Fairview 56 Paintsville 0

Ouch! With the game being held on a Thursday evening, hopefully the extra time before their opening round playoff game will allow the Tigers to make a decent showing.

Emmit Brown · 10-28-2010, 11:09 PM

Paintsville finishes the season 3-7. Another dismal season for the Tigers.

Congrats Fairview!

Gonna be interesting to see what the phs administration is going to do now. They gave JTA 2 years and he won more ball games and now they have gave Kinner 3 years and its been even worse. Kinner has had a lot more talent as well so its going to be interesting to see if they go in a different direction with the program or if they let the weak schedule for next year allow them to claim they "improved". I had no idea why they played the game last night, does anyone know why they did that?

I was told it was agreed upon in the contract so both teams could prepare for their opening round playoff opponent. Pretty good idea for Fairview if that was the reasoning, have an extra day to prepare and get healed up. From the score of this one I'd say their starters were resting comfortably by the end of the first half. Paintsville, on the other hand, could have all season to prepare for their opponent and it still wouldn't help them win. In 6 games they have given up 40+ points and have only scored above 40 points in one game (South Floyd). A lot of running clocks is what it looks like.

Who will P-ville & Fairview match up with in 1st round of playoffs?

Looks like the Tigers have quit this season based on last two games
(108 points opponents too 3 points for Tigers) WOW

Superman20 · 10-29-2010, 07:28 AM

I wonder how many points that they have gave up this season? If the phs administration is satisfied with the results of this season after the way they run JT out of town, then something is wrong. JT definitely would have won more then 3 ball games with this team, and I wont allow a member of the coaching staff that posts on this board to convince me any different. JT and Chirico would have done good with the talent that the team has had this season. I would also say that the talented kids in the school that didn't play football this season probably would have played for them as well.

It's obvious that everyone isn't happy about the football programs current state. Administration,fans,teachers and most important the players. Winning cures alot of things and the tigers will turn it around. When?? Time will tell, but they will win again.

Superman20 · 10-29-2010, 07:50 AM

Theirs a good chance they can win next season with such a watered down non district schedule. Not much competition when your toughest non district opponent is Allen Central. Turned down the good local schools, and might do good in non district play and then get smoked in district play. Only thing that might help is fairview is supposed to lose a lot of talent from what Im hearing. Changes need to be made and the whole town knows it.The only people in paintsville that are happy that changes aren't being made are the JC fans and staff because they have something to laugh about every week. If the administration had any sense at all they would try to bring Chirico in to be the head coach. He has kids in the school system, was a coach for phs for many years, and could probably assemble a top of the line staff around him. This isn't rocket science, its common sense! PHS administration screwed up and they need to correct their error in judgement and make a better choice in what direction their program needs to be in. Paintsville chose kinner over Paul Raines, Chester Mccoy, and John Chapman. PHS hiring kinner over those three is very disturbing considering the success that those three have had. How could you turn down Raines and Chapman for someone with one years coaching experience? They have been apart of state championships and then are turned down for a job for someone that wasn't even close to being as qualified as they were. It's obvious that politics are the only reason why they could justify making that decision and look at where it got them. They went from being a top notch school in this area, to being one of the worst programs. It's just going to get worse because I know several parents in the youth leagues that have already said that they will send their kids somewhere else if a change isn't made. Daymion Belcher (Bo Belcher's son) has already left and has been very successful in the JC school system and I expect more kids to go in that direction.

Your right that winning cures a lot of things, thats for dang sure. I feel bad for the kids because I know this wasn't the type of season they expected to have.

Can anyone on here confirm if it's true that Paintsville turned down the coaches that were mentioned in this post? If so, Im really shocked.

Ram Fan04 · 10-29-2010, 11:43 AM

Is Paintsville going to be any better next season? Raceland is going to get a ALOT better of the next several years. Lots of talent and size coming up. And alot of valuable playing experience has been gained through this year.

And someone asked who Fairview would play in Round 1 I believe the answer to that is Lynn Camp.

mr.charlie hustle · 10-29-2010, 11:45 AM

In one week or there abouts the Paintsville Tiger Football program via the Administration of the school will reach a cross/roads. It is at that time a decision must be made. I believe there are three possible decisions. Decisions are generally most difficult for someone,but have to be made. In this situation #1 would be to change everything up and to start with a new coach in hopes that with a good hire the program could begin to turn buy the time this bunch of 5-6-7 graders arrive. #2 would be to close the football program down or at least go to 8 man football. I am sure a budding S-Program would be most receptive.#3 To do absolutely nothing. This would be a no decision-decision.It too would would be a problem solver in the sense that Attrition would manifest itself in terms of transfers,non participation,lack of state funding due to numbers drop and etc.

This year was expected to be a pretty good year and next year is supposed to be a rebuilding year. I think Paintsville has 11 seniors on this team so next year probably wont be to good of a season for the Tigers

Will the numbers be that low next season if a change isn't made that they would have to close the program or go to 8 man football?

Im hoping that #1 is the option that they are going to make for next season

I predict they do #3
#2 would probadly be the best choice with the last two losses they have suffered to both middle of the pack class A programs

I disagree. They should do #1 if they want to make things right and be fair about things. They gave him more time then JT, and he lost more ball games with more talent then he had. I'd say they won't do anything because of political reasons. Money makes up for losing probably

Was just predicting what would happen which would be status quo.

But i do agree with most of your post, especially your last quote

I know for a fact that Raines didn't apply for the job. Why would he? He was coaching one of the best 1-A schools in the state. I don't know about the other two that were mentioned, the job was never posted to my knowledge. Jason was hired as soon as JTA was dismissed of his coaching duties.

the job was never posted? wow, that really says a lot. I played for Jim Tom and Ive always thought that he is a heck of a coach. I hated to see him leave paintsville, and Im glad he's had a lot of success at pburg. As for Raines, I figured the Raines rumor was a lie, but there are people on here saying it and I won't dispute what they say cause I have no clue.

This game was 7-0 at the end of the first quarter. Fairview returned a punt for a TD to start the 2nd, which should've been called back for an illegal block below the knees and a block in the back. After the punt return, it just knocked the wind out of us.

Gosh Red that's a lot of air. Good luck Red on the game next week. If they could score and keep it under 40 most could live with it. Go back to the record books Red and ask your Juniors if they remember going down to Harlan as 8th graders and beating this same bunch of guys 38-0 in a bowl game. I could probably find you a T-shirt that says Dragon Bowl on it. I think it even says TIGERS on it.

Tiger27 · 10-29-2010, 03:06 PM

So, what happened to the majority of the kids that played on that middle school team that beat Harlan? If they are still in the school system, why aren't they playing football?

I constantly see where blown calls and big plays have caused the Tigers to fold up their tents and go home, but when are the players not going to be at fault for the lack of preparation? A coach must prepare their team to be physically and, most importantly, mentally tough to take the field. Constant thrashings are inexcusable and a direct correlation to the staff.
