The Black Bears have a long bus ride. I hear practice has been going well this week. I'm ready to watch a good football game come Friday. Go Bears!

Cawood is my Alma Mater and will always be special to me too, but come back and visit when this new facility is complete. Over the years there has been a lot of sacrifice by a lot of men who have worked very hard moving coal out of the mountains so that their youngins can have the things they need. All of them wanting more for their kids than what they had. I believe that when the Black Bears take the field on Friday night's at Coal Miner's Memorial Stadium that they will honor the men and women who have helped worked so hard to provide such a nice play go play and watch a football game in the mountains. We're all excited here! Anxious for this season to begin and hope we may be able to squeeze a game in on this new field this year.

Thing looking good for the Black Bears this season. A lot of work still to do to reach their goals. Going to be an exciting season Future site of Coal Miner's Memorial Stadium Work beginning!!

Hmmmmm this sounds familiar.

Congrats to the Black Bears on their district championsip!!!!!!!!!! Keep it up!

The boys have the will to win no matter what obstacles have been set before them. Couldn't be any prouder! Coach Larkey is doing what he set out to do when he came here. It's happening. Fun to watch things unfold here in Harlan County as each year progresses. The Black Bears are on a ROLL!!!!!!!!!!!! Love the heart of of seniors this year too. Good example for the young guys coming up.

:thumb: Glad to have both here in Harlan County!

Crazy things can happen sometimes...even to the Bluebirds. Just a reminder. http://cincinnati.com/preps/2002/11/30/wwwprep2b30.html

Coach Tom Larkey is at 251 as of today. Hopefully 252 tomorrow.

What happen Bear Paw? They did this last season over there. Came back in the playoffs last season and beat Southwestern and redeemed themselves thankfully, but I thought we were more prepared this year. The coaches will right the ship, but I'm sure this was awful to watch. It was hard to listen to. This is too good of a team to go let this happen. We'll be alright. Got a few games to get ready before district play. We knew going in that Pulaski was a good team and had a lot returning, but it sounded like once the Black Bears got down that they just couldn't recover.

Let's go Black Bears!!

QB Jordy Brewer will be a Jr. this year and I think he is ready to go. I can't think of anybody who has worked any harder than this kid to improve his game. He's built a lot of muscle and Coach Eddie Creech has worked with him continuously. He's been patient and kept working hard. He should have a break out season this year and be a leader for the Black Bear offense. Also, Jr. OL Mike Smith is a HUGE kid and should be clearing a big path for the Black Bear backfield. Senior DE/TE Jordan Calton will wreak havok on opposing teams offenses. Expect another HUGE season from him along with OL/DL Sr. Brian Owens and DL/FB Jeremiah Eldridge. RB Jr. Marcus McMillian-lightning RB Jr. Cody Taylor-thunder WR/DB Sr. Dylon Smith who returns this season after an injury from last season will make a HUGE difference. He has speed, real speed! We hope everybody has forgotten about him. Sophmores LB/FB Tucker Lewis, DB/QB Austin Maggard, LB/RB Jake Middleton each started last year as Freshmen and are stronger and faster than last season. Could be a couple of incoming Freshmen turn some heads this year. That bunch of Freshmen are full of talent and enthusiasm. I can go on?? LOL I'm leaving out a bunch I know.

I read it that he had "been there" meaning he had been assistant coaching AT Letcher prior to being the head coach.

It was a three way tie for district and a non distirct game decided the first seed last year. This district is very competitive and is up for grabs. Harlan County returns 9 defensive players and I believe 5 or 6 on offense. Should be able to do a lot more offensively this year and the defense will be very solid again this year. They've been dedicated during the winter and spring. I think this year HC will go over the hump and will have an outstanding season. Glad to have Dylon Smith back from his injury. He's a special player on both sides of the ball. I believe we'll have a lot to cheer about this year!! Go Bears!
