With or without Pike, I think Dixie wins the 9th Region.

 

Bold prediction considering what Holmes and Newcath return.

 

Both return a front court that will give Dixie problems.

Dixie does not have enough size.

Dixie does not have enough size.

 

What Dixie lacks in size, they will make up for with talent and athleticism on the perimeter.

 

Let's not forget the years Holmes went to the state semis and state championship they had nobody over 6'5 in their starting lineup.

 

06/07

6'1 Jefferson, 6'1 Henderson, 6'2 Hill, 6'4 Rice, 6'5 Clark

 

07/08

5'10 Avery, 6'1 Henderson, 6'2 J. Johnson, 6'3 R. Johnson, 6'5 Clark

I noticed Milligan missed your roster

What about the younger Muntis kid? Did he draw the short straw this fall?

That roster is from Cincinnati.com so who knows.

He opted to pursue other activities. I think he could've been a contributor this year with his size.

I don't think Cohorn and Bruns are playing and I saw them on there also.

They both played a lot last year that will hurt if they are not on the team.

I dont think it hurts as much as some might think. Cohorn was a strong guard but the addition of Fox and the solid play of Hassell and Evans likely was the writing on the wall. He is too short to play a 4 spot. Bruns would see limited time as well and suffered an injury in football that he may want to continue rehabbing. However, you can never have too much depth.

Wow - Zeke going to college in Jan. is a huge blow to Dixie. They will have to shift players and re-group their team like most of the other 9th Region teams. Will make 9th Region a toss up again.

 

NOPE - he was a cancer. Team is better without him.

I know where you are coming from but they did pretty well with him on the team last year. Chemistry always is a factor but so is 6'5" of smart and physical in the middle.

Cohorn's decision to not play this year wasn't based on playing time at all. His future is focused on getting ready for football in college. He's been busy on the college visit scene and working with a personal trainer on improving his speed and agility. Smart move in my opinion,
