The reasons that I think that Pendleton County will finish higher than 7th is because of coaching, team experience, and solid players.

 

The coaching staff at PC has been there for 5 years now. The kids have bought in to a great system(The results explain that).

 

Team Experience. I don't mean players with big-game varsity experience, I mean the team as a whole. Players who will play varsity in the 06-07 season were on two teams that went a combined 57-9 the past two years. This success will lead to a solid team this year.

 

Solid Players. The JV team finished around .500 and they will surround themselves around a potential all-region player.

 

With this said, I think they will finish the season higher than .500 and higher than 7th in the region.

 

Agreed, plus unless my memory fails me (which occurs sometimes), this JV team with Belcher only lost about 2-3 games in the 2004-2005 season.

 

Regardless, Mason will ride the top, PC should ride around 5th in the region.

Why I disagree with you:

 

Coaching--Buddy's great, but will he be back?? His results are partly a product of a couple of great classes and a very important, timely transfer who tranformed their team.

 

Experience--Other than Kane, where's the experience?? Buddy's 5-6 man rotation, even with large leads may come back to haunt next year and beyond.

 

Solid Players--Hard to guage players with little or no varsity experience, so I've got to look to the JV team for answers; and they're not very pretty. An unimpressive team with a medicore record against a less than challenging schedule!!

 

Depending on their schedule (I doubt it'll be near the last couple years' quality), .500 may be a stretch. Still expect them to win a lackluster district and make an early regional exit!! Also expect to see some paybacks for the last couple years, as some teams may remember seeing Elliott, Mains, Belcher, Verax, etc. still in 30 point games in the 4th quarter!!

1) When I said Coaching, I wasn't specifically talking about only Coach Biggs. If Coach Biggs does not return(and I hope that he does), this will most definitely leave the head coaching job available for 6th year assistant Chad Simms. Since Coach Simms came from Mason County along with Biggs, PC will run the same exact system. Not to mention that two other assistants that have been apart of the success will return along with Simms(if this does happen). These two coaches are former player Brad Cox and Freshman coach Michael Miller.

 

2) Like I said in the previous post I am not talking about individual experience, I am talking about building on a great two year run with solid players who were involved in the practices everyday. Belcher along with Jeremy Mudd, Abram Crozier and Kyle Feeback will provide the young team with energy to try to continue winning.

 

3) When you say that I am referring to Varsity potential based on JV experience, yes I did. I said that that during the 06-07 season, PC will finish higher than 7th based on solid JV players and one varsity starter. It's not like I said that they were going to win the whole region. If I remember correctly, you made some posts last spring, summer and fall saying that Bishop Brossart was going to win the 10th region because they had an undefeated JV team. For one, that definitely did not happen and two, I think that Brossart should just focus on beating Pendleton for the first time in six tries.

Please show me where I predicted Brossart winning the 10th?????????? I promise you that I predicted Pendleton winning the 10th in every thread on the subject!!!! I thought Brossart would be anywhere from 2nd-4th last year, based on having to replace 7 seniors; albiet with an undefeated (A fact that seems to facinate the PC faithful????) JV team. It's not easy to replace classes like Brossart's '06 class, as you're about to find out.

 

Regarding "individual experience", what other kind is there?? Are you saying because the incoming juniors and seniors other than Belcher, sat and watched their fine teams the last couple of years; this will prepare them for varsity competition?? :confused: :confused:

 

On the last matter, I'm sure BB will show up and try to beat the "experienced" Cats when the opportunity arises!! Time will tell??

I think Brossart will be ahead of Pendleton this time

This website is called bluegrasspreps.com. It is a forum about Kentucky High School basketball. Panther said that Pendleton County would finish 7th next year in the 10th. I disagreed with him and said I think they will finish higher. That is just my opinion. I'm sorry if this made anyone angry.

Outside the top 2 maybe 3 or 4 its really anybodies game. I think the parody in the region will be even greater next year then it was this year. You could really see about 12 teams challenge for a top 5 or 6 spot.

I do have the Cats at 7th but I think they could be as high as 5th or as low as 10th.
