I will probably be confronted by stating these opinions, but I am sick of seeing it happen. I do not know why Letcher County's Admin. thinks they have to go out of the mountains or our area and pay upright of 6-figures per year for a coach to come in whenever we have qualified coaches who have grew up in the area, know the program, and would probably take a lot more pride in running it. There are coaches that we have formerly had on our staff that the boys respected, trusted, and worked hard for- who deserved the job. Our boys don't even like these coaches! I have heard it straight from the players themselves. Not only do they not like the staff but they are constantly worried that the administration or coaching staff will "create" another job in the district for someone who also happens to have an all-star son. Our boys have played in this system for years, working hard; and for them to have their spot taken is a little hard for them to swallow, and I don't blame them! There are boys on that team, quality boys, who are quitting and looking into the possibility of transferring schools (if eligible) to play elsewhere, all because their families don't have money or they aren't kissing the coaching staff/administrations hind end. I feel sorry for the players because it is not their fault! If thats how the administration and coaching staff wants to run that program, then mediocre seasons and anger/frustration from the fan base is exactly what they deserve!

What a homer! Go ahead tell us how great things are going in Jenkins that seems to be where your concerns are. You are not a LCC fan but a LCC critic. Are you ****ed because they didn't hire Maggard, or is one of those transfer kids starting in front of little Johnny again? Why don't you take little Johnny and put him in some green uniform so he can get some playing time. Why not show up at the school board meeting and ask them to pass a resolution to keep any kids from transfering into LCC so little Johnny can get some playing time. Pointing fingers at coaches or players don't help! Yes, I saw one coach drop a wide open pass on the 3 yard line, I saw another coach fumble on the 1 yard line going in for a score, and the other coach fumbled on the 4 yard line, etc... All of the kids that I am around seem to love the coaching staff-so little Johnny doesn't speak for the whole team.
