The other season was 1939. I think Paducah was "crowned" the champion that year but Corbin had a share of it. Back then the high school football post season was like the college football post season was before the bcs. There were bowl games played after the regular season and after the bowl games were played the AP voted on a champion and the courier journal "crowned" the champion. I think it was possible for there to be a split title because of the process by which the champion was chosen. Now this is a mix of what I've heard, research. and some assumption. I honestly don't know with certainty. I wish either one of the old redhounds that knew or one of the relatives of such a redhound could shed some light on it. I want to know as much as anybody. Either way, we have five state championships and are going to play for a sixth in a little over 24 hours. I for one can't wait till the game starts. As far as the people who try to discredit the accomplishments of the guys who played before they were even alive, it's best just to remember that haters are gonna hate.
