Watered down system? Highland's, in 5A, had the easiest road to the state title game every year. In my opinion, the most competitive class has been 4A. Not saying that 4A has the best teams but from top to bottom it was the most competitive. I just want to welcome Highland's to 4A. They won't have it so easy now. However, Highland's deservingly should be the favorite to win it all. And like you, I cannot wait for the Boyle/HHS game. People might be surprised. :biggrin:

Boyle started off with Johnson Central and Franklin County in 2010. They started off with Johnson Central and Rockcastle County in 2009.

You are right, 5A was/is a joke;all the classes are. I agree that 4A is probably more competative, but the system is still a joke. 5A was easy for HHS, but overall class wise, 1A and 2A, and 3A would have been a breeze for HHS (yes Central would have been a good game possibly, but top to bottom, easier). Highlands had it easy in 5A class, but scheduled well outside of class. Do not think they have not seen/played teams better than Boyle. I think people from Boyle will be surprised also, because they think Highlands is the same as in the 90's. This team has really upped the talent and dedication to the program since the 90's (top to bottom, the talent is much better and alot more time put in the wt room and off season). Highlands fans respect Boyle's program, but feel we have tougher schedule and upper hand at the present time. This is a very exciting time for Highlands fans and program. By the way, how about alittle more insight on you up come season (top players, what type of O do you expect to see, special teams, what are D backs like, ect.).
