[Chuck Taylor]

Thought for the day for both fans and players: My family and I had dinner yesterday, with a man who is from the Louisville area, that has been a referee for high school football all across the state for over fifteen years. We were discussing our program and he was quite familiar with the Panther coach, even from before he came to Pikeville. He speaks of him with praise, saying that he is among the top twenty coaches in the state. He doesn't understand what the people around here really want... all this man needs is some time to build a true football team. In my opinion, Pikeville is only hurting their program by switching the coaching staff every three to four years. The team needs consistency in order to grow.

I disagree with the assessment that he is a top 20 coach. Win a state title and I will definitely change my mind.
