ATLCat Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 The outstanding @gchs_uk9 recently did an awesome study where he statistically broke down the 50 Greatest Programs of Kentucky History from a statistical standpoint. You can find that thread here: http://bluegrasspreps.com/ky-football-high/50-greatest-programs-318379.html Using those 50 Teams I thought it would be fun to get a picture of the Historical Significance of all the current classes as the alignment has them today. In told, 49 teams will be applicable as Lynch East Main is the lone closure. Here is how the Top 50 Falls By Classification (_) Will denote the school's rank in the Top 50 and will be followed by the points they represent from the study 1A 1. Beechwood (4) 241 2.

MayfieldFan Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 It was my understanding that there would be no math. J/k. Interesting stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XtraIce Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Nice analysis. The difference between 4A and 5A would have been much closer if HHS and Cov Cath had not moved up to 5A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLCat Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share Posted December 23, 2015 Nice analysis. The difference between 4A and 5A would have been much closer if HHS and Cov Cath had not moved up to 5A. Boyle and LexCath as well... that is 4 Top 25 Programs and a pair of Top 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLCat Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share Posted December 23, 2015 I am excited to see gchs_uk9's cumulative rankings. I have to think you will see this strengthen 3A's case even more. Caldwell County and Trigg County should be near the top of the 50's... Lawrence County, Garrard County, and Sheldon Clark I would hypothesize are all in the Top 75, then Union County and Waggener wont have bad scores. The other programs that stand out I expect to see listed fairly early beyond #50: Paintsville Crittenden Co Lloyd Memorial LCA Monroe Co Bullitt East Rockcastle Co Bourbon County Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
