I don't know why traditional sportsmanship wasn't expressed between the two teams. We all can speculate though. I wasn't there; I do know it ain't good not to shake a mans hand after a football game.
Brookville vs. Blacksburg
- Thread starter KevinLee44
- Start date
Yeah that is pretty bad. Game started getting pretty chippy there late in 4th maybe that was the reason for it. But win or lose you need to make that trip across the field to shake hands.
How many times have you seen a high school football game where the traditional handshake wasn't administered?
How many personal fouls did some classless members of your team have in the last minutes?

We have a game this week, we want all the players to play. Smart move by Coach Wells to keep his team from being suckered in to responding to classless play and potential cheap shots afterwards. Funny you want sportsmanship after the game but not during it ..............................
Just wait and see obviously u have no clue what your talking about I'm done this is getting comical now Heritage with class lol
Like I said u don't have a clue there was no fight between JF and us it's a rivalry game . All I remember when Heritage beat us at the last second bradly running out on the field pumping his fist at our sidelines and staring at our coaching staff
Did I just read that Heritage has class??? Lmfao
They might have one of the most disrespectful teams and coaches in the Seminole and maybe 3A west. Brookville is just known for being big babies when they lose... Not really classless
But I guess that's what happens when you're brainwashed into thinking your team is the greatest in the world lol

I have followed Bradley since he wore the # 3 at Salem . He coaches like he played with a chip on his shoulder. His team will be well coached ,he learned from one of the best his dad at Andrew Lewis Middle. One last comment Coach Wells did shake hands with the coach at Brookville and sure he told him why , ask your coach.
I would say the number of personal fouls seems extremely excessive and right or wrong that is reflected on the coaches and the school. It equates to a lack of control of the team and the students.
Blacksburg is a well coached team that is playing extremely well right now. I don't agree with not shaking hands, but I was not there and don't want to assume anything.

I heard the bville coach lost control of his players and also some of his emotions. I don't think I would've let my team shake hands either. How many bville players got ejected? I've seen Bradley teams play, never seen his teams out of control.

The game got completely out of hand late in 4th quarter , the refs did a terrible job of taking care of the situation. Not once did they attempt to clear the field.this would have solved a lot of things instead they just continue to throw flags even hats when they ran out of flag. The personal fouls have been a issue the last couple season . Got to be 40+ pf. It mostly same guys and he never holds any of them accountable. Things must get better in that department
The school has great students don't tnk they need to be involved. They weren't out there
I agree with you. Bradley is a type A personality but is also a top notch coach and leader of young men. I have followed him since his years at Wm Campbell. He holds his players accountable and this type of scene will not happen under his watch.
Well said RenMan - I would suspect that you and I know each other somewhere down the line. What you say about Marshall is spot on. I have the same admiration for "nuna" as you, but I don't think I would have been able to write those thoughts as well as you. Marshall is exactly as you say, "modern day John Wayne". Probably the coolest guy I have ever known, and I have have known Marshall since I was around 11 or 12. I am 50 now. Still stop by and see him when I can. One of the best, if not the best, defensive mind ever in the Seminole District. Again, great post RenMan.
It would be nice !!! Would say more but coaches take it out on innocent kids because they mad at there parents for telling the truth .
No doubt we have crossed paths. Sure we will cross paths again sometime. I gotta go by and see coach nuna. Do you know about "electrical lights" and "salamis?"
Haha - no, I haven't had those conversations. I will have to be enlightened sometime. I will try to respond to your message to me, but haven't figured out how yet. I am kind of cut from the same cloth as "Nuna", don't know much about technology. lol take care
I totally get some feeling disappointed because there was no show of sportsmanship with the lack of a handshake after the game but sometimes reality sets in and the logical thing to do is to just let cooler heads prevail. Football is a very passionate game and the playoffs only intensifies it. Remember, these are 14-18 year old kids that may not have the maturity level that some may expect. I'd rather deal with no handshaking than to see an all out melee on the field. Just move on and hopefully the coaches show the sportsmanship and call the other or whatever the case may be down the road. Unfortunately this was a night to avoid anything to escalate.

I have been playing against or officiating Brookville athletics since 1967. It pretty easy to answer your question about not shaking hands. My granddaughter played on two the two softball championship teams also.
Just for the record - it was recommended by the game's officials - the guys in the black-and-white striped shirts - that Blacksburg's coach keep his players on the sideline after the game. He accepted their recommendation, as any coach should under the circumstances.
My understanding is that the players involved in all that mess at bees blacksburg game will not be allowed to play anymore sports at the school this year
Which means several of the players careers are over, we hate to see that happen but I believe the punishment is In line with everything that happened

The officials should of never let it get that far out of hand. To continue to throw flags got them no where. They lost control of the game. They should of sent the violators to the locker room long before they did. And 10 -1, please don't say both, it was one team. If you want sportsmanship after the game practice it during the game.
