Casey will be what we will be. With the right coach we'll be able to play with some teams above our talent level, and hopefully win the games we are dead even with talent. That's all 85% of teams in the state are. Then you have our top 15% or so that are almost always going to win with their better talent, and often will win facing even greater talent, because of tradition, coaching, and sheer confidence. I saw a team a few years ago that only won about 2 ball games, actually as talented (or almost) as Corbin. Corbin put a running clock on them in the 1st quarter. So tradition does mean a lot, coaching means a lot, but it's always going to be who gets in the talent. Who has something in their little county, town, etc.. to offer a student to come there, or for a good coach to come coach there, etc.. Casey County has one thing to prove to me, do we care about the sport enough to try? Hell I can drive 10 extra minutes and watch Boyle and have even more places to feed my fat ***. :-)
