The behavior of some of the parents of Boone players is extremely disappointing.

Parents cannot stand up and yell at the head coach.

Wow, I was on the Boone side and didn't see any misbehaving parents. I heard a couple of loud comments directed to the referees but nothing that I would categorize as extremely disappointing.

 

Did I miss something? :idunno:

 

Anything you can share?

I also did not see/hear anything like that. I think parents were more upset with the officiating than the coach in this game.

I whitnessed this last year during regionals. Parents yelling at coach on who should be in and who shouldn't be in.

 

I think its a shame many Boone Co. players and parents don't realize what a great coach they have in Coach McQuery.

I know this has went on in past years but I didn't hear/see it last night. Doesn't mean it didn't happen, though.

Top Two reasons for St. Henry victory over Boone...

 

#1 - Free Throws - Free Throws, Free Throws, Free Throws. I would love to see what the stats were in the free throw category in the 4th quarter and in OT. St. Henry didn't miss any (seemed like) and Boone didn't make any.

 

#2 - Coaching - Coach Faust. I agree with CCR in a post at the top of the thread. He gets more out of his players than any other coach in the 9th region. If he's not the best coach in N. Ky, he is in the top 2 or 3. And, well, the BCHS coach isn't Faust. How much input does Coach Downs have at Boone? I hear nothing but good things about him as a coach and in AAU, however, there doesn't seem to be a great deal of communication between the head coach and Coach Downs during games. I would like to see him a bit more involved in some of the decision making / substituions during games. How, when taking the ball out at the end of regulation with 1.8 seconds left and you have to go the length of the court do you NOT put someone on the baseline (under your offensive basket) to ensure that the inbounds pass doesn't go out of bounds without being touched which allowed St. Henry to then inbound the ball under their own basket. Again, hats off to Coach Faust on play they called to get a wide open look at the buzzer that could have avoided OT all togheter.

 

Referring- Just to make a comment about the refs, some of the calls and non calls (BOTH WAYS) were just terrible. I especially liked the push of the St. Henry player at mid court by Boone that was called as over and back. I thought that was a classic. I don't understand why it is not mandated that high school games do not require 3 referees!! I believe it is up to the home team to determine whether or not a third referree is at the game? Does someone know the rule on that one? If that is the case, then, if I had a physical team and was playing at home, I would just seek to have just two refs call the game. Just my opinion, but I could see where this could be taken advantage of. I'm not saying that was the case in this game at all, just an observation in general. There were a ton of missed calls, a ton a questionable calls and a ton of bad calls. Not just my opinion, but the reaction from both sets of fans when calls were made would support that claim. I know they aren't perfect, but come on....

 

As for fixing the Rebels..... I don't know how much actually needs to be fixed, however, with the very limited action for Earls and Lay, once they get back on the court, they should be fine. I would like to see Gabbard get more shots (as noted in an earlier post) and be more assertive and can the Rebels please use their athletes and run up and down the court and allow them to make plays? They should be scoring in the 70's, not having to make a late run to get into the 50's.

 

Just my thoughts....

Coach downs is an extremely good coach that gets more out of a player than I have seen from many coaches in the area. It would be nice to see him as a head coach at any NK high school because he allows the kids to play their game and you either perform or you sit regardless of your class level. I know his AAU always competed at the state level against good competition.

Yeah for the most part all I heard was members of the crowd yelling about calls the ref's made, and that was both sides of the gym. I thought it was kind of odd though it seemed like the Boone side was complaining more than the St. Henry side, although there were quite a few more fouls called against St. Henry than Boone, ALOT more.

Fouls were 8 to 7 in favor of St. Henry in the first half. The were 10-6 in favor of Boone in the second half, and in favor of St. Henry in OT because Boone had to foul then. Fouls were pretty even overall. It's just that several dumb ones were often called by the refs that weren't fouls and vice versa. Each team had one player foul out.

Exactly what I was thinking as well.

 

I would have said of the overachieving 7-7 Crusaders though.....

 

How many years in a row are people going to call the Crusaders overachieving?

 

Now I know they love being the underdog, but how many years in a row have people called them overachieving?

Considered they haven't been considered a top 10 ranked team in the region all season long......Id say beating CovCath and Boone Co is overachieving.

 

But to answer your question.....I guess as soon as teams realize they are one of areas tough teams to beat, then they won't be overachieving. Its all due to perception. But I agree....with coach faust and his hard working players every year.......this program is always good or better.

You are spot on 1487! McQuery is solid, must be the parents whose kids are riding the pine...:confused:
