Back in the day when the district consisted of Belfry, Phelps, Feds Creek, and Elkorn City Belfry dominated that district. Belfry eaither won the district or was runner up for 10 or 12 years in row. Early 80s they had the team that the Bass kid played on then the Helton era.
Belfrys basketball wows is a direct result of how great their football team is. Those kids focus so much on football from 4th or 5th grade on up that it does not allow time to develop as basketball players. But its great for the football program.

I agree with you to a point but the coaching is just not there ether some people are made to be a head coach and some are not and I've heard Thompson say he wasn't a good head coach so it's time for us to get better I think.
