    I was teasing when I "heard" he had red hair like Carrot Top.  But I did hear he was 8 ft tall.     And hairy like BigFoot.

    That's pretty close, LOL

    Butchie was first class. We have texted a few times since he stepped away, but it's sure not the same on here without him.

    We'll keep him, Kid works hard and wants to be good, another year should make a big difference. The other QB was special but he also started for 3 years.

    Can't compare the two anyway. C ran like a freakin Mack truck and had a decent arm last year. He ran with 600lb in front of him and 500lb behind him. This year's QB still has some growing to do, a totally different frame and a strong arm. A year will make a difference but it's all up to him how good he ends up. IF they lack in leadership, they shouldn't; Its been on full display the last few years.

    Don’t think this affects the game in anyway, but Unaka fund raised to send the boys down on a charter bus tonight and the company called this morning and said they don’t have a driver for them now. Again, not game effective but do hate it for them, had to take the bus the cheerleaders are using for tonight and they will have to scramble to find a bus for the cheerleading team. 

    Sad time in this country...As long as 50% of people continue to vote for free handouts, gonna be hard to see change I'm afraid

    Unaka is normally very very bad but this happened to be a rare good group.  They will go back to being bad next year.  In the early 90s,  Unaka was actually a physical power run team.  I remember the McCloud twins, Jamie turner, Michael burrow, and Jason buckles.   Tough group of players I played against 

    They were ballers! Think the world of Burrow and Buckles. Buckles married an ole Hampton girl and their boy is a dang good round-ball player at Hampton...I've been privileged to coach around him. Class act

    Watching y’all against us either year sure wasn’t much help gauging how good you were either. Seen both versions several times both years, both were very talented groups just in different ways. Offensively you seem just as good or maybe a touch better to me but for different reasons than last year. Your defense this year is the real difference between the two. Don’t know if you’ll tote a gold ball back up the mountain or not this year but I’ll be pulling for you until you’re done regardless of when that is. 

    You've seen em more than me this year. For the last 20 years I've put business on the back burner and was time to get to it. Plus, if I can get this grandboy on Fridays, I'll choose to play in the den floor everytime Lol

    And we didn't run the QB against Boone.  Hard to compare different teams, this bunch is not near as big in the line but we are overall quicker to the ball.  

    That's my point. Basically lined up and just ran at Boone last year. It was a horrible experience all the way around Lol. Yes, QB ran once and attempted one pass if I remember correctly. These boys are definitely faster than they were last year and honestly, Levi is even a bigger force now! Geno is the beast I told him he'd be and your FS isn't having to come up and play LBR most of the time making stops because the speed is better. A years age does wonders!

    Well just keep at it, I’m sure you’ll find a way to increase your level of disagreement with me :lol:

    I did not watch the Oneida game. Not a single snap, didn’t need to see that one. I have however watched a few other Hampton games this year. I agree their QB last year was a very talented athlete. So were his brothers when they played. This Hampton team, in my opinion, is overall a better team especially defensively. Just my take just as you have yours. Have you watched much Hampton the last 2 years other than the 2 Oneida beat downs?

    Yes, a year later and these boys are better on D than they were last year. We were a step behind on D vs good receivers but maturity has helped.

    No way you can compare the two teams based on their games vs Boone. For one, last year we played in a 4-qtr freakin monsoon at Boone. The O you saw in last year's playoffs wasn't even set up until AFTER the Boone game. IMO the biggest thing that hurt us on D last year was we had those 3 games canceled due to covid or we may have been better prepared to stay closer with a team like WV.
