HOKIE75-79 • 10/17/25 08:03 AM ET
Curious as to why in SWVA? IS it
VT757to276 • 10/17/25 08:31 AM ET
I'd say population drop hurts as much as anything.**
reestuart • 10/17/25 09:27 AM ET
With Galax, I had heard a rumor from someone back in SWVA
AirborneHokie96 • 10/17/25 09:09 AM ET
Left Galax ten years ago.

This is why we need a middle finger button for idiotic posts **
bigbadbird • 10/17/25 04:06 PM ET
Vanilla Ice fan?**
AirborneHokie96 • 10/17/25 05:04 PM ET
I live in the area, this is the dumbest rumor Ive heard. **
VTCARICO • 10/17/25 12:09 PM ET
so what's the issue? 11 of 12 hispanics are not on the team
Windows NT • 10/17/25 05:30 PM ET
it sure sounds stupid**
bigbadbird • 10/17/25 04:06 PM ET
Again, I don't live in SWVA and haven't since graduating from VT
AirborneHokie96 • 10/17/25 12:13 PM ET
Yeah.... That's why they had to Forfeit games last year as well.
Virtual Hokie • 10/17/25 10:25 AM ET
about 16% of the Galax population is Hispanic. You don't think it
reestuart • 10/17/25 10:45 AM ET
Nope ◄
Virtual Hokie • 10/17/25 10:57 AM ET
Fair enough, but I do know that here, there are quite a few kids not
reestuart • 10/17/25 11:11 AM ET
Going off the roster with MAX PREPS
AirborneHokie96 • 10/17/25 11:25 AM ET
Total 13 players on the roster this year
Virtual Hokie • 10/17/25 12:57 PM ET
You can do that. I just counted the kids with the hispanic names

Pretty huge drop for it to be a coincidence. Especially with a team that's
reestuart • 10/17/25 11:39 AM ET
athletes + their families go underground
Windows NT • 10/17/25 11:31 AM ET
99.9999% are good people too
Windows NT • 10/17/25 09:15 AM ET
your % may actually be low, LOL.**
reestuart • 10/17/25 09:28 AM ET
Agree**
AirborneHokie96 • 10/17/25 09:18 AM ET
In my area, I see a lot of kids of former NFL players playing soccer
AirborneHokie96 • 10/17/25 08:28 AM ET
Soccer has a higher- or just as high concussion rate- headers...
bigbadbird • 10/17/25 04:31 PM ET
Wonder what a study of injuries/concussions from both footballs would find
RunHokieRun • 10/17/25 01:34 PM ET
Mine had a concussion playing softball in high school...
AirborneHokie96 • 10/17/25 01:35 PM ET
My son quit football in the 8th grade because of concussion concerns.
ancient alien 2018 • 10/17/25 07:09 PM ET
Happiest day was when my son finished HS football with the same IQ.....
Happy Dog • 10/17/25 09:00 AM ET
my son wanted to play HS football. I gave him a one word answer... NO
Windows NT • 10/17/25 09:09 AM ET
That's interesting to me and
summervillehokie • 10/17/25 09:40 AM ET
Yes risk of injury, since he's tiny compared to the other kids**
Windows NT • 10/17/25 09:50 AM ET
dito
bugman • 10/17/25 08:54 AM ET
I started to play soccer in the Army and wish we had had it in HS in SWVA
AirborneHokie96 • 10/17/25 09:05 AM ET
Same, they had barely invented soccer when I was a kid in the 70s
Happy Dog • 10/17/25 09:15 AM ET
Any connection to why you volunteered to
skautdog • 10/17/25 08:41 AM ET
Let's just say that I watched one too many John Wayne movies as a kid....
AirborneHokie96 • 10/17/25 08:58 AM ET
Sounds like a wild ride. Glad I didnt
skautdog • 10/18/25 10:27 AM ET
AATW**
AirborneHokie96 • 10/18/25 11:07 AM ET
VERY special if one knows. AIRBORNE. **
skautdog • 10/18/25 05:49 PM ET
Can’t blame the kids, but this
GCHokieof91 • 10/17/25 07:25 AM ET
Forfeits still count as wins for the opponent in the points system...
BROman Hokie • 10/17/25 09:58 AM ET
They had forfeited to Graham early in the season**
AirborneHokie96 • 10/17/25 08:23 AM ET
VHS is not using power points this year. District decides who advances**
HOKIE75-79 • 10/17/25 08:00 AM ET
I don’t think your statement is entirely accurate.
GCHokieof91 • 10/17/25 09:39 AM ET
Just for the rest of this season
Jethro Tull • 10/17/25 07:14 AM ET
Exactly but clickbait fake headlines get more views.**
