No hostility, just wanting your perspective.

For example I would counter your reasoning by saying that Russell lost to breathitt at home and the next week Belfry dismantled Breathitt...and Ivan McGlone is offset by Phillip Haywood.

I have confidence that Russell will be a very, very good team this season and will be able to beat ANY 3A team on ANY given night.

For what it's worth I ran into one of the Russell coaches the other day and we were discussing the whole Russell/Breathitt Belfry/Breathitt game situation.

What I was told was that Breathitts coach was talking to him and told him that the reason they were dismantled by Belfry as bad as they were was due to the fact they were still beat up pretty bad from a physical game with Russell the previous week and the second one just did them in. I was also told the Russell he mentioned that Russell would have been a better match for Belfry due to their very similar styles of play.

Again that is meaningless and just a for what it's worth statement.
