[ROCKSOLID69]

You seem very knowledgeable on the in's and out's of scheduling. I know that Coach Lucas reached out to Rock to play when the new contracts were issued prior to last season. A regional repeat and a state finals appearance made it tough for Somerset to schedule, I'm sure Rock understands that. Somerset picked up Hazard, Glasgow (two teams that were in the state finals and one who won 1a), Breathitt County, Whitley, Both the Jessamines in a bowl game (East 1 year and West the other), along with Perry Central at the back end of a district that includes Danville, Middlesboro, and LCA. Somerset is not out classed by anyone, nor are they afraid to schedule the big boys... As seen by the schedule they put together. I'm sure that if both schools reached out to each other (and they apparently did) that an open date could not be found to fit each others needs. To downgrade Somerset based on school size is an asinine, as they regularly compete with schools outside of their class and have for years.

I think these two will work things out in coming years. Would be a good game and should bring in a big crowd. The Class doesnt determine how good a team is. its just the enrollment of school. Somerset would be a worthy opponent for some 6A schools.
