Glad to see the middle school doing well. Huddleston didn't his dad used to run the gas station down town? I thought Dave Lennon did coach, always around the program, just thought he was on staff. I can not believe he is a sherrif's deputy... anyway, so who does coach JV/Freshmen? If they got 40 players at those two levels they would at least need 3 to 5 coaches at least.

I went to the Alumni Bowl at Williamsburg and they had what looked like 7 to 9 coaches + who ever was in the box. I would think Whitley would have double that. I know Coach Campbell really worked hard to build that program to win 7 to 9 games a year. Anyway, I hope Whitley can get Harlan Co. but if they combined Cawood, Cumberland, and Evarts, each school had a very strong football tradition but with that being said they should have trouble getting numbers out like Whitley because of how large the county is.

Keep me updated RIUTG! Good luck to all teams in Whitley Co too!

Yea, the middle school is doing very well. I believe there headed in the right direction. Coach Hudd's dad did run the BP gas station and he's still around and attends Whitley games regularly with Hudd.
Lennon was always around the staff a lot, he does know his fair share of football being around the game for so long and has helped coach a little bit, but nothing major. He's been a sherriffs deputy for a very long time, he's actually the sherriffs dept's school resource officer that does the truency work and all of that good stuff i believe.
Campbell made Whitley what it is. Without him, there would be no program and we'd still be having 2-8 seasons like were until his arrival. They are only short about 1 or 2 coaches compared to what they had when Campbell was still coaching. I believe in Campbells last year they had around 8 coaches all together, not counting grad assistants. I think they are around that same amount today. When Black was an assistant under Campbell before going to Whitley they had around the same amount and those were some of Whitleys best teams.
Im expecting some decent numbers this year. We should have a lot more kids this year, but its all about getting them to stick with it and keep playing, but thats been a problem at almost every school.

And no problem man, if you wanna know anything just ask. Shoot me a PM anytime friend :Thumbs:
