I think that if Whitley can control the boards they can come out with a win tonite at South Laurel. Id say Whitley 62 South 56

Whitley vs. South Laurel tonite at South Laurel who wins and by how much?

I believe Hazard still pulls this one out over Perry......58-53.

Whitley was in the region finals in 1980 last...... whitley 30-22

The Colonels have at least 2 Football Players coming out.. if not more..

The Colonels had their first scrimmage last Thursday as they traveled to Pulaski Co. to pull out a 74-58 victory over Pulaski. Good start for the Colonels so far...

I agree that Corbin is holding the #1 spot. But as far as South goes Im going to put them down at #3, with Whitley #2, then Williamsburg coming in at #4. I think that Corbin and Whitley will be a dog fight this year. Whitley has played over 30 games this summin with a 22-9 record. Thats pretty impressive if you ask me. I talked to one of the assistant coaches and he told me they beat Hazard earlier today by 20. I guess we'll just have to see how it playes out in the 50th District.

Rich Prewitt would be a great coach for the Colonel program. He does know the kids extremely well, especially with him being a principal in the system(Maybe Middle School) not real sure there. Plus he has been at Whitley before and had probably the best team Whitley has ever had IMO. The A.D. at Whitley should def. go for Prewitt.

Bubba what I have seen over the past couple of years is the program at Whitley is all about pleasing the parents. That is what everyone gets involved in. Until this stops you will not be seeing any District or Region Championship Trophys in the Colonels Trophy Case.

Well Bubba IDK about the assistant coaches..Siler is awfully young and Baker, I just dont know if he is ready to take over the Colonel program. Both of them seem like great coaches but this program may still need a little more work then what these to can offer. I think if Whitley County was smart they would try to go for Whitaker or maybe even one of the two Vernon boys from Cumberland College. At this point I think the Colonel program just needs a coach who will stick with it through thick and thin. That would be the best thing that could happen for this Colonel program. Sometimes I think that "Chemistry" has just as much or more meaning to a team then skill or athletes. Good Luck Whitley County in finding a great coach...

I hope that this Colonel program gets a good coach in there for those kids. Wow!!!I feel sry for the kids there at WCHS. For some of those kids its the 3rd coach in 4 yrs. thats horrible. Who do you think Whitley should offer the job to?

Yep it was Deatons choice. The Colonels will still be fine w/o Deaton, they are doing extremely well in summer camps. 12-3 to be exact

Yep..its official. He is back to Somerset as of yesterday morning.

Whitley County is now open for a coaching job...

Well today the news was spread that Colonels coach Mike Deaton will be going back to Somerset. He said it was family reasons. What does everyone else think about the situation?:ylsuper: :ylsuper:
