We're a few close friends that love to talk sports, pop culture and life in the hills of eastern Kentucky. We're always talking about high school sports in Kentucky, a state that cherishes basketball, but loves football. We also bleed blue, showing that we're University of Kentucky Wildcat fans. We're also long suffering Cincinnati Reds baseball fanatics (except Jeremy, but he's coming around.) Join Jamey Johnson, Byron Hall, Jeremy Hall and Josh McKinney each week for the Sounds Off on Sports Podcast from the WMDJ FM 100.1 radio studios in Martin, Kentucky.
Kentucky men's basketball coach Mark Pope gave Cat fans something they've been dreaming of for nearly a decade and that was winning a relevant game on a national stage with a modern style of basketball complete with in-game adjustments as the Wildcats defeated Duke in the Champions Classic. On a local level, Floyd Central football coach Shawn Hager announces he is stepping away from the sidelines. Betsy Layne and Prestonsburg prepare for a rematch in the second round of the KHSAA state football playoffs this Friday.
We were invited to attend Betsy Layne High School media day for the girls' basketball program and we were more than happy to come since free pizza was involved! Head coach Kory Thacker enters his third season leading the Lady Cats as they look to take the next step in building back the proud winning tradition of Betsy Layne basketball. We also spoke to some players about their expectations.
Although you can't see them on the podcast version, the guys all dressed the part for Halloween this week. World Series has been entertaining... Has Stoops just lost his passion for Kentucky football? UK basketball ready for the regular season. High School Football regular season ends this Friday... Will Prestonsburg run their record to (10-0)?
It's the podcast you follow and love to watch or listen to, while never admitting you do! We love you anyway. We find out that everyone has it in for Betsy Layne athletics apparently. Prestonsburg sees perfection in sight, yet can't fall for a trap game on the road this Friday in Hindman. Floyd Central will honor 13 seniors in what's been a tough season of football. Worst World Series ever coming? Will you watch the NBA now that Reed is playing? Yes, your smartphone is listening to you and knows what you and your friends enjoy - we have proof!
The gang returns full of nostalgia about the return of Rick Pitino to Kentucky Basketball's Big Blue Madness event, while Jamey has a different take on why Coach P was in Lexington. Mark Stoops and the Wildcats stump their toe against Vandy on self-inflicted penalties. High School Football is full-long into district play with a rivalry game this week between father and son as Floyd Central and Prestonsburg collide in "The Hager Bowl".
There's a little bit of Pete in all of us... As Reds baseball fans, Pete Rose was ours; loved and accepted no matter what. The guys also dive into the MLB baseball postseason and recap last week's rivalry game between Betsy Layne and Prestonsburg. District football begins this weekend, how will the Bobcats, Blackcats and Floyd Central Jaguars fair?
You play under those Friday Night Lights to celebrate those Alumni Nights down the road. Floyd Central High School will host Alumni Night as players from old Wheelwright, Allen Central and South Floyd High Schools will be in attendance. The Jaguars will host Betsy Layne in what our WMDJ sports guys call, "The 680 Series". Prestonsburg rolls undefeated for another week. Will Prestonsburg and Betsy Layne fall into 'trap games' this Friday?
In "Remember the Titans" Herman Boone said football was supposed to be fun. It's not been fun for everyone. Just ask Mark Stoops and the Kentucky Wildcats. Or maybe the Bengals and Browns fanbases? Some of our high school teams are having fun like Betsy Layne and Prestonsburg. Our sports guys do a temperature check of all area teams heading into Friday the 13th of football. Are teams feeling panic, pressure, pretty good or full of pride?
Week 1 impressions from the high school landscape in the mountains. Will Floyd Central make adjustments this week against Leslie County? How does Leslie County respond after a controversial loss to Prestonsburg? Is the pride back in Blackcat football? And why don't we try to have an event similar to festivities of the Pike County Bowl here in Floyd County?
The guys return with a complete preview of the upcoming High School Football season involving Betsy Layne, Floyd Central and Prestonsburg. Will Betsy Layne take the next step as a program and reach a regional final? Can Floyd Central compete for a district title? Will Prestonsburg's young and hungry coach transform the program? Also, how much is too much when it comes to charging admission into local athletic events for students in Floyd County? Joey Votto says goodbye.
