The reason it's no longer the rivalry it was is because your biggest loss from last year wasn't Slone or Grimm or Vanhoose.

It was BMR.

You can replace players. You can't replace THAT. And you KNOW it.

This team will never be the same again without him. Just like JC's girls won't be the same without Wireman, just like JC football won't be the same without Matney, just like PHS baseball isn't without Adkins, and so on and so forth. Coaches make programs legendary, period. Do you think a player like Landon Slone, for example, moves from Floyd County to play for a coach who isn't BMR? Especially now that he could move the OTHER way down 23 and play for a state contender at Valley? Negative, Ghost Rider. The pattern is full.

Will Ratliff or McKenzie one day be great coaches? Who knows? But for now, neither one of them is BMR, and these are going to remain two pretty average mountain ball teams until either one coach learns greatness or one school goes out and hires some greatness.
