You could have 100 team members and still not have 50 football players. I'll take quality over quantity anyday of the week. If Coach Larkey had let the players away with not lifting, not going to camp and not running at practice, there'd be 200 players. Bottom line is that most of those that quit were not willing to pay the price to win.

That's what it will look like this year. Last year it was an intertwined HC.

I watched this kid in person 2 times last year. Big, strong, and very fast. He's alot faster than he may look. Glad to see him get the credit he deserves, he's the real deal. I wish him the best and hopefully he'll be a UK Wildcat come next fall! Love to see kids from the mountains getting looks at D-1.

Good! They should be proud of what they did. They need something to show for their hard work. They will get those out someday and look on them as proudly as Bell does their state rings. Man, I hope so badly that some of the mountain teams can beat Bell Co. next season.

Having said the above, Bell County did have some impressive kids. Lawson and Marcum both had excellent showings. There were a couple of others. I am sure they had some kids that were in baseball and track that could have done well as did some other schools.

One thing I know from going to these things in the past and watching them is that it is not quantity of what you bring. If all 13 had placed in the top two or three, they'd have won the meet going away. Muhlenberg County won 3 or four classes last year and only had 6 lifters. All 13 had an equal chance. You don't just get handed 1st or 2nd because you bring a lot of kids.

Yes, Tucker is only a 8th grader.hes total weight was 950 for the meet.:eek:

Maggerd will be head coach after next year. I guess he will be a assistant for a couple more years.

LOL.what ever you want to say ,but the lewis kids done pretty good. Do you have a middle school kid that can stack up to him?

I heard he put on a show today at the Lynn Camp powerlift meet.

It is a lot. Lots of kids doesn't always mean lots of depth. I do know that most of the kids like the TEs, RBs, WRs, FBs that they will have next year will not be full time two way players. Most of those positions are shared by a few kids. So, most of them aren't on the field as much as it would appear.

I have heard they look pretty good on the O-line this spring.

Opinions and styles vary.

Still not buying it. What is unsound about it?

Also to add to the Rockcastle defense being unsound and figured out, in 07 they lost one game 15-0, 14-6, 12-2. I think those are the scores. Hardly giving up a ton of points.

Just trying to make a point that Knox was a strong team. I know NO one can say anything about Bell.

11-2 in 06 down in 07 after losing everyone 8-4 last season with the loses coming to Bell 2 times- 4A state champ, Whitley 5A semifinals, and Knox who by all rights had Bell beaten who by the way won the 4 A title. All the while playing unsound defense. What do you find unsound about it?

I may be remembering the Estil game wrong. Maybe there were just two punts, anyway, what they did to HC was nothing compared to what Breathitt did to them twice. Those games were ugly. They still haven't stopped Fugate. I think he just now scored again.

Forgot about Estil. Most of that came first half though. Once HC made an adjustment they struggled to move the ball in the 2nd. They punted twice. Up that point they had only punted twice. Once in the first half of the HC game and once in the Fleming game.

And by the way, they were in the top 10 rushing defenses in 3A. Take away the Breathitt games (which I know you can't) but just for the heck of it they would have been even higher.

It is the same scheme Rock uses and they have proven to be one of the best teams around. I was just defending Polson earlier and trying to find a way to say it. There were lots of mistakes made but he knew what to do and got into position to do it. No one ever said HC did not give up a lot of points. And there is much more to the d-line play than just knocking the o-lines' legs out. You may see that but there is more to the picture than that. No one lined up in the I and ran it on HC. It was all from the spread and no one was chopped against the spread and no one was left one on one. And anyone who does not know the value of Glen Roberts does not know football from the standpoint of what all he brought to the table. He was there EVERY day ready to go whether he was hurt, tired or whatever. He was one of the few senoirs who actually bought in to the defense and did his assignment each play. That defense, just as any defense, will not work if kids have their own agenda and don't play disciplined football. Glenn was the epitome of that. All HE cared about was winning, not what he looked like or his stats. No defense or offense works in any sport if the players don't do as coached. Give them another year to get people in place who only care about winning and can commit to being there and giving a daily effort and then talk bad about them.

3 wishes is right. I watched them in the rec bowl this year and there were big, tall, lean kids running all over the field with Harrison Co. jerseys on.

Anyone know the schedule?
