How's it looking for the Pirates? Do you think last year's first ever winning season will be their last? I hear alot of Powell countians aren't too thrilled with some of the changes. I hear the kids aint real happy with some of the new coaches. Just what's being said around Stanton.

The team actually looks pretty good in the 7on7 games both offensivly and defensivly. Could use work in the passing game youg inexperienced QB. But the RBs are going to be led by brewer hardy watkins and taulbee. The WR are also young but talented with most of them able to catch most everything. But coach burchett is a great coach noone wants to give him a chance, he is a great guy also. Whitaker will be missed but the pirates will do fine without him as long as everyone puts effort into it.

My cousin is one of the new coaches and I know that Powell Co. is very lucky to have him.
He knows the game and played under Coach Philip Haywood at Belfry for 4 years.
What more would parents and fans want in a Coach than one coming from a tradition rich program like Belfry?
I say go Pirates!
Belfry and Powell....irateSho

Powell will finsh third agian this year in the district behind Estill and Breathitt. Powell will ofcourse have a winning season with the teams that they play. I hope they do great this year, but lets be realistic, Powell isnt a football powerhouse, never was, never will be.

Powell will finish 4th being in a 4 team district. Breathitt, Estill, Magoffin, Powell in that order. It appears the pirates will be starting all over once again, new coach, new system, new coaching staff once again. Same story, different day. Powell is fortunate to be in a 4 team district.

I disagree with that. Because the offense we have this year is better than last years by far. We will beat estill and magoffin by far.

yea ok. you mean like last year when you all sent us a Dozen Roses with a sympathy card saying you all were gonna kick our A**, and who was it that got beat by 30? (58-28) thats right it was Powell County and who was it that got there A**** kicked in that fight at 82 food mart? thats right it was Powell County you all even had us out numbered 20-5 and we still kicked your all's a****. you all might had a chance to beat us if Jesse Rose hadnt transfered.
:lmao: :please:

Not real familiar with Estill or Powell, Everyone knows about Breathitt, But alot of people are saying Magoffin Co. will be very good this year. The gave Johnson Central fits in passing league this year, put it all over Matwan W.V., and Willamson W.V., strugeled against a very talented Betsy Layne group(but MC had 7 kids out) and outplayed Paintsville(with 7 out). Former U.K. player Grayson Smith has installed the true spread with multiple weapons to go to. Curious to see how they do against my Tigers this year!!!
07-15-2009, 12:36 PM
Oh! I did not know that. Good information to know. Are you at Morgan Co. or are you back at Powell?

I didn't know Smith had installed the "true" spread. In that case, Powell will beat Magoffin.

They couldn't beat you even if Whitaker and Rose had stayed.

Sorry, but i think 7 on 7 makes some teams feel better than they are. 7 on 7 are good for secondary and LB's to practice there steps and drops and offense to get down routes. BUT when you factor in the whole team with the pressure of line and add the run game its a differnt story.

I played for coach Burchett a few years back and he is a great coach and a good man. He has worked as an assistant coach in some of the best programs in Eastern Kentucky (P-burg under Haywood, Lawrence during their heyday under Williams, and most recently Johnson Central under Matney).
He had one head coaching job in the past that was a mess because of politics. He left after one year.
He swore he would never head coach again. I have heard he has had countless offers over the years and turned down schools with a much better program than Powell.
If players are complaining, it's because they are having to work harder than ever before, but I know they are being treated with respect.
My opinion, Powells best days may have just begun
