[Old School 18]

DJ Hunter will be taking his talent to Frederick Douglas next season if the Boyle county situation doesn’t come fruition.

You know what that means.. Boyle’s pockets aren’t deep enough.

Yep. HS sports is as bad as college.  Just terrible.

Yea. OSH i just wish my school would catch on. We got a few young players last year but middlesboro hasn’t had any luck with getting a big time transfer in a minute.

I am a big Middlesboro fan. In the Old School days, Corbin and Middlesboro were big rivals, in the same district. Winner of the C-M game won district, the other team went home. It was an awesome rivalry. GREAT games, GREAT teams!!!  I'm convinced that the Corbin-Middlesboro teams in '76 were two of the very best in the state, regardless of class. Corbin won 10-9  in the 'Boro and went on to beat Maygfield 6-0 for the state title. Middlesboro was every bit as good. I really want to see the Jackets return to the dominant powerhouse they were in the seventies and eighties. I root hard for the Jackets, as do most in Corbin. We love and respect our old rivals like Middlesboro, Somerset, and Mayfield. GO JACKETS!!!

I've been pulling for Corbin quite a bit. Especially since You all moved from our district in 2A to Bells district in 3A there for a while. The rise of Corbin football ever since about Haddix's second year forward has made local football way more exciting. The 2023 Corbin Frederick Douglas game was the best high school football atmosphere that I've witnessed in person. And the game lived up to the hype as well. I literally felt like i was watching two college teams between the talent on the field and the large fanbases on both sides.
