Breathitt County 2019

BoyleCo · 06-20-2019, 03:10 PM

CA Collins will play at Breathitt this season. I couldnât be happier. He is one of the top running backs in the state and Breathitt win games they would have lost due to how good he is. I do think the lack of line play will limit them however. If they really did lose their QB and top WR, that hurts.

I haven't heard anything about this, but nothing would surprise me anymore in the world of high school recruiting. I did hear that Collins will be transferring back to Breathitt.

Collins is officially a Bobcat. This is huge "shot in the arm" for the program.

Get happy, because Collins is at Breathitt.

Such an odd move. Leave a school where you had a shot at a title and go to one that has no chance. Makes no sense. I live it though. Maybe Beau Allen and Darion Dearinger want to go to Breathitt too. How bout Longmire and half of Johnson Central too.

It's called Job, Job and Job. Could be the tropical climate and sandy beaches. lol

Who is the toughest team on Breathittâs schedule? Leslie County?

~~jgrlzz~~ · 06-27-2019, 05:13 PM

I was on the KHSSA scoreboard site and noticed Breathitt lost their game with clay County. Have they or does it look like they'll be able to pick up a 10th game?

Makes about as much sense as your position rankings.

It looks like on the Clay County Schedule that Breathitt game was removed and Magoffin County added. Good luck Breathitt on finding another game.

Cat Daddy Wrote:The Bobcats are looking to build off an 8-4 season last year. They return the majority of their skill players, but the offensive and defensive lines are going to take a hit due to graduation. The schedule is very favorable, and the new alignment, puts the bobcats in the "thick of things" for a regional championship. What are your thoughts?

Aug 23 at Jenkins

Is their quarterback from last year still with the team?

With Collins and the solid core they have back I am going to say Breathitt puts together a tremendous year. The drop to 2A will also benefit them as I don't see a team in District 8 that I would say should hands down beat them.

I am going to call my shot at say 13-1 with a Regional Title before getting beat soundly in the Semi's.

Breathitt County is in District 7 not 8

District 8 is who they would play in the playoffs and why I have them at 13 wins. I dont see anyone in their Region that I think beats them on paper right now.

With the new RPI system itâs not guaranteed that they will play the District 8 winner for a region championship though.

Agree. Breathitt will probably be the best of a very very average group of teams on the Eastern side of 2A

And what happens if Breathitt meets Beechwood for the region championship....

Although Beechwood May be on the Eastern side....Iâm referencing the actual EASTERN part of 2A. Beechwood will roll thru whoever advances to the semi-finals

It is not guaranteed Breathitt County plays the district 8 champion. They could also play the district 5 or 6 champion. Is that not how the new RPI system works?

Beachwood would win.

Bulldogs4Ever · 07-02-2019, 07:02 AM

Beechwood is beatable. Dang yall make them out to be the Green Bay Packers or something. Wouldnt be surprised to see Breathitt win a state title.

Cat Daddy · 07-02-2019, 01:52 PM

I would put Breathitt's skill kids and QB up against anyone in 2A this year. The biggest question mark for the bobcats will be their line play. They lost three or four starters off of last years team, but they have some promising young talent coming up. Not having an experienced line would be the difference maker, when playing a team like Beechwood. I did hear a rumor about a lineman transferring to Breathitt. Any one have any ideas on who that might be?

I heard the same thing. Very interested to see who it is.

😂 Iâm sorry your son wasnât mentioned. Iâm sure he is good enough. Coaches and media and scouts missed him but Iâm sure he is awesome. Maybe next year.

Oâhara, Collins, and Slaughter is a very good trio. Who are their other impact skill players?

mandan · 07-02-2019, 06:39 PM

Dalton Manns had some big games for them as a RB last year. Don't know how many touches he gets this year with Collins aboard, but he's good.

Collins and OâHara should lead the team in rushes just like Gross and OâHara did last year I would think. I wonder how theyâll handle everyone up front graduating.
