There is no way, no way, that June Buchanan has 3 Div I players. They will be lucky to make it to Div III. Come on....I will admit they have talent, but they do not have Div I talent. Boy, I can't wait to see them just rip right through the 14th region...:irked:

I think a lot of people need to get out of the mountains and head to a game in Lexington and Louisville, to watch a real basketball game. Then they will see for themselves some true Div 1 prospects.

You would be suprised just how many people have been out of the mountains [duh] and how many teams have played against City schools. I am not saying anybody has a D1 player. But we have watched and even played a few big schools.

Alot of our mountain kids play AAU all summer and they don't just travel to Lexingtin and Louisville, they travel all over the country. They have played against some of the best players in the country. I've see boys names ranked high and I know we have played against them and beat them. I know school teams are different, and more exciting but the mountain boys are not a bunch that needs to go to the city to see a good ball game.

Some do, some may not. I just think that the talent level is a lot better in the cities. That is just one man's opinion...nothing to down grade anyone. I think people get carried away, especially when they start talking about DI players.

I know you are right on that. Takes an exceptional player to play D1. They have more kids to choose from in the cities.

The thing I love about basketball in the mountains is how the people get into it so much. It is an awesome enviroment to be in, especially in a game between two big rivals...ex..Owsley vs Lee. People get crazy over basketball. I actually like to watch the fans reactions. I'll tell you this, the referee's do not make even close to enough money for calling games. They get talked to pretty bad sometimes.

Agreed, this thread is about "top D1 prospects in in the 14th", not " the kids who are definately going to a D1 College on a basketball scholarship." Only time will tell. Like the Ben Bowling years, great player but it takes more than talent to get you there, maybe JBS does have the best prospects in most pples eyes , maybe not. Its the college coach's oppinion, his spots that needs to be filled and who ya know. Cant wait to see whos right:cool:
