Zaga, you don't have to be impressed with anything Southwestern has done, we can tell you don't get out very much if you don't know who J.P. is or that Perry County's schedule is similar to Southwestern.

yes the kid is really fast he proved it as a sophomore (last year) when he turned in the fastest 100m in the state not far off from a guy named Tyson Gay. He was presented a state championship ring last week before the game, its not a hand time or one of those old school "I swear the kid runs a 4.4, I timed him myself with uncle Joe and a tape measure." They do keep specific national rankings for track so it can be that specific however I think the announcement at the game said 7th fastest all-time in the state of Kentucky, not the country. I don't know where he ranks, maybe I will ask him or the track coach this week.

Perry may upset the Warriors, its an interesting match-up one that Southwestern hasn't played yet this year, but don't get on here and say that Southwestern's schedule isn't much different than Perry's.

Southwestern non district:
Northwest Clarksville Tn (nobody knows about them I'll give you that one)
Dunbar (terrible you can have that one as well)
Madison Central
Madison Southern
Henry Clay
Central Hardin
Lexington Catholic

The last 5 are not comparable in anyway to
McCreary
Breathitt
Knott
Clay
Pike County
Prestonburg (only one that is comparable but not to the last 5)

Perry has had a great year, I don't want to take anything away from that.

I'll go ahead and answer number 1. on the unpacking list because while there may have been some bad calls this season it wasn't why they lost any game. You can question whether a kid was out of bounds or not but the kid still made a heck of a play and it's a judgement call at Southern. Southwestern made a change at QB at the end of the 3rd quarter against Henry Clay and against Madison Southern they were working the kinks out of a new QB.

Listen, I'm just saying Southwestern is a question mark to me. Perry was a question mark all year and I think they've proven they're a decent team. Not an elite team or anything - but that they can hang with the Whitley Counties on a good night and they're capable of laying eggs like they did against Harlan County. Typical Perry Central football, sadly.

I'm aware of Vaught's speed - but to say he's one of the top ten fastest kids in the country is just false. You know and I know it, so I went ahead and pointed it out. You said yourself he was #7 in the state (which is an admirable accomplishment to say the absolute least). I was just busting your buddy's chops because I've made a career out of it on here.

As for the non-district stuff, I'm not going to argue with you. But I think that Southwestern's district is weak. I think North Laurel, Whitley and Harlan County are better than any district opponent SW has and once you take that into consideration, there isn't much difference in the strength of both team's schedules. Notice all of Southwestern's losses were when they played the teams you put up for comparison and all of Perry's losses were against the teams you omitted for comparison. I know you don't pick your district games, but you still have to line up against them and play the game.

I run my mouth here a lot and I eat a lot of crow for it - but I'll predict that Southwestern is the only team from that district to survive the first round of the playoffs.
