How does Pburgs schedule look this year? How are the teams they’re playing looking?

@ Leslie Co - Eagles return QB Collett, get a 1000+ yd receiver from Perry Co, but graduate leading receiver, rusher, best defensive players, and some linemen. 

East Ridge (PCB) - Warriors lost their top 4 or 5 players. They’ll be young.

Paintsville - Tigers will be really young. Lost what would’ve been their running back and best defensive player returning to Martin Co. Still have AJ Johnson and Anderson Lauffer. Former Pburg OC Derek Newsome assists at Paintsville now. 

at Lewis Co - Lewis lost their QB to Raceland. I believe leading receiver is still there also. New HC. 

Pike Central - New HC, returning basically their whole team.

Betsy Layne - They’ll likely have 2 or 3 former Blackcats on the roster. They lost a lot to graduation, but have filled holes from transfers and they return Parsons and Mccutcheon. Bobcats will be good. 

Martin Co - Lose a lot of linemen and stable of running backs. QB moved to SC. Maynard will be the new signal caller. Lafferty from Paintsville will be new RB for Cards. 

OPEN

Floyd Central - They lose Peterson, Buck, and Johnson. Return the bulk of their line. Still have Shelton and Martin. Will use the younger Buck like they used his older brother.

at Knott Central - Return most of their team. #20 for them is a stud. They’ll be better than they were last season. 

at Breathitt Co - Lost their QB, Tincher, and some other key pieces, but return most of their team. They’ll be tough.

Sounds like the floor is 3-7 and ceiling is 7-3.

In a past post I said the ceiling would be 8-2 and the floor being 4-6. With how everything has shaken out involving players transferring, coaching staff, and what I have been hearing over the past couple of days I would now change the ceiling to 6-4, and the floor being 3-7. 

Loses:
Breathitt, Martin, and Betsy Layne

Not favored, but could win:
Pike Central
Floyd Central

Toss up:
Leslie County

Favored, but could lose:
Lewis County
Paintsville

Wins:
Knott County
East Ridge

I heard from someone in town that Coach Hager is on vacation. How can we believe in what the coach is building if he’s packing up and leaving town when there’s work to be done.

I’m a troll because the head football coach of one of the most prestigious jobs in high school football doesn’t even care enough to schedule vacation during dead period. Right.

Prestigious!?  Its a terrible job. Dropping enrollment numbers and surrounded by programs on the up makes it a terrible spot to coach. Combine that with some crazy politics. Not just the parent politics but a job where actual politicians are inserting themselves into the coaches job. But I do agree. Football coaches schedule vacation during dead period. Thats what its for.

There’s not much positive to say when the head coach is taking vacation time and robbing the youth of our town of valuable practice time. 

It’s a shame for the kids this is the best we could do. There’s legitimate talent at the skill positions

It's not a big deal.

Prestonsburg still had practice Monday-Thursday. They lift weights, conditioned, and then they split up and linemen did linemen drills and skill guys done skill drills. Same thing they've basically been doing all spring/summer thus far. No beat was missed.

It’s a big deal. The head coach should be at every thing baring a family emergency. 

Shows a lack of leadership and maturity.

i really appreciate that you feel like you have to defend the program on here like this but ignoring red flags isn’t going to help the program out.

Then they all believe someone else is truly in charge.

John DeRossett missed one practice and it was for his Aunts funeral. We’ve not made it past dead period of Wes Hagers tenure and he’s skipping a week.

If Coach Wesley did miss practice to go on vacation, that is absolutely a horrible look regardless if the team didn't  miss a beat without him.  That shows poor leadership.  How can the players respect him and be expected to sacrifice for the team when the head coach won't do the same.  He should be leading by example.  I am liking this hire more and more.

Back in the day, I was on my school's site-base-decision-making-council.  I had rented a cabin in the Smokies for a week.  I had paid well over a $1,500 for the reservation.  Just before my family and I were to leave for our vacation, the school called a special site-base-council meeting that was to be held right in the middle of week I had rented the cabin.  I chosen to stay home and attend the meeting.  My family went on vacation without me.  Maybe I made a poor decision, but sometimes you have to sacrifice.

Exactly. When you take a LEADERSHIP role you have to sacrifice. 

he’s lost all ability to get on to a player about practice attendance when they start back after the dead period. It’s SAD.

I am not trolling, and I don't think this is off topic because it concerns Pburg football in 2024 and their first year coach, but my question is this. How can anyone defend a first year coach taking a week off from practice to go on vacation while expecting his players to show up for the practices that he is missing? I can not comprehend how this is acceptable, and I can not comprehend how anyone could possible defend that decision If he did in fact do this, I find it mind blowing.

Official practice has not even began and is not allowed until mid July. I think other programs have assistants running off season conditioning drills some as well. I don’t think you can technically call it practice until the dead period is over. You can have “voluntary” workouts but it’s not supposed to be a practice. I don’t see a big issue out of it. Now if the coach starts missing practices when they can start wearing equipment that’s an issue but not now. It’s been a few years but I don’t think Coach Haywood attended every single off season workout when my son was a part of the team. It’s not something I’d be concerned over

Official practice has not even began and is not allowed until mid July. I think other programs have assistants running off season conditioning drills some as well. I don’t think you can technically call it practice until the dead period is over. You can have “voluntary” workouts but it’s not supposed to be a practice. I don’t see a big issue out of it. Now if the coach starts missing practices when they can start wearing equipment that’s an issue but not now. It’s been a few years but I don’t think Coach Haywood attended every single off season workout when my son was a part of the team. It’s not something I’d be concerned over
There’s a difference when you’ve had the same staff in place for over a decade and when you’re a first year head coach trying to turn around a program that’s struggling. Coach Haywood is afforded luxuries that many other coaches aren’t due to his long history of success.

New turf field is nearly complete. I might be a little biased, but that's one of the best looking fields in the state.

Did ya ever get confirmation that Hager went on vacation, or is it still just hearsay? Lol 

Some of y’all on here dragging this young guy thorough the mud and ya dont even know if he actually went on vacation or not.
