I know some teams have better records and that is how the rankings should go but if it were up to me to list who I think the best teams are, it would be as follows.

 

1. Cumberland

2. Corbin

 

 

3. South Laurel

4. Clay County

5. Knox Central

6. Jackson County

7. Pineville

8. Middlesboro

9. North Laurel

10. Whitley County

Whitley is improved, but I don't see how they get ranked ahead of Bell at this point. I also would like to know who Lynn Camp has defeated to get them in the top 10 ahead of Bell and Whitley.

I put Whitley in front of Bell because they have played a much harder schedule and beaten some decent teams ande played some good teams close. Bell Co.'s schedule has been very weak, with Cawood probably being their best win so far.

1 - Corbin (Watch out when Crawford gets back!!!)

2 - Cumberland

3 - Knox Central (beat Jackson County)

4 - Jackson County

5 - North Laurel

6 - Clay County

7 - Pineville

8 - Middlesboro

9 - South Laurel

10 - Lynn Camp

 

Lynn Camp lost 87 to 60 today to a decent Glasgow team today and their best win so far I guess would be over Red Bird twice, so not above Bell Co. at this time. Seen where Whitley lost one and won one today they are playing alot of games over the break!

Wow what happend to the Wildcats? I thought they would play the Scotties close.

Clay beat Knox Central so how could anyone have KC ranked in front of Clay?

I think 4CHS has it pretty close. Whitley has earned its way there with a 9-5 record and they have played some pretty good teams close. After beating a good and athletic Clinton TN team in the Wayne Tourny they showed they are growing up, and may even deserve a higher (by 1 or 2) ranking.

 

 

Knox Central, like Whitley ran into a buzz saw in the Wayne tourny, playing ST X from Ohio. Knox was worn down when they started the game, I would have liked to see them play them on fresh legs, like Whitley having to play Warren Central after playing a game just 4 hours earlier.

 

The Top 2 are pretty solid in those positions and far ahead of everyone else but the rest are pretty even, in that on a given night I think if they play any of those teams could win.

 

Till Lynn Camp beats a good team they really can't earn their way there. But they are close.

Lynn Camp lost to Model tonight. They aren't close.

 

I'd put Barbourville and Cawood and maybe OBI and Harlan ahead of them at this point.

Harlan? They must be playing much better as of late to be ahead of the Wildcats. No way is Lynn Camp a bottom five team. Wburg, Evarts, Red Bird,Harlan are for sure below the Cats. OBI, Barbourville are close perhaps.

Harlan led North Laurel in the fourth quarter and played them within eight. Lynn Camp lost by 50 or so to Jackson County. Who has Harlan lost to that Lynn Camp would beat?

Leslie County, for one.

Leslie County, for one.

 

 

 

Maybe, but I think it could go either way after seeing them both. Les still owes me popcorn from last year's Lynn Camp-Harlan game. Perhaps we can do a double or nothing in the rematch.

I just don't think there's anyway that Harlan could beat Lynn Camp at Lynn Camp. Les make take you and even the score. But, then again, it is Lynn Camp and stranger things have happened.

I saw Evarts play a very, very close game at Lynn Camp a couple of weeks ago. Lynn Camp could win, but I think it will be close. Lynn Camp is better offensively, but Harlan is better defensively.
