Hazard will be looking to rebound off a 10-3 season as where the bulldogs fell short to a superior Williamsburg team.

Team losses to graduation
Brandon Jones
Houston Smith
Hilton Dixon
Anthony Asher
Jordan Childers
Jack Davis
Trey Higgins
Juwan Hill
Caleb Holcomb
Zack Hoskins
Brandon Miller
Jalen Olinger


Hazard returns
Tanner Morgan
Cole Ratliff
Jacob Blanton
Jimmy Perkins
Cade Fletcher
Dan Turner
Jason Johnson
Braxton Whitaker
Connor Whitaker

They also return some decent lineman as well and get a pretty good 8th grade class coming up. What's your thoughts?

[plantmanky]

Ive been told Tanner Morgan will not be back at Hazard. Anyone?

[64SUR]

Hazard has always been able to reload. Tanner would be a big lost if he leaves I hope he stays. :popcorn:

[Scotty_Bronson]

Where is he supposedly headed?

[OLDBALLCOACH]

Williamsburg........just kidding! Wondered how many eyebrows went up!

[mysonis55]

Yall let me down this year. You were supposed to dethrone the honey bees. It's hard for me to forgive that one.

[E's Army]

Hazard as always will be well coached and athletic. Losing a bunch of good players but Hazard always seems to reload. District will be very tough with Pikeville moving in.

[pjdoug]

I was thinking it might come down to Hazard vs Raceland next year,but Hazard seems to be losing a lot too.is it true that their quarterback is transferring?

that wouldnt surprise me :biglmao:

Ive been told Tanner Morgan will not be back at Hazard. Anyone?

This is the information that we have been told. While nothing can ever be 100% I'd say the source is 95% reliable. The Ryle community has been told that the Morgans are moving back to the area as soon as Thanksgiving break or Christmas break. Sorry Hazard, Tanners a great kid. LOL, he was ours first, we have dibbs. Ryle just got a lot better.

[E's Army]

A lot of schools would throw a party after a 10-3 season. Hazard is in mourning. The expectations are high in Hazard. If Morgan comes back they will be very good.

It will suck to lose a QB like tanner.. Hazard will just have to try to replace him.. My question is does Hazard start the Blair kid next year?

[bac2369]

Where is all the other hazard peeps at??

[Scotty_Bronson]

Losing Morgan on top of all the senior losses could be tough on Hazard especially with their district and region becoming tougher with the addition of Pikeville. They are well coached and rarely have issues with numbers, so I expect them to be in the mix for atleast the region when all is said and done.

[bac2369]

Only thing I have heard is 6th-8th has plenty of talent coming up and Hazards future looks bright..

[bac2369]

Heard Hazard schedule may look like this next year..

Pineville
Fairview
Letcher
Somerset
Prestonsburg
Pikeville
Jenkins
South Floyd
Phelps
Breathitt Co

Not to shabby.

[Scotty_Bronson]

I like the Breathitt game. Fairview is a queation mark. As is Prestonsburg. The Eagles are going to be very experienced in the skill positions, but will imo, still have no sign of a running game outside of a scrambling Alex Roy, and Dixon will pin his DE and OLB ears back and rush roy like crazy. I think Hazard goes into the playoffs with a 8-2/9-1 record possible losses to Prestonsburg and Breathitt. Who would step in under center of Morgan leaves?

That would be an excellent question. The kid coming up from 8th grade is pretty dang good but getting adjusted to high school speed will take a few games.

Check some of his highlights out on Hudl and Youtube. Baliey Blair.. Not sure if that's how he spells his name...

[bac2369]

Here the Hudl video for the Blair kid...

[StarLord]

Blair is a nice player but Middle School success does not equal High School success. Hazard loses a ton so lets wait and see how it plays out. They seem to always find an addition or two during the offseason.

Seems to throw a pretty good ball and has more mobility than Morgan. Reminds me a little bit of, and Tyler Olinger? Not in the fact that he is as good RIGHT NOW, but he has potential to be. Dual threat QB, atheletic, good arm, but has seems to have good skikk guys around him, that make him look even better. Is there an Olinger in the ranks, or has the name finally left the halls of Hazard High? Seema like theres been an Olinger there for the last 20 years lol

[Blue-N-Gold]

Does anyone think Cole Ratliff may take over as QB?

[bac2369]

It's very possible... I think he gives another big time target in the passing game..

[Bulldogs4Ever]

Bailey Blair will run the show next season I think.

[Barnacleboy]

That youngin' Cole Ratcliff can throw bombs my friends..BOMBS! I expect nothing less than a region championship trophy from the dawgs. :1:

[Scotty_Bronson]

Im just hoping to finally see a Raceland/Hazard match up. Been wanting to since we got conservative and pinned ourselves in a corner LCA broke our hearts in 2008.

[bac2369]

^ I agree still wanting to see that match up..

[OLD MAN LOGAN]

So is Cole Ratliff the front runner for the QB position?

[Bringitonhome]

How long has Dixon coached Hazard? He seems to be running it well
