Just wondering How Clark Co.s 5 juniors if they are the tallest or not one of the tallest teams in the state?

I would say so. We can put a lineup of no one shorter than 6'4.

 

G Stenzel 6'4

G Daniels 6'6

C Rogers 6'5

F Purvis 6'7-6'8

F Zollo 6'9

It's crazy that they are all just juniors! If GRC does well in March, would you expect to see them get some national attention next year?

Clark Co and Holmes are probably the two biggest teams in the state.

 

Holmes:

 

6'3 Slusher

6'5 J. Johnson

6'5 R. Johnson

6'6 Rice

6'8 Pittman

 

Depending on who Scott Co rolls out, they are also a pretty decent size team:

 

6'3 Guyn

6'3 Flannery

6'4 Manning

6'4 Jackson

6'9 Euton

Eastern is close, but no cigar.

 

C - Kameron Woods 6-5

PF - Lionell Gaines 6-4

SF - Remy Abell 6-2

2G - Arman Marks 6-2

PG - Delquan Thomas 6-1

Maybe I missed something but those players are LISTED at:

 

6'7 Kam Woods

6'6 Lionell Gaines

6'3 Remy Abell

6'3 Arman Marks

6'1 Delquan Thomas

Yes, and probably even if they don't do well in March.

Could be a possibility. We have a very tuff schedule this year and working on even a tuffer schedule for next year.

I know it looks bad, but it doesn't matter if you lose 25 as long as you win the title!

A tuff schedule just prepares you for post season, that is what we are trying to do.

 

Most of GRC's team is Juniors, and these kids are still growing....:eek:

6'6 Lionell Gaines

6'3 Remy Abell

6'3 Arman Marks

6'1 Delquan Thomas

 

I would certainly say that Gaines is every bit of 6'6". However, I would say that Abell (great player) is 6'1, or 6'2" at best, unless he has grown a lot in 2 or 3 months. The rest sound about right.

Yes, and probably even if they don't do well in March.

 

"National Attention", what is "National Attention?" I dont think you're going to be seeing them on ESPN anytime soon. You generally need to have a player or 3 that are ranked 4 and 5 star recruits going to big schools to get that kind of attention. I dont think GRC has that. Zollo is probably the most heard of because of his recruitment at Kentucky (and he is a nice player).

 

Lets think about Holmes Highschool from last year... They won state, they have a D-1 commit on their team right now, and 2 other players who have gotten a lot of D-1 attention (Pittman, and J. Johnson), and they have recieved little attention regionally, much less nationally.

 

Also think about Scott County, Chad Jackson (D-1 attention), Gelawn Guyn (D-1 commit at one time i believe), and Euton (UK verbal).... and yet no national attention.

 

Sad to say, but "National Attention" is VERY hard to come by. If Scott County and Holmes arent getting it, hard to believe GRC would. If you dont have those 4 & 5 star recruits and big D-1 commits, it would be unlikely (unless you are highly touted a prep school).

GRC's top 6 will all be D1 athletes.

They may be D1 ATHLETES but the level of D1 certainly plays a role in how much attention you get.

 

Perfect Practice hit the nail on the head with his post about Holmes and Scott Co.

 

Trinity is currently 18-2 and won the 3 biggest tournaments in KY (one of which is top 10 in the country when it comes to holiday tourneys) and they aren't even getting national attention.

 

It takes a lot more than having a few low-mid major D1 prospects. Holmes was 36-2 last year and the highest they got in national rankings was #17 after winning the state title.

Well, there's certainly more to it than just ESPN games. How about national rankings for the team and recruiting interest for the players?
