The enthusiasm in the Pikeville community is down. I have talked to a bunch of people that don't even know who we play this week. Of those who do know, they aren't even going to watch the game, they are going to "socialize". This is pathetic. Pikeville/Belfry has been on my mind since the beginning of the season. Past years everyone was hyped for the game, plans for what would be done the week of school were completed weeks earlier. Now it is just going like a normal week. Until there is enthusiasm like there once was Pikeville football will not be the same. I hope Coach Copley and staff can get the programs back to the way it was, but it will also require the help of the community to back the program. GO PANTHERS!
