Virginia preps regarding Phil Robbins
Robbbins you are a loser! Reply
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
why are the people of powell valley still letting this scum of the earth continue to coach their children, and where is the vhsl at letting this go on. look at these quotes from robbins after the lost to haysi. "I've got sophomores who don't have much lead in their britches. and if thats not bad enough heres another, How good is Haysi? "Good enough to get beat by two touchdowns next week by Giles County,'' Robbins replied.
is this what the coaches of losing teams say, i dont think so, the vhsl should be ashmed that this man is still coaching, how does this show good sportsmanship for the kids on that team. iv never seen a comment like this from any coach after they lost, yeah im from giles and u may say were whinning agian but we seen his so called sportsmanship when after we were beat like 30 some to 7 i think and no chance of winning last year so called coach robbins called a pass on 4th down for a touchdown with less than a min left in the game and then goes for the 2 point conversion after that. and then in the paper bragged about calling that play, yeah i know pv fans we should had stopped the pass but tell me the last time u were beat and the other team did that to you? and now these comments, i bet haysi is mad and we dont blame you, ask the gw people about ragsdale running the clock out by taking a knee at there 5yd line with about 2 min to go. sure we all get on here and talk and have fun and get carried away sometimes, but robbins goes way to far, and to tell u the truth giles fans did want pv to win saturday so we could get another shot and get back for last year, but i can tell u this if we were up by 30 with 1 min to go coach ragsdale would had been on the 1 yd and still took a knee, this is why coach ragsdale is one of the most respected coaches in the state hell in the united states, i just wish my son would be able to play for him before he retires, he still coaches the ole fashion way works hard at it and gives 150% to those kids and expects the same out of them and respects the other teams players and coaches, theres been times giles could had scored 100 on other teams but why humilate the kids after its hard enough on them to lose in the first place, and its not only coach ragsdale but every team we play in the district and in the playoffs except for robbins does the same thing, and u robbins should know this better than anyone i was on the field last year when u lost to mp and brad went running off the field balling his eyes out, it was hard for him to lose that game and theres nothing wrong with that he was still a kid and it hurt to lose because he was competive, but u dont mind embarasing other kids do you? so robbins the next time theres a coaching clinic on sportsmanship ill pay ur way so you can learn something you know nothing about.

Bad attitude. I agree on that part. Believe it or not before Robbins came to PV back in the early 80s our football team had terrible seasons. I don't remember because I wasn't born but I have been told.
I agree with you on some things there. He's got a bad attitude but he is a good coach. To tell you the truth I played JV football for a week (and yes I quit for band). I didn't ever want to play for Coach Robbins. He never coached JV but still. Some things I agree with that he does and some I don't.
But about the running up the score deal, I'm not going to talk about what Giles should have done. But there have been worse. No not from PV. Back in 2002 D1 State Championship William Campbell vs. Appalachia. William Campbell left their starters in the whole game and the final score was WC 70, Appy 0. The play last year wasn't really anything compared to that. Another score of interest and from this year in Tennessee Alcoa vs. some other team. Alcoa really runs it up. Alcoa wins 91 to 7 and no that isn't a typo. The score was 70 to 0 at halftime for that game according to the news. That is the worst one.
I'm a band dork and proud

how can u say hes a good coach, just winning football games is not a good coach, how about showing these kids that everything in life is not about winning but how u handle urself wether u win or lose and as far as not winning before he got there ur crazy, i seen the jones brothers play football any decent coach could had those titles with those teams and when julias was a senior that team could had beat any team in the state of va. i agree with you on william campbell, and i dont know the team in tennesee, but if its true ur right there no better than robbins and they shouldnt be coaching either. at some time the parents have to make a desicion is it worth it just to win a game in football, or win the game of life!

I would'nt have believed it if you had'nt gave the link. Wow, I'm speachless, pretty poor sportsmanship for a coach. Apparently Robbins knows the game of football, but has a lot to learn about humility. Don't blame the Powell Valley kids for the ignorance of a coach, those kids work hard, are the reason for their success and deserve respect, I'm afraid Robbins believes it is all about him.

Before Robbins went to PV he was the coach at Christiansburg!
I don't care what anyone says, calling the pass last year against Giles was just a slap in the face. Why?
I will admit, I am not a fan of RAgsdale but he does call teh dogs off. During teh season, I see scores like Giles 30 and East Mont 13. After reading the paper, I realize that he took teh starters out and ran the clock down. Ragsdale took a knee on the goaline at FLoyd in 2001. However, I guess some may view that as being cocky.
Robbins appears to be an arrogant jerk and I hope 1 day Floyd gets a shot at them. He seems to have no PR as he makes comments like that in the paper. What are you telling your sophmores that you will coach the next 2 years? I have no idea why he made the statement about Haysi. I am sure they are a good team and could win on Sat. There are alot of caches that I would not want my children to play for but most of them don't show their rear in the papers!
I appreciate the staff at Floyd who shows class and I feel treats the kids with respect.

Phil came to PV just after we won the first state title in school history so we had not had too many bad seasons. Coach James Bolling was the head coach at the school and had began to get the program together. He was promoted to an administration job after winning the title.

Re: Virginia preps regarding Phil Robbins
what robbins said was totaly uncalled for....the better team won saturday...phil needs to retire and retire fast...haysi is a great team and desrevs to win state. i believe that Phil couldn't take getting beat...i have no respect for the man myself...congrats to haysi...and to phil......give up. powell valley is no longer a power house.
Re: Virginia preps regarding Phil Robbins
hahaha, I hope pv wins state next year. People take Robbins way too serious. Its not like he murdered anyone, yet everyone acts like it. Robbins is much like Spurrier, hate him or love him, hes a good coach. If you want your kid to be a good football player send him to Phil Robbins. If you want your kid to be a gracious loser send him to John Crockett [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

You're a moron.
Phil stays until he wants to leave.
7 state titles, eat that.
You are now, the worst poster on this forum, you should probably hang yourself.
Re: Virginia preps regarding Phil Robbins
Juggernaut, youre an idiot if you think 1 down year in which they play for the region title makes them no longer a powerhouse.
Re: Virginia preps regarding Phil Robbins
no..im not an idiot...give them credit..they did good with what they had...they are a good team, but their not a great team
Re: Virginia preps regarding Phil Robbins
Yeah, I belive you are an idiot.
Re: Virginia preps regarding Phil Robbins
i agree
i played 4 years for the man and i love him to death
Re: Virginia preps regarding Phil Robbins
I agree with biggin. Its like one year has made you forget about all the other years. I would say there is a pretty good chance that PV will be right back in the thick of a state title next year.
Re: Virginia preps regarding Phil Robbins
i think they will win it all next year
and i cant wait to watch them
