I always thought the Russell County job had/has potential. Being the only school in the city/county is a positive as it is much easier to get things done. However, Russell County district with Boyle, Taylor, Wayne, and Lincoln is rough. If you do beat 3 of the 4 you get Corbin first round of playoffs.
Without question!!!
I think the issue is players' families going on vacation during fall break. As a coach do you practice with 10-20 kids showing up? What do you get out of a practice with over half your team not there?
As Coach Preston said I have no dog in this fight. I just think that is silly to hold against him because it is common practice in very successful programs. I would guess 3/4 of coaches try to get the open week and fall break the same week.
Adair has been the best team in the Region so far IMO. Larue started 2-4 but since then has been very impressive. Will be a barn burner in Russell County.
To me FD was the best team in the state last year.
I know it was early in the season but BE did lose to Spencer County. And Boyle´s win over BG was close to say margin as FD beat them by. I know comparing scores gets iffy at best. Not saying Boyle could win 6A but I believe they would be in the mix. And a yeah then the big 3 of X,T, and Male were not a dominated as in recent years.
