I’m curious….

Is there any thing to the fact that Belfry has dropped in numbers while Pikeville has continued to steadily rise in numbers? I’m not just speaking in football terms I’m speaking from a school wide standpoint. The pirates had a strong hold on Pike County for a good while, to the point that Pikeville beating them meant something. Now it seems to have shifted the other way around and while Belfry isn’t the Belfry of old, Pikeville seems to be stronger year in and year out than they were when Belfry was on their run. No im not talking about transfers and crap either. Just seems like Belfry is losing STUDENTS, not just atheletes, to other schools.

Alot of those WV kids are staying in WV now, especially now that David Jones took over at Mingo.
