  1. Deion throws up another 4-8/5-7 this year and no one has to worry about that.
  2. There's an alum with Head Coaching experience, teaching creds and a passion for the school. The first call if I'm the AD needs to be Sam Elsbernd. He's battle tested and earned this chance, and would do great!
  3. The bottom line is the lines have to be drawn somewhere. I know we have a lot of 8th, 9th, and 10th region traditionalist out there. Sometimes this stuff happens, but the 9th region isn't going to have 24-25 teams in it.
  4. Is this because of when the game is being played (Thursday night, last game, during UK game) or because of wanting them in the same region?
  5. That won't ever happen for two reasons: Girls state tourney starts tomorrow Have to keep the cash cow away from the SEC Tourney dates. That is the reason for the W-TH-M-TU format for boys games (in most regions).
  6. I think this is why some people still think the tournament should be in the high schools. You don't pay to park, you aren't paying $5 for a soda or popcorn. No "fees" on tickets. NKU is a great arena and is much more comfortable for everyone, but you are paying stadium prices there.
  7. There needs to be more that factors into classifying teams than boys in school. The above example of Grant County is a good start. “good old days” don’t exist anymore. Times are different. Every class has 5ish teams that are actually in the running for a state title.
  8. Was having a talk with a friend of mine the other day about this and he made the comment of just how expensive it is to take a family to a regional tournament game. He made a good point. It’s like going to the movies. The tickets are reasonable, but after that it’s not. No one wants to pay concert and college game prices for concessions and parking. The ninth region has had more success in the state tourney since moving the tournament to NKU, but I’ve found the atmosphere to be pretty weak. Some of the games there just seem lifeless.
  9. I seen where part of the bracket is posted. Anyone with ties to the 15th Region have any idea what is going on/how this is going to work?
  10. On paper? No. But the closest school in 2aD5 to a school in 2AD6 is at minimum a 2.5 hour bus ride.
  11. I'm almost tempted to say Cincinnati post-Huggins. From 91-05 they were Cincinnati's team (more so than either of the professional teams) and were nationally known and respected. The level of talent that came thru UC during that era hasn't been matched since. They had a couple good teams under Cronin, but nothing close to what Huggins had. I like Miller and think he may be able to make them a tourney team again, hopefully consistently, but I'm not sure the ceiling is going to be much higher than that. People will mention the Big 12, but I am of the belief that the basketball program is not the reason they are in that league.
  12. I’ve always liked the idea of the principal and athletic director having other faculty members and/or other coaches on a committee. I’ve never understood why current parents are on them. I just find it hard to believe it is all common interests.
  13. I'd say Vegas is one place where the term "historical landmark" doesn't mean anything. If the new place can make more money, it's coming down.
