking a few days off. We already have good young ciaches leaving because they get burned out.

    BOYS BB 1A Lancaster

    That was a girls game. Northampton is pretty athletic and if they hit shots can sneak up on you .

    Graham vs Goochland

    I'm picking the Gooch in a close one.

    Highfill legacy

    I believe his contributions in both football and soccer warrant hall of fame status. The guy can flat out coach. His level of consistency in both sports with (in my opinion) overall mediocre talent, always doing it the right way etc. make him a Hall of Famer.

    Should HUDL Sideline be legal?

    The pros don't use still photos any more. There is also no such rule in high school about head sets anymore - that was when they were hard wired now they are all wireless and you control whether or not your own equipment works.

    Highfill legacy

    Did a lot with a little throughout his career. He was always willing to be creative and take chances to remain competitive with lesser skill than his opponents. He should be an easy choice for the VHSL Hall of Fame.
