When I guy says these losses will help us on down the line, it’s like whistling by the graveyard. Nobody really believes that but losers. Losing develops doubt. Tony is no the same coach as he was 10 years ago or even 5 years ago. I think he is tired and I just don’t see the fire from him or his teams like I used to see. Clay and Corbin used to be a game everyone circled on the calendar to go watch, now it’s just another Tuesday night game. There is change on the horizon not just for Corbin but the 13th region in general. The 13th has produced some great teams and players, but after this year who is going to be the next Noah or Sheppard or Farmer.

There are a ton of average teams in the region which will allow some of the blue bloods to continue to shine but the sun is setting

13th has also had a really nice run of talent lately.

Sheppard is likely going to end up playing in the NBA. That's a pretty big deal for any high school player from Kentucky.

Has been a nice cycle with he and Noah at the top and other athletes with non-P5 offers or D1 interest in other sports mixed in.

For any region other than the 7th, 9th, and 11th, there'd really be nowhere to go but down after this type of run-- as far as seeing an NBA and P5 scholarship player together in the same class in the 13th-15th, chances are that it does not happen again in our lifetime.
