What a great story it would be if the Honaker's could play D1 football together. They deserve everything they get because of the work they have put into being great football players. While they inherited their athleticism from their dad, it is their mom who desrves all the credit for raising these boys!!!!

"Your Mama" is not a slur... It's stupid.

Racial references and use of the "N" word are ignorant, hateful, inflammatory, and over the line....Racial slurs aren't and shouldn't accepted in these days and times (just ask Don Imus)

The "true" player plays the game and plays it with respect...The "True" player doesn't need to talk trash to intimidate.

YES any type of offensive talk, behavior is stupid but its everywhere and you have to learn to ignore it or let it get you all I said was which ever one it was was letting it get him and it took him out of the game there were others of color that didn t act that way and we dont know what his problem was everyone just assumed it was racial slurs on the PIKEVILLE side that is.HEY I do wish them lots of luck I just know it takes more than stats to make it in the world and that means learning to choose your battles and like I said what is said in games is just that it is said in games.

I would imagine Coach Haywood would have benched one or more of his players too if he knew what was being said on the field...what is seen from the stands isn't always
a true picture of the entire situation.

Will any coach ever know everything said on the field now come on .If coach Haywood personally heard a player say anything he didn t like I imagine YES he would bench a player.Things will always happen on the field that coaches won t know about ARE we going to need to hire a few BABYSITTERS to run along side certain players to make sure nobody upsets them during the game.

Pikeville held SC to three three and outs on 20 plays of offense. SC scored twice I believe maybe three times. Dials is a **** of a ball player who did look pretty dang good. The Honakers made a lot of good reads and did a lot of other things well. Hey truthful, do you even know what Pikeville's coaches ask of these boys on the field? If you know so much about Pikeville please share with everyone your all knowing knowledge of what Pikeville's LB are supposed to do and who they are supposed to read and what is supposed to happen up front for all of these other things to happen!

You obviously know more about PIkeville than anyone, so you could probably answer your own question better than anyone else could. You "seeing it your way" doesn't constitute these two kids doing it wrong or being over rated. You first have to gain an understanding of what is being asked of these kids before you can form an articulated opinion. PLease learn to understand the situation before throwing a couple of hard working kids to the wolves.

People who evaluate talent for living and therefore know more than anyone one this thread about who is D1 worthy and who isnt. Instead of celebrating these kids these kids some choose to focus on one isolated incident where they lost theyre composure. And one completely MEANINGLESS scrimmage game where they didnt meet Truthfuls "Expert" standards. We should celebrate every athelete that comes out of here and has the oppurtunity to play college footbal on the highest of levels.

I am in now way condoning saying things like this at all, but please don't make Pikeville out to be the victim in this. Since the opening of the game last season it was one particular Panther player and one particular Panther coach that were completely showing a lack of sportsmanship that probably had a direct result in some of the things said. I was shocked to see some of the excessive taunting that was going on from a normally class program such as Pikeville.

In no way, shape, or form does this make it alright for people to make comments like those mentioned IF in fact it did happen. But, from my perspective on that night there certainly weren't any INNOCENT victims wearing Maroon. What was a shame is that the game last year was truly one of the better Pikeville/Belfry matchups in recent years, but afterwards and still to this point in time, we still have to hear about the things mentione din this thread.

And for the record, I don't feel as if the honakers are "overrated" at all. From an athletic ability standpoint, I don't think you will find two more gifted players in Eastern Kentucky, for a mix of speed, strength, and natural football ability.

This is for you Fox I would never defend racial slurs if I HEARD them but you can not just believe that it happened because this one or that one said it did .This is the last time I plan to address this post as most of you know our mamas told us that sticks and stones may break your bones but WORDS would never harm you .I do work with kids everyday and in my case I see overweight people take lots of slurs and most go on and some don t.ALL I was trying to say was that a persons conduct says more for them than anything if you do not know that person. I do not know what was said either way I did not bring up this topic someone else on here did I just mentioned the conduct displayed by one of the Honakers I don t think the brother acted that way and he was on the field as weell.He is to be commended for being better. What if some scouts were in the stands they would have came out with the same oppinion as me because they to woud think would this player be acting like this at the next level. I do wish them and any player good enough to play a D! D@ or whatever level the best and YOU doNOT know my race and I may KNOW alotabout ignoring WORDS because thats all they ars. There are more things to concern yourself with about students who don tget enough to eat after they leave school for the day. those little ones and teens who come to school with poor hygeine because they do not have water in the home and oh the really sad ones that are physically and often sexually abused by those that are suppose to be taking care of them so excuse me if I get offended because someone gets their feelins hurt especially a highschooler for name calling HONAKERS GOOD LUCK AND TUNE OUT THE BAD COMMENTS .

Scrimages, especially to the Pikeville coaches, are glorified practices. The SV scrimage was the first opportunity for Pikeville to put 11 people out going against another 11 people because of their injuries.
Pikeville's coaches ran as many different things they could so that they could watch the film and work on the plethera of mistakes the made. Yes they wanted to make a good showing, but scoring the most and "winning" was not very high on their to do lists

According to Coach Phillip Haywood and Hillard Howard, two of eastern Kentucky's best, scrimmages are for seeing how your team stacks up against different competition and is a glorified practice....meaningless as far as rankings and "showcases" go.

This thread is about player rankings not any particular teams scrimmage games...please start another thread if it's focus is going to be scrimmages.

Second, I'm sure if someone from your school was being recoginzed on a national level as one of the best at what they do in the country you would want to congratulate them and wouldnt want people downing them. Stop hatin on these guys and man up and congratulate them.

YOU are so inmature HATE is a very ugly word too .I did CON. them if you would bother to read to the end of my previous post.

I didn't say that you hated them, but that people on here have been dogging them because they don't feel that they are to be in the top 110. But all the guys at ESPN have no clue what they are talking about anyway according to a lot of guys on here.

Scrimages, especially to the Pikeville coaches, are glorified practices. The SV scrimage was the first opportunity for Pikeville to put 11 people out going against another 11 people because of their injuries.
Pikeville's coaches ran as many different things they could so that they could watch the film and work on the plethera of mistakes the made. Yes they wanted to make a good showing, but scoring the most and "winning" was not very high on their to do lists

Well it was prabably more important to the SC coaches and players to put 11 players out there to see what they could and could not do .I think it was their first opportunity to meet 11 others players for the upcoming season also .I hope winning and scoring remains at the bottom of their list for the remainder of the year then the rest of their opponents can just slide by when they play them O K.

your words hatin not mine be careful what you say its in writing hatin again your word
What in the world are you trying to say? I thought that grammar, spelling, and punctuation were monitored? In your post #53 you said you that would be your last post addressing this issue. Yet you had 6 of the next 12 posts. Doesn't make any sense to us educated people. Also, bringing up these kids who can't afford to eat and are abused is, in my opinion, a sorry attempt to guilt trip people into thinking you are all peaches and cream. When in fact you seem to me to have a "Hitler complex". In layman's terms that means that you pretty much hate everybody who isn't exactly like you.
It doesn't matter what anybody says about these kids, especially ones that don't know them. I have known them almost all of their lives and if someone wants to know something about them ask someone who knows. Do not however, listen to these slanderous comments trying to cut down high school kids who is trying to better himself by going to college and getting it paid for by playing the game they love. They are good kids who have been through a lot in their day. I am very fortunate to have been given the opportunity to watch them play the game that I too love. Congratulations to these young men and best of luck on all of your endeavors. And don't listen to these jealous people on here.

Congrats Honakers! I have been around Pikeville football a long time and this is a great honor for any player! Don't let it go to your heads and keep working your way up that list. Don't worry about all the negative stuff on here. Go out and prove all these people wrong this year. Good luck to Coach Jackson, and the panthers this year!
