[Fly Like a Duck]

Russellpride I agree with some of what you say but there are good coaches in east ky. But this hire ole bobby ray cause he is from there thing is horse dung. And it makes no difference if you are from somewhere or not if you don't win the natives will burn their own at the stake!!!!!!! And if anybody thinks that a guy wouldn't take a better job if it came along is crazy, from somewhere or not. You tell me this, lets say Billy Bob is from Blank County, he is the head coach there and played there. Y County offers Billy Bob there head job and gives him 10,000 more bucks and a lesser class load. What you think he will do?

Eagle. I most always agree with you.

But, you have taken one part of my original comment and blown it up.

If I read correctly, I did make the assumption that Coach Brewer knew ball, right? Again. I HAVE no idea who he is. None. All I know is what I've read, and if we want to give this site credibility, then I'd like to think we can believe a good part of what we read when it comes to serious threads. If not, why have it? Neither here nor there, but if Powell County was looking for someone that they knew:

-"Pirate Football" probably meant a little bit more to than others.

- Someone younger, who if using Vegas odds was going to stick a while a little longer.

-someone who had played college ball, who went to Powell County. Maybe somebody the kids from there can look up to and say, "He did it, why can't I?"

...then I have no reason to believe this wasn't a solid hire for them.

For the record. Coach Burchett is eligible for full KTRS benefits I believe. That's ultimately why he decided to hang it up.
