I agree Rice would be my choice of bigs. Think he's ranked in the top 30 best big men in ky including all classes 2015-2018. Think he would have been in top 10 if he had got his hands on the ball more at north laurel. It's not good to see a great player like him with an high ceiling not be used.

I agree, GoHardITP! I don't like to see teams use a big man just as a body. I've seen them loose interest just like you say. My philosophy is basketball should be played "inside" then "out". Maybe I'm old school.

Tallest Teams in the state

With a line up like that, why is their record not better? -
Most guards have not been taught to pass and use their big men. Glad to hear Boone County knows how to get it done.

What are some high schools/coaches who are best utilizing their BIG men?

Clay County 70 North Laurel 65

I hear north lives by the 3 and dies by it cause they sure don't have any other game plan for winning. -
article Inside the 13th Region (1/12/15)
Headhunter replied to Les's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
I agree Les, ONE assist! That's crazy. I know all their bigs haven't been shooting any threes, nor are they trying to work the ball inside to their bigs (Rice and Asher) and take advantage of their size down low. I'm like you scratching my head on this one. If the coach doesn't get hold of this team and take a few notes from the South Laurel play book for "assists and big man" they will have a disappointing season. -
Ref tend to do that a lot. Sometimes they are blowing their whistle before anything foul is even committed. This tends to happen with big players. Refs automatically think when a player FLOPS that it's a foul on the big man.

North Laurel at South Laurel predictions
Headhunter replied to ky playmaker's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
The TRUTH from the game last night is: Broughton didn't get 30, Rice didn't foul out and played his best game of the season. North shot around 28% from the field, most of which was 3 pointers. Rice played against the best competition in the nation for the Ky Gators (located here in Louisville) and never got in foul trouble. I think it's a case where he's playing in a region that is not use to seeing a BIG man play that actually has some good moves. Where as in the larger regions up north the refs are use to seeing the bigs play each and every night. -

Not using Rice may hurt them. Especially if they shut down Broughton and Asher. If they're. It practicing their inside game it will be hard to pull it off when they do need it/Rice. -

We'll if thats all Rice is averaging then North had no inside game. Are they not using him on offense? When playing with the Gators from Louisville he always averaged a double double. -

Rice has been getting fouls called on him. It seems like he can't move without getting one called. Heard he had two the other night in less than 2:00 mins in first quarter. Seems like they don't want the big boy to play. -

Got to watch their big man who I hear is averaging around 20 a game. This is a high average for. Big man so he must get the ball thrown into him a lot. At least they'll know where the ball is going and be able to defend it. -
Seems like that everywhere. Glad to hear another side of the story. Thanks.
