Robertson County All A Rings
JimmyV replied to One Great Scorer's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Good for them! There are colleges that get rings for winning their conference, wouldn't that be equal to winning a regional championship? Congrats Robertson Co. -
Way, way, way too early 2016-17 10th Region Rankings

I did not see Harrison Co mentioned in the list of teams above. What's their outlook? -
Clay County hires Glenn Gray
JimmyV replied to All State Baseball's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
I agree with Wireman. How many regional championships did Marcum win? Weren't they in the Sweet 16 as recently as 2015 or am I mistaken? Being from the Keith era, Marcum seemed to really embrace that history and try to let his players know the tradition that has been laid before they were even born. I liked that he brought Bobby Keith to the bench a few years ago at the State Tourney. He seemed to do a great job. That's just an outsiders perspective. -
Do any KY high schools use "Drones" to film practice?
JimmyV replied to theguru's topic in KY Football (High School)
One of the shows on ESPN, Outside the Lines or E:60, did a story on the use of drones in Texas High School Football. (I believe it was last fall when it aired). Some of the schools there were using them to film practice and games. As a result of a few schools doing it, the use of them was spreading. It was an interesting story to watch. -
Will pay to participate kill high school sports?
JimmyV replied to newarkcatholicfan's topic in KY Football (High School)
Does anybody have specific $ amounts that some schools charge? Is the discussion about paying money to play a sport or is it paying for things like spirit packs that players receive? I have heard of some schools charging a fee of say $50 to play. That fee covers every sport. If you play football, basketball, & baseball then that $50 is a onetime fee that covers all sports that you play. That does exclude sweats or anything extra. I assume there are schools that charge a certain amount to play football, another amount for basketball, and another amount for baseball. Do most schools have players pay for their own spirit packs (sweatshirt, t-shirt, shorts etc)? -
Scott County Picks Up Elite Transfer
JimmyV replied to Clyde's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
If the kid from Perry Central last year can be ruled eligible after moving from Sheldon Clark to Perry Co., after school began because his coach got the head coaching job there, then this kid should have no trouble being eligible. If you look at other threads, there are supposedly kids coming from everywhere to attend Cordia High School. I think some people will want to say this isn't fair, simply because its Scott Co. and they are a high profile program. -
Does Cordia play tomorrow at KBA? I would like to see them in action..

Any word on who is interviewing for this job.

Why would the administration have mailed it in if it were Bob Eades? I think it would be good for Bourbon. He's not trying to make a name for himself, he's not using it as a stepping stone. I don't think Eades would be a bad choice at all. He certainly knows the game. If the age factor is an excuse, do you think an up and coming young coach would stay at Bourbon more than 3 years? They need some stability. This is just an outsiders perspective.

Rumor is, and once again just rumor, that this was done so Terence Brooks would come and coach, possibly already been offered the job. Once again that is hear say and I am proclaiming it as hear say. He has not had the success perhaps he thought he would at Berea and he still works in Paris. Paris improved as the season went on. Probably one of the youngest lineups in the state and nearly beat Clark in the district. I don't think the coach would voluntarily leave with what's coming through there.

I agree that it is not a true class "A" tourney. Bishop Brossart is 2A in football. They win the 10th every year. As Mustsang mentioned a school like Knott who is 3A in football, is going to be loaded next year. Doesn't New Cath play 2A football as well? Some might argue that it might not make a difference but it does. They should rename the tournament. Take out the name All "A". If schools with larger numbers are allowed to participate then rename it something that is more suitable for the make-up of the tourney. What that would be I don't know.

Paris 86 Bourbon County 77
JimmyV replied to gold sunrise's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Paris was lead in scoring by Koebe Garrard with 35 and Cameron Downey with 30 pts. -
If I were those three I would never vote for it. They have a better shot of making the region with a blind draw..

Paris vs. Montgomery County (12/3)
JimmyV replied to mcraycraft's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
The Paris freshmen beat Harrison's freshmen by 29 on Saturday and beat Bourbon's freshmen by 40 on Saturday also.
