Just one I think. Most of us realize that we have to get past Corbin first. Then the state semis. Some just think that because we won the first one since 78 last year that we are automatically entitled to going again.

I had a parent last year tell me that when they win there championship next year that this years won't mean as much. Some people don't live in the real world. It is TOUGH to go back to back and most of us realize that.

Some just can't seem to adjust their maroon colored glasses properly.

Agreed, I think this is the feeling of most Russell faithful who are realistic anyway. I know the team is not looking toward anything but Corbin and it would be very foolish to think it won't be incredibly difficult to get back to the championship. Last year should have convinced people of how difficult it is, remember everything that had to go our way last year. I could go on and on. Like I said, vast majority of Russell fans are not overlooking Corbin and certainly not overlooking Middlesboro or Belfry. That would be just plain foolish. But to answer the question, yes I do believe Russell CAN win it but whether they do or not is still to be determined week by week. The players and coaches know that and that's all I care about.
