Prestonsburg 2025
#61
The offense they use to run was only the visible part of the problem from those teams. I watched those teams. Players would give up on plays. A whole lot of blaming those around them. Very little discipline or effort. Very little off season conditioning or expectation that players would lift during the off season. No effort to involve the feeder system or coaches in the high school program. Brewer is a great guy but still has a lot to learn about building a football program. When he arrived he was given a grace period by the fans because the cupboard was bare. Two entire classes of players had left for Paintsville to escape the Derosette regime. After that the teams didn’t perform.
It’s AA football. You operate within what your players can deliver. You don’t keep pounding the square peg into the round hole. The Blackcat staff acquitted themselves well. They ran an offense and defense that suited their team and not some personal football philosophy.

All you read on here is schedule and if you go back an look at the state champs most played a competitive schedule and I know Sayer didn’t and someone mentioned PT but I don’t know the teams out west to comment on them but personally I think if you don’t play competitive teams your team is going to stay at the same level now Prestonsburgy had a great year but to get better the schedule has to change some even you guys on here said after the loss to Breathitt County they played with more intensity and it makes a difference who you play

It does. To an extent. Now unfortunately RPI is as equally important if not more. You do need tested to get stronger for playoffs but You also need to be healthy to be stronger for playoffs and playing at home has proven to be extremely valuable so SOS although it helps, isn’t quite as important as it once was 6-7 years ago.

Has to be Johnson if they have any plans of throwing the football. He’s the significantly better quarterback. 

If they’re going to line up and run the football out of the I formation then it can be Holbrook. Johnson will be their best player so if that’s the plan he needs to be the feature back.

All depends on ur formation. If your going to be running the ball I’d rather have Johnson running it which is maybe your fastest player on the team or patton. If your going spread I’d take johnson as the QB. I’d like to see a split back formation with Johnson and Patton.

Johnson could play any skill position on the field and be dangerous. Wes will make sure he succeeds and gets his touches
#70
I think to give you the best chance to win, Holbrook plays QB and you use Johnson and Patton the same way you used Harris and Elliott. My opinion of course.

Also, I find it funny that Pikeville people still talk about their strength of schedule. Someone hang them a banner for it. All it got you was a loss in the same round as Prestonsburg that “played an embarrassing schedule”. At the end of the day, those seniors can say they had a more successful senior season than Pikeville. But keep thumping your chest because your coach is dumb and thinks he should play Trinity every week while allowing it to beat up your team physically and mentally.

Calling Coach Mac dumb is pretty funny. How many rings has your coach or school have???? One of the reasons for the tuff schedule is most of the local teams are afraid of playing them other than the good programs like JC, Belfry and Raceland. Keep beating your chest for making it as far as Pikeville in the playoffs lol.

All last season I was pulling for pburg because they have been down and I they think Wesley will be a fine coach with some more experience. But dang some of u guys kill me. 1 winning season and damn u guys are the best team in eastern KY. Challenging pikeville thinking u guys can hang with them. U guys had 3 games decided by the refs last season. But that's how it goes sometimes. But don't set there on ur phones being delusional thinking ur ready for the likes of pikeville or any team close to that level. Let Wesley build this program and in maybe a few years ur ready
