I don't place the sole blame on Kinner, I don't exactly agree with his coaching schemes over the past few years, but I will say that the Paintsville school system as a whole just has an extremely low amount of athletes in it. Honestly, and this may sound harsh, but right now this is as little of athletic talent that I have seen in this school the past 15 years. If you sit down and go position by position, how many of the people that PHS is playing would honestly start at other Class A schools that have had success recently? I would seriously say that only 1 or 2 players would see significant time if they were at any other place than Paintsville. I'm not picking on them or anything like that, but this is just my opinion. I've seen every football team Paintsville has put on the field since probably 1996 and I feel like I'm a fairly good judge of talent when it comes to sports, and the way I see it we just don't have those tough hard-nosed type of football players that are required to be successful. I hate to see this program fall to the level that they are at now, and I really hope that things turn around for them.

One Linebacker and one Running back would be all that could start at any other program. There is alot of talent coming up and times will get better but it will take at least one more year.
