The district was not very strong most years, although had some pretty good teams like Middlesboro, Garrard Co., Russell Co., Leslie Co., Wayne Co., Green Co. etc. I saw some really good 2A teams in the region though, E-town, LaRue Co., Louisville Western, Russell, Newport Central Catholic, Prestonsburg.

Corbin's schedule was always rated as one of the 10 most difficult in 2A by MaxPreps and usually was one of the 5 hardest within their class. When comparing schedules, you need to copmpare within the team's class because a 5A or 6A team's overall schedule should be much more difficult than an 1A, 2A or 3A school.

I dont think you understand where im coming from.
Corbins schedule for a 2A school was decent, but until three years ago, they had probably the weakest class in 2A and there were several 1A district stronger than there.
Having Casey, Adair, Taylor, and Russell County was just a horrible district overall. Its the reason Corbin went a decade without losing a district game.
When looking at 2A in the early 00's, in 01, they went undefeated, well because Lex Cath had to forfit there games and while 11-0 lost to Larue in the second round, in 02 against Breathitt in the state championship, they were completely blown out. The entire 2A class was bad except for one team that year. The next year, they were actually better than the year before, but overall as a class, it wasnt that tough and the next year, when they went deep again, they get beat by Williamsburg who couldnt even win there region in 1A.

We can compare Corbins schedule and how tough it is to teams in there class, but dont forget, with a few more kids, Corbin is likely to be a 4A school come the next realignment, and if so, they will continue to struggle greatly.

Duncum is a good coach. He did magic with North Laurel back in the early 00's. Dont think im simply hating on Corbin. I'd like to see them do well there. It only benefits the community, but until a change is made, its highly unlikely. Corbin has also always had a stud and a star to compliment him. I havent seen that in years.
