Bell County is literally the only team with that .01% chance to upend that. Clay has fallen off and the rest will be given participation trophies in round 1.

It will be like this for next several years, these are the only 2 schools that care anything about girls basketball.

I wouldnât say that. I think itâs more about the fact people in Laurel County may have finally realized that they have nearly 70,000 people in that county and completely dominate in resources compared to the other southeastern Kentucky schools. You also have one school with about 6 players from somewhere else and the other with 1 really good one from somewhere else. Bell, Jackson, Clay, etc. have solid programs but they can only do so much now.

This times 1000. The Laurel schools are recruiting like D1 colleges.

I get that kids have always went to different schools throughout history but one in particular is taking full advantage of it and it appears most people are turning their backs. These other schools in southeastern Kentucky canât compete when their best future players decide to load up on one team. To the point were you have 25+ point margins of victory against some decent teams. Getting 1 player is one thing, but 5-6? Come on.

This what happens when you hire good coaching, people want to be associated with winning. As you well know Clay has had several move in over the years. Knox has made it a point not to support Girls sports and has lost kids for years. I believe they have Two at South this year and probably half of Barbourville team are County kids.

Iâm more referring to the amount at one time. Itâs no secret many schools often have 1 kid, maybe 2 but there is no reason to go pluck the best future players off 4-5 schools. North has one kid starting, that Iâm aware of, that isnât from Laurel County. Thatâs not abnormal. To stop beating around a bush Iâm basically saying South Laurel doesnât need the extra 3-4 girls they got to win by 25+ when they wouldâve already won games by 10+. They killed the future of several schools.

I donât disagree at all with what youâre saying. But just as to this game tonight, it could be off the charts, both teams are really good and playing well. Both put a lot of points on the board, so whichever way it goes it should be a high-scoring, entertaining game.

Is there an outlet that is going to stream the South Laurel v. North Laurel game?
