Congratulations to the Redhounds looks like total dominance

[Hound05]

First and foremost I’ll eat a little crow from the hound nation. I thought it would be somewhere around the 30-35 range to about 14.

Congrats to LCC on a great season. I know they are probably looking forward to next year!! Some great athletes that are young. If they build on this season, they’ll continue to make some noise in the 4A East!!

Now that that’s out of the way…. Man oh man!!! Wheeeeeewwww!!! Like OSH, I was a little hesitant to believe the number 1 by Corbin’s name. They proved me wrong and then some!! Completely shut LCC down. And as you can tell from their stats and schedule results. Not many have done that. Actually outside of a Davy Crockett team, no one has!!! I mean this with the up most respect for LCC because I’ve enjoyed watching them this week, but Corbin poured it on them, and done it in every facet of the game. LoS, rushing, Passing, everything. Burn the hounds shouldn’t get a big head just yet, they might be the best team in the East, but I saw a couple things that need fixed, or tightened up. But a solid performance against a team that puts up some points. Only thing I can say now…. Is I’m a believer! And this week is gonna be FUNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!

I know I go back quite a bit further than you do(I wish I was your age...LOL) but is this the best Corbin team you've seen?  At least, the stretch of play we've seen the last half of the season.

No, unfortunately as of right now they aren’t the best Corbin team I’ve seen. One if the best I’ve seen. Probably not THE best, but everyone forgets about the 1992 runner up team that lost to ft Knox. Man they were beasts. But the best one overall that I’ve seen play and can remember, probably from early 90s to now, didn’t even win a title. It was the 2018 team. Stacked on both sides of the ball, and I don’t think this team is too far off, the way they’ve played after the close game with SK. Yea competition got way easier. But I’m not comparing ourselves to them or anyone. I’m judging them on how I know they can play. And they playing pretty dæmn good!

[Sgt Slaughter]

We absolutely came out ready to play. If we come out with that same intensity 3 more games , we’ll finally have the title back in Corbin. I’m not sure if letcher isn’t as advertised or we came out looking like a team on a mission. Wow.

[Micro-Brew]

I tried to tell people from week 1 that Corbin was legit, but hey what do I know. Congrats Hounds good luck going forward.

The fact that the 2018 team didn't beat Central is a travesty. They were 2-3 TD's better on most days than Central.  Was Dale Fox on that '92 team or was he before that? He was a beast of a running back.

Keep in mind Hound that Corbin didn’t play Bolton and West on the defense either… That’s what speaks volumes to me more than anything. How about Cameron Combs gee whiz!! Kid is unreal!

Funny you said that. An old alumni and a friend came to the game tonight and we sat there and I told him the best thing about the the defense tonight, west and Bolton didn’t even play. He’s familiar with us as he’s watched on tv several times, but he asked “who are they?”  I said you see the
Biggest two guys standing there on the sideline? Them!! 

That just adds a whole new element to that defense if we have to go heavy down there. Because our Dline is amazing anyways.

This is the first time I have felt comfortable rating Corbin as the best 4A team. All season, I've had Boyle at #1(and they could still very well win it all) but this 297-0  stretch has made me a believer.

That’s why I was being a little hesitant on them, mostly because of last year. But I knew the teams we’ve played this year were far harder than last year. But the hounds have sold it to me tonight. Did anyone here any official stats? Heck even unofficial? I’d be surprised if J.Little had over 50 yards rushing. 

You will see a 3rd Round rematch with Johnson Central next week in Corbin. Can’t wait.

I cant wait to watch them melt down. no slack will be given. lol

I told an old friend, the hell with getting a clock and letting go. If… and I’m saying IF so nobody gets their panties in a wad, Corbin could put a clock on JC i hope they run it all the way aroind and back to zero!!

[Old School Hound]

JC beat these Cougars by, what, 1 point at home?  I feel a Rude Awakening for some birds next Friday night.

I’m as high on the Hounds as anyone. I personally think this bunch would curb stomp those 70’s and 80’s teams. The depth would end it pretty quick.

All that said, I will never underestimate Johnson Central. They’ve handled us the past two years. While I think we will be the rightful favorite, they’re not getting overlooked by me. I’ll be very surprised if the streak goes to 7 games but I sure hope it does. Hounds are capable of it but they can’t rest on their laurels.

Heard their administration saying that Johnson central was gonna do some Eagle Flaps next week on it.

[Bulldogs4Ever]

JC will play Corbin a lot better than LCC did but this is Corbin’s year to move on to week 4.

Corbin 42
JC - 28

Probably. I always try to think of it in perspective. Teams were different back then. Which I know I don’t have to tell you that. But i the point I guess I’m trying to make when people ask about the best teams I’ve saw, I compare to the level of competition in that time. Our 1996 team was running the spread for the most part in a time that it was about unheard of in eastern ky. I bet that team would wipe the 80s teams. Like someone said, depth and the fact that back in the day you didn’t have 3 or 4 people that could cover the pass on D. Kids now days are for the most part faster, maybe a little stronger, use better techniques, and there’s more of them. 

I hate to reminisce on it because of what they did in the first round. But man do you guys remember that 96 squad. I don’t know if I’m just letting my imagination get the best of me. But it seems like they could split 4 guys out and everyone of them would run 4.2 40 hah. I think the QB was Danny steely, and he had a dang arm!

I played on the ‘96 team. Played corner. Coach Whitaker was a heck of a coach. He loves spread offense. Danny was probably one of the toughest QB’s I’ve ever known. Great team with a great disappointment lol
Lost second round to Madison southern. Funny how you remember that what if’s as long as you live. That’s what I keep telling my son, don’t blink or let up. You’ll never get these downs back again.

'76 Corbin team had the best offensive player (and all-around player) I've seen at Corbin in Steve Bird and the best defensive player I've seen in R.C. Thomas. I would put that bunch up against anyone, And the coaching staff was top notch. Advantage '76 team.

I know there’s not an asterisk by that year. But people can believe what they want. You play that season 100 times. Corbin would win 95 of the titles. 

I’ve never got to ask anyone. What happened? I mean we just blew that team out a couple weeks prior. 

That’s why I’m hoping this team stays grounded and focused. Like I said. I saw some things that as an opposing coach, id be highlighting. But a solid overall performance. 

'76 Corbin team had the best offensive player (and all-around player) I've seen at Corbin in Steve Bird and the best defensive player I've seen in R.C. Thomas. I would put that bunch up against anyone,  And the coaching staff was top notch. Advantage '76 team.

I’ve only got to see RC on some old tapes that we’re grainy. But I’ve been told by people outisde if Corbin, they wouldn’t want to go against him!!

and to answer your question about LCC you posted earlier. I think it’s a combination of both. In don’t care what team stepped out on that field tonight, they were gonna get beat outside of a couple 6A and a 5A team. But I also think as good of a team as they were, LCC was given a little more credit than they deserved, solely on the fact they played a decent Johnson central team close. Honestly that was it. Because they didn’t really play anyone else that would give you that same thought. BReathitt co. Might have a decent team. But as I said way before the game, you can’t use stats against JV teams to try and gauge yourself. We did last year, and look what happened. But I do think the team that comes next week that shall not be named because Bull don’t have the thread out yet, will give us their best performance all season.

[Hound05]

I might have missed it, I asked earlier. Did anyone get any stats? I should have left with about 5 min left and seen if Ron had any on the radio.

[Old School Hound]

What made the '76 Corbin team so elite was its defense. They held a Mayfield team that was averaging 40+ points/game to 0 points in the state championship game. They held one of the state's best teams and elite offenses in Middleboro to 9 points in the district clincher at Mboro. The guys on the defense were big , mean, and intimidating, and they looked the part, some with full beards. When your defensive line is anchored by a monster like RC Thomas, you know your defense is badass. Those dudes were SCARY.... and scary good!!!

[pjdoug]

I'm tired. Goodnight friends.

What made the '76 Corbin team so elite was its defense.  They held a Mayfield team that was averaging 40+ points/game to  0  points in the state championship game.  They held one of the state's best teams and elite offenses  in Middleboro  to 9 points in the district clincher at Mboro.  The guys on the defense were big , mean, and intimidating, and they looked the part, some with full beards. When your defensive line is anchored by a monster like RC Thomas, you know your defense is badass.  Those dudes were SCARY.... and scary good!!!

I'm a Thomas too

I'm not shocked...   LOL

The opponents were  probably terrified. Their lives were likely threatened.

Wouldn't surprise me. I can only imagine what Thomas, John Francioni. and that bunch of misfits said to the opposing players during the game. I was a schoolmate of that bunch and I was scared as hell of 'em. I had art class with Thomas and he would come to class drunk most mornings. Everyone was scared to say anythiing to him about it,

I would have been.  I never associated with Thomas and some of those guys , although RC was always okay to me whenever he spoke to me.  He was named 1st team All-State his senior year. Received a four year scholarship to  UK but got into a fight with and threatened  a UK running back the first day of spring practice and was kicked off the team and out of school. Four years later, stabbed his mother and cousin to death.  Really a shame. Too bad that he didn't allow football to be a healthy outlet for his anger and aggression. Most intimidating presence I ever saw on the football field, Opposing players were scared to death of the guy because he didn't care to hurt them and will tell them as much.

I bet he enjoyed trash talk. lol. It would have been interesting to have that Corbin defense mic'd up to hear what was being said on the field.

I've often thought about that , Dougie. Very little of that talk could have been for public consumption, I'm sure. I remember a bloody  fight in the school between Thomas and John Francioni.  John was a big, big dude but he lost that bloody battle.  You couldn't have paid me enough money to go up against RC Thomas, either on the football field or elsewhere. Dude was psycho.
