Don't get me wrong, the intent of my post wasn't to call out the Harlan fanbase and chastise people. Mama Bear asked a question and I felt I could offer an explanation based on things I have read.

There is no need for people to continue waste time discussing this issue, you and me included. As I said you can't hold any animosity towards Harlan County for playing the hand they are dealt, especially when they weren't the ones trying to deal their own hand.

The Black bear fans have alot of anxiety and it is rightfully so. But thanks to a shady Mercer County situation you an expect backlash. The key is to be humble, be respectful, and let it play out. As mentioned earlier, what really steamed people about Mercer was the cockiness of their fans as they won, the way they ran up the score on their opponents, and an overall perception of lack of sportsmanship. If Harlan's fans can mimic what I am sure that Larkey will instill on the field this will fade in time.


BTW, what year at EKU?

Well said, I think like Mama Bear said I hope our enthusiam doesn't come off as arrogance! I graduated from EKU in 1999.
