The top 10 Players in Kentucky in your opinion?

Featured Replies

You see different Ratings throughout the pre-season and no one ever seems to agree. Here's your chance to post your top ten players in the state..You can base it on Potential, statistics, ability, size, or whatever. I know alot of you have alot of Knowledge of players throughout the state by reading some of your post. Instead of "bashing" some ones opinion on this thread just post your own list. I look foward to reading these, should be really interesting. I'll post my list later after doing a little thinking and some research.

That's a pretty decent list. I still don't think Landon Slone is top 10 in the state, but still a good list.

Yes those are good picks unfortunately Haddix is attending a prep school in Las Vegas.
Thanks BE, not easy keeping up with all the grades, players and names.

 

I'm sure I misspelled several also.

I real sure your list will change after you see Scotty play!

No problem, but Las Vegas got a very good player.

That is a pretty decent list also. I would take Wade from Shelby County out though. I think he is good, but not good enough for top 10 in the state.

The guard from PRP is Adam Decker. Also, Ballou from Adair County is a sophomore, and Doss star Jeff Brooks is a senior and probably in the top 1 or 2 in terms of potential.

 

Good list though :thumb:

Bolus had Brooks rated #1 I belive. I think he only had him rated that based on potential like you said. I think he only averaged around 9ppg last season, but has alot of upside. He's for sure a D-I prospect..Speaking of PRP, it seemsd like they always produce great guards for as long as I can remember.

 

The Player who I believe is overlooked the most is Keith Price from Casey County. He's around 6'9 and seems to be under the Radar but could very well be the top prospect in Kentucky in the senior class.. He is just as good if not better than Brooks or Wade but is less focused on than those guys because of his team. Speking of potential he's probabily one of the top 3 big men in kentucky IMO, he just seems to be very underrated. He probabily isnt as athletic as these guys but stronger. But he's not a bad athlete and pretty good fundamentally. I think Ballou could be Great and could grow even larger, if he develops he could be one of the best player to come out of Kentucky in Quiet some time.

Strike3...Just a few general questions...

 

Matt Morgan is now back in Virginia or Maryland his home state, not in Kentucky.

 

Is Wade even the best senior on his high school team?

 

Is Ballou even the top player on Adair's team?

 

Haddix is already in Vegas (as already mentioned in this thread).

 

Why is Austin Hill not listed?

 

Andre Miller is better than Matt Walls?

 

Why is a player like Jaron Jones who shot nearly less than 30% from the field listed? I saw him play two games where he went 1 for 12 and another where he went 2 for 11.

 

BGP has a lot of 16th Region posters that has explained Vanhoose's game quite a few times, what part of Vanhoose's game made you leave him off your list? He is signed for Evansville at the D1 level.

 

What is the reason for Jeremy Anderson being left off?

 

East-Bank...

 

Just a quick question...who was the last great guard for PRP?
