Just wondering if anyone else has heard that Pound may not have enough kids to field a team. Like to hear if anyone else has heard or has info on this.

So much for K Y Jelly(joke) getting much talent from Pound when consolidation comes around next year.Quote:

Word is that the numbers at Ervinton will be about normal good enough to have a team and bad enough to make things toughQuote:

You always have to play more freshmen than you want to at Pound. ;)Quote:

Ask me how many will be there clintwood week. We had, at maximum, 13 players show up that week each of the last three years. I called it "greenwave fever."
I don't think they will have to play more than 2 or 3 freshmen though.
I hear that they have a Freshman Running back that many are already comparing to Gabe(sp?) from a few years backQuote:

As I'm one of the worlds worst on remembering, well much of anything anymore, I can't remember the kids name but have heard people discussing him a few years. Kept hearing that he would transfer to Clintwood so kept my ears semi-open. Most well talked about kid as far as work ethic and potential ability I've heard in a bit. Will be interesting to see how he handles the situation as Ervinton. He'll definitely have chances but he'll also be hit and hit and hit again.
Those in Nora have been worried about him leaving for Haysi or Clintwood as well but so far he has been pretty committed to the Rebels.
