Didn't know it was a Dixie thread, thought it was about 2011 9th Region BB in general. Sorry to threadjack.

Seems like it should be more of a Dixie thread than Cov Cath. However it is a 9th region BB thread, and with Dixie as the seemingly consensus favorite, the question remains. Who in the 9th region gives Dixie a legitimate run for their money?

I honestly think the only thing that beats Dixie is themselves. It will take tremendous guard play to defeat them and I'm not sure anyone has the guard play to keep up with them.

If next year's Dixie team consists only of underclassman on the 2010-2011 team, they will be the overwhelming favorite to repeat as 9th Region champs. If they add a few players :scared:.

 

I have some Dixie alum friends who were poking at me about the anticipated influx of prep school type talent to Park Hills. I just don't see it happening. If you think the parent flack was heavy in the past, wait until a sophmore or junior who has been in the Cov. Cath. b'ball pipeline since playing in the grade school leagues loses playing time (or a roster spot) to a transfer who needs MapQuest to find the gym.

:popcorn: I too am waiting for that scenario to unfold!

It is funny to me, but it seems like the people who talk about this and seem to think it will happen, are the furthest from the Cov Cath program. I have not talked to one person close to the program who has told me that this was a goal of the new coach, nor the program.

I think this is the single funniest quote I have seen on BGP. LOL

Dixie will be good next year even if they don't get any new kids.

 

But let's be careful to say Dixie won't lose a game next yr if indeed they get these transfers because if they don't go undefeated and win the district, region and the state, then the predictors will have major egg on their face.

 

IMO: There will be teams in the 9th next yr who will give Dixie a run for it whether Dixie is the same team as last yr or this new proclaimed super team with transfers.

Teams please??

I did send an email to a coach. Your point?

 

What you failed to mention though was that one of the players mentioned just so happens to be the younger brother of someone I went to high school with, but am also still good friends with to this day.

 

You and sportsguy (who has asked for my help in the past to "get" a few players on his AAU team...funny how that works, huh?) can bash my info and take personal shots at me all you want but I have a lot more inside info than you think. Unlike others in this thread, I stated a fact that no new players had enrolled at Dixie. Is that not true? I'd assume you'd know since you seem to know it all.

 

The one player that was mentioned as supposedly transferring in by Q, was actually a student at Dixie all year but didn't play basketball. Thanks for playing though.

 

That is a lie! When one claims they can help someone by begin a cousin of the head coach, and it turns out that is not true, then said person did not help at all!
