According to all of my buddies from Pburg, that’s why kids left Derosett. He was too hard on his players. But, I ain’t gonna say the group of boys that went Paintsville weren’t tough, because they were absolutely tougher than new rope.

I think one or two was apart of that small groups of parents that just didn’t like him for other reasons off the field and then it was a chain reaction from there. But to get back to Magoffin if I was them I’d eat a football to have him, they have never had anything close and this may be their only opportunity to have it.

Me personally, I agree. I’m a Paintsville alumni. I do not know Coach Derosett personally. I am friends with most of the guys from Pburg my age. I played against them. I attended a lot of Pburg games after I graduated with those friends of mine. I have alot of respect for John and his teams. Being a parent of 2 boys that attend Magoffin County schools, I would love to see them hire Derosett. I know there are many others at Magoffin that agree.

I guarantee a Paintsville Alum would love to see him hired within 25 miles of Paintsville. The tigers made a living off him for sure.

Again, I’d let my kids play for him in a heartbeat. I will say this. If Magoffin fools around and makes the wrong hire, mine won’t be there much longer. If they don’t wanna football serious, we ain’t wasting our time.

With all due respect if that’s the top candidate I’m sure any hire they make will be the “wrong” hire. But I agree it is tough. You all are in an interesting predicament where there’s just not a lot of quality people interested. Which the he case for a lot of schools on this area. Being from Floyd county myself, that’s usually the case.
