The real question is where to rank Trinity.  Finished 9 in last year's final rankings and lost a ton of production.  QB, top RBs, top WRs all gone.  Where do y'all think Trinity should be?  

I would have them #2. Last year beat every Kentucky team not named St. X or Male. Also beat Ohio power Cincy St. X. TE/WR Noah Myers returns and should have a good year. RB Luke Sasser will be good as well. I think Trinity will be better this year than last year because had a lot of young guys on defense.

Your statement that they beat every Kentucky team (on their schedule) not named St X or Male last year is correct, but how many top 25 teams in KY did they beat?  https://www.on3.com/teams/kentucky-wildcats/news/kentucky-high-school-football-rankings-final-2021-season/

They beat Ballard and Ryle handily. They also played national powers much closer than most in Kentucky would. 

[teeroy]

They did get it rolling in the playoffs and beat Ballard bad, but in the regular season Ballard had them beat and Trinity escaped 20-17. Manual destroyed Ballard just 2 weeks earlier.

 

In the playoffs Manual lost to St X by only 2 points, while Male beat T pretty bad in the playoffs and then X beat Male in the finals.  Madison Central also played St X well in playoffs and led late before running out of gas (did not have the depth X had).  Point being Trinity may have been slightly better than teams like Manual (and Madison Central) last year but barely.

[teeroy]

And neither Ballard nor Ryle finished in the top 25 last season.

Ryle played St. X close so I think they are a good team. Trinity will be improved this year.

[teeroy]

Yes Ryle was a good team last year and will be even better this year. Trinity lost a lot on offense but I assume they will have an improved defense.  When is the last time Trinity didn't have a top 15 player in the state (according to Rivals.com)?  They don't have one this year, according to Rivals.

#7 maybe Trinity?

Come on teeroy, I was expecting your next selection!
