[B]Number 1.[/B] There isn't a coach in the state of Kentucky that would be willing to do what Kyle Moore did. Step in after what most people consider to be a legend and knowing that the talent pool had turned into a dried up puddle. It was coaching suicide from the start, but it was this guys dream job to be the lead man of the team of his glory days.
[B]Number 2[/B]. There is NO coach in the state of Kentucky that would put in the extra hours of work like this guy does. Who do you think dreamed up this idea of the Lumberjacks? It wasn't Mike Holcomb, I can tell you that. Without Kyle Moore the spiral would continue until Breathitt football becomes nothing more than a faint memory.
[B]Number 3.[/B] If you could bring in another coach who would it be? Justin Haddix, the guy that bolted the first chance he got and never even put in for the job because he knew that it was a lost cause (no blame assigned here)? You don't have enough money. What's your other options? Bring Holcomb back to the head position? He wouldn't have it because he would be afraid of tarnishing his reputation. He left because he knew what was going on and he did nothing at Letcher because he just wanted to boost his retirement. So please tell me a better man for the job. Better yet, tell me someone that would even want it besides maybe Justin Combs, who's a great guy, and may very well end up being a good coach once he finds a place that will stick with him and give him some time to build a program, but he hasn't even been an Assistant on a team with a successful season.

Kyle Moore was here during the glory days of the mid to late 90's as a player. He was an assistant from the mid 00's up until his recent tenure as head coach and during that time Breathitt won District titles, Regional titles, and was a State Runner-up for one of those years, with several undefeated regular seasons. There is not a more qualified person that would even want the job than this man and if you believe there is, then obviously you need to re-evaluate things and sober up.

What this guy needs is some help. When you have 40 players playing 8-10 or 12 positions it's kind of hard to do things on your own. He has what, 2 assistants that he can count on with actual playing and/or coaching experience. It's a shame that a man with the desire he has isn't given the opportunities that others have at some of these schools being able to at least get someone, who he thinks would be beneficial to the program, an interview. Blame who you want, but if you have any sense at all you would have a talk with you're administration, rather than throwing it at Coach Moore. It began with Arch Turner and his desire to see Breathitt become a basketball school once again, and it snowballed into the pile of crap that was known as Larry Hammonds and Tim Spencer and it trickled down to some others as well. I could name others as well, but those 3 pieces of garbage started it all and because of them it is what you see today and your only hope of ever seeing it return to its previous glory is leaving coach Moore alone, maybe put some pressure on your board members or administration to help this guy out, and working with your kid to be a better athlete rather than telling him how good he is giving him a stinking participation trophy.
