Franklin County's football team finished the past two seasons at
4 and 6, missing the playoffs both of those years. Now in their
sixth season under Head Coach Chris Jones, there's no time like
the present for the Eagles.  "Yeah, we've got to win,” said
Jones. “We've got to be up there with seven, eight, or nine
wins. You know nowadays and the way the playoffs are, some teams
are getting in at 4-and-6 or 5-and-5 and some teams aren't. So
it's tough. It's what it is and we just got to make the best out
of it,” he said.  "You know definitely when we were freshman and
sophomores looking-on, we saw how hard they worked and what it
took to get there,” said senior quarterback/safety Bradley
Parcell. “… You gotta be here giving it all you want because if
you don't you're not going to make it. And when you get to the

taking plays off because everyone wants to keep going. That's
what you gotta do,” he said. Making the postseason won't be easy
