[Slim one]

Most of you people on here are absolutely ridiculous. So much hate toward a high school football program for no reason.

2024 Prestonsburg is nowhere near the teams of old. 100% realize that. We are nowhere near on the level of Pikeville, JC, Belfry, etc etc. anyone who says they are don’t know anything… although I’ve heard no one do that. Most people around town realize we are rebuilding and rebooting. For the past several years- this program has been ON THE BRINK OF DEATH.

Wes Hager has came here and played the schedule he was given, excited the community, and gotten the most out of his players. Period. 9-1, and a district championship when most people (me included) thought they would win 3 games. This program is on the rise. It may take 3-4 years to be really competitive with the traditional powerhouses again, but we couldn’t even tie our shoes correctly the last several years. People mocked the hiring of Hager, but he and his staff have exceeded expectations from top to bottom. I know getting on here and bad mouthing the program gets most of your all’s pants wet, but you have no idea what you’re talking about. I know we aren’t winning a state championship this year… I just wanted them to line up and play hard to be honest. Wes probably has a 99% approval rating in Prestonsburg besides a couple jealous folks that had the job or didn’t get the job.

As far as “recruiting” it’s not recruiting when you have kids and their parents from other schools WANTING to go to Prestonsburg. Every team around has cherry picked from the Blackcats for years since 2015. Funny that now they’re wanting to come here and it’s an abomination. Shut up.

And to the Martin County poster who commented “exposed” the Cards lost to Prestonsburg after winning 44-0 last year you moron.

Congrats Breathitt on the win!

I think this is a good post and honestly if not for some good fortune for Breathitt Pburg could have put some more points on the board. Breathitt on the first series going for it on 4th and long in their own territory fooled even the Breathitt faithful. And hitting the under thrown pass on 4th and 18 on the 2nd possession was fortunate. Then on Prestonsburg’s next possession they throw an interception. At home and senior night  things just fell into place early for the Bobcats and it put the Blackcats in a bad situation. A predominantly running team falling behind 3 scores in the 1st quarter and when the run game isn’t working has a steep hill to climb. Great season for Prestonsburg and it’s not over yet. Best of luck moving forward.
