I'm not exactly sure on this, but I figure this is the place to ask. I've heard talk that junior Tyler Stewart isn't playing this year? I've not been able to get in contact with him as of late to ask, but if this is the case, any word on why he isn't? and is it being looked at as a loss? I know he is extremely athletic, and can play a variety of positions and could exceed greatly under the right system and work ethic, which Larkey will undoubtedly bring to the whole HCHS squad.

 

I saw him practicing last week. If he weren't, I'd say somebody would be knocking his door down to get him to come out. Good kid! Glad he's a Black Bear!

I'm glad to hear that..I had just heard recently he had some sort of injury that may sideline him for the year, its great if he is playing:jump:. Incredible athlete, can play all Linebacker positions, Tight End, Running Back and Full back with success, IMHO, was used terribly wrong at Cawood, but Larkey will know how to use all of these kids to make this team successful, cant wait to see how they do:D

Speaking of excitement I heard that the Black Bears did pretty well at football camp. I know that one of the Bullitt teams was there and South Laurel.

 

Anyone have any further information?

I can tell you this they have one heck of a O Line.:scared::eek:

Tell us more. What did they do that stood out to impress you?

Great post and I wish Coach Larkey and the Black Bears a lot of luck this season!

If that O-line consists of the young men I'm thinking of, there will be big holes to run through and the QB will have a lot of time to pass. O and D line will be their strengths!

I would have to disagree. The O and D line might be good and or pretty doggone good, but with backs like Simmons, Green, Gilliam, Clark, Burgan, ( the LB,FB from Evarts can't think of his name) and I know I am forgetting 2 or 3. I just can't see them being stronger on the line than the skill position. But again that is what makes it fun to sit back and guess. I do think Ison will be one of the better lineman in this part of the state. JMHO!

I believe your referring to Dwight Burgan? The QB situation should also be fun, with Cochran from Evarts, and the kid from Cumberland, Zach Blanton I believe is his name, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'd assume those two kids should be competing for a starting spot, both looked to be really good QB's from what I saw, and heard last year. Also, the O-Line, they could probably just plug Cumberland's O-Line from last year in and have one of the most successful lines in 3A:eek:. I just think its too bad we won't see Hilton vs. Larkey this year, but theres always next year, I cant wait to see both teams play this year, good thing I'm only 15 minutes away from each

(Glenn Roberts) 2 or 3 of the lineman that should start for HC used to block for him @ Evarts. Which is why he is good. Guess I'm partial to those guys in the trenches. They do have great talent in both areas though.

Cochran graduated. Blanton is the quarterback. Roberts is the fullback/linebacker from Evarts.

Wow, I thought for sure someone last year told me Cochran was just a Sophmore or Junior at the panarama game, oh well, Blanton is capable. More than capable.

I predict that if Harlan County enters the Breathitt County game undefeated.....

 

The BGP serve will completely explode from the ammount of traffic coming from the entire greater Black Mountain area...

Why is there a controversy about playing 3a ? In what Division does everyone believe that Harlan Co . should be playing ? Like the Mascot's name . How was it chosen ?

Not sure if this is it or not but I believe Harlan County has the greatest black bear population in Kentucky.
