These message boards crack me up because most of the time people have no idea what's going on. Josh Wilks hasn't played a down yet but the Dr's have cleared him so we can't wait to get him back and going.
Belfry has LC's upmost respect. They have set the bar and are a great measuring stick for all programs in Eastern KY.
LC has 1-2 Sr's starting on offense and 2 SR's starting on defense. LC is probably one of the youngest teams in the state. I can't say enough about how hard the kids have worked and this team is going to get better and better every week! The kids attitudes have been great and they have worked their tails off. I don't know when that wall is going to come crashing down but I honestly feel like in my heart it's going to happen in the near future. Belfry is a huge favorite this week as they should be but I love the group of kids LC is going to battle with. The goal is to get better and better every week then creep up and win the District. LC has played well thus far they just have to take that next step and play every play with everything they have! I think the kids are starting to figure out that it only takes one player taking a play off to cost a ballgame. We have to protect the ball too. LC is growing into the offense and the potential to be explosive is there. The defense is flying around right now as well as it has in the past 7 years or so. I can promise you that the theme is to be physical or stay at the house!
I really hope our fans stick together because this team is going to grow and grow IMO. The program is heading in the right direction and the future is very bright at Lawrence Co! You have to crawl before you walk and this group of kids are really close to taking that first big step IMO. No matter what goes down Friday night the season is a marathon not a sprint. Pulling off the upset over Belfry would be the upset of the season but LC has won games as this big of an underdog before in the past. Those teams were filled with a bunch of kids+coaches that knew they had something special going on that others couldn't see from the outside.
To me LC and Belfry are a lot alike. Both have storied programs in small towns with passionate fans. Both are at their best when they are physical and play team ball! Belfry has the size, speed and experience hands down. This is a great measuring stick to see where we are with the youth we have this year. I expect our kids at LC to come out and play loose with a swagger the Dawgs haven't had in awhile! If we aren't giving everything we have every single play then I will be really upset! I hope this turns out to be a great game!
