[EKY Hoops]

Pikeville still had some great coaches this year,  but just wanted to also mention they lost a great assistant coach last year in Coach Yogi Davis who is the head coach at Frankfort now. He was the D-line coach and special teams coordinator.  The kids loved him and he was a pretty substantial loss for the program too. In my opinion. He did ALOT.

And that dude has the best freaking sports name ever….you gotta be a awesome dude to wear that around haha

Something nobody talked about so far is the schedule Pikeville played. Was it too much for them to handle. Not saying the kids weren’t tough enough physically but maybe mentally it took a toll on some of them. Idk…just another thought

Not in the way you would think. The team as a whole never lost confidence in my opinion. I actually began to worry something was off with this team when they lost to Corbin and JC the first 2 games, and there seemed to be no disappointment or concern. The only thing I kept hearing was "We should still win 1A, nobody in 1A is as good as Corbin or JC". The lack of disappointment from the team and those close to the program after losing those winnable games was a huge red flag to me.
