Yeah, I do not follow your logic so you will have to explain this one and validate why Russell, who fell in the State Quarters last year and seemingly return less experience than Belfry, who dominated the Eastern half of 3A, can honestly be justified as being ahead of the Pirates at this point?

I really fail to see why he has to validate an opinion.

I will say I think people are overestimating what Russell lost. Tyler Jones was a big loss but that came after the injury in the Asland game. He was never close to 100% the rest of the year.

Other than that they graduated most of the defensive line and 3 offensive linemen. Good players but all replaceable. Everyone else is back stronger and healthier.

Belfry lost much more in May and Hickman and I believe two offensive linemen.

Breathitt County lost their quarterback which is a huge loss in that offensive system. They were decent upfront and had very good but not great recievers.


Really I believe you give Belfry a slight edge because of returning linemen. With Russell and Breathitt County very close if not just as good.
