Looks like Eastern has lost a stud this upcoming season.

 

 

 

 

Funny, that Twitter reads like he's playing college ball instead of hs.

Realreason called this back in March. Good call. Of course, still plenty of time for more players to come or go.

thanks, sometimes the chatter is true. This team is going to be loaded. Anthony Wales, Tony Rogers, Ahmad Price at the guards. They also have size in a 6'6" kid with length who's name escapes me and Clint Wickliffe inside. A nice guard also is Kobie Stanton to come off the bench. Add Chance at 6' 5" into this mix and they have some REAL talent on the floor. It will be interesting to see the chemistry, and sharing of the ball. Remember they already lost one of the top 5 sophomores last year when Trey Hill transferred to PRP. Not sure of the situation that caused that, but might be an indication of too much talent and only one ball on the court.

 

As a side note, I love Wales and he is going to be really good, but I think the sleeper on this team is going to be Rogers. I get a chance to see both of them workout often and they are great, hard working, talented kids.

 

Glad we are moving to the Richmond area and my son wont have to take that thumping from them this year on the court.:isurrender::lol2:

Thought the exact same thing. Personally I don't think it's a real smart move for a hs kid to do this sort of thing (this sort of message on twitter), and there are some obvious reasons for that.

Not enough minutes and headlines for everyone on that team, look for early season greatness, season ending with a fissile out??

Completely agree with the post above. Not enough shots to go around for those kids. I don't think he helps them.

How/why are kids allowed to move around like this? Why can't the KHSAA just say you pick a school and stay there for 4 years unless it's a legitimate transfer (move)?

In Louisville it can be sort of a mess because of how they have set up the school areas. My guess is that Chance decided to go to Eastern his Freshman year and petitioned to go there after 8th grade and was accepted. I think he lives in the Fern Creek area and Fern Creek is his home school so he can transfer back to it. Sort of what happened to Trey Hill when he went from Fern Creek to PRP last year, PRP was his home school. It defiantly can be a mess here in Louisville, and there does tend to be a lot of moving around.

 

That being said, he is a good player, but I really wonder about the chemistry of the team with all of the talent they have. So far in summer ball, they have looked really good and as long as Anthony Wales is running the team, they are in very good hands. Time will tell.

I'm just saying...If you choose to attend a school that's not your "home" school and it's approved by KHSAA, I'm fine with it. But it should be that you play all your H.S. years there unless you make a physical move. No, "I want to finish my career at XYZ school". Stick with where you started.

He's now going prep school route in WV.

I thought he held offers during the season but I can see his path is going to be well traveled. Plus I couldn't find any information about Buckley Prep.
