Do you guys think the future of 4A in our area is ever going to change? It seems like JC and everyone else. Ashland always loses to JC, and then to a NKY school. The next would be Greenup, Rowan, Boyd and East. Do any of those four have anything that could challenge the other two?

Second, what needs to change to compete with NKY schools? You can't get much better athletically than Belcher, a few years ago. Workman now, Baker, O'Bryan, the big TE from JC...I know numbers play a big part in it but are there any other factors you guys see playing into it? Is there ever going to be a big EKY school make a deep run?

I know this is mostly a 4A discussion, but can the bigger EKY schools take a page out of Raceland, Fairviews books and try to apply that to what they do or is it completely different when dealing with schools that much smaller?

There have been several schools from EKY not only make a run, but win a championship... Just 3 years ago HC was in the 5A semis, bell county for like 4-5 years in a row was either in the championship or in the semis in 4A. Belfry, I know they're 3A, but dang... What more could you ask from a program? This thread is kind of stupid, many EKY schools have prospered over the past years
