[Real Badman]

KSR is a trash publication. Matt Jones is a trash human. All around bad. This is the worst.

I cannot stand Matt Jones and don’t see how anyone can listen to that fool.

[Gridiron_Raid]

Well rather than just say it sucks, let’s hear some actual opinions on why.

[Bull got out!]

I'm all about a opinion about rankings. I'm sure Matt Jones has nothing to do with it honestly other than his starting the original business and then selling the product which is smart. Really smart.  We used to listen to him at work while we were working outside, and no one around and we had plenty of good discussions about why we either agreed or disagreed about the topics. 

As for the rankings in my opinion. Highlands is not on it and they should be a real contender in 5A this season. Southwestern is a team locally that should be on the bottom somewhere of the top 25. Then me personally, I don't know how you would rank a team like Ashland ahead of per say Johnson Central when Ashland has not beaten them just yet. Maybe this season but so far no cookies. But if JC was above them, then I wouldn't mind them being near the 25 spot. Then I think when I look at that top 10. Corbin got a real nice high ranking when they have just went through a new coaching change and graduated plenty. Like I stated already. I love opinions about how someone sees what they see. Thats good for debate. Then I'll say like Scott County. If they are as good as Big Daddy Bull is saying after he made sure to quote me like a whole page lol   then they should be near that top 10 easy as I do think they are a threat in 5A but not sure anyone takes Bowling Green out in December. But you never know. So that's a few things I see immediately when I look at the rankings. Boyle is no doubt the top team or at least within that top 3. Trinity may be the best team this year overall. I still think Scott County will improve.   Im just messing with you Big Daddy Bull. Don't break the quote button to blast me lol. I know you wasn't trying to disrespect me but I'll take all the information you can give lol.

We need to get a committee together and start a BGR top 25 ranking for the state.

 My Bad I did quote you a book, I was actually trying to delete some things, but I guess I was hitting wrong button. Not saying they are great, just threw me off when you said they are improving lol. Well, I guess they are kind of improving since they lost a whole 6A school 1800 students a couple of years ago.  I was very high on Highlands until I seen what Bowling Green did to Male, and Highlands just barely beat Male, and yes it was a scrimmage but BG demolished Male like 44-10 in 3Q.

For me I didn't go into details on why I said improving. Scott County no doubt has done very well as a program. I do remember when Clay County years ago when Shannon Arnett was coach went up to Scott County and beat them at their place. But Scott County was in a situation to where they had the talent available and made the most of it. The Great Crossing situation didn't help them any. 
[Video: http://https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAynG4V63YE]
But where I do the pick em and sat and watched them last year play at Boyle, I knew how good Scott County was in the past but since I had been following 4A hard, I just remember when Franklin County went in and smacked them right out of the gate in 2021. Fri, Aug 20, 21 Franklin County at Great Crossing (Birds Nest Stadium) (L) 14 - 43   seeing them last year, I thought well, they are definitely improving from just the last few years not meaning anything negative but just of late. I knew they had beat Bowling Green but if I remember they also won that scrimmage last season. I mis say stuff all the time. I do think they will improve though...

BG and SC pose weird match ups for one another. Seems every time that BG looks inept to stop the run and SC looks inept to stop the pass when they get together.

Their scrimmages the past 3-4 years have all been decided by a score and in all of them they only played 2-2.5 qtrs. They have never met in a real game and I am fine with not seeing Scott Co personally unless its in the state championship. I'm sure they feel similarly


Needless to say I wouldn't want to play either when you get right down to it

Wow Bull I was at that game, SC started the season 0-3 if not mistaken. Finished like 10-3 and think lost to Male in the semi-finals- small world.

[jetpilot]

Jones is one of the most repulsive people out there, for several reasons. I do like Teeroy though. Biggest blunder that sticks out to me is Highlands.

[BEChargers]

Bullitt East not in the top 25. That's fine because it's the ranking towards the end of the season that matters. But......they just beat Ballard on Friday in each teams final scrimmage and Ballard is ranked 16th. BE may not be top 25 in the state but if they are not, then Ballard isn't either.

[16BBall Fan]

Well rather than just say it sucks, let’s hear some actual opinions on why.

Well, I don't think Lexington Cath. should be ranked and also not having Simon Kenton and especially Highlands neither in the top 20 is bad.

According KSR Frederick Douglass has 7 or the 10 games vs. teams in the top 15. They have 4 of their 7 vs. teams in the Top 5.

[Old School Hound]

A lot of hate for Middlesboro's Mr. Matt Jones. His politics, no doubt. I know Matt. He's not a bad guy. A bit on the cocky side at times...sure. But aren't we all? Fantastic businessman. Really smart guy. Knows his sports pretty well. too. His publication is usually pretty high on Corbin. If the Hounds were to upset Fred Douglass later on in the season, KSR will have Boyle and Corbin both in the top five by season's end.

That was true for a pretty good percentage of them.

If Jones was MAGA, the people who said that Matt was a trash human being would have neve, EVER made such a statement.

[fansville]

Male is way too high at this point, probably should be in that 15 range until they prove otherwise after BG smacked them around. Week 1 will sort some of it out, preseason rankings are basically a crap shoot

It's almost always politics.


Some of you hit and run posters please explain why Matt Jones is a trash human being, without bring up his politics or his book about the ugly turtle or his views on the democracy weakening Cheeto-in-Chief.

Btw, what's wrong with this list? One can, and will, argue with any list. But this one's not that bad.

I took my comment off to keep the direction of the post back on football. I see why some may express the opinions they do now that Jett has shown the discussions in another forum. Especially the rankings. I would like to see some others who think a team might be higher or lower.

These rankings are probably just 1 or 2 guys opinion, no Coaches or real media involved just mainly for clicks so do not take these serious, but for discussing sake I really like Dixie Heights seen them play Cooper last year at Cooper teams looked even to me Cooper won 21-14 scored late for the win.

We need to get a committee together and start a BGR top 25 ranking for the state.

We used to do just that.  I actually sponsored it and would tally all the rankings and post a final median rank.  Pissed off everybody; and I mean NOBODY was happy with the final numbers!!! 

I don't care for Matt Jones, and I don't feel compelled to list the reasons.  I care a lot for his mother; top notch kind of person.  But you can't deny Matt Jones' ability as a businessman.  He also has the amazing quality of polarizing every single person who listens to him for more than a couple of minutes.

Bottom line, rankings mean absolutely NOTHING to me.  Very few public rankings are objective and made by people who have an agenda.

How do these rankings compare to max preps? I compared a few. Seems like KSR definitely has their favorites or maybe just some teams they don’t respect.
