I didn't say the district, i said SWVA football as a whole. I would have to say, that yeah it has a lot to do with it,because they have been the dominant teams, but not just that. Appy is looking good so far this year after being down for a couple. It looks like Clintwood will make the playoffs if they win out, and i am sure even the folks from there will tell you the teams from 4-6 years back that didn't make the playoffs were a lot better. PV and GC were both quite a bit better. JJ Kelly was good at that time also, Appy was really good thru the 90's and early 00's. Honaker was very good several years in a row, Haysi, Tazwell, Graham, even Grundy have seen much better days.
I tried to be polite about what i saw coming earlier this year, GC is very young and inexperienced, etc. I got laughed off the board, called Knute Rockne when i tried to get the kids a little fired up. I didn't post this to start a fight, It is something i truly believe from watching.
