[Dr. Truth]

:o If I am correct with whom I am talking to this is Coach Nieces oldest son? Watched you and your brothers play for years. You was a very good football player as well as your brothers. I'm almost 70 years old and the thing that I loved about Coach Niece was how he coached his boys, he was tough on them, but you could tell he loved them as well, just watching him hug them, lifting them up when they needed it and kicking them in the butt when they needed it. It is hard to find a coach now that loved his players the way he did nomatter what back ground they come from. That's why I went and watched Estill many times over 30 years. But Mr. Niece you know as well as I do that it would be almost impossible to keep your players off of these forums. I remember watching a game back in the late 1980's when estill county was playing clay county and you was quarterback and you guys had some little short running back and you guys went into the game a under dog. Well the first half that little running back of yours ran up and down the field on them and you guys had the lead at half time, they couldn't stop him, the second half he might have touched the ball 3 or 4 times and I had to sit up in the stands and listen to people hammer your dad about his coaching and that he was trying to keep his sons stats up because you was the number one QB in the state and you know as well as I do these idiots didn't have a clue about football. I remember seeing your dad one night at a Leslie County game one night watching a play off game, I wanted to meet him, but I didn't get to, but I did get to listen to him talk to other coaches there and he was talking about how the fans was complaining and running there mouths about the coaching. My point is people are going to run their mouths when you are winning and when you are loosing, they will find something negative no matter what, when all they are doing is hurting the kids and the team as a whole. I respect your father as a coach and a man and I'm sure his qualities has been passed down to his boys. I will try to look for you boys at the next game I come to and shake your hands and hopefully get to meet your father. As far as Estill's talent they are big and strong, but I go all over the state and watch football every weekend, man you wouldn't believe the talent that's out there. I wish them luck and let's go out there and root for the team.(players and coaches)

That is why coaches should keep their kids off here. Why would a coach want to read this anyway. 80% of people on here don't know much about football anyway. I have to disagree about the talent, Estill is loaded IMO.
