I feel like a 70 year old woman sharing the gossip but that is what happens after a week at the Roy. I'm hearing Anderson may get their kid back that left last year.

I believe the program sends him to a different school every year. Since he is technically a foreign exchange student, I'm not sure what kind of say he has in this. He played at a school in Indiana last year. He does have family ties to Grant County so hopefully they figure out some way to get him to stay for his senior year.

I don't think Fox is a legitimate foreign exchange student. He did not go through an exchange agency. Snottie should be able to clear this up.

South will follow the blue print Simpson has been using - graduate a majority of you playing time and bring in the next senior class. Next year he will have Young back to be the nucleus with Hicks, Beard, Vincent, Hubrich, Mickel as Seniors. Morrison will be a Sophomore. Expect a few Juniors off JV team and he usually brings one Freshman up. I think it will be Beard, Hicks, Morrison, Young and one more to round out the starting 5. Except for Beard they will be between 6'2" and 6' 5" and will shot the three well. Will be chasing OC in 29th next year.

May be some transfers that will make things interesting.

Did Fries play JV this year?

Will there be a mass-exodus of talent before summers end, as has seemingly been the case in recent years?

Talent is there to win, by feel like I say that every year. Losing Hawkins will be a BIG loss. But, look for Kelch to dominate the post next year!

How good will the Niece kid be?

I heard he turns 19 next month and already ruled eligible. Not sure how that is possible. Would be crazy to think next year late Feb early march you could have someone almost 20 playing high school basketball.

He probably turns 18, Beau Hoge turned 18 his JR yr at Highlands in April and graduated as a 19 yr old. There is No way a kid can be eligible to play sports and walk down the aisle 20 yrs old.
