SugarDaddy Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 :fire:Jealousy and Spite are the reasons for moving the 10th Regional tournament from Mason County. Why would any one begin to think Montgomery County would want anyones advice on managing the games. They have the best of everything including the pots in the bathrooms. Im sure Sunny should realize they also have several experts on running tournaments there. Home court advantages does not mean a thing unless you have good players. It took Mason County 20 years to make it to the state tournament with their big home court advantage. Explain that. :fight: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coacharn21 Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 This could probably all be settled by holding the tourney at St. Pat, Augusta, or Silver Grove! HA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint4 Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 This could probably all be settled by holding the tourney at St. Pat, Augusta, or Silver Grove! HA! If you combined the seating in those 3 gyms you still would not have enough room.:lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDE Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 What are the capacities of each gym? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coacharn21 Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 If you combined the seating in those 3 gyms you still would not have enough room.:lol: Alright then let's take it out to the playground and have people bring lawn chairs. No advantages there. If it gets dark parents can pull their cars up and turn on their headlights. But seriously, couldn't the tourney be taken to another region so you could have true neutrality or is that too hard? The set up of these tournaments are ridiculous anyway with homecourt advantages and no seeding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

el gato Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Jealousy and spite alive in the 10th region? I can't argue with that....seems like everyone in the 10th region outside of Mt. Sterling and Winchester are jealous of Montgomery County for getting to host this year. :sssh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gchs_uk9 Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I know there is a great deal of history and tradition involved, but couldn't the region just let each district host in a gym of their choice? For example, but not limited to, because I'm not familiar with capacities in some places: Year 1 - 37th District - Northern Kentucky University Year 2 - 38th District - Harrison County Year 3 - 39th District - Mason County Fieldhouse Year 4 - 40th District - Montgomery County If more than one school per district has a big gymnasium, then one year School A can host and when the rotation returns, School B can host. I don't understand the size argument because the Fieldhouse is huge and they have split sessions in the region. Why not just let every district host? Is that too simple?

HSBallFan78 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Why not do like the 11th (EKU) and have it a neutral site? What about NKU or Morehead? Regardless of who has the biggest gym, it doesn't seem fair that the same team has hosted the regional at their home gym for 39 of the last 40 years. Just my opinion....

cshs81 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I'm not part of the 10th region, but if I were, I'd be embarrassed by all of this crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
