I will agree with fox sports on this one. Both schools were good before they were united. You can have a good team, then add several players from another school and that will make you really good. Look at the Belfry teams that won it. They went to state, but could not get over the hump, so they added several from WV and became really good and this is what happened to Mercer and they are really potent. I think if the coach can cure the fumbleitis his pirates have a good chance to win again. Tongue

I don't thnk anyone in 2A can play Mercer close, weather it be Russell,Belfry, Middlesboro or whoever. If Mercer dosen't win it all you can quote me and I'll admit that I was wrong but I just don't see it. I don't think anyone can play them within 21points in AA. Thats JMO.

Fox I agree with you. Mercer co is looking tough . There opponents combined record however is 48-66. But they have an explosive backfield. Everyone is a expecting Belfry/ Russell matchup. But you know Middlesboro and Corbin they are no push overs. If devil and pirate fans get too excited. It could be a Corbin /Middlesboro matchup in the regional finals.

I have to disagree with that comment. The fans have no bearing on the outcome. Now if the Devils and Pirates look past Middlesboro and Corbin then it could mean a Middlesboro/Corbin state semi final. No way that it could be a regional final. That is what we are playing for this Friday night.:thumpsup:

joethegeek..
you sound about what joe kinzer would say..

Ref Devil · 11-14-2006, 12:00 AM

Whether the fans overlook anyone or not, I could care less. I know the players and coaches are taking it one game at a time. Russell's got a great coaching staff who I know doesn't overlook anyone. I don't think most Russell faithful are overlooking Corbin but there are always a couple who think the name across the jersey will win a game. The team knows they must show up and play well in order to win, period. The know Corbin is a very worthy opponent and could beat anyone on any given day.

As much as I would Like to see the Devils make it back to back, I just don't see them getting by Mercer Co. Mercer has just to many weapons and like said above should be in 4A and playing 2A. Just don't see how they were put in 2A.

The crazy thing is that the two schools that were consolidated are still going to there old school just play sports as one school now that is just crazy.

Like I have said in other thread Mercer County only has 69 players on varisty thats including 3 freshman.Russell has 64 listed as varsity without any freshman listed so for a 2a to have over 60 players. I think that speaks wonders about the football tradition.Another note Mercer has 200 or 300 more students than Russell and Russell almost has as many players.

No Hard feelings at all, You guys have a Hell of a football team this season and I'd probabily put you Guys at #2 in AA. Mercer is just absolutley loaded this season and If I had to pick a team to upset them I'd have to say Russell or Middlesboro but they'll be awfully tough to beat. Anyway good luck at your run to a state title and hopefully you guys will prove me wrong.:Thumbs:

joethegreek · 11-14-2006, 09:55 PM

I know that the players and coaching staffs aren't looking ahead to the semis. The point that I was just trying to make is that if the fans from Russell and Belfry jump the gun and anticipate a rematch. Everyone might get fooled .

joethegreek · 11-14-2006, 09:57 PM

I meant to type Semis. I don't type that well.

One kid from WV! The other two went to elementary school in Pike County! I don't count that as a transfer in! I will say Jones was true WV.

I can honestly say that I have not seen Mercer either in person or on tape. I am sure that many are like me and are picking with their heart instead of their head. I would love to see the East win it again but it will be tough. Of course someone like Larue could step up and be a giant killer like Ft. Campbell last year.

My point was adding several good players can make a good team great. That is why it will be hard to beat Mercer. Adding a great back as David and who ever will always help. Tongue
