I have heard Cole is pound for pound one of the strongest kids on the team?? Any truth to that?

 

Yes.

Thank you

Yes, his bench is around 290.

To change the subject a bit, I want to know what Somerset fans expectations are for this season.

 

Do you see the Jumpers having enough defense to stop Belfry/SC in the playoffs? Somerset also have not seen a defense like Belfry's this season, do you feel that Corbin's offense will be able to chug along as it has been of late?

I think the Somerset - Corbin game next week will be a good one. It will give both teams a strong game getting ready for the playoffs.

 

As for playing Belfy-Sheldon Clark in the third round of the playoffs, well, we just take them one game at a time.

We Wouldn't play Belfry/SC til semi-state? Because Breathitt would most likely be our regional championship opponent, if they advance that far.

District 5 plays district 8 this year in the regional playoffs this year and 6 plays 7

Strike, I hope the comment made above from me wasn't perceived as "attacking" because I'm a huge fan of Cole and his talent. It's always good to see kids from this area get big time offers because it helps all of the players get more respect from recruiters. SW, PC & SHS have some terrific athletes year in and out, this being no exception. I believe there are at least 3 or 4 other seniors from Somerset alone that could play on from this team at some level in college. PC is young but has a couple of seniors and I'm sure that SW's got a couple as well.

 

For the record, Vandy liked Cole for his speed (he ran 4.3 or slightly better twice at the Vandy official visit), his academics and character, I'm sure. Kentucky will wish the had given him more attention but I think that Vandy still would have won out because he's going to school for the right reason, an education. He wasn't looking at Vandy & Stanford to get a championship ring.

 

Best wishes to all of the county kids.....Go Maroons BEAT Lincoln!!!!!
