I think one of the main reasons teams from the 14th region have not won a state tournament since the mid 1950's is they think small. Is there is everyone's dream just to win a regional tournament teams talk for 30 years about how they won the region. Big time programs talk about winning state tournaments they are not just satisfied to get there. Let's just put post season play in Kentucky in the same context as the NCAA tournament. when you get to the semi finals of the regional tournament there are 64 teams left in the state. Finals=32 regional champions are sweet 16, elight 8, final 4, and national champion. Teams from the mountains need to start looking at the bigger picture and get it out of their head that Rupp Arena is not the temple on the mount unless you win the state tournament. I guess what I am trying to say is looking at the big picture if you ain't first you're last!
