To be fair, Elliott's best player (a guard, can't remember the name) was playing with a sprained ankle. But I, too, was a little disappointed after seeing some posters hype them up so much.

 

They made it to Rupp - where was Paintsville?

Tigers were home.:banana:

Probably still celebrating the win over Elliott ...

It's hard to be 6'"5 & 220 in the 8th grade ...... Can you name one ??

How about 6-8 and 6-9 8th graders. I saw a lot of them at the National AAU Tournament in Orlando this past week .

I see some 6-8 but not 6-8 & 220-245 .....

They might be listed as 8th grade , but age wise I doubt they are 14 or 15 maybe a 16 or 17 year old. I have seen those big guys at nationals also. But I don't take them for real.

I did not say that they needed a 6'5" 220 lbs 8th grader. I am just saying they need some one who isnt affraid to be physical inside that has some size to back it up. I wouldnt care if he is a senior. They can play physical but they do not have the big body( but they definitely do have the heart) that can play 30 minutes a game. I think that Timmy knipp is great the way he is. I am not saying he needs to change. His role on the team is not to be a big body and bang with the big boys.

Personally I think timmy can help out a lot inside, and did last season! He had lot's of rebounds and avgd about three block's a game off the bench. I will agree weight help's, but I knew a 6-6 player in high school avgd over 20and 10 board's a game. He weighed 165!!!! I also have seen legit age eighth graders that were 6-5, 200lb, and one legit eighth grader that was 6-11 and 300. Thats really all irrelevant because Elliott dont have one(6-5, 220) but they do fine with their 6-6, ??? eighth grader and the rest of their little short feller's!!!!

Elliott is hard to contend with due to the Faulkner's level of competitiveness. Ethan is the heart and soul of the team as he goes they go.

I agree

I think he gets alot of help by other players on the team. They all have heart and that makes up for there lack of Size.:thumb:

Elliott has always had players with some talent and ability but Ethan takes them to another level. He will make some college coach a happy camper.
