1. Boyle county does not beat themselves. 2. they do the little things just as if they are of equal importance as the major stuff. 3. The players expend so much energy before during, and after the season that losing is not an option. 4. they do not panic when they are down, they expect to win.

5. It also has not hurt having Bart Johnson (Georgetown college) Jeff Duggins (Mr. football), Brandon Smith (Western Ky) as the QB's. 6. Stability in the program, coaches that have stayed around and have resisted head coaching opportunities to stay at Boyle. 7. Yes, they have had some talented players but so do a lot of schools however, Boyle coaches use them wisely and get them to buy into the system that is best for the "TEAM"

Just a few reasons for their success. also... Chuck put a lot of time and preparation in the first 3 or 4 seasons to get the program built. Chuck also said many times that his "style" would not have worked at most places but Boyle players accepted more than guys from some other schools. they are thick skinned whereas in other places they would have quit... and did. Very demanding... but a heck of a coach.

I've the question of why do you do this since it's so hard and the answer I get back each time I ask is , "because it's so much fun and the coaches are GREAT"!!!! Can't hardly beat that answer.:thumb:

Boyle Co., during their Champingship run, was like a well oil machine, hitting on all cyclinders. They sure are fun to watch. Can't wait till the 2006 season.

We'll be there soon to grab "the tiger by the tail" or Rebel so to speak. Looking forward to seeing the Rebels & Warriors get it going again. With the new alinement in playoffs we may see one another twice this season but there are a couple of other teams I'm sure that'll have a say so about that. Good luck everyone, see ya at the field..........SUPER

You might see me sooner then you think.

I think is the part where Danville's success had a part in Boyle's foundation. Those players on the first few Smith teams had grown up watching and seeing their friends at Danville winning state championships and they were willing to do whatever it took to bring their program to that level. It was a marriage made in heaven. A skilled and highly driven coach with a bunch of players who were willing to sell out to be champions. Once you develop that attitude, the rest becomes a lot easier, even though easy isn't the right word.

Great post...

Getting back to Boyle Co, just heard that they did well in their 7 on 7 the other day. They lost the first and last games, but won all the games in between, which they played five or six games. My Chiropractor told me this today, as I went in for my monthly adjustment.

I THINK YOU GOT IT RIGHT.

This all sounds like some of the same things that Coach J is doing over here at Pikeville. I hope there is similar results.
