While I frequently browse coacht, I have never commented but thought I would add my two cents here. Van Buren should be considered the front runner, however I did see where they lost to Clay and Jackson county by 30 points each. If they play like they did against those teams Marion just might sneak up on them. I agree with the rest of you that it is between those two teams with Van Buren having a slight edge over Marion. But with Marion having the reigning district player of the year and the potential for VB to play as badly as they did early in the season its anybody's guess.
