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.

Why do you think Jesse left? If Whitaker had been in Powell Co this year, Jesse would still be here. Fact is, if our Defense was better, we would have won 3 or 4 more games. Our Offense wasn't harnessed too often this year by the opposing Defense. It was harnessed by turnovers. We turned it over 44 times. You can't win many games turning the ball over that often. I think Burchett is a great fit for Powell. He is a class act. His offense is very good. We just need to get our D in line.
