Watch and see what a good coach does for them. What's gone are the days of making a bunch of excuses. Pikeville has been saddled with bad coaching recently and those days are gone as well.:Thumbs: Pikeville has had plenty of good teams before the 80s and since, something else you seem to be in the dark about...

I agree that Howard and McNamee will do a good job. My point was that they're not going to get the quality of kids that use to be there. Now, they are still some good players there and they will have to develop them, but they're not ever going to have 4-5 D1 players on one team like the 80's, it's never going to be that way again. I'm not saying that Pikeville fans should accept mediocrity, but they should reallize that Pikeville's best days are behind them. It doesn't matter if Urban Meyer is their coach, you have to have the horses to run in the big races. The local teams with the best talent will prevail most of the time.
