What you should have done was get Combs to nut up and vote for expanding back when Warren and others wanted in. Then you wouldn’t have to worry about playing RV. But he knew he couldn’t dominate the league with the additions, especially Warren, so he wanted no part of that and he ruled VC while he was there so that was going to be a no vote every time. Yes I realize that VC people like to pretend it had to do with a 30+ year grudge, but it didn’t. It was because Combs didn’t want to have to beat Warren for a league title because he knew he couldn’t.

Re: TVC-Ohio 2024
VC wants no part of Warren. And they better keep RV on the schedule. I know people are all jacked up and thinking the 1990’s are back but that’s not reality. Yes they won the conference for the first time in forever but the conference was way down this year. Even Nelsonville was down and VC just got past them. Then got waxed in the playoffs. So the smart thing is to stop trying to get rid of the wins on the schedule. But what do I know, right.Old Shorts wrote: ↑Wed Nov 29, 2023 11:21 amSo the excuse has changed from the grudge from 30+ years ago to a 1.5 hour drive huh?

Re: TVC-Ohio 2024
Yes, fifteen years ago it was a "30 year grudge" Some of those people were around when Warren burned every bridge while joining the SEOAL, they were administrators, people with decision making power. That brings me to my second point, the vote was never Coach Combs', that was principal decision that gets their directives from the superintendent. Who at this point was a coach in the 70s, who remembered how Warren left. Next, yes, it was no secret that Coach Combs wanted to play Warren, one because he respected them, the other, he did not want to play anyone in Washington County. He never liked going to Belpre or Marietta. The trip was too long.Justy wrote: ↑Thu Nov 30, 2023 5:42 pmVC wants no part of Warren. And they better keep RV on the schedule.

Re: TVC-Ohio 2024
Truthfully I have to agree somewhat with Old Shorts that Combs didn’t want Warren in the conference because it would be another huge challenge even more so than Athens to win it.hawkeyepierce wrote: ↑Sun Dec 17, 2023 8:01 pmYes, fifteen years ago it was a "30 year grudge" Some of those people were around when Warren burned every bridge while joining the SEOAL, they were administrators, people with decision making power.

Re: TVC-Ohio 2024
Well since you put it that way, I’d say seventeen (17) years of jock sniffing and flunky duty certainly qualifies you as an expert on the mind of Matt Combs. You should write a book.hawkeyepierce wrote: ↑Wed Dec 27, 2023 11:20 am Sure, I mean after all Old Shorts worked with Coach Combs for seventeen (17) years, I did not.

Re: TVC-Ohio 2024
I could write a book. We had a great time, we played great basketball. Your insult is noted, but again shows that you have no idea what you are talking about, which also demonstrates your character. Moreover, Coach Combs should write a book, he took an irrelevant DII school that everyone did not mind playing to a relevant DII power-house that people respected. A program that was built on defensive toughness, unselfishness, and being prepared for any opponent. A program that has twelve conference championships and three district titles, more than Warren by the way, but Coach Combs and Vinton County was always the scared one. Yeah, that doesn't compute.

Re: TVC-Ohio 2024
We got a good look at your character when you said it was embarrassing that the girl from Alexander won player of the year. Then even more so when you tried to deny it. So, what was your role in Combs’ program?hawkeyepierce wrote: ↑Thu Dec 28, 2023 3:44 pm I could write a book. We had a great time, we played great basketball.

I watched the silliness on the sideline all 17 of those seasons. At times I thought if Conbs stopped too fast you would end up with a brown spot on the end of your nose.hawkeyepierce wrote: ↑Wed Dec 27, 2023 11:20 am Sure, I mean after all Old Shorts worked with Coach Combs for seventeen (17) years, I did not.
