Mr Jet is hard core Pikeville fan and like I said before he has his opinion like you do and never did I say Pikeville would have won those games earlier if they had of made those changes before. My point was and still is they are a lot better with the changes and in your remarks you insinuated that Pikeville was only a 2 man team like as you stated again Johnson Central have 4 or 5 good backs and that makes them a more competent team and I agree they have some really good backs and really Pikeville has 3 more backs they would be very effective if used and 2 of those are sophomores and as Johnson Central as a team leads in rushing and as you put in a previous post Pikeville level of competition besides the first 2 games was pretty weak but I could say the same about Johnson Central but I understand some times a team has to schedule who they can get to play them other than district games. I am not saying Pikeville is better than anyone but I believe a more weapons you have in offense the better team you have now that is purely opinion but I am from Belfry and know that that offense works for them and they have hardware to prove it just as it has for Central  but saying some team would beat a team bad is a opinion not fact unless it has happened but statistically it gives you a thought that’s what would happen. Now always like and agree with a lot you say but even that unless it’s a fact is still just our opinions matching no more

Just an opinion, but I am not the one that is expressing the opinion that my favorite team could play on equal terms with any team in the state, in any class. Some people do express some crazy opinions and that does not make those opinions as valid as any other opinion. Claiming that Pikeville has three running backs on the bench that would be very effective if they were playing is an unsupported opinion because they are not playing much. Claiming that Pikeville is better than Corbin and Covington Catholic (Jet's claim, not yours) is also an opinion that conflicts with the available evidence. In other words, not all opinions are created equally. Some are supported by facts and others are purely speculation.

I understand that Johnson Central's JV team defeated Pikeville's JV team last week at Pikeville. Is it safe to assume that some or all of the Pikeville running backs who would be effective, given more playing time for the varsity team, participated in that game? I do not know this for a fact, but I am guessing that JC freshman running back Logan Music did not play in that JV game because he is a varsity starter on defense, but I could be wrong.
