Having Johnson Central at #7 is criminally low.

 

With what they have coming back putting past 2nd is even hard to comprehend.

 

For my money Johnson Central is the pre-season #1 .

There are another 5 that could be.

"huge gap", I can't make a comment like that but I feel pretty confident in saying the most talented team is John Hardin. The only reason I put them second is they may be one year away but their talent is scary.

Everyone has Ashland ranked too high. I'd put them in the 8-10 range.

Tbh I have little faith in my picks. Johnson should be the best, but past that 2-15 aren't separated by much. It will be a fun season !!

Scott Eagles staying under top 10 radar !!

Madisonville lost a great senior group, they will have to reload and win some games before being a top 5 team in the state again.

Scott will be able to beat some top 10 teams.

I agree. I also like us staying under everyones radar. Can't wait to upset some teams this season .

This entire Class is a tough one too call because all of the top teams in 4A last season have either moved up to 5A or down to 3A.... When determining which teams should be placed where in my list, I first determined where they ranked in their perspective classes last season, and went from there. Because of that, it is very hard for me to call anyone the clear cut favorite. If there was a clear cut favorite, an argument could be made for South Warren considering their Top 4 finish last season in 3A, while also returning their entire team from last season.

Just being curious but what made you put Russell County in the top 10. They were last in their district. Do they have a nice young class coming up?

South Warren was very young last year and were pretty darn good, I think the 4-A Class will be the most competitive of the 6 classes.

No idea how one would have Ashland above JC, considering they have 18 of 22 starters back from a team that has beat Ashland a combined 84-14 the past two seasons.
