If anyone knows any of the questionable dates, I will update this post. Thanks.

You are correct on JJK-Haysi, but I'm not sure which date it is.

The Clintwood open week is usually the 10-5 week. I hope it still is.

Add Harlan, KY (8/31), Cawood, KY (9/14), and Haysi (11/9) to Lee High's schedule.

The schedule is up on the school's website now.

Are those three games on the road?

Sorry about that, yeah all three are away.

Well, I should get to see 2 PV games. I should definitely be able to watch the Lee High game. I don't have to be back at Berea until a few days after that. The Thomas Walker game, I have reading period and I have the Monday and Tuesday after that Friday off, so I'll be there.

I wish Thomas Walker and Richlands would trade Fridays or Lee High and Richlands would trade Fridays. That way I could watch the usual heated game between PV and Richlands.

the JJK-Haysi game is on 11/2

Thanks.

The road looks rough for GC. That's the latest we've played Lee High before. Playing Richlands and Tazewell back to back to start the season........lawd have mercy.

The Haysi Schedule is a mess (They knew that they would have problems with the number of OOS teams that they play)

I Hope BGJ or some one else from there can fill us in on any schedule update from over there

If Coeburn keeps improving over last year as they did, I could see them going 8-2 at best, 5-5 at worst. I think they'll fall for almost sure against Clintwood & Burton, but every other game on the schedule is winnable.

Rye Cove, Castlewood, and St. Paul will be the toughest district games, IMO. However 2 of 3 of those are at home. The 4 away games on their schedule aren't major trips either: Kelly, Burton, TS, and Castlewood.

Am I the only one who thinks it's possible that Coeburn wins the Cumberland next year and makes the playoffs?

For Hurley...
9/28: @ Williamson, WV
10/12: @ Tug Valley, WV

Oh I think that they have a shot BUT RC will still be the measureing stick game for them.

I am pulling for both Coeburn and GC to win there districts next season

Speaking of which, someone posted that Burrhead Nixon was hurt the other day in a baseball game. Is he back, and if so, is the injury major?

I don't know. SP returns quite a few, but loses a good WR. Their line is pretty good size, but was pretty young last year.

RC won't be very big I don't believe this year. They will be young again to a degree, but should have more quickness overall this year. I don't know if their QB is going to play this year or not though. RC should be back in better shape in the coming years though. They had some good 8th graders and freshman from what I heard, and have one of the largest 7th grade classes in a long time right now.

Also, getting TJ Barnette back will be a huge help. He was leading them in rushing last year as a sophomore until a nasty injury against Haysi sidelined him the rest of the season.

How dare you put kids names on the forum!!!!!!!

I was not sure what SP had returning. Ervinton lost a ton and Castlewood if I remember correctly has alot of holes to fill as well.

When you have been as successfull as RC has been over time then the target is hard to get off your back

Whats sad is, nobody is putting players names...

I can see it now..

That was a great game tonight. Good player broke off a 56 yard run, a 38 yard touchdown where he reversed field twice. Other player threw the ball really well, completing 6 passes for 130 yards with tall player catching 4 of them for 2 touchdowns. Kind of was concerned when potentially hurt player got hurt on that late hit by big player who hits hard. Thankfully I think only thing hurt was (injury prevented from being discussed by HIPAA).

I agree. It's getting sad.

SP was pretty young. Beat Ervinton, but lost to CW and RC. Like you said, Ervinton lost a lot. CW lost quite a few, but they have some talent returning if I am not mistaken. Scammell done a very nice job with them last year, and maybe some continuity will help considering the overturn at Castlewood in football coaches.

RC also lost another key coach IMO. He is just wanting to get away from coaching to spend time with his family, but will be greatly missed. I wonder what RC's defense will be like without him this coming season.

Knowing that Ervinton lost a lot, and their coach (who while I think he was sometimes overwhelmed seemed like a nice guy and got the kids to play hard for him), I wonder how they handle a downward tick.

Coeburn goes 6-4 or 5-5

All I have heard at this point would be as follows:

Clintwood
Grundy
Twin Valley
Honaker
Ervinton
Hurley
JJ Kelly
Lee High

Still looking for two games...not sure why Rye Cove is not on the schedule yet. Other rumored possibilities include Tazewell and some Pike County school...maybe Pike Central or Paintsville? They played two out of state games last year(LCC & Betsy Layne)...both of which dropped Haysi for this year to my understanding. So they will probably only be playing one out of state game in '07, if any at all.

Thanks for the update I hope Haysi is able to fill out the rest of there scedule soon

Rye Cove picked up Sullivan North instead this season. Shorter trip, possibly a bigger gate, and a good points opportunity since North should be considered D3 in VA. That is the reasons I suspect RC dropped Haysi at least.

Haysi had the opportunity to play PV before PV picked up Thomas Walker at the last minute...may turn into a big ol road trip for haysi

I hadn't thought about that, but I knew Phil was trying to find someone. I guess he did extend the opportunity to Haysi.

Yeah right...lol...from all the grumbling when TW signed on, there was word that Haysi was offered...Look at Haysi's schedule...how bad do you think they want to play high caliber teams...all I see on there is Clintwood and Honaker.

Haysi will never play the big dogs of the LPD except their county foes, never have never will. It has to be a have to case, in the playoffs. Then when they have their best team in a decade and an LPD School has an avg team, you'd think they'd won the SuperBowl when they win. I have no respect for Haysi's football program at all, maybe if they'd beef up the ol schedule they could advance farther in the playoffs.

Would be funny if my Injuns bite 'em on the arse (figure we have a shot)

Haysi is normally big up front, the years when they advance out of the Region is when they are just so much bigger than everyone else. Could make it hard on Wise to overcome the size difference, (I have no clue if this is the case this year or not, I'm just going on past years).

Who exactly do you consider to be the "big dogs" of the LPD? To date the only current LPD team that Haysi hasn't had on their regular season schedule since 1990 is Appalachia. Had a really good and competitive series with Burton up until a year or two ago and I wish they were still playing. I would like to see Appy on the schedule but that is a long trip and it just makes more sense to play LPD teams like Clintwood, Pound, Kelly and Burton from a travel standpoint.

I like to see an occasional series with PV but usually PV doesn't like to play other division 2 schools that they will likely meet in the playoffs. Who are year in year out the most likely PV playoff opponents? Haysi or Honaker. PV may have called Haysi I don't know but I doubt it. Then again even when two teams want to play each other you still have to have a common date possible to make it a reality.

I hope BGJ can tell us a little of what to expect from the Tigers

IMHO they should be down next year after loseing several linemen and there QB

That being said I have been burned befor buy what I thought would be a "Down" Haysi club LOL

WHat they will have is probably the best FB in the reagion a BIG TE with soft hands and a good recever that can catch and assumeing that #7 moves to QB they will have one of there better atholets there as well as one of the top Kickers in the area

Go back and look Haysi's schedules for the most part they are weak, and there is no way to dispute that.

Who is there FB?

Haysi has played PV twice in the regular season in the past 20-25 years...in 90 they were blasted and in 91 they beat a weak PV team that had lost 17 starters. And, if you look at the playoff teams from the past 10-15 years, PV has regularly scheduled most of not all of 'em barring Haysi and Honaker. Now wonder why they would schedule nearly all of the regular playoff teams barring just 2 ? The reason the most likely opponents for PV in the playoffs is Haysi is because of that weakass district they play in. The winner of the Haysi-Honaker game has to get in. PV has always played GC...when has Haysi or Honaker barring the playoffs? Clintwood, Burton, and Appy are district games for PV. Who does Haysi play to compare? Nobody. The only reason they schedule Clintwood is because it is a rivalry. And Appy is closer to Haysi than PV is. If they are going to schedule Burton (which they haven't since Burton climbed to be one of the best teams in the LPD) why not drive 8 more miles to play Appy ? With the shuffling of the schedule in the LPD due to the loss of Coeburn and GC as district games, Haysi could have scheduled about anyone from the LPD this year and next at least. Haysi needs some stronger games cuz they have never beat a top notch LPD team. Yeah, they have won a few games vs the LPD in the playoffs...but they have never beat a team capable of appearing in a state finals game. It may hurt, but the truth's the truth.

How do you all think the LPD teams will do this year???

PV, Burton, Appy, and Clintwood will all be good..Kelly and Pound will be improved as well. Looks to be one of the better years top to bottom in the district.

What did Appy lose? I have been thinking they will be good, but also had some reservations about them. I know they have had some unfortunate losses also.
