Well, actually it would be a pretty damn big deal. A district title and 11 or 12 wins would be a great season for most schools, including Whitley Co. If the only thing that matters is winning a state title, then there is no reason for many, many schools to even bother playing. No one from Laurel has said anything about winning a state title with this team, and I really don't remember anyone saying anything about beating PC, ain't happening if everyone's healthy. Southwestern maybe. Why all the bitterness at Laurel, Gut, did you flunk out of Sue Bennett?

You must have missed the argument by Gut last year that any coach who doesn't win a state championship in a four-year (maybe five) span should be dismissed.
It reminds me of when Harlan County opened and people said they could never win a state title because Highlands would get them. My response was that I'd take it because that meant Harlan County won a REGIONAL title and made it to the state semifinals.
North is on the way to perhaps the best season in school history. That's plenty of reason to celebrate, especially with a district championship in the process.
