They will be a major threat in their district, no lower than 2nd and there’s a strong shot at 1 and I seek at least 2 playoff wins. That air raid is gonna be scary with Noah there. Good luck eagles!

Well this post quickly turned into Noah Noah Noah. I’ll be honest, with the weak schedule that Leslie has I’d say they can win a few games but breathitt and somerset won’t be two of those.

It was a good scrimmage for the Eagles.
Could they have lined up and threw verticals to Kilburn, Simpson, or Hacker? Yes. But that accomplishes nothing.
Eagles were hit hard in summer with injuries on the line, so Coach Whitaker worked on the run game. Worked on things needed to see and improve on.
Collett threw a couple TD’s. One to Kilburn and one to Kaden Shepherd. Tanner Estep had a rushing TD for the Eagles. Think I saw 8-9 guys catch a ball, and 5 guys run ball. QB was not live, so Collett didn’t run.
Defensively looked like Leslie play 25-30 guys in their 30 varsity reps. A lot of switching. These guys will hit you!
There were 30 Offensive and Defensive Reps. Then 10 JV reps for Knott offense. After that, Knott decided to end the scrimmage extremely early.
As to the post above scrimmages are used for evaluation and working on things. Not running score up.
Eagles have a lot to work on. But they have a chance to win a lot of games.

Can’t wait to watch them play p burg I think it will be a good game if they can get some players back from injuries. Elliott is no joke kid is fast as lightning. And I wonder if the kilburn and collett connection will be enough for the eagles to make a push for region champs. We shall see in time.

And if reports are accurate we’ve already lost two staring offensive linemen for the season. One to a an ACL injury and another multi year starter to a non-sports related medical issue. So that is concerning.
As far as the scrimmage went, we didn’t absolutely dominate Knott, but we also played a lot of players in a lot of positions to figures some things out. Our offensive timing needs some work mainly because the changes in line personnel had the QB scrambling more than he should’ve had to. Our run game isn’t super strong, but had a few sparks throughout the evening. Balancing run/pass will be important to keep defenses from zoning in only on pass coverage. Additionally I saw a couple young players step up on defense that will be a great benefit for us.
Overall, we’ll win some, and we’ll lose some. Somerset remains the top of the district until proven otherwise. I think we can compete with Breathitt partly because they’ve taken a bit of a hit with their injuries (from the unfortunate accident) and a couple transfers. But time will tell. And we are less than two weeks from knowing.
