I see no reason why they can’t make it back to the region.

Bump.

I wouldn’t like having the bye week the second week of the season for one that’s a lot of games in a row and for two you just got the season started and everybody in excited just seems to early.

Has Middlesboro found the replacement for their AD?

The million dollar question....

Will Coach Adams continue the "Larry French/Chuck Smith" defense or will we see a return to the Confusion Defense he ran in HS with Coach Kenny Roark?

If that’s the whole team it’s only 32 players which don’t seem like a lot but maybe that’s the average around there.

It looks as if they only had 31 last season.
