Nice video. I recognize a lot of those places.

Chuck is a pretty good guy too.

The hospital donation was a good thing. Compared to the old one it's very beneficial. The old one should have been condemned years back.

I can't believe Van High school is still open.
 
Even as a Van High alum ('77), I admit I wasn't excited when Gibby returned to WVU. Obviously, his energy, enthusiasm, and coaching abilities has long ago changed that opinion.

I often wondered if his departure and time at other places had matured him. This video seems to confirm that he learned where his passion lay and what was truly important to him and his family.

Welcome home, coach. Thanks to OP for sharing the video.

Okay, Die Hard, I grew up in the Freedie section of Van. If you know where that is, you truly are a die-hard Boone Countian.

Bet Gibby know where Freedie is located!

I remember my folks mentioning Bob White. I lived in Blue Pennant coal camp and Janie, suburbs of Whiteville until I was 10. Then moved to Ravenswood. I would have gone to Sherman High.
