I totally agree Boo Boo is the reason Valley sucks this year. I would take former players that refuse to play for him and I would beat Pikeville by 30. I'm talking about just from this year Emmanuel Newsome 6'4, John Johnson 6'4, Kyle Goodson, Mike Bartley, Donovan Bentley, Colby Newsome, Justin Smith and I could just keep going on an on. This is the reason Valley sucks so much this year is because their best athletes refuse to play the politic game and they all love Rodney Rowe.

All these kids had to do was what Coach Booher asked them to. BUT they couldn't!! Some of these boys that you mentioned had to be kicked off for "serious" reasons. No coach in America would have kept one of these players you keep bringing up. He made national headlines and no coach could have excused it!! If these kids are so great then they should have played. What point are they trying to prove by not playing high school basketball, which is the greatest time of their life!! The truth is these kids couldn't play by the rules and the current Valley players can. SV lost some very good seniors last year and that is one reason why they did not win the district this year. The other reason is that Pikeville locked them down with an incredible defensive effort and they play harder than anyone in the region. And also, the Pikeville players, school, and community believe in and support their coach. SV should try it sometime because for the last 4 or 5 years everyone just whines and complains about the coaches when they lose. Quit playing the blame game "Chosen 1". Virgie and Dorton always dominate the county in Jr. High then start to drift apart. You better get it together like the maroon has gotten it together or you might have to sit and watch them cut the nets like you did last night for many, many more years to come. Because they beat you last night with a first year coach, 2 freshmen and a sophomore in their lineup down the stretch!!! And then you wonder why (Virgie) people like Todd May and Daniel Harmon want to sit on our bench instead of yours!!
