Well I am no fan of Bell County for many reasons, for one it amazes me how kids from between Middlesboro and Pineville can be so much better than kids from Pineville and Middlesboro every season. Coaching...nah, feeder system...nah. Recruiting...well thats another topic. Hey whatever works. Im a realist and Middlesboro has no chance to win this game in any way shape or form. The Bell County allstar team would wax Pineville and Middlesboro combined.

Bell 60 70 plus
Boro 6

RECRUITING? you've gotta be kiddin' me. Yes, we recruit with our entire 30-40 man roster, 30-40 man roster of kids that has been together from grade school up. got ya. you hit the nail on the head. Coaching, yes! Dudley Hilton is and was one of the best coaches in the state of KY, he built these seniors you're seeing this year up. As he did every year, and Wayne Mills is a Hilton guy who went to an abysmal Knox Central team and turned them into a force in the mountains. Up until the past 3-4 years, Bell has NEVER had the athletes that Middlesboro had, we we're just coached up way better. Feeder System, yes! when a group of kids play in the same system with the same boys for years and have an understanding of their job on the field, and know the do's and dont's of the team, as the middle school team is ran nearly spot on with the high school bunch, they're bound to see some success. And even if a few kids in the Pineville/Middlesboro areas do switch to bell, can you blame them? winning more than 3 games a year has to be a plus when you work your hind end off for better results. :gtfo:
