Generally maybe 1 or 2 at any point will leave the county to come to EHS but they get more exposure which allows them more chances to play in college. I'm not sure you grasp the concept of the good ol boy system. Examples would be West Ridge, Science Hill, Boone, DB, Crockett. What's the one thing they do that elizabethton doesn't? They keep the same coaching staff after multiple bad seasons with no clear signs of improvement. The good ol boy system died when they brought Witten in and actually gave him control of the program from bottom to top. Other schools could do well to take notes.
