Prestonsburg defensive end Dave Shaffer signed today to play at UVA Wise. Wise is in the NAIA and in the Mid South Confrence with top teams Pikeville, Georgetown and Univ. of the Cumberlands (Cumberland College).
Congrat "Lil Dave", I hope everything works out for you. Heck I may be blocking you this coming year :thumb: .
Congrats Buddy make us PROUD!
Congrats Dave...I hope you have a great career at UVA-Wise like you did at Prestonsburg. This is the kind of kid I would love to see Pikeville College sign, a homegrown kid with a lot of talent.
Congrats Dave!!! Hope you have a great career at UVA-Wise!!! Had a lot of fun playin football with you at P-burg!

Yeah, no sh**. IDK why we didn't sign some EKY boys after football was over. I know Paintsville's FB Wes Ward and TE Kevin Williams both sent tape to teh coaches, but nothing has happened. I know Coach Runyon was contacted but IDK what was said. I know Kevin Williams had a try out with UVA Wise about a month ago and he said it went good, maybe UVA will sign him also, IDK. I know that if the Pikeville atheletic dept. and director and contributors want more EKY boys playig up here then they better get a local coach that will bring in EKY boys. It's a shame some of the talent that has came through these mountains that haven't even been looked at by Pikeville, alot of boys could have really helped the program IMO, but they always go out and get guys from NC, SC, GA etc.
