Oh wow.

Don't sleep on Harlan County in terms of the top of 5A this year. Probably not a top 5 5A team yet but one that could certainly creep into the conversation as the year goes on.

Eastern Kentucky had a team in the 3 of the 6 title games and won 2 of them a year ago. Pretty good argument for them being number one.

Job has been filled. Matt Chandler is the new head football coach at Jenkins.

Camp invite no contract. BUT the fact that he has the opportunity to make that dream a reality is beyond awesome. If he makes it that's icing on the cake. Man the 2016-2017 school year continues to be the year of the Golden Eagle in Paintsville!

Was he on the football staff? What is his football coaching background?

Wow great hire

I would think that 30-34 somehwere in that range would be "young". And obviously anyone younger than 30. But I am with you I have no idea what the average age for first year head coaches is. I would like to know. Would also be interesting to know the average age of all head coaches.

A guy who is 39 is not a young head coach

Did Adair ever make a final decision on a head coach?

That's interesting to say the least????

Scott Grizzle? That would be a very very good hire for Greenup

Pikeville, Belfry, Valley and apparently Phelps all nice places to play. Pike Central and East Ridge subpar. Well East Ridge playing surface is really bad as far as seating/backdrop it's actually not bad.

I believe three were freshmen. One thing that is important to remember is that usually MoCo doesn't include freshmen on the Varsity roster and keeps them totally seperate. (Except for a handful or less that elect to participate in summer practice)

48 listed on the official KHSAA roster. Still not a great number for 5A football if that held through the season. I'm sure they lost a few along the way though.
