That is simply not true. If they make it far enough they will see a couple teams as talented or more than HHS

I promise there is one possibly two as or more talented, there are zero teams with that combo of size, power and overall team speed. Huntington is a bigger version of Boyle. The advantage I would give to Boyle is more accomplished receivers and a more accurate QB. The Blackwell kid from HHS has an arm that makes Lanter's look like a pea shooter. Lanter is more accurate and Smith makes catches only Smith can make IMO. Smith, to me, and the improved running game when Boyle has all their backs, gives them the edge over everyone in 3a. Otherwise, Belfry will see 3 teams total that can match Boyles size. Midland, JC, and HHS. No one they will see has a Reese Smith and to me he is the difference. There comes a time when great players make plays and Smith has proven that over and over. The catch late against Ballard was a thing of beauty that in all reality could/should have been an interception. Some kids have it, some do not. BTW, saying Blackwell's arm is stronger than Lanter no knock at all on Lanter. It was amazing the velocity with minimal effort that Blackwell got on his passes. At this level, I would take Lanter and his accuracy. HHS made it to the states semis in WV last year and I would predict about the same last year. Prayers for the Jackson kid from HHS who broke his leg.
