Bingo, it all starts at the rec leaguesouthbottomU, you should’ve offered another choice: Salem is not just a HS team. It’s a system that brings players up thru all levels from Rec ball thru Varsity. I’ve always been impressed by that.
Probably, lol!Had to add "they recruit and get all the officials calls" for all the haters. I wonder if those two voters really believe that?
I agree, but would it work no matter the system? Is there something about the system that helps in their success? Would Salem be as good if they ran the single wing, spread, or wing t?southbottomU, you should’ve offered another choice: Salem is not just a HS team.

Wasn’t referring to an Offense or Defense, but to the involvement of Mags and staff with the lower levels.I agree, but would it work no matter the system? Is there something about the system that helps in their success? Would Salem be as good if they ran the single wing, spread, or wing t?
Imao the reason given by cd2018 is about 95% the reason that Salem is so successful. I would have voted in this poll if this reason would have been included in the answer to the poll. It would be interesting to add this explanation to the answers and see how many would change there votes.southbottomU, you should’ve offered another choice: Salem is not just a HS team.

And Christiansburg travel wrestling.Salem Park and Rec and football = NR United and Blacksburg soccer
Between 1989 and 2016, It’s what you had to play in Bburg to win a state championship. All kidding aside, 1bburgfan made a great comparison.Soccer? What's soccer?????
Salem is more physical than most teams they play. Coach Mags had enough sense to not fix something if it’s not broke. They still run the I with the QB under center for the most part. It would be interesting to know if they still have very physical practices with full pads. Many teams don’t do that anymore. Their execution is superb. Talent is above ave. They do get a little help from time to time with a transfer or two but that’s not the reason for their consistent success. They play football the old fashioned way.Poll
I don’t think they recruit but I did give that my choice as the officials does favor them. All the others are true as they are fundamentally sound , physical and have a great coach and community support. Definitely not a hater, I mean who really hates on high school kids, it’s not that deep bro.. I think their are a lot of teams that have their fair share of favoritism, however, I believe Salem stands out the most because they actually win.Had to add "they recruit and get all the officials calls" for all the haters.
