Geez, when will people learn to stop trying and manufacture rivalries. Douglass football does this with Scott County and calls them “That Team Up North” it’s embarrassing and a bad look in my eyes. Why not just worry about your own team and take care of that instead of trying to talk about others.

Russell is already a big rival of Ashland and that's probably the reason he called them that.

Russell/Ashland , Ashland/Johnson Central, Ashland/Boyd County, Greenup/Russell Russell/Raceland, Raceland/Greenup County These are all big rivals in NEKY.

 

I forgot about East/West Carter as well.

MM31,

I’m not real versed in NEKY Sports but I do know that anybody has to manufacture a rivalry between Russell and Ashland. I’m pretty sure there has been a long standing rivalry between the two schools.

 

As far as the FD football coach ..... Great Move! He has a new school with no established rivalries. So why not try to establish a rivalry from the beginning. I consider it marketing your program and motivating kids.
