[neverwas]

First off Powell never had anything that even resembled a tradition in football. Program "never" had a winning season "ever" in over 20+ years until Whitaker's last year. No team on your schedule has been worse than Powell year in and out. Check the win/loss ratios vs. any team on your shcedule against teams Powell has played consistantly. Dominate? Powell didn't win a game for years at one point. Powell has had 1 winning season ever, So I wouldn't speak of "most" if I were you. All these other teams( as you call most) have had more success than Powell co. Now wait a minute, I'm sure Burchett knows football, he's been around some good teams and coaches so I'm sure the man knows his stuff but you say look at his past teams??? I thought Matney coached Johnson Centra? I thought Williams coached Lawrence? I thought Burchett was the line coach. Not saying the man can't coach or don't know, I'm sure he does but you can't say "look what he done", No I in team and he didn't call the shots. They did win Whitaker's last year but they were obviously not capable the 21 years or so before that. The table is turning?? please explain. How? They won 6 games last year and 2 games this year. Whitaker would have won 7 or 8 games this year.

I doubt Whitaker could have won 7 or 8 games. He may have been able to keep Flinchum and Faulkner, but who knows. Remember, he would not have had Jesse Rose if he had stayed since his father got the good job in Letcher County. Without Jesse it would have been difficult to win the 7 or 8 games.
