[Fly Like a Duck]

I still say that this is a program that year in, year out is going to have a shot at winning anywhere from 6-10 games and a very legit shot of playing for a Region Championship most every year.

Again, no offense to the other schools, but I don't see Bell County falling on any harder times than Casey, Estill, Knott Central, Powell, Jackson, Magoffin, Morgan, Breathitt, etc. are going through (and, some have unfortunately been going through those hard times for a good while).

There are so many teams across our state that know their fate every year in January. There isn't an offseason program and/or a coach that will change any of that because of outside factors that they can't control; others in their district/region are just better..always have been, always will be (yearly-random exceptions, obviously). Bell, though? That district and region (outside of Corbin) is as wide open and level of a playing field as an aspiring head coach could ever hope to find.
