FarristownFlyer Wrote:Johnny D because Berea is an independent school district and don't get the funding like other districts. The budget at that school is very tight, and when they would be traveling several hours for a district game and a bus get 8 miles to a gallon...you do the math. Plus when those teams come to Berea that far of a trip not many fans show up which causes low gate money. It's bad business and a team driving that long in a bus is tough. And if they go to the playoffs, why would you want to go that far to probably take a butt whipping. I don't know Coach Coleman really, but everything I hear is positive, it just makes it tough on a team that struggles with funding!

I don't know if it's that, b/c if that was the case, then our Independent school districts across the state would all be struggling....when, it's the opposite in terms of football success.

Some of our best programs of all time and current top programs are Independents.
Highlands, BG, Corbin, Beechwood, Mayfield, Somerset, Glasgow, Owensboro, Danville, Russell, Ashland, Murray...not to mention the likes Raceland, Whitesburg, Pikeville, Elizabethtown, amongst others who have a strong tradition.

Unfortunately for Berea, they are stuck in a county with two county schools that have unbelievable facilities and big schools. I think it's just a case of..."I live in Madison County, where do I want my son to play football?" Berea, unfortunately has been and always will be a distant 3rd.
