It's been awhile since I've posted, just been looking at what everybody has been saying about Breathitt. This is just my opinion.....

First off I would just like to say that Breathitt has one of the best head coaches in the state. Coach Holcomb is a coach that has been able to adapt to the changes over the years. What he does with his offense has proven to work. My thinking is, these boys aren't buying into it, and it almost seems like they don't trust each other.

One thing that Breathitt has never had a problem with is leadership. This year to me it just looks like nobody is stepping up and being that figure. Breathitt lost some key players, but I honestly don't think that Scott Bailey and Juan Little where that much better than Jared Wolfe and Ben Alex. Ryan Allen was a pretty big loss more so on his ability to block.(they never threw the ball last year lol). The biggest loss that the Bobcats have went through is when John Paul Chapman went to Pike Central. Don't get me wrong the coaches at Breathitt know what they are doing, but when you put Mike Holcomb and John Paul Chapman together, I would feel pretty confident with any team, if they are my coaches lol. John Paul deserves a head coaching job and hopefully he will have the faith of the folks over at Pike Central.

My opinion is if they could get some leadership, they could turn things around. Now this team is dealing with adversity, and something Coach Holcomb always said to us when I played, "if you want to be a champion, you have to deal with adversity."

Bobcats I wish you the best of luck. I hope you guys turn it around and I see you in Bowling Green. To you seniors, you don't want to look back and wonder what if. Step up and come together...I know you can do it. Trust your coaches, and trust each other.
