I actually agree with both of these statements. Most years Johnson Central, Belfry, and Ashland either one would be a lock for a Top 5 overall team in WV... with the "strong" years being either the best or second best team in WV. The only WV team I would consider to be ahead of Johnson Central (who I think is better than Belfry and Ashland entering this season) is Martinsburg.

Then when you consider that these three teams usually all hover somewhere between Top 15-Top 25 in Kentucky... and further see the gap between the Top 4 KY teams (T, X, H, BG) and the rest of the field... and there really is no comparison between football in the two states.

Ashland further proved all this last year when they beat the 2nd or 3rd best team in the Mountain State.

So what your saying in as nice a way as possible is that WV football is weak.
