Correct.  Bluegrass United's best player.  Not sure of the rules as far as eligibility, or if there are any rules for that matter anymore. ?

It was my understanding that they were very careful about making sure he was eligible.  They held up on him until they received clearance from the KHSAA.  His name is Jeremiah Stiefel.  He's 6-4", 185 and a good athlete.  

Regarding eligibility.  I made a list a few days ago of just the players I know of in a handful of schools in the 12th region who've transferred for sports (football and basketball) in the last few years.  I counted 25 and that only includes 2 girls and I didn't count the ones who made the move in middle school.  That absolutely didn't happen in the past.  There were some schools that held back several of their promising 8th graders so they'd be more mature as seniors but the only transfers I was aware of involved a real change of address.

Yes, the Cats Pause has him listed as the #1 player in their magazine.  Him being a Junior, tells me this is probably strategic for next season when some impact guys graduate and they don't have an overseas kid I'm aware of waiting in the wings like years past.

Cats Pause has a write up on Bluegrass United? Are they a KHSAA member? If so, what region?

 

And if not, there should be zero issues with eligibility anyway.

They aren't KHSAA but I think there are some rules that apply if they play KHSAA schools.  They played some KHSAA schools like Lafayette, Garrard County, and Danville.  That's why DCA was taking their time to make sure everything was OK.

They do a write up section on the Homeschool league now (right after HS section).

Maybe Dennis Johnson and Julius Yeast at Harrodsburg in the mid- to late-1990s.

How tall were the Hanson brothers at Pulaski County when they were all 3 there?  I know Reggie was 6'8", but I can't remember how tall Arthur and Donald were.  Billy Bob Hardy was also on their roster at the same time.  It seems like he was around 6'7".

I played against them in the dirt bowl league they had in the summer at that time.  Art was in the 6-6 range and Don was about 6-2 or so the best I remember.  As far as skill goes Don was the best of the bunch.
