Ky Kids playing AAU basketball this summer

[Tiger1]

I have never heard of the NKY Bulldogs? Are they a new club? Can someone please tell me who coaches them?

 

Thanks

Isaiah Ivey(Scott County) and Corey Gregg(Rose Hill) are playing with Tamron Manning, Jaylen Beckham, and Mike Terry on the Hoop Dreams team out of Lexington. There are a couple of other kids on that team and when I find out their names, I'll post them.

OBC Adidas/KY Patriots have more or less broken up at this point. Dakotah Euton is playing for the Wisconsin team. Some of those guys from the Patriots will be playing for the Shining Stars (McFarland).

 

As for the NKY Bulldogs. I just saw them play at a tournament 2 weeks ago and they battled the Charlotte Court, who were also solid. I thought the Bulldogs just looked like a team that played with good fundamentals and motivation. They have the Stauffer kid who is a Ryle Highschool Big and Matt Trammel who started varsity with Dixie Heights Highschool.Both had real good seasons. Some other young guys who also looked tough. They are all sophomores. We shall see how they perform this summer. They actually have a website nkybulldogs.com

 

All the tournaments this weekend should be real interesting. I'm excited to see how all these Kentucky studs shake out this summer.

I know little about AAU hoops, but how do players from Kentucky end up playing for Indiana/Wisconsin?

My guess is, they get hounded by to many Kentucky fans every time they miss a shot.

The Derek Smith Allstar 17's will be attending the Bear Cat Classic in Cincinnati this weekend.

The Indiana Elite teams are the best around. You have to be asked to my knowledge.

There are 3 Ky boys on the 16U team: Knipp, Zollo and Shanklin. Here is their roster:

Timmy Knipp is on the Derek Smith roster this year. Maybe he's changed his mind.

Timmy Knipp and Jordan Shanklin are both playing for DS 16u team

Not uncommon for aau rosters to change over the course of a season

but I bet your looking at last years roster, still showing Zollo living in Ohio

Indiana Elite is always a good team, but I was told Shining Stars (Mcfarland) beat them by 19 last weekend

They might have. There are two Indiana Elite teams. There are two seperate organizations. They actually wear close to the same colors. Both teams are always good. I know a couple of years ago. Deshaun Thomas (Ohio State Commit 2010) and Ray Mccalum Jr. played on one of the teams.
