To be honest, the thing that struck me as an outsider was that hiring the coach that ALMOST beat Boyle County seemed like a major accomplishment for Highlands. As a long time football observer in this state, and someone with huge respect for the Bluebirds, it was a sign of the changing times.
Final from London.
Lincoln led 50-14 at the half. The second half was played with the continuous running clock, and the Patriots played mostly reserves while South Laurel tallied three second half scores.
Lincoln County starts 2-0 for the first time since 2005.

They should let any student who would otherwise graduate, to repeat this school year without regard to age rules, if they so desire.
The reason for it is as much academic as athletic, but I am a proponent of letting this be a redshirt season for whoever wants it.
If you want to move on, move on. If you want to come back, come back.
I have heard French. Puts him back in a District with Lincoln County, where he was head coach 2003-2007 and makes it trade as Boyle gets Corbin’s most recent coach and Corbin gets a former Boyle Coach.
My records show:
Chuck Smith 212-44 (82.81%) in 19 total seasons
1st Stint
1992-2004 (13 seasons)he was 143-32.
5 straight state titles 1999-03, runnerup 04
2nd Stint
2014-2019 (6 seasons) he was 69-12.
1 state title 2017, runnerup 2019.
In his 9 season absence, Chris Pardue led the Rebels for three seasons and Larry French for six:
Chris Pardue 22-15 (59.46%), no titles.
Larry French 71-11 (86.59%), 2 titles.
Maybe the comedy missed its mark. Boyle County has its own share of “hollers”, unless they want to cede the Parksville/Mitchellsburg area to Lincoln County.
