Consistency is key here. What teams are near the top year in and year out over the decades no matter if team talent is high, mediocre or low, those are the teams with the best “coaches”. Lots of coaches can win with the best team especially when they have the best player in school history. Jones from Harlan Co did a phenomenal job this season but has a lot of years of consistency before he’s at the top of the list. How long has it been since Tony P or Jeff D have had the top 1 or 2 player in the state (2018ish for corbin and not sure on South Laurel). Yet somehow they are year in and year out they are top 3 in terms he region over decades, coaching is why.
