Feel sorry for the rest of the East Jessamine basketball team for what there two best ball players did if the story is true.

Can't wait for the matchup Monday night between the Pats and Southwestern.

What happened??

What happened??

 

Word on the street is that they missed practice and were suspended from the game.

Surely there is more behind it.

Regarding that East Jessamine's two starting guards did not play in last night's game -

 

1. It is a shame that their teammates, coaches, classmates, school & fans were let down by this occurrence at such a horrific time. Your team is playing in the post-season to reach some of the goals all teams have at the beginning of each season and this takes place.

2. From what I have previously seen the fact that there might be discipline problems is not a shock. The shame is that the situation was not addressed sufficiently prior to this late in the season.

 

My heart goes out to all of the East Jessamine supporters. Hopefully this is a step towards building a stronger program in the upcoming season. Players need to be made to understand what is expected of them and if they're unable to learn & adjust to what is expected of them, they should move on to other activities - hopefully something in which they don't leave their teammates feeling let down and betrayed.

 

Like a great many of the teams in the 12th Region, the Jaguars return all of their players so their future could be extremely bright if issues such as this are addressed in full.

 

Congratulations to the Patriots on their win. It should be an outstanding semi-final contest between they and Southwestern Monday night.

Throughout this year I kept telling myself, (and others) that Lincoln wasn't as good as we all thought...but right now they are coming on hot and could be the one to knock off Wayne if they can get by a good SW team. Tickets for these games should be on ticketmaster for how good of games they will be.

The semis and finals both should be jam-packed, but first we have the little matter of two first round games to be played tonight, Boyle vs. West Jessamine and Wayne vs. Casey. I'd say that those four Coaches :down: are spending most of their time worrying about those games right now .

 

But I do agree, the potential for a rocking gym :taz: exists for both Monday and Tuesday. All of the schools most likely to be participating in those games will bring huge numbers of fans :clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap: which will make for a great atmosphere and create memories for lots of people for years to come.

Could be but you have to respect a coach who takes such a stand at a moment like this. Whatever happened I hope both kids learned a valuable lesson and grow from it. Both have too much talent.

I 100% agree!! Very respectable decision by the head coach. No matter who you are or what you've done, rules are rules.

Much credit to coaches who make their players abide by the rules! I don't care who you are, break the rules you deserve to be on the bench! There are some coaches that would have not did that!

12th region is loaded with talent...but I think the most important thing when looking at players is the whole package they present..good academic, good character, and a great role model is way more important than just being able to play basketball. So with that being said, how many of these kids fit all those qualifications...I can only think of a few.

^^^^^^That!
