[Old School Hound]

From the score you can gather not much is to be said about this game, but I’m going to say more than I probably should.

First off, I’m really impressed by the composure of Letcher Central. They could have easily been baited into the nonsense that happened after every whistle but they stayed within themselves and let Perry beat themselves. Even when things seemed like it was meaningless the kids were out there forcing turnovers and playing hard. Can’t say enough about how much they impressed me.

Now, for where I make people upset. I was there in 2000 with Perry went 0-10. I dealt with Rockcastle and Larkey demoralizing the Commodores by 60+ points. I was there for some beatdowns from the Blackbears and watched a lot of self-inflicted losses, but I’ve never been ashamed to be a Commodore until tonight. The kids are just kids but tonight discipline was just an all-time low. The coaching staff chirping with people in the crowd. Fans fighting amongst themselves and getting thrown out. The administration wasn’t even exempt from showing themselves tonight. This is without a doubt the darkest day in the history of the program and I say that without hesitation.

I saw this last season at Corbin. The Perry kids played hard but not disciplined . The coaches raised hell all night with officials until one or two of them was escorted off the premises by the cops. The one coach acted like he want to fist fight the official. A couple of Perry fans were fighting in the stands with someone. Cops had to be called. Just terrible. It didn't just start tonight. It's obviously been a problem for awhile. It starts with the people that's leading these kids. A cleansing of these adults from the program needs to take place.

Again, tonight was just a culmination of what's been going on for awhile. Definitely a black eye on Perry Central. And now they get Corbin coming in next. The Hounds need to take care of business early and get out of there. Don't get suckered into retaliating against this thug-like behavior that the coaches have set in motion. Can't afford to lose players for the Pulaski game.
