High school Football on the radio

Belfry's radio crew is top notch and they take a lot of pride in their radio broadcasts. East Kentucky Broadcasting/Mountain Top media definitely keep the radio broadcast game alive.. Pikeville also does a good job with their games as well.

Belfry is on 96.5 WXCC for all home and away games. Used to be CoalCounty96.5 now I think it is called The Mullet or something like that. They usually have a brief pre-game show and they usually stay 10-15 minutes later doing a wrap up with final stats and thoughts as well. Bobby Norman is the play by play guy, Steve Mickey does color, and Nee Jackson does stats and adds a little color as well. Mickey is a figurehead in the Belfry program and was a longtime D-Coordinator and Haywood's right hand man... he also basically reinvented Belfry's feeder system. 

Norman is very good at play by play, Mickey brings tremendous football insight you rarely hear in a radio booth, and Jackson updates every scoring drive and gives stats at the Half in addition to final stats. You will get a Belfry centric/slanted broadcast but the guys go out of their way to avoid being blind homers. One thing Norman does that is a dying breed is he goes out of his way to update, score, time, and field position as often as he can.

Best crew around these parts for sure.  You can really follow the game when listening to them.  

Bobby keeps the sponsors happy too, mentioning them very often throughout the game.  I look forward to hearing the Dr Josh Leonard stat update and whatever the info is from the Varney's Tax Service scoreboard. LOL

We were blessed in the 90s and 2000s in NKY with the game of the week. Randy Jones, Kevin Rengering were awesome. 

Loved those guys! Would love to be able to listen to those broadcasts now.

? It constantly changes.

4:23 to go in the 3rd on the VTS scoreboard. Or belfry leads 7-6 on the VTS scoreboard. 

et cetera.

I sometimes wonder if when Bobby is watching college football on Saturday and someone walks in the room and asks what the score is he wouldn’t say “we have Kentucky trailing Ole Miss 27-20 with 3:13 left to go here on the Varney Tax Services scoreboard… dang it”
