Top Players in the Sweet 16

[Wireman]

Forgot about the Faulkner brothers, they going to DII if I remember right?

 

Ethan to NKU (DII)

 

Evan to Radford (DI)

Is Ballou the only one with a scholarship?

 

I haven't heard of Nick Fudge getting any offers, and with his lack of size, he may not. But make no mistake: Adair Co. is where they are because of how well Fudge has played this postseason. I've been extremely impressed with how he's elevated his game.

[Jtown]

Vee Sanford, Elijah Pittman, Ricardo Johnson, Jonathon Ferguson, Et. Faulkner, Ev. Faulkner, Darren Ballou, Nick Fudge, Ridge Wilson,

 

I like your list. The only thing I would change is I would put Ricardo Johnson in front of Elijah Pittman. Ricardo has been playing very well lately. Pittman is also a very good player, but there have been several teams this year that have shut him down. I have not seen a team this year completely shut down Ricardo.

Justice can flat out play.

Hazard- 6'1 Josh Whitaker

 

So good he gets mentioned twice?

 

Tevin Barksdale of BG has had a nice postseason. Probably ought not sleep on Christian County's Corey Wilford (17 ppg), either.

Everyone has pretty much mentioned all the players I would have named... Except for Neal Pawsat from Mason. That kid may not be a physical specimen like some mentioned above, but he is a gamer and can flat out drain it from the perimeter.

[joejoe08]

I'll take Ricardo Johnson as the Sweet 16 MVP.

Darren Ballou - Adair Co.

:thumb: I agree I think he will be the best big man in the tourney. I think he is a D-1 prospect. I also think a kid that is not mentioned on anyone's list is Madison Johnson from Corbin (6'4 junior guard). I think he is one of the best Junior's in the state. Those going down to the Sweet 16 remember the name Madison Johnson (possible 1st team All- State player next season).

:laugh: He might be...

Didn't notice I mentioned him twice...my bad.

 

I've heard great things about Barksdale. Is he of any relation to the Barksdale at Tates Creek?

 

I doubt ANYONE is sleeping on Wilford. He and Wilson form one of the best 1-2 combos in the state. I'm very interested in seeing them against Holmes and how Wilson does against Rico, and vice versa.

Fudge has an offer from Lindsey Wilson and Transy and Centere also want him.

Not sure.

Good. He's too smart a player to not be able to help out somewhere. :thumb:

Darren Ballou the Morehead State signee.

Nick Fudge.

C.J. Penney.

Josh Whitaker.

Russ Middleton.

Just a few to mention.

Elijah Pittman of Holmes had a coming out party last year in the sweet 16 as a soph and was the second most productive player in the tournament behind only Mr. Miller of Mason Co. He returns a year later 3 inches taller, 25 lbs heavier, and with an all around better game...I like the odds of him putting on a show again this year.
