Henry Clay 2017

What does Henry Clay need to do to improve in 2017? What do they need to keep doing to be successful? Remember, please be constructive.

They have the athletes.

They have the athletes.

That's yet to be determined. It's going to get real interesting once the new school is up and running to see who actually ends up there.

Henry Clay will be much improved after rough year last year. Offensive line is key because they have plenty of athletes and speed to compete with anyone. Spring practice revealed much improved offensive line. Will lose some kids to new school but have plenty of talent to replace skill positions.

Henry Clay...they have plenty of athletes and speed to compete with anyone.

I don't mean to be critical, but we hear this every year, and every year they finish with 3-4 (or more) losses, can't beat Scott County, and flame out in the postseason. I'm hoping they make the step forward this year - I want city football to be strong across the board. :thumb:

It is not being critical, but rather, a very good question you pose.

I do not have the answer.

I do know that they picked up Cooper in their non district schedule at the end of the year which should be a very good matchup for both teams!

Point taken and I agree with your multi year outlook. I was really comparing last year and this upcoming year. Anyone close to the program knew that last year was going to be a struggle and if you heard that HC would be much improved from the 2015 season, I apologize for someone's false reporting. HC dropped non-conference games against Pulaski County, Knox Central, and Campbell County and picked up Johnson Central, Cooper, and Pulaski Southwestern. Still play Ryle at Lexington Catholic Bowl.

Like you, I hope someone in Lexington takes the reigns from Lafayette's success the past couple of years.
