We have right at 40 young men coming to weight lifting on avg. There are 5 or 6 of them that are not there everyday. They have to be dedicated like the rest of them are, that come everyday. The 5 or 6 are letting down their teamates. We have 7 to 10 more young men that are training in other sports. Also, of all the young men that lift, 3 or 4 of them are currently in the 7th grade. If they stick with it, we should have a good turn out this fall. Keep working fellers!:wieghts:

I should add to this....I think there is a huge attitude difference in many of the boys, tho. Most of them are doing great with the lifting and getting ready. I am proud of all them who are working hard to improve!! Sorry boys..I didn't mean to single one out...that stuff needs to stop this year!! Go Pirates!:Thumbs:

Have you ever heard of SARCASIM? Come out of the Holler!!!!!! Harlan will NOT be able play with Breathitt, not going to happen. Story will be the same, Breathitt wins it, the other three fight for 2,3, and 4. Powell, not being one of the other three. :popcorn:

Noone said that but you. Powell will be better this year, They will be even better next year. It was never said they would be dist. champs, It was said they would improve from last season. One year at a time, One step at a time coach Whitaker will turn around Powell co. football. He's too good of a coach not to improve it.

6A Harlan central with Larkey as their coach will give Breathitt all they want and then some. Powell has got to stop other teams from running down their throat. Teams that hurt Powell ran the ball all over them. Powell stops the run they can win a couple more games this year. Jesse Rose was one of the state's leaders in tackles and if Powell gets better on defense a 6 win season is very possible.

Scotty was tough at the middle school. He could be a good player if he works hard enough.

No he is not from ESTILL. He was just the coach at POWELL before and is a little uptight with both. LOL!

Uptight with Estill and Powell. :mad: ok:dontthink
Estill went from 0-10 to 9-3 in 4 years. Powell can do the same with the young talent they have coming up. Estill was young when they went 0-10. Every year they got better. Powell only had 6 seniors and started 7 or 8 sophmores and a couple of freshman. Powell's time is coming. A couple more years under coach Whitaker Powell can be having 9-3 seasons. Now why would you be uptight with Powell and Estill?:dontthink

Estill went from 0-10 to 9-3 by changing districts and picking up Phelps, Berea, Knott Co and whoever else they could. They lost to single a Pineville who did not have a winning record. They did not beat or come close to beating a team who was average. Not a team they played other than Breathitt had a winning record. Estill also went from 8-3 to 3-7 in one year losing very few players and returning most of them. They beat Powell I think 77-6 and the next year Powell beat them. So yes Powell can have a winning record, lower your competition, play teams who haven't won in several years, and be happy not making the playoffs or getting beat out very quick if you do. Estill did not beat any quality teams or a team with a winning record this year. I don't have to argue my case, time will tell as do actions. Harlan will not be able to play with Breathitt, it is going to take a little time for the coach to get them together. They are not a Harrodsburg/Mercer team. Whole different talent level!

When Estill went from 8-3 to 3-7 they lost about half of their starters (returned about 4 or 5 starters on offense), and the ones they lost were most of the reason for an 8-3 record. Then the 3-7 year they opened against Belfry, and later had Johnson Central, along with a tough district of Russell, Fleming, and East Carter. Yes they were down some key players, but, had a pretty rough schedule as well. The 0-10 year they had to rely on young players at nearly every position with only 2 starters returning on offense, and 3-4 on defense. And as FNL already mentioned going from 0-10 to 9-3 is direct result of switching districts and playing a much easier schedule.

Thank you for seeing this. They had a much more respectable team, even though they didn't win them all at 3-7, they were in every game except a couple and played quality opponents, that is what makes you better IMO. Why did they drop the quality teams?? I think you know the answer. If the schedule is the same next year, they should be 9-1, but history has shown, when they have a big win season, the next year is not so good. As for Powell, who knows. As one person mentioned, that is why there is always 8 pages of comments.
