I have worked in that school system and they do not go with the best players there. Politics is big in that system in football and basketball.
They are alot of good players that dont to get to play. It is a family/buddy system and that is not fair to the kids.

I'm not so sure you can really say that these days. In the past for sure but now, not really. This coaching staff is new other than Coach Cecil so the new guys really don't know enough about the folks in Lawrence County to play the politics/family/buddy system. You singled out the QB in your quote and you are very wrong there. His family does nothing with the football program or the staff other than coming to games. Apparently the Coaches felt he deserved that position on his own merit, not becasue of who he is.

I don't really see any kids playing this year that are "brown nosing" the coaching staff? Plus I'd have a hard time seeing Coach Salmons falling for that anyway-he doesn't strike me as that kind of guy.
