frankdracman23 Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 Much talk of the NCC frontcourt being too tall for Holmes in the game from the BOKC. So lets list all the "bigs" in NKY history. Maybe we can determine the tallest from each school. I'll start: Ryle: Justin Doellman 6'9" Highlands: Muntis 6'10" Brossart: Can't remember the name but didn't they have a nearly 7 footer? Latin: Brian O'Conner 6'9"
Clyde Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 Dixie had Stephen Mays who was 7'0. I'm told CCH once had a 6'10 kid.
mexitucky Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 My Dad said that the NewCath team of '66 had a 7 footer? Can someone verify that?
dd734 Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 My Dad said that the NewCath team of '66 had a 7 footer? Can someone verify that? Wouldn't that be Dave Cowens of Boston Celtics Fame he's referring to? He wasn't 7' though
uk#1fan Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 SK biggest kids to play was probably. 6'8 Hurd 6'7 Gibson 6'7 Brock
frankdracman23 Posted February 15, 2014 Author Posted February 15, 2014 Wouldn't that be Dave Cowens of Boston Celtics Fame he's referring to? He wasn't 7' though Cowens at 6'8" was the leading rebounder on the 66 team. Not sure who a 7 footer would be. Must not have played much.
Clyde Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 Ludlow had a 6'9 kid a few years ago. Dan Penick
mexitucky Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 Cowens at 6'8" was the leading rebounder on the 66 team. Not sure who a 7 footer would be. Must not have played much. Not Cowens, he said guy came off of the bench.
RSkinner Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 Mayes kid I believe is only 7 footer NKY has had... Rhoden I believe grew to 7 feet after he graduated from Brossart. Had a buddy that tried to help him with some workouts and get him a chance to play in junior college, but it didn't work out.
RSkinner Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 Tim Volpenhein from Holy Cross was listed at 7 feet when he played at Eastern Kentucky, but I'm pretty sure he wasn't that big in high school (close)...

B-Ball-fan Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 Ross Neltner from Highlands was around 6'9" I believe.
