I know it’s tough has hell to fill a schedule.
Some of these teams sound great to have on a schedule but….you guys gonna hate me haha. I feel some of these teams are strong teams only by tradition of days gone bye. Danville is in noway the Danville of old. NCC is nothing like the use to be. I know nothing of KCD. I love the new teams though I just don’t know if it’s truly a tougher schedule haha. Hell I would love for Paris to be as good as they use to be. Back in the day Paris was one of the most athletic teams we would play all year. It’s gonna be fun watching new teams this coming year. Excited to see how every thing will pan out!

I played against the NCC teams from the early 2000’s and they were no joke.  Danville during that stretch was a beast too.  Both teams aren’t at that level now but are still solid competition for the Rams and I think both teams are a step up from Greenup and Russell.  I like having Pikeville, Highlands, and Hazard, and possibly LCA too.  Ashland will be really tough next year as well.  Raceland will take some lumps next year but I think we will be better for it in the long term.  Best case scenario I think we go 7-3 in the regular season with a worst case 5-5 but we will be battle tested when the playoffs roll around.
