Now that Pikeville has hired their head coach what is the potential of this program in the upcoming years? Coach Jackson from what I have read seems to be a great coach on and off the field. Pikeville really exceeded my expectations with this hire, and I really believe they have found the coach that can bring back the program to being one of the true powerhouses in Eastern Kentucky and Class A football. Is the talent in place for Coach Jackson to work with that can have a shot at a state championship. I firmly believe he will build the program back up to have a realistic shot at a state championship, but every great coach needs sometalent to work with. I don't expect a state championship next season or the next but I believe we can be competitive on the state level once again in the playoffs. I believe Coach Jackson has two potential stars in the Honaker Twins, but what else does he have to work with in the upcoming classes? I am really excited about this hire and anxious to see what Coach Jackson will do with the Pikeville program. The hiring of Coach Jackson defintely takes away the sting of Coach Mac leaving IMO, and I think the program is better off with him at the helm. The boys need to listen to him and works their butts off in the wirghtroom and get ready to bust it once practice starts. With community and school support, which I firmly believe he will get, I believe great things are going to happen at Pikeville High School in the future.
