Girls basketball has nothing to do with football program. Boys basketball/baseball coach will not leave he has 2 sons playing time to assure. As far as firing someone there has to be justification. Girls basketball coach has winning record. Baseball Hagy is schools all time leader in wins and only had 1 year to try to bring program up which he doesn’t have coaching ability to do. So several more years of both. Nothing will change with footballs approach and you might see QB tap out after this year. Additionally Burke was also best returning receiver.

I don’t know all the politics that way. I know some of the parents and kids through mutual friends.

I do know Kentucky is at will for coaching. They can be fired at any point. Job is guaranteed at any point. Coach Simpkins is a perfect example. Won big a Prestonsburg and was fired.

Speaking of Prestonsburg, it’s been brought up several times.  Belfry is going to be Prestonsburg if they don’t make moves immediately.

you will have to excuse belfry people for not knowing you can fire people for losing it hasnt been done one time since i was in the programs and im 33...

Hagy has winning record in baseball. Deskins has winnng record in girls basketball. Both have young kids in program and want to make sure they get starting positions. I’m not saying they both do not need to go I am just saying they are not getting rid of either in any sport

deskins has a 51% winning percentage and a 3-10 record in the regional tournament, which he has made almost yearly because the district is awful. he has had a wealth of talent too. mass exodus began in girls basketball long before any other sport. hagy has been the baseball coach for nearly 20 years and has amassed 11 region tournament wins, 6 of those coming in his 3 runner up seasons. also has not had a lack of talent, but im not sure he's ever been to a little league or middle school game.

Thanks for exact numbers. I do believe changes are needed. I just don’t think they will happen. But let’s be totally honest some kids have left that only played football. Thornsbury left to Mingo then Pikeville got multiple college offers. Canterberry kid went to Man to play QB and throw the football. Got college offer to play QB. Ucronis kid went to Tug Valley to play receiver got college offer. Burke left to go to an offense where he will get targeted more than 1 time a game maybe and Jones will get him in front of colleges that Belfry never could. Belfry has a kid at QB who can throw the football but will get limited opportunities and now has lost his best receiver. If your not a RB at Belfry don’t expect to touch ball much
