[Bull got out!]

You all are underestimating Tom E. Greer. The guy is a defensive guru, a mad scientist on defense. Some say there is no substitute for speed. But dammit, I say Boyle's speed has met its match in the mind of Corbin's Minister of Defense. He wanted me to tell you Doubters of Thomas that it's not about him but it's about the "C". And then it's about his "D".

If Corbin really had a good defensive guru they'd win the state championship.

I agree, Dougie. 100% .  I hope the sarcasm dripping from my post above was evident.

It was evident. I'm an expert when it comes to sarcasm

Agree .   I'm a white sarcasmist.

Covington Catholic isn’t close to Boyle… I have a big gap between 1st and 2cd in 4A.

1. Boyle


2. Corbin
3. Covington Catholic

4. Johnson Central/Ashland/Paducah Tilghman/Franklin County.

What would you say is the reason for the big gap between 1 and 2.  You watch a lot more football than I do. So I value your opinion more than I do mine. You know player personnel a lot better.  Is it the overall team speed that worries you most? Is Corbin's secondary suspect again like it has been for what seems like decades? What makes Boyle so much better than Corbin(besides coaching, of course)?  I know the last time I saw Corbin and Boyle play, Corbin appeared to be as good , or better, as far as overall talent in that game.

The Championship game is a game can be somewhat misleading because of nerves. It will make a game closer just because its the last game. Now in saying that. I do believe Corbins last years team was just as talented as Boyle. 

This years main theme is TEAM SPEED. Boyle is fast. I don't know who Corbin has that can matchup with Quisenberry and Brown out in the open field.

Corbin is loaded for bear again this season especially with the field vision of Kid Elam. Im not concerned with the offense of Corbin. Bart Elam proved he can flat out call a good offense worthy to win a State Championship film don't lie. Then I have to give all the Line coaches and Dline coaches some credit because they do a very good job and second to none. They were good coaches to my son when he was there and they did there jobs, film don't lie. 

Now here is my constructive criticism or concern for Corbin. It will come down to defense just like last year, the year before that and you get the picture... Its a never ending story that will come back to bite you every single time. I pay attention to the adjustments and types of defenses that are ran. Final scores will tell you alot. If you get beat, did your offense do its job or did the defense lay a egg? You have to be able to make adjustments on the fly. This is the main difference I see in Boyle and Corbin. 

If all things are equal, talent, size, speed, then the deciding factor is the chess match between coaches. (This is with any teams playing), This is why I put Boyle in a couple spaces seperating them from the pack. Haddix is like Kriss Kross on the sidelines jumping making adjsutments. LOL..He don't waste no time..  *All things are not equal. Boyle has too much SPEED..

Now to give Corbin a fair shake, Like I said, I am not worried about the offense, Kid Elam will handle that part. What I won't to see is the adjustments made under pressure when the different packages are thrown at Corbin. I also want to see the 2 Smith Twins and how they will impact a big time atmosphere game. I know everyone has told me how good they are and I want to see them.
