His Brother Josh has been big Al's right hand man for a while. I talked to Matt over the weekend, he told me he was not interested in the job at HHS.

Parker would be an absolute terrible hire.

Hearing that mays has been contacted about the position and Terry also from Montgomery county. Word is flinchum from lee is already headed to the hazard roster. Throw in Andrew Terry with the returning roster that hazard has and the other players that Mays can bring in and the rest of the regions playing for 2nd place.
Where do you people get this stuff? Flinchums dad has made it clear several times over the years I've known them that he will never play in Perry County an his exact words to me was if he ever did come up here it would be to play for Shannon Hoskins who was also his coach! Why would Mays leave a school he just took to state I don't see him leaving unless he has to! Some rumors hold about as much water as a holey bucket!

Hot name in this search is Keith Adkins. Look for this deal to get done. Application supposedly submitted yesterday

who is Paelrker?

Interesting deal in hazard 
All the names you hear
Chalk
Adkins 
Etc
Are not from eky
For a place that should be overflowing 
With names from eky
Be hard for a person not from there
To come and recruit and keep the place rolling like it was the last few years

I don’t think flinchum or his dad either one know from day to day where he’s going to play at next if you really want an honest opinion. He’s been to what 6 different schools? I bet when he enrolled at each of those that his dad guaranteed he would stay there too. It would be hard to put a lot of faith into what he says.

It was meant to say Parker Carter.
#37
Would Shannon have interest in this job?
#38
Sounds like the AD is just tossing up Hail Marys at this point. I thought Adkins may be the guy but I heard a couple guys Browning has reached out to and he must not be very happy with the candidates who have applied. Kids are missing out on very important skill work time? Is anybody working with the kids right now?

Who all has applied?
#41
Bring in any the guys named and Hazards going to still be Hazard. Top 5 team every year. I would hire Carter guy. Someone that’s put their time in and wants to be there. Other guys will be drifters. Here today, gone tomorrow.
#42
I agree hire local. Looks like EB and the rest of the administration are interested in winning the press conference rather than doing what’s best long term for the kids of hazard. It’s a common thing with this generation of administration.
#43
Hazard has been hazard 
Cause Al was able to get transfers to hazard 
Let’s not act like Hazard is a talent pool in itself
None of starting from from there besides Higgins / Caudill if you count them and even bench guys were transfers that played minutes
Eversole - Knott
Beverly - Perry
Kincaid - Breathitt / Lee
Combs - Perry 
Ratliff - Knott 
Before them guys same story different names 

Hazard better land someone who does the same or they will not be the hazard of old. 

All that 
And you still lost to the bobcats

Well considering Hazard is a 10 minute drive from about any of those kids homes, they all are pretty much local kids. Kids want to go where they can play. Breathitt had Honeycutt and the best player to probably come out of here ever possibly. Should have beat Hazard. Hazard has tradition in every single sport. Kids from all over go up there to have a shot at winning. Most other programs play politics and parent please and want to win second.
#45
Something I would like to know is what players will actually stay at Hazard.
#46
Someone said Caudill be might go to grc
#47
Heard some sitting HC’s have put in. All the way from the 13th to the 16th regions.

Not 1 kid that got in for Hazard this past year is from Hazard lol. Hazard is the most politic school in the 14th region.
#50
Here is the top 3 according to what i'm hearing . I would call this a reliable source at the baseball game

1. Keith Adkins
2. Robert Amis
3. Keaton Belcher

Mays is still in contact with Hazard but no application.
#51
Mays is not going to Hazard. Belcher would be a good long term hire for them.

Well if Hazard is in Perry County, then they all are from Hazard aren’t they?  Kid from Lee County is the only commuter that I know of. Hazard plays to win folks.  That’s the bottom line.
