I thought he coached at Corbin before going to Scott County??

[Les]

Umm, Bluegrass Hoops Report, Billy hicks didn't coach at Clay County before he came to Scott County. :ohbrother::eek::thumb: He coached at Corbin. Matter of fact, he's never been coach at Clay.

Oops my bad, that was a type-o, shouldve said that he coached at Corbin not Clay Co. Thanks for catching that.
