I have to side with GT on this one. I don't see how playing at LexCath can be equal to or playing at St. Benedict's in any aspect.

Roshown McLeod is nothing more than a dirty AAU street agent and I have witnessed him in action at several AAU tournaments and youth elite camps. No way would I want my son or friends around him. He was let go by IU for a reason! He has his own personal agenda period. You can cross DSR and JB off the IU list for sure and I am not certain that isn't part of his agenda also. He tried his best to get Bud Macke to live with him in Georgia also. He was coaching the Atlanta Celtics AAU team this spring and gave IU and the Adidas May Classic/Indiana Elite organization his final dirty business by telling them till the very day before that he was bringing his team and would pay them when he got there before their first game but did not showup to try and mess their pool play brackets up and basically saying up yours IU if you know what I mean.

 

I wish JB and DSR nothing but success but be very careful who you associate yourself with! McLeod doesn't have these two fine players best interest in mind but only for his own personal agenda. JMO

DSR had a change of heart and decided to stay at defending state champ North Central today...

Interesting. Do you think that will impact Beckham's decision? For my own selfish reasons I'd love for him to stay in state() but I won't be mad at him or fault him at all for going to St. Benedict's.

I don't think one has anything to do with the other...

Good post! As far as my post take it for what its worth but there has been dirty business not just in the AAU circuit and alot of it has been in the central part of the state.

Good to hear but that wasn't the debate.

I have no idea about everything you said, but something just seems shady with him. Its hard to not be atleast concerned about McLeod.

How wasn't it? He'll get more exposure and play against better competition at St. Benedict's. Not to mention play on a better team, possibly receive better coaching and likely a better education. He'll probably end up on a better AAU team as well which goes back to my statement that playing at St. Benedict's seems better than LexCath in every aspect.

I doubt either one of these. One thing that I have seen over the years is that while the talent level in Ky isn't what it is else where HS basketball coaching is very good in Kentucky and when you talk about LexCath they are very well-coached. And I believe Lexington Catholic High School is a great place to get an education (and I am by no means a private school type guy).

The debate was centered around a)going to NJ or b)staying in Lexington and using the AAU circuit to get time against better competition AND get exposure.

 

I don't buy the better coaching or better education.

That is funny, he is playing summer ball with Lex CAth. Is he doing this just for the fun of it?

I said possibly. I don't think any of us here in KY can really attest to how good of an education he may receive nor can we truly tell of the coaching he will get at St. Benedict's compared to LexCath. That's why I said possibly.

 

However, I won't let my bias for the state of KY, or the magnificent nationwide standing KY has in terms of receiving a quality education stand in my way of thinking that he may possibly receive a better education at a private school in New Jersey.
