1 Lynn Camp
2 Beth Haven
3 Jackson Co.
4 Country Day School
5 Phelps
6 The stony Brooke Mud Hens (If there is such a school)
I am sure coach jones will find them just to add W's to his personal resume. A fan that cares!

Why do you "hate on"Coach Jones and our program so much? Are you a coach or wanna be coach that he wouldn't hire? What was your record when you went to school there? You really don't appear to be someone with a true concern about our program. What can we do as fans and team to help you feel better? Why don't you write out your plan to make us a state powerhouse and let's meet together and take it to Coach Jones. I am sure that he would love to get another "W". Write it out ,post it on here and let's see what the other's think as well. I think that with parents like me and fans like you we can become all that and a bag of chips!

Harlan has been beat by Letcher Central and Breathitt and have beaten some decent teams. Estill has been beaten by Breathitt also but not as bad. Depends on which teams the two bring Friday night IMO. Estill should win but I worry about the previous competition and the 1 week layoff. And to add, you can count on some big runs by Estill being called back, along with a few face mask calls to comfort Harlan.

Are you seriously complaining about the officiating and we haven't played the game yet?

I think it'll be a great hard fought game. Whoever can stop the run should win this game. Estill has those two work horses that I expect to put on quite a show!

if thats the case, then maybe we should complain about a couple of bad calls from last weeks game that our crew did with middlesboro. i still can't get over that one being called back with having 13 players when they broke the huddle!

they needed 13 on the field that night to stop Gilliam.

Correct on the district.
1. Breathitt
2. Powell
3. Estill
4. Magoffin
That's just the way one man see's it.

Just going by last year when Powell played Cawood and also when Fleming played Cawood at Cawood. Films don't lie.

If I can remember alum43 had a record of 8-2 and/or 7-3. No gimmies on those schedules back then, I can assure of that.

No, but teams looking for excuses do.

BB CLAW · 10-20-2008, 08:51 PM

The Black Bears have several running backs that can move it to the end zone and plenty of speed to get it there quick. GO BEARS!!!!!!:Thumbs:

BB CLAW · 10-20-2008, 09:01 PM

Gilliam has been productive all year long, last Friday Night was an explosion and I think he will continue to be productive. That was an awesome show. We may see an awesome show by one of the other running backs before the seasons end, perhaps this Friday Night. Then again, we may see Gilliam explode again. Now either one would be awesome. GO BLACK BEARS!!!!!!:Thumbs:

A very interesting matchup indeed! I am going with Harlan County by 16.

From the game Gilliam had last Friday I'd say they needed more than 13.

Estill takes this one 36 -20.

I agree Neersfan, but this guy must be a has been instead of a wanna be.

I think this guy was a pretty good "has been". We have had several good "has beens" at Estill in the past. I don't see him putting the kids down, just stating the truth about the schedule.

From what i have seen...Estill has the more options to go to at running back. They have three really good backs that can take it into the endzone. Look for this to be a very intense running matchup.

Estill wins big!!

estillalum#43 Wrote:This game will be exactly what I have been saying all year. I know we must play Harlan for the fact it is a district game. However, by us playing Berea and especially Phelps before a big district game will not be enough to have prepared us for Harlan. Just maybe we should have scheduled a Corbin or a Prestonsburg, a tougher competion never hurts a program that is trying to get over the hump. So I sadily say Harlan 36 Estill 20. Does anyone know if coach Niece will be taking the drive to Harlan co. Friday night? A fan that cares.

i don't understand someone doing this, mike jones was a really good has been ru afraid this team might do something no estill team has done?

rubbermeetstheroad · 10-21-2008, 10:56 AM

:redboxer: i would say without reservation that coach jones is the program, he is the powers that be, he carrys it all on his shoulders, with his assistants of course, all the way down to the fourth graders, deal with it and quit complaining about the schedule , it is done have to play it, not everyone agrees with or likes the president, but he is the president, deal with that too.

If they broke the huddle with 13 players, the play should have never happened.

~~Azr3ken~~ · 10-21-2008, 02:19 PM

Estill all the way!
Harlan has no chance.

And I'm sure that if this site existed when"He" played there would former "pretty good has beens" complaining about that schedule. There is no way that you can say that this guy is supportive of the program. What does he do for it other than *****. Be proud of the team now and what direction it is going in and not jealous. We are proud of our past and bring that pride with us every friday night.:dontthink

This guy is putting the whole program down PERIOD!!!!!! If he is an Estill alum he should be supportive no matter the schedule, the kids read these posts also. He just needs to make **** sure if Estill makes a good run into the playoffs to give Coach Jones some **** credit.

BB CLAW · 10-22-2008, 02:44 AM

I expect an all out war, with the Bears coming out on top. There is a 70% chance of cold rain Friday. GO BLACK BEARS!!!!!

F.N.L. · 10-22-2008, 10:07 AM

Estill's weak schedule will show up in this game. Larkey will not let a double wing offense beat him. You will not beat a good team running a gimmick offense. H.C.C just came off of a big win over a good Middlesboro team in which they put over 50 on them. H.C.C. 28 Estill 22. Larkey knows how to stop the running game being in a district with Bell co. for the past several years.
H.C.C. will win this one in a close game.
