The George Wythe coaching staff needs to understand that there are 11 players on offense side of the ball. Don't get me wrong Beamer is a he'll of player. But he is not the only player on offense. Looks like to me all they want to do is pad his stats. I will say it's always been who you are at GW and it always will be .This coaching staff needs to wake up and use the players that they have.I mean the first quarter they used the run with the pass and it worked they were up at one time 14 to 0. These kids fought back the whole second half. But you don't start a drive with a 20 yard pass when you are getting 5 to 6 yards on the ground and it's 3rd and 10 and they know you have to pass. The Thompson kid was getting 5 yards a pop did we kept feeding him no we kept throwing the ball 20 yards down the field. These coaches must know they don't have the same receivers that they had last year no where close. Run the football. You run the ball to set up the pass. Going to be a long year at GW. On pissed off GW fan
George Wythe coaching

I will see if I cant get some footage. That field is all to hell I went out on it after the game. I don't think whoever they hired to do it has done it right.

The coaching will show just how horrible it is this year finally. The last few season we've had so much talent it wasn't funny. Now we've got just enough to win but you also have to have the coaching. And that's one thing we don't have. And it's going to become more and more clear as the season goes on. Any close game we are in that comes down to the wire we will get beat. Not because of a lack of talent but because we have no coaching.
They are what they are, the booster kids get to much spotlight. The talent kids with no booster parents don't get the ball enough. Their D1 all state wide out was standing three rows down from me cheering them on from the stands because his parents are not part for the booster.
The football team chose not to support the lady maroons pre game meal and the boosters took them out to a restaurant for pre game meal. They deserved to lose, all that money won't buy them victory!

If true, this is sad. The players deserve better.
Sadly it's true man and I'm so glad I'm not the only one seeing anymore. I said it from go he is an absolute horrible coach. And I also said it last yesr that we would have kids simply refuse to play for him. We lost 3 amazing starters 2 Sr that would not play the last year they have because of him. And 1 Jr who went to another school. Yes it's only 3 kids but 2 outstanding WR and 1 outstanding Linemen all of who would've made us better.
Man at this point I'd take a blind goat over what we have. Hell Fort89 you and I have had many words in the past. But I'd gladly welcome you as the HC at GW. I know you at least know what you're talking about when it comes to the game of Football lol.
Not trying to steal anyone's thunder here but G Master Blaster W and the rest of the "Roons" fans, sadly, we are in the same boat, floating aimlessly out to sea without any hope of being rescued... I truly love the "Fighting Blues" and everything they stand for but this program is currently in a bad, bad place... Yes, we are banged up and have several starters out, Yes, we are young in several key spots and Yes, we need better leadership on the field but after watching last weeks game compared to tonight's game at "The River", it's quite obvious that the Blues woes DOES NOT fall completely on the shoulders of the kids... They absolutely busted their A$$E$ on the field tonight but in my opinion were never given the opportunity to be successful.. Some are going to disagree and I'm damn sure going to piss some people off and that's fine.. I know football and I know how to play football and when you are "that" predictable you have given your opponent the advantage and thus the opportunity to beat you with minimal effort.. The Blues are so much better than they played tonight and this game should not have even been close.. I guess that's football??
It's not about the losses the past two weeks for me. It's the things I've heard, the things I've seen unfold, and the way I've seen the team respond.
He's gotta go.
He's gotta go.
I'd say there's an 80% chance he's hearing the same name I have
For me I with Loyal it has nothing to do with Ws and Ls. For me it has to do with what kids I have personally coached. Kids I've know there whole life looking at me and almost crying and saying he is not a real coach. I have zero reason to be mad at the success cause we've had plenty. I have no reason to be mad at the kids moving on playing at the next level. I have no reason to be mad at the blowout wins we've had for 3 years now. No the only thing I can be mad at is the fact these kids want nothing to do with this man. These kids are talented but they will not respond to him and that has shown for 2 weeks now. Both game were with reach but his decisions have killed that and it's stopped these kids from having a chance. This man runs a D with no safety agi st a team that can air it out. No once does he change the defensive formation. And on O it's 1 of 3 plays QB up the gut sweep left or right and the oh so glorious spot pass. And on occasion when he sees the defense can take her deep pass away well that's when we throw it deep. He is nothing short of counter productive it seems like all plays are called to slow us down. Idk like I said I'm with Loyal he has got to go and hopefully he will never get the chance to ruin another team.
It's not even about the X's and O's for me. That's philosophical. We can all agree or disagree on that. Every scheme is DESIGNED to win to a point.
He doesn't relate to the kids. He has no pulse on what's going on with them. He's not teaching them anything.
Sure I could break down film and point out everything I FEEL is wrong. It'd be a long list, I won't lie. But it's not about X's and O's. It's a much bigger problem than winning football games.
I agree and that's my over all point he is not giving nor earning respect. And as you said he just cannot relate to these kids on any level. And I don't know that I've read a more true statement my whole time on this site. He hasn't taught these kids a single thing about becoming better men on and off that field. This has nothing to do with football 10-0 0-10 I don't care. It has to do with these kids becoming better as humans and he definitely isn't the one to help them do that.
I'm so sorry that you seem to be so narrow-minded as to think that it takes money to be a QB at GW. What it actually takes is talent, dedication, and years of hard work; something that it appears you have little knowledge about. As for Nowers, he abandoned the team due to a poor attitude and anger problems.
You don't break 1 school record and become tied for another one due to the money you have, which we don't, by the way.
Someone said old,money at GW.Well it's on both sides of the family. Beamer and philipi. His dad was a senior my 8th grade year at GW.His mother was in my class. But this has been a problem at GW seance my time at GW. It's always been who you are at GW and it always will be. There's only been one coach at GW that played the talent at GW and that,was Paul Wheeler. He put the best players on the field if you didn't like you could take your kid and leave. One of the best. So that old money at GW said he had to go. Because little Johnny didn't get to play.He was their for three years and took GW to the State on his third year. I still think GW will be okay but as it is there is no region C champions on the field at GW this year!!!!!!!!!
Now I guys I gotta step in and say something here. This isn't about bashing kids and I can't set back and see Deacon demonized because we are losing. He is a very talented young man and deserves his spot as the starting QB. All 3 of the kids who didn't play made that choice due to COACHING! Their choice had nothing to do with Deacon. I agree with everything you've said about coaching but not about a kid who is simply playing the game we all love.
Thank you GMasterBlaster! I'm glad you understand the kid's decision has not been about Deacon. No one seems to recognize how hard he works and the time my brother puts in outside of practice.
He is, but I'm not hearing it from Wytheville. I'll believe it when I see it, nonetheless.
Besides, we don't even have a job opening right now. It's just rumors.
Iam in no way saying that Deacon is the reason for GW problem. Deacon is a he'll of a QB. I myself don't think that they would have won last 3 years without him. He is and should be GW starting QB he a dam good player. And I hope that no one thinks I am bashing him because in no way am i. It's the coaching staff at GW that's the problem. And the way that the boosters get what they want. That is also a problem at GW. And one other thing what in the he'll did they do to our beautiful field looks like crap
Now with all of that I agree and they wanted to re sod it so they did. Dook what I'm hearing it won't be fully ready until next season.
You seem to have a hard time understanding this, but that's what JV is for and that is also what next year is for. Deacon wasn't always a starter and had to wait his turn, as will those that come after him.
I totally agree with you man. But this is not going to change anything. People can say I'm close to the program or whatever but facts are facts. I know football and played at a 4A in NC and these same problems going on everywhere but I will still standing on the right side of the press box and cheer on GW win or lose. I just hate it for the kids. Playing the same 12-13 boys on offense and defense most of them are tired by the 4 quarter they need to rotation some more ppl in and especially on the line.
No one bashing anyone the stats are facts not opinion. 110 passing, 24 rushing, one TD and one turnover a game. Those numbers are average at best. There are other kids on the team that work just as hard and what love the opportunity that he has been given. 110 yards passing over four years adds up I am sure, but there are kids all over the state throwing for more yards, rushing for more yards and winning. I don't care I will not mention GW again or their players on here. I sit 10 rows up from bottom students side on the aisle I don't mind chatting. The coach there wants to win just as bad as you do, I betcha.
I see the stats like everyone but Deacon is by far our best chance to win at QB. Not saying the other kids we have aren't good but he is our best shot. Everyone of us had rough patches as players it will pass. But we have to support these kids as much as possible. Cause these coaches damn sure won't. We as fans cannot blame the kids the blame has to be 100% on the sorry excuse we have for coaches. The kids do as told on the field and that's the problem what they are being told is wrong. And it's finally showing because teams can match what we have this year. The last few it didn't matter how wrong he was cause we were simply better than everyone else.
Beamer doesn't call the plays. Harner does. He doesn't have the speed or the type of player They had last year but I think its time to put some new wrinkles in the spread wing T offense.
I had a saying when I coached sports. When we win, it's because the kids did their job. When we lose, it's because I didn't do my job. I'm saying this as a head coach because ultimately it all falls back to him. I also say, A head coach is only as good as his assistants.
These coaches we have now want to take all the glory for themselves. And give all the blame to the kids. And it's supposed to be the other way as Fort89 said. Idk man I've said it before 0-10 or 10-0 I'll be there til the light are off for good. But these kids deserve so much more than they are getting right now.
