You need to research Kentucky Basketball before making this statement.

Why? He left.....I don't believe he was terminated from the article.

You guys need to realize that Tim is in the Kentucky Teachers Retirement System. The pension is substantial. Boone County pays more than the diocese and his extra duty pay is probably very good compared to CCH. His extra duty pay also figures into his retirement. This is a HS basketball job.....not major college. He has been at Cooper since it opened I believe so I would imagine financially he might take a hit.

Missed that one!

I believe he was also head coach at Campbell County before Aric Russell.

All it does is allow for NIL money. Perhaps they can go somewhere and showcase their talent, but bottom line it's about $$$$s.

At 34 years in KTRS you earn about as much as you do working, potentially a little more. No retirement, state tax, etc. Many people just have had enough fun by then lol. Corbin lost a few really good players and I would imagine at this point he knows in his heart it's time. Personally I really respect that decision. Trust me, you know.

M-O-N-E-Y!!

David Henley is a great guy. First met him when he played in the All A Classic for Carlisle County when the tournament was held in NKY. They beat Bellevue in the finals and lost in OT( maybe two) to Henry Clay in the finals of the State Tournament. Played for the legendary Craynor Slone. He did a fantastic job at Holmes, before moving to North Oldham and then Eastern. Always enjoyed bumping into Dave and catching up. Enjoy your retirement sir!

Be interesting to hear your take on their "philosophical differences". I had a superintendent many years ago tell me that quite often the devil you know is a lot better than the one you don't know. Cooper is arguably one of the three or four best jobs in NKY. I honestly don't think that's the same case at Dixie. Apparently he wasn't a good fit for Conner either.

That's great! One year I looked at a home box score and their attendance was 339. NKU led the Horizon in men's and women's a couple seasons ago at around 3900 and 1200.

Hopefully they will begin to generate some fan interest. Their crowds are usually rather sparse. I'm being nice.

I'd think after the run of talent and success that Holthaus has had he knows it will be a while before that happens again in a very good district. I think Sullivan may never have been a serious candidate.

Fredrick has been playing college basketball for a long time. I know he's had some injuries, but he's been out of HS maybe 7 years???

Why? Just because he graduated from there?He knows it's a mess. Why leave a program that you built from scratch to try and fix it?
