Shits about to get real 
nicker:
Thank God this is finally happening and the people that need to be gone are gone and everything is good.
This will be great for both programs. I was telling old jacket before I even checked the thread that I thought the last time these two played was in 85, and according to the story, it looks like I was dead on. I was ONE year old the last time these two played.
Both coaches get a year with there teams to get accustomed and both teams should be pretty good next year. Whitley was a very young team over the past couple of seasons and it will be great to see everything come together, not to mention Corbin appears to finally be getting a lot of talent back and appear to be on there way to the front of that district.
Fun Fact:
Corbin is 15-0 against Whitley all time. When they play in 2015, it will be exactly 30 years since they last stepped on the field. Im going to get some more info on the series, and relay it very soon.

I guess ill be making the trip back home for at least one game in 2015.
You couldn't pay me a weeks paycheck to miss the first one of this series. I bet Whitley is packed that night, especially if both teams are doing really well.

The most people ive ever seen at Whitley was when we played Bell in 2000. Standing room only. I expect this to be comparable.

Great crowd for sure in this game.

If they keep this thing going, it could literally be a make or break game right off the bat. If you win, you get a full steam of confidence behind you. If you lose, your down in the dumps right off the bat.

this game will probably bring a lot of fans in from surrounding towns.

Just look what new blood at the helms of each program has already done!!!!!
This should be big gate for both schools. Let's just hope that this isn't a two year deal and done thing.

Can you imagine if Wburg, Lynn Camp, and South Laurel were all on long road games in week 1. Most assuredly, fans would want to check this game out instead of going on a long drive.
To be honest, im excited to see the 2016 game at Corbin.
Just think about it, Corbin should try and back up Nibroc while the game is going on. People could just walk on over to the field, can you imagine the numbers?
