Yes, the line is a concern I think everyone is aware of. It’s no fault to the kids out there attempting to play out of position they’d normally might play or play as a 14/15 year old freshman. It’s the hand that was dealt to coach Hager and he’s not complaining. The boys are working hard and the coaches are doing their best to make this work, because like mentioned above, the skill talent is there. If those guys get a hole or can get outside in space Prestonsburg is gonna be dangerous. I believe the defense is going to surprise some folks. I hope teams decide to elect to kick it deep to Elliott, Harris and Patton also. Special teams could win Pburg a game this season, that’s how fast these guys are.

I’m happy with how everything is going. There’s over 40 players on the roster, media day was awesome, Blackcat Madness was great, 7v7 went great, camp was good, now the pads are on and scrimmages are upon us. We’re gonna see how a successful spring and camp translates. I’m excited and I hope this bunch can prove many wrong. It all starts at Leslie County and that should be a great game like last season. Vibes are great around the program and Blackcat football is on the rise.

First scrimmage is Friday at East Carter with them, Johnson Central & Powell Co. Scrimmage at Shelby Valley on the 17th.
