Basketball season for 2014/2015 should provide another exciting year. What should we expect from Taylor County Remember, please be constructive.

I don't know how "constructive" this will sound, but I'm hearing the KHSAA has been snooping around in Campbellsville about the Cardinals' "construction" efforts.

Interesting, any details as to why?

After Sloan coming with the coach last year, Taylor County now has Thomas Nelson's top returning player, a transfer from Louisville Ballard and a foreign exchange kid/African who just so happens to be a pretty good basketball player.

 

Four transfers in two years, to a program/area not known for its transient lifestyle or abundant jobs.

 

Also interesting that Taylor was expected to be down after losing Wigginton and another starter (probably the team's 2nd/3rd best athlete) and then lo and behold, the cupboard is stocked instantly.

 

Thomas Nelson was kind of like that last year, as only one or two in the top six had lived in Nelson County more than 3 years (Dixson 1, Dixson 2, Youngman, Canadian). But now Thomas Nelson has hired a young coach with ties to the area, so I doubt it continues.

 

It's interesting that places this has happened recently (Cordia's rash of transfers, Thomas Nelson's run of transfers and now Taylor) are with coaches who DO NOT have ties to the area.

 

Yet, when kids -- especially ones who just happen to play basketball, because those three schools aren't getting transfer after transfer in any other sport remotely close like they have in basketball -- start showing up in droves, it's all "by the book" and "coincidental."

 

Um. OK.

Cam Morgeson showed up on the ineligible list with KHSAA. Not sure what his current schooling status is.

Glad to see that Taylor County will be playing in the King of the Bluegrass. Will be interesting to see how they do.

Taylor County players David Sloan and Brandon Berry were visited by Morehead State at the school.

And who they have.
