HC is not just feeling the effects of consolidation they are feeling the effects of a mass exodus of the working class from Harlan. There are very few jobs left here to replace all of the closed mining operations and a decrease of funding because a huge decrease in tax base. Anyone who has watched middle school football should have seen this drop off coming. The talent level in Harlan is not what it was. Not trying to bash the players in any way or defend the coaches either because I do have a few problems with what I see scheme wise from the coaching staff. You can not force a square peg into a round hole.
