Belfry Wins

All I know is that Holy Cross will be there with a fairly large fan base . Looking forward to the trip down . Very good atmosphere . Not too confident on how we will fair with Belfry though ....

I agree with you and I know that they have invited some top notch teams but they haven't had many of the top mountain teams in a while. Most of those teams have only been once or twice. Why haven't some of them ever been invited back; Beechwood, Henry Clay, Bell Co, Ashland, Danville. There are many more. I think that it would be a better bowl game for the Pike Co Bowl if lets say Pikeville vs Danville, Belfry vs Bell Co, Shelby Valley vs Breathitt Co; Pike Central vs Somerset and so on and so forth.

One thing is they had Valley and Central playing other schools for a couple years and they got killed every year. I mean no offense to them but neither is on the level to play those teams and draw the big crowd. Valley is getting closer.

But another reason why scheduling is so hard is due to gas and they are so many bowl games now that it seems like everybody plays in a bowl.

Phelps/Pike Central & Pikeville/Corbin will be at the Hambley Athletic Complex in Pikeville like every year.

 

Shelby Valley/East Ridge & Belfry/Lou. Holy Cross will be at Cam Stadium.

 

And yes, I'd say that each team will be wearing the cheap jersey's again.

The Valle/East Ridge and Belfry/HC game is at Valley on Friday night.

Can't help it. My Peyton disdain runs deep.

They played Belfry in Pikeville, and it is a long drive, but an annual game between these two now would be worth it.

 

I know Belfry has tried to work something out with Bell the last time schedules were made, but I can't say the same about Rockcastle. I hadn't heard that before. I don't know if the poster was suggesting Rockcastle was ducking Belfry, but I'm sure that isn't the case.

 

Sometimes these rumors have a way of getting out of hand. Two teams will enquire about a game and for whatever reason it doesn't work out. Before you know it, fans of one team will say the other team is afraid to play them. :lol: He said, she said.

Yeah I knew of several teams not wanting to play them for whatever reason, but I don't know if they contacted Rock. I never heard if they did. But I would really really like that game.

Do you know anyone who has attended this college? Or do you personally know a Funeral Director or Mortician?

 

The college is located at 3111 Hamburg Pike in Jeffersonville, Indiana, the northeast sector of the greater Louisville, Kentucky metropolitan area, including Jefferson County, Kentucky and Clark and Floyd Counties of Southern Indiana.

 

Does anyone know the neighborhood around this college? Like is it a good/bad one, places to shop/eat, ect.

 

BTW, if you hadn't realized by now after reading this, I am pondering very seriously on going to this school next Spring/March & was wanting some sort of feedback. What kind of feedback I'm not sure but feedback nonetheless.

I got a friend in the one in Jeffersonville, I will email her and see what she can tell me.

I talked with somebody who was at the press conference today, I knew they was there and phoned them. They said that the decision was made right before media day began and he told his players after they took the team picture.

My thought and their thought to was what could grades factor into this? Weren't they released yesterday?

By the way Boom just to tell you how bad both communities are for football, I wasn't even born at the time and remember stuff from the game lol.

If memory serves...I think the rule change might have something to do with reporting to the field. I think that there was a lengthy delay in the start of that game due to each team waiting for the other to take the field first. Just a guess.

Yeah, Highlands like to get the other team to gather on the field and blow the cannon off for intimidation purposes. Belfry wasn't going out on the field until after Highlands came out.

I met Hoopz at Applebees in Pikeville one day a few months back. She is dating one of those guys that play for the EKY Miners.

Yeah Hoopz is pretty cool. She dated "Bo" Jackson I believe, who played for the Miners. Brain freeze right now but I believe that was the guy she dated. She was very faitful fan of the Miners and a pretty cool girl. Ohh yeah she was cute to, not that I noticed.

I wished Belfry could get a stronger schedule, but in their offense they tried, but you cant force teams to play you.

I dont understand why teams wouldnt jump at the opportunity to play such a qualitly opponent like Belfry. I can understand teams a great distance away.

But look at a team like PBurg. If they would have scheduled Belfry the last two years, it would have benifited them probably more than it would have Belfry. The competition would be as strong or stronger than any team they faced in the playoffs. Not even to metnion the gate the game brings.

I'm not throwing stones at one team, but that is just a team that came to mind that Belfry tried to get a game with.

1. Billy Madison - One of my fav movies ever.

2. Happy Gillmore - Another great movie.

3. Big Daddy - Another good moviie.

4 - Chuck and Larry - I didnt think I would like this movie, but it was hillarious.

5. Mr. Deeds -He has had a slew of great movies, but this one is a movie I enjoy over and over.

I go frequently but never really recall people smoking in my section, now drinking that is another story lol.

Agreed. I don't think they did the program any long term good hiring Stewart...

I wasn't happy with the hire at first, but the coaches they brought in under him, including the one in waiting makes me feel better about the hire.

I watched Walls play at Marshall in a few games this past season. He would be a great walk on addition. He has a very nice shot and gives it his all. He is fairly athletic as well.

With more possible depth upfront on the defensive line than linebacker, look for Corey Coleman to move to linebacker. I really think Belfry will have to make that move, but Coleman is the kind of kid who can play anywere.

I must confess that NAFTA has been a double edged sword.

 

It has helped most of our nation and our economy.

 

On the other hand it crippled and economically ruined many places in our country as well. (I live in one of those areas) When your community literally has been built on Furniture and Textiles, you can see the ramifications for what NAFTA and Free Trade Act brought.

I agree 100 percent here. Clinton was no means my favorite president, and NAFTA IMO is the worse part of his term, I think economy still feels the affect of it today.

It will never be moved from Pikeville period. Because the bank towers behind it and is great advertisement. But I have no problem with that one its logic. I wished since they took it out of Belfry they would atleast put Belfry and Pikeville together on same night.

UCLA is a little banged up right now but I still don't see WVU being able to handle their size and athleticism.

Well do you think WKU will be able to? :walk:

Made my weekend because I am as much of a WVU fan as a UK fan. But I will admit, I didn't think they would do it. Good job and get those couches burning.

Everybody is right in better tema won, but Kentucky playe well. Crawford really has stepped up, just a shame it tookt him 3 1/2 years to play like he has been capable of since he has been at Uk.

Two keys to the game, which was already mentioned, speed and rebounding.

Marquette used their speed to get the baseline several times, which is a no no in basketball.

One thing I hope improves this summer is free throw shooting of Jasper. I believe that would improve his game so much. For exapmple in the final minute Kentucky was down five, and Jasper tried to force it to Bradley or Crawford adn hit Bradley in the head. I believe if he knew he could shoot some foul shots he would be a lot quicker in taking the ball to the basket.

Overall though great season, and these guys played hard and I got to respect that.

I watch the Eers often, and they are truly a big man away from beating Duke. I just dont think guard play and shooting could get it done, but you never know. West Virginia is decent in size but not muscle.

^ BOO....but just got beat by them as well :sssh:

Well if you want to throw stones lol. But hey atleast we wasn't the only one that got upended. But its ok you will have nice bragging rights in a few days, because I like UK and WVU, I just hope my boys from Morgantown loses to Zona haha.

As for UK, I think maybe a first round win, but it is a toss up.

At Rupp I would agree, somewhat. However, away from Rupp they haven't proven they can really beat anyone.

They beat the SEC Champs on the road. Geez what more do you want. :dancingpa

Why can't they be playing their tails off for themselves? I know plenty of players that have worked hard and played with heart but hated their coach. I'm not saying one way or the other on the team's feelings of Billy Clyde (although IMO it's mixed... Legion and Mills aren't the only ones who haven't 110% sung his hosannas, but there are some that I think buy in completely.) I'm just saying that doesn't prove anything to me.

Although I will agree Pearl COY hands down, and he is being a homer for saying different, I have to ask did you see some of these guys last year compared to this season? They defiantley play a lot harder this season.
