Class 6A Bulletin Board Material / Re: GW move in
Last post by panther07 - Today at 05:16:20 pm
Quote from: Pr8hd on Today at 05:00:27 pmThat's about like saying a college or a pro team should only have 1 talented QB at a time....you would at least expect/hope every class (Sr/Jr/So or worst cast Fr) have at least 1 QB - we had 2 Sophs last year and a Jr receiver that filled in part time some,  but was not his full time position. Keep in mind Archer broke his wrist in conference opener as well last year and missed multiple games, luckily we had a very capable Soph to fill in who would start at many schools. Two of the other upper class QB's that should have been there moved out.... one was starting for Elkins and other for Mansfield. 

Well. A college or a pro team controls their roster. So, no, it's not the same. At all.

Quote from: 123130Diesel on Today at 05:00:58 pmI pointed this out to a few at the beginning of the season, while flipping through Hooten's. Several schools benefitted from those that left the program for greener pastures.

I can think of several kids that moved around with school choice or simply relocated. Keep in mind, many parents can now work anywhere remotely esp since Covid that combined with the opening of school choice, it is a virtual HS free agency. Everyone cries wolf, until they are beneficary of a few move ins themselves or they do it themselves.... aka the kid going Shiloh to VB.

Quote from: Pr8hd on Today at 02:11:53 pmIt's not too much different than a small school benefiting from kids transferring/school choice to them for playing time they may or may not have gotten at a larger school. Kids just want to go where they can play, showcase their skills, and win/compete for championships. GW has seen it's share go both ways. I don't think GW is alone in that in today's world of varsity atheltics. GW's move ins are just more high profile or covered by social media especially with the likes of some already high profile kids like the Archer brothers on the team.

GW has lost it's share of kids with talent too. This even in key areas that needed depth, make no mistake. GW has been very thin at QB for this very reason. The main difference is GW's backups in many cases are likely starters or key contributors at other schools.

Quote from: panther07 on Today at 02:27:46 pmI hate that you guys have had to deal with only 1 really talented qb at a time on the roster.

That's about like saying a college or a pro team should only have 1 talented QB at a time....you would at least expect/hope every class (Sr/Jr/So or worst cast Fr) have at least 1 QB - we had 2 Sophs last year and a Jr receiver that filled in part time some,  but was not his full time position. Keep in mind Archer broke his wrist in conference opener as well last year and missed multiple games, luckily we had a very capable Soph to fill in who would start at many schools. He also got hurt while Archer was hurt. So tell, me you only need 1? Two of the other upper class QB's that should have been there moved out.... one was starting for Elkins and other for Mansfield.

It's been rough to see. But they pulled together and made the most of the situation.
