Never said that he wasn't legit. I very much like his game, but there's a difference in the level of competition. He needs to learn how to step it up when they need him, which is against tougher competition. They didn't need him against Beechwood, and that makes it a heck of a lot easier to let the game come to you.

 

 

I'd say they needed him against Beechwood. Can't remember how many points he logged but I think it was 20 to 24. And they did not beat Beechwood by more than that. Take away his big game and who knows.

 

I agree that he needs to step up against the tough competition he will face.

That team there last year did played on Saturday at Rupp. They lost to the state champs in which Rice had twenty six. Two 9th region championship and a state semi later people are still ripping them. That was one of the best classes Holmes has had in along time.

 

I was not ripping that team and agree that they were one of the best classes to come out of Holmes but if you will remeber they should have gone three straight years but after their great Sophmore run they became team turmoil their Junior year, lost one of the players for the year to suspension, and did not go back to Rupp until their Senior year and were great (could of been a three peat 9th region champ). The point I was trying to make was that it would be a shame for this group to let down after last years success and not reliaze their potential and to miss being a very special bunch of kids that could leave their mark on NKY history as a possible State Champ.

How did the big guy do for Station?

Holmes will be fine as it is early. The more they play and play together all the time the better they will get. Any team from Lexington is not a layover and Station was ranked in top 20 in state. I dont see why people are saying overrated its not like they lost to a bad team. Once this Holmes team gets rolling i will take them against anyone in the state!:thumb:
