I DO NOT DOUBT THIS. BUT, This is the one thing that kills me about this entire area...ie...EKY. We tend to pick our players or superstars before they even get into high school. It happens at not only Paintsville but every school on this side of the state. I and everyone else sees so many athletes walking the halls because they know they have know chance of getting a chance to show what they can do or have the ability to do on the field. Colt McCoy or Adrian Peterson could walk into any of these schools and say they were a QB and a RB and the would be told by the coaches they that see them as a WR or a OL. The way I see it...until some of these schools..ie. Paintsville, Pikeville, Boyd Co., and quite a few others realize this...it's going to be the same ole thing for the next few years.
Way too much talent in the halls and bleachers at all these schools.

I don't agree with this point. Star players don't have to be placed because if you're good enough on the field your play will establish you. Stars will make it because of their abilities on the field. I think what you're talking about is players with minimal talent being placed into star positions. I think there have been cases in the past and present of players getting special treatment because of who their mommy or daddy was. However, I think this happened when there was no clear difference at the spot and therefore they were returned a favor. When this happens players just want to quit because they don't wanna fight for a spot. Instead they want to hurt the team and program because of them being selfish.
