HSHS at Manchester

Okay, so I wasn't gonna say nothing but I'm a Coach at HSHS and its sicken to read some of these comments. Yes everyone is entitled to their opinions but please stop and don't discredit what our program or especially our players have done over the years. Most of you talk as fans and that cool cause our fans are passionate just like everyone else fans. Grown ass men on here talking bout teenage kids and I think y'all forget they are just that TEENAGE KIDS. We coaches at HSHS are focused on our kids being great outside of football, football just is the vehicle we are using to get to our goals. We focused on us and don't mind playing whoever whenever RESPECT ALL FEAR NONE. We let the outsiders say and compare us to this team and that team, we don't do that cause once again we talking bout teenagers so any given night anyone can be beat no matter how they roster is stacked (evident when we loss to MBK year after 1st title) and from that point on as a staff we said we will make sure our players are prepared for whatever situation whatever team whatever location to be great. So yall have your opinions on who will win this and that game but stop and don't discredit our players skills or effort nor our program cause we put in alot of work to get where we are right now and don't plan on slowing down anytime soon. Oh and I see comments bout our JV, they go everywhere with us cause as a Florida Natives (Coach J and myself) we learn coming up that in order to have a program you have to start the pups early to see if they got some bite not bark to them cause if they start at early age biting what you think they gonna do when they get older. So with that being said the Louisa fan who thinks they will beat us....COOL...that's your opinion but please don't discredit what we are doing cause
MY BROTHERS AND ME ARE ALWAYS PREPARING TO GET BETTER SO OUR PLAYERS WILL BE GREAT!! #WAWG
 
This is how we 540 country boyz play out here. We play hard, run nice formations and plays, and we HIT. If you put assumptions to the side, take the time to watch this, and get over the camera (it zooms in after a bit), you'll see that Orange's record isn't good, but both teams have some very good looking players, speed everywhere, and Orange is MUCH more fun to watch than this year's Manchester. They played pretty well against us (it's a rivalry) and are better than their record. They have a beast at RB with athletes and size everywhere, been that way forever. They run spread the way it should be run. Some 804 and 757 teams can take notes!



540 Boyz? I used to think so until I came down here to the 757, I have not seen a dominate 540 team since Handley in the 90's and Sherando in the 90's-2000's and the Warriors didn't win a state title.

I've seen the nice formations, and teams play hard, and seen teams HIT. But you cant HIT what you cant catch. Lots of speed down this way, and with that speed a lot of kids don't want to juke you and break your ankles, they want to run over you and take your soul. It's impressive, take a look and watch some film.
 
@757FridayNiteZ This is the garbage we deal with now! Lmao! A 2nd rate 4A team,that’s NEVER WON ANYTHING,talking trash about the BIG BOYS. I can’t believe,I actually got caught up in this nonsense. FYI...this is a Louisa fan talking trash! Lmao....it’s like watching rec league JV football. They think they have speed & size! Lmao! Now,he’s trying to say,Louisa is better than OSMITH! Lmao!
You're right 757! He's just an idiot trying us out. He's clueless!

@Rev_Real I've seen plenty of 757 teams over the years, it's not new to me. The best teams are usually the ones with formidable running games (like those Ocean Lakes, Lake Taylor, Phoebus, and the best Oscar Smith teams), not the "flashy" teams that throw the ball everywhere, as you imply.

I'm not talking about your 540 area, I mean my area. If you watch the video I posted, Orange played well, pursued/flew to the ball well and hit hard for a 2-5 team. Anyone who really knows football can see that. They even flipped over our 6 ft. 200 lb WR/RB on a tackle.

Yeah you clearly are too cocky to even check out the full game I posted, we barely ran single wing that game. You don't even try to hide your ignorance. That coaching argument is debatable too, SB's coach can't beat y'all because of some of his decisions.
Your ignorance is talking up a team that’s never won ANYTHING! Until you actually WIN one....stay in your lane...where you belong. Stonebridge has won titles! Oscar Smith has won titles. Highland Springs has won titles. Hopewell and Thomas Dale have won titles. Manchester has won a title! Louisa hasn’t!!! Talk is cheap until you can put that ring,in the case ,where the dust used to be!

Fans should love their teams and respect their opponents. Imaginary matchups and arguing about who is better gets tiresome.

I'm glad that the Westfield fan chooses to stay objective about their opponents. Smith has never beaten them but he's very respectful of our team's efforts and talent. The feeling is mutual. Honestly, the HSHS fans could back down a bit & show some maturity and leadership while they enjoy being on top.

At the same time, if your team hasn't won a State Title, then why poke the bear?
 
@HooSprings there are plenty of state title caliber teams that haven't won one yet. Look at Eastern View, Forge (you'll see) and Freedom. So I can say what I want and unlike you, I take the time to study teams and also get feedback from connections all over most of the state before I spout off. So I don't care if y'all have 9 titles, I'll state my opinion. I sure hope y'all set something up with us or Salem soon.

Sorry to bring you into it brother! I have a friend of mine who is the father of one of your former kickers. I told him about the conversation and he pretty much said the same thing as you did. If you’ve never won a state title how can you possibly talk trash.

Hope to see you guys in Hampton!

You’re right...go ahead and state your opinion. We Will just keep doing what we do....WIN!

My coach always told me....it’s better to look ugly and win than look pretty & lose! I guess we looked ugly 36 times in a row!
 
While we can tell that the multiple sides aren't going to agree (no matter who is right or wrong), please guys let's refrain from bringing KIDS into this and diminish their accomplishments or talk negatively about them.

Both sides here have said things that are uncalled for. And while I don't see a point in debating/arguing about teams that will never play, there is absolutely no reason for other teams to be brought into it (especially ones that NEITHER of you have played)
 
So you’re saying he’s better than TDsle’s All-American RB that’s headed to NDame and Hopewell’s Henderson that just got an offer from Alabama?! Foh! You just lost ALL credibility! Go back to the 4A board! You’re dismissed!!
I have no dog in it, but I have to agree with you Hoosprings lol.. Ramsey was good but he’s not better than Hopewell’s Henderson, TD’s Tyree or your QB Jones..They just don’t give anybody a ND, Clemson or Bama offer. You have to be talented academically, athletically and be some what of a good person. I enjoyed watching Jones on Friday. Kid is extremely poised for his first year starting on varsity.

Just because you "take time to study teams and get feedback from connections all over the state" does not guarantee you are knowledgeable enough to interpret what you see or have the ability to accurately interpret what you might be told. You are entitled to your opinions and have the right to spout off as you wish, however, the results ON THE FIELD AND OVER A NUMBER OF YEARS ultimately carry far more weight than what you might think you see or are told by others and that is what gives actual credibility to any talk.

You are correct,and I STRONGLY REGRET any negative comments made directly towards any players on ANY team. I WILL defend the kids that I so adamantly support.

We can talk & compare til we’re blue in the face,but it’s all just speculation if they never face!

Good post Gunz!

I would think beating 3 playoff teams in a row with a combined regular season record of 29-1, two of them very good 804 teams stacked with D1 players, and the other a 757 team, on the way to the state title game in 2017 would at least solidify us as belonging into these types of conversations now, instead of us being painted as a joke by ignorant fans who don't know the facts or ignore them. Dinwiddie beat Salem that year, even though we didn't. We went into Dinwiddie, who hadn't lost a home game in forever, and won, absolutely dominating that game from start to finish. We scored on the 3rd play of the game. This year's Louisa team is overall better than that team. Those are facts, and those facts will always stand. Our region had 4 10-0 teams. We arguably had the toughest road to the state title game of any team EVER. We might not have a title yet but we are of that caliber. We'll see what happens over the coming weeks.

Just let it go man. I haven't read anyone here saying that Louisa isn't a contender in 4a. It is saying that your team would beat everyone else that people are disputing. And sorry, but Louisa being better this year than 2017 isn't a fact. There is absolutely no way for that to be a fact, even if it is absolutely true.

But this thread isn't about Louisa or ANY other team in 1a, 2a, 3a, 4a, 6a or 5a except HS and Manchester.
 
Respect, but if only you called out the derogatory tone of your fans specifically. Using words like trash and JV and such.
I’m sorry @LionNation540 but that’s not my job they are fans just like you and I get it but you have been saying some reckless things on here also. So if you can’t take it don’t dish it out TBH cause I could have came at you worst for talking bout our players and program but I feel there is no need to tongue wrestle with someone who isn’t in our HSHS circle (players and coaches) and doesn’t know what we do as a program. Good Luck to Louisa and everyone else on rest of season.
 
@vtperry as I stated in another thread, I'm a fan of your program. It's just some of your fans who think y'all walk on water and are on the level of IMG and are unbeatable, and put down every other team (not just Louisa), instead of being proud that VA has so many good teams, that I can't stand. The HS fans I sat with in 2016 at HU were great and hilarious, seems like some bad apples fell from the tree and found their way here.
 
You see @LionNation540 you do some good things on here, like highlighting your players, but you undermine that effort when you start talking negatively about others to promote your own.

And whether you want to believe it or not, you are giving your team/city a bad rep, and they don't deserve that. Because I know A LOT of people in Louisa and they don't have this attitude. You may say you don't care, which is fine, but I am sure the fine people in Louisa wouldn't want to be labeled as such. And besides Salem fans, you probably had a majority of the state cheering for you when you played especially with the story of the season. Why do you think people have turned on the Lions?

There is very little difference in HS fans talking as if they are the best team in nation and you talking like you have the best team in the state. Both are wrong to me, and further more both are unprovable. Let's just assume for a second that Louisa IS the best team in the state, when it is unprovable what does it gain to continously tell everyone? All it is doing is making things harder for your team, fans, county if you end up losing without accomplishing your goals.

If Louisa goes out and beats every team by 70 and all the teams you have mentioned lose, Louisa isn't going to be awarded the 5a or 6a championship. So NONE of this is going to be proven one way or another.

Should the dominant programs be men as such and not qualified by class, absolutely. Is it arrogant to think you would crush someone just because you are bigger and even thinking you are best team in nation, I believe so.

But that shouldn't warrant talking down about kids, or even worse when you don't agree try to call people autistic.

@Gunz41 I disagree with most of your post, especially since I'm around other Louisa fans more than you, and current and former players, and they always tell me certain things. We can agree to disagree. The autism comment was not due to disagreeing, it was due to the constant caps lock, cursing (foh), calling teams trash, etc.

I don't think you understood my point then. I am not questioning whether other Louisa people think you have the best team in the state. But I don't think anyone from Louisa, or anyone from any area, would want to be looked at as arrogant. Again, why do you think people on this board have seemed to have turned on your team?

I don't know what else you could disagree with?

You think talking negatively about some kids to elevate others is a good thing?

You think that insinuating people are autistic is good?

You think if Louisa wins the 4a championship and say Massaponax wins 6a, and Stonebridge 5a that Louisa will be crowned 5a and 6a champion?

If you disagree with teams being classified as dominant in their class and not as just dominant then you have no leg to stand on here. As I AM saying that if Louisa, Salem, Lord Botetourt, Appomattox, Riverheads, etc are dominant than they should be looked at as such, not as dominant for their classification.

I guess you could disagree with thinking one is best in nation is different than best in state. I agree it is different, but that wasn't the point. The point was that HS has no chance of proving that since they don't play all the top teams, just as Louisa doesn't play all the top teams in the state.
 
@springer76 that's literally what your fellow fans have implied, bringing up teams like DeMatha, St. Francis and IMG on this board and the 6A board. Hell I used to think you were a cocky SOB too, but you are the least cocky now compared to the others.

I know IMG reached out to Highland Springs in an attempt to play this year,but scheduling was the biggest issue. I think,with Johnson being from Florida,it was being considered,but again....couldn’t figure it into both team’s schedule.
 
@Gunz41 you are putting a lot of words in my mouth. If you're going to police threads, make sure you have read every thread and remember the history.

Look, when I judge teams, I immediately throw whatever class they're in out the window. I just look at how good they are, how talented they are, coaching, and matchups, discipline, period. I have stated this in other threads on this board. That's why I have talked about how deep Class 4 is now. Many teams in 4 are just as good or better than many 5 and 6 teams. I have never tried to say or imply Louisa would be the champ of the whole state. I think we can beat HS. I don't think we can beat Forge. Why? Matchups. Do I think we can beat a team like Class 6 Dale? Hell yeah, and Class 3 Hopewell blew Dale out. And you act like I'm the only one and the first one to talk negatively about players. I haven't called any teams rec league or JV either, go back and read who did. And simply saying one player is better than another, if that offends you then you shouldn't be in the sports field. That's literally what sports is about, yes even high school sports. The players themselves say far worse to each other.

Those teams are mentioned,because it’s a FACT that those teams have reached out to Highland Springs to get on their schedules next year. One of the “Big Boys” is gonna be the opening game for HSHS before they play OSmith in Richmond the next game. I don’t think it will be IMG,but one of the other 2 could be it. We just won’t know til next year’s schedule comes out.

But I didn't and nobody else said we were better than those team, it was stated that HS was trying to schedule those teams for a competitive boost for us. BUT.... we really do not want to play private schools because there are no points allowed in the VHSL scoring system for privates. Hense, we played Avalon this year. 0 points for playing them. Our numbers will be based on 9 regular season games.

Thomas Dale’s All-American RB missed the Hopewell game along with 7 other starters. At full strength,TD is a State Title contender.

I wasn't putting words in your mouth, I said that before you responded that you didn't agree with most of what I said.

And I also never said that you shouldn't feel you can beat whoever, but now who's putting words in someone else's mouth. It is that it is UNPROVABLE.

You haven't just said that some players are better than others though. You also questioned their posted info.

Again you are missing the point about the fine Louisa people, and you could certainly be one of them. Whether it is your intention or not, you are coming off as arrogant to some, just like you are saying it is wrong for the HS posters, and I don't remember seeing the animosity towards Louisa in 2017 or before. So something has changed in the view of your team, and it seems from the responses that it comes from people disliking the way you post. So your intent may be one of confidence and pride for your team, but something is getting lost in the translation. And I am sure that if you are being honest you don't want to be looked at as arrogant, just like nobody else would unless that is their intention (aka troll). Again the comment has nothing to do with 100% of Louisa thinking they have the best team, player, etc. It has to do with how they are perceived in regards to attitude. I also tend to think you are being honest in your assessments and that you are trying to come from a good place.

As for clarifying the autism comment, sorry man but that doesn't make it right. Its incredibly disrespectful and insensitive.

Again I don't care one bit that you think Louisa can beat anyone.

@HooSprings I've heard that about Dale every year since their last title. Every time I've watched them I came away thinking "this is it?! How?"

All I really ask for from the true HSHS fans is to be a little bit more humble. Y'all should remember that once upon a time not long ago, you were losing to Bird/Herm/Varina every year. Now that those teams have dropped in quality, you have seized your chance and made the most of it, but remember where you came from! Just like we Louisa fans know that we came from literally the bottom and have an awesome future ahead, and we won't forget. High school football always runs in cycles. The tables can instantly turn and Bird/Herm/Varina can improve and start beating y'all every year again, and I already know their fans will come back out in droves and call y'all out.

Well...HSHS plays CFORGE in 2-1/2 weeks,so we can all see if HS or CF is better. HS did scrimmage Freedom at RMCollege,and I believe Freedom already beat Forge earlier this season.
 
You think if Louisa wins the 4a championship and say Massaponax wins 6a, and Stonebridge 5a that Louisa will be crowned 5a and 6a champion?
This is putting words in my mouth and my brain.

The player's own Hudl page literally contradicts what was posted here. And from what I saw Friday, he looked fast but not THAT fast.
I don't remember seeing the animosity towards Louisa in 2017 or before.
Brother, you have been on these boards for years, I know you remember the hate and assumptions and disrespect Louisa has always gotten. Look no further than what @DinwiddieProud had posted before we finally got the chance to play Dinwiddie. And that's just one example of many. Back when I was in high school, in 2003 or 2004, I had never heard of this site. Some classmates were talking about how Louisa was getting disrespected on here for no reason, rumors getting spread about certain players, and that was how I was introduced to VP. The only reason I can think of, is because we were finally starting to get good.
Whether it is your intention or not, you are coming off as arrogant to some
And that's fine, can't please everyone. I just like reading and writing and using proper grammar, punctuation, and catchy/clever vocabulary, so I can see how some may see it the wrong way or even see it as corny. But I'm not gonna come on here looking like I can't type.
just like you are saying it is wrong for the HSposters
I have not used the borderline foul type of language they have used to describe teams. The worst I have said is "bad team".

Well...HSHS plays CFORGE in 2-1/2 weeks,so we can all see if HS or CF is better. HS did scrimmage Freedom at RMCollege,and I believe Freedom already beat Forge earlier this season.
Just because you "beat" Freedom in a meaningless scrimmage, it doesn't mean you'd beat them in a real game. And if Freedom plays Forge again, Forge can very well win, maybe easily, just like I said I don't think a Manchester rematch would be close.

Ouch. I hate to be that guy, but since you quoted me with that, and you wrote in the same comment about grammar etc. The quote you used there is NOT a statement, it is a question so that is not putting words or thoughts in your head. And again that was in response to you saying you disagreed with most of what I said, and the quote was saying that no matter who wins 5 and 6 that there is absolutely no way to prove who is the best team.

And I think you have mentioned before that you were a Hoos fan. So back 10 years ago, or however long it was, were you of the impression that VT was a championship contender every year? Because VT fans were of that thought, and they made it to a championship game. So while I believe Louisa is a contender every year, people pointing out that Louisa hasn't won it all (like VT) so you can't claim your thoughts valid. I don't even have to be of that mindset.

You could be 100% right in all your observations, but they are unprovable. And with such, you guys aren't going to agree, so I don't understand the continuation of the argument. Because honestly no matter how many videos you post, or whatever they are doing to their competition you are still both going to have your own point of view.

And I believe that coming onto their board (hopefully you don't take that the wrong way) is the wrong place to talk about Louisa, just as going to 4a to discuss HS would be wrong.

I actually agreed with that particular part.

BN first mentioned Louisa beating HS in another thread on this Class 5 board. Want the link? I had never mentioned us. I left it alone, telling myself to ignore it as long as others did, until a couple other posters responded, laughing. So I replied that I think we can beat them, gave very detailed reasons why, nothing negative. The immediate responses were that was the funniest thing they ever heard, that we are JV, Class 4 is basically JV, and that we should play the HS JV. And it's been an ongoing beaten dead horse ever since. I wasn't the first to bring Louisa up in this thread either, but I'm gonna speak my mind even if I keep getting ganged up on by the HS fans that outnumber me.

Where does it say HSHS beat Freedom in that quote?! It was a meaningless scrimmage that HSHS out scored Freedom. It wasn’t a win or lose thing. Had both 1st teams played the entire scrimmage,live kick offed,live punted,and coaches not been on the field....I’d say HSHS “beat” Freedom. We’ll never know if HS could beat Freedom in a real game,but we’ll know if HSHS or CF can beat each other.
