Corbin deserves the No. 6 spot. I'm glad everyone is talking about Holmes, Elliott, Scott Co. and everyone else and not Corbin. Holmes in my opinion is the best team in the state, but At the present time, the Redhounds can play with anyone in the top five.

 

Corbin has a very good team and maybe able to play with anyone in the state on a given night. But if they played Scott Co, Holmes, or say Eastern their margin for error woud be very small. Those teams are more athletic and bigger. They do have a nice team though, but just watching them I think they would have a tough time matching up with some of the top teams.

:QUOTE=Eta Rho;3243397]Holmes will go in as the favorite most likely as long as they get to Rupp. They should get there with only one loss and if they avoid SC until the semi's or finals, I really see them taking it all. They just seem to be playing on another level right now. I do think it will be a much closer game though than the first one. Key for Holmes is how much Arnold continues to progress.

 

 

Not saying Scott Co isn't the favorite in the 11th, but with all due respect they will have a more difficult road to get their than Holmes. There are teams in the 11th capable of beating Scott Co. in my opinion. I'm sure many will disagree with me, but I'm just gonna say I've seen some crazy things happen come tourney time in the 11th.

 

I know the rest in the 11th should be bowing down to all the Scott Co folks:notworthy:because they should just feel privileged to walk onto the same floor as SC, but I think their are some not quite ready to do that yet.

 

 

Scott Co. and Holmes will have a difficult road getting to Rupp. Both teams will get everyone's best shot in the regular season and post season. There are some very good well-coached teams out there.

 

As for Franklin Co. they are a solid top 25 team, probably top 15. I believe they compare similarly with Corbin, Mason, Shelby Valley, Mason, and Clark Co. just to name a few teams.

And also Mason.

 

FWIW, I also think Franklin County is deserving of a top-25 spot. We will learn a lot more about how they stack up with "the big boys" over the next few games.

I am no doubt an avid Elliott out of town supporter. But what gets me is the opinion of some on here who think that a few teams are untouchable and they are #1 and everybody else is well behind that. Anybody can go down on a given night and by the most unlikely opponent. To the Holmes supporters--You should be #1 in my opinion. That is honest humility believe you me coming from my fingers. Notice I didn't say you couldn't be beat. Your strength of schedule coupled with quality wins gives you the right to say we are #1 (right now). Doesn't automatically write anyone in on Saturday night in Rupp.

 

Bible says, "Pride comes before a fall". We would all do good to remember that including us Elliott folks. Also good to remember that anytime you point a finger you have 4 more pointing back at yourself that are more dangerous than the one pointing the other way.

Do they deserve to be #6 with a loss to Scott High?

It wouldn't be considered alright, it would be right:rolleyes:. Holmes is the best team in the state according to their wins over ranked KY opponents and until they are beat, there really should be no argument about them being the best team in the state.:thumb:

 

After all, nobody outside Kentucky has any good teams, right?:idunno::idunno::

Do they deserve to be #6 with a loss to Scott High?

 

Umm, apparently you didn't read my post. It said Corbin deserves to be No. 6. They've won 15 in a row since the loss. Let me repeat, Corbin deserves to be No. 6.

Well said LM. You always seem to be dead on with your posts. :thumb:

No, not saying that, but after all too, I don't think any Kentucky team is going to have to beat Myrtle Beach or any other out of state team to get to or win the boys state championship.

Do they deserve to be #6 with a loss to Scott High?

 

Scott High School has a good team. Beating Corbin was an upset but not as big an upset as some might believe.

I would hope that you are trying to say the Corbin is a very good team?:idunno:

Not at all, Im just saying that Cantrell probably hasnt watched every team he has rated

I haven't personally seen Corbin but do you guys feel that they are that much better than Franklin County or Anderson County?

No doubt! Just my opinion. and no way to back it up!
