It really is a great story. Regardless of how Holmes does, I will be watching Elliott in Rupp. If they play in the semis, at least I'll know I have someone to root for in the Final for the second straight year.

I have said it before about how I truly have enjoyed watching these fine young men play at the state tournament the past two yrs and hope to see them again this year. If Holmes does gets beat, I will definitely root for Elliott to win the state tournament.

 

You and me both. I'll be rooting for those Lions to win it all if Holmes can't.

 

I have a new appreciation for Dale Ferguson after reading this story, as well. The time and work he has put in with not only his son Jonathon, but also Ethan and Evan is truly a great thing. To him, I'd like to give a big :thumb:

 

BTW, loved his quote regarding the store he runs..."If we don't have it, we'll get it...if we can't get it, you probably don't need it.." :lol:

Our very own Dale Ferguson is a song writer.....

 

I gave up a chance at a career in Nashville so I could spend my time with my

Family(Sheila, Ferg, Shae, Cheyenna) and I wouldn't change that decision for all the fame or money in the world!!!!!!!!!!:ylsuper:

Great article.

Man that's been a while:laugh:

What a fantastic article about a great bunch of boys. You all deserve all our thanks for a great ride, just hope it doesn't end until Saturday morning at Rupp.:dancingpa:dancingpa:dancingpa:dancingpa

Great article. I'd love to see the boys from Elliot win this year. They've got work to do but it's by no means unattainable.

And still a great story when The Courier-Journal's C. Ray Hall wrote it - first, by the way - in January!

No not at all. After reading the article, I've come to realize I was maybe a bit too hard on this group and some of their fans. Now that I understand where everyone is coming from, I'm right there with you guys. I think people have to truly understand the story behind all of the success to actually appreciate it as much as you guys do. Like I said...if Holmes can't win it all, I'll be rooting for you guys to bring the big trophy home. :thumb:

:lol:

This was an incredible article. It's articles like this that help make ESPN the greatest sports magazine by far!
