  1. This was a very well played game. Boone's guards shut conner down and Story for boone had a field day down low. I think it will be interesting to see how they match up with Ryle. Boone County is getting better each week and could pose a threat to upcoming teams.
  2. It's amazing how many close games there have been this year. Holmes, CCH , Highlands, Boone. It's amazing how much credit CCH and Highlands are getting when Highlands beat Boone by one and CCH didn't exactly kill them either. I def think that allot of ppl will be surprised with a few of the teams in the 9th. I've watched allot of games this year and most of them have been with BCHS. They have amazed me, all up to the 4th qtr. They have a very strong team that plays and plays and in the 4th some how they always lose their game and end up giving the game away. It would be hard for me to sit here and say that i think the kids are to blame for this . They have amazing talent , handling the ball and around the 3 pt line. This team is stacked with talent and will be dangerous in the tourney. I'm curious to see how they will match up to Holmes. I really think BCHS could take them. #10 Ben Ryan will be the key to the game. if he shuts Jefferson down Boone could pull away with the game. My point is that allot of credit is given to Holmes and HHS and CCH and i'm not saying they dont deserve it but it's not like they are beating teams by 20. I think time will tell.
  3. If a player goes up for a layup and a player on the other team grabs the rim, is that a T. just curious
  4. Yes i am. I've been watching basketball or playing it for well over 15 years. I'm saying it is pretty bad when (no offense) but when there are ppl in the stands that know nothing about bball and are seeing how bad these refs are. It's not like it's that hard to go out on a court and call a game. i used to ump ball games and it's the same thing, yes there is pressure but you have to be consistant and you have to be fair. Most of my problem with the game calling is it's totally not fair. Sometimes the game is called in the way of the other team, sometimes it's called in the way of the team i want to win, but either way one of the teams are getting screwed. Out of the 15-20 games i've wathced this year I think i've seen 4 games called good. Yes, there are going to be mistakes, they are human but to totally blow a game is a bit rediculous, but regardless there are more and more games being left up to refs.
  5. I really think you all are giving highlands way too much credit. The 9th could go any way. Highlands barely beat BCHS, by 1 i might add. I think the 9th is going to be taken by a complete underdog. Time will tell
  6. I watched a ref a couple weeks ago over turn a 3 to a 2 and the kicker is that it was 2 possesions later. It was at a very critical part of the game and after watching a video of the game the boy shooting was a foot behind the line. Now i know refs make mistakes but this was 3 ft away from him and no one blocking his path. This one did get sent in and I hope that ref is done calling games. I think ray charles has a better chance calling these games than most of the refs in the 9th region i've seen.
  7. I am just wondering if there are any qualifications to be a high school referee. I've watched several games this season for several teams and last nights game at Boone County against Holy Cross was by far the worst called game ever. The refs had no idea on 4 occasions who had the ball and who the foul was being called on. I watched them make some bad calls and then to make up for it there would be a make up call which was obvious what was going on. They were calling some dumb stuff but as soon as one of Holy Cross's player started a pushing match, the kids were broke up and no foul was called. I watched both refs give the players for Holy Cross little butt taps. There have got to be some standards because the kids don't even control the games the refs do.
  8. I'm saying boone , this will be a close game and will end up in the coaches hands. Boone has several talented players and so does holy cross but I think boone is fed up with losing and will come strong.
  9. I'm not sure what the standards or qualifications are for being an official but some of these guys are absolutely horrible. i've seen at least 5 games this year decided by the officials. I"ve seen officials take points off a game score board 2 plays after the 3 was shot and i've seen officials just totally blow a coach off with 10secs on the clock trying to call a timeout.
  10. This is just a start i'm sure to boone's run. They had an incredible game down low and had no problem from the guards bringing the ball up the ct and dishing it off. The boone team that played last night will do damage in the up coming games. Saturday will be the test , I hear they play some team from down south that is supposed to be tough but we will see.
  11. I am in no way trying to start an arguement but the camels are far from the rebels in talent. Boone came out strong, Bray lit the 3's up and Story's lit the boards up with some easy bunnies and a dunk i might add. This was one of the best coached games i've watched. The coach pulled the key players out at end of quarters to give them breaks and got them right back in. Boone played unbelievable and if they keep playing like this they're def going somewhere. The best part about the game was everyone out there just about contributed, Ben with 13 assists, big game from Mike and Chris along with a Ferris and the freshman Steven. The Camels def have some strong players but they were no match for Boone.
  12. That was very well put. Edmondson really stood out when a couple players were out. He is a good ball player and i really don't think he is given that chance on the court very often. Yes he plays, but he doesn't get the ball very much. I'm sure this will be a good game .
  13. Holmes will pull away with this game exspecially if Edmonson is given the ball. Rice is too tough for CC and Jefferson will shut Jacobs or Tierney down.
  14. This game isn't going to be close. Boone has lost several straight games and are fed up with losing. This is going to be the turn around for them. I think they will bring their A game and hopefully the game is put in the kids hands and if so Boone will have no problem winning. Campbell has a few tough guys but there is no one to stop Story's and Boone's #10 is one of the better ball handlers i've seen play. Bray and Ryan B are tough from outside and Ferris is deadly when driving to the basket. Only chance Campbell has is if Boone starts pulling their key players out. If that happens Campbell will win
  15. I really think everyone is going to be shocked when it comes tourney time. I really think there are going to be some major upsets. There are several teams with losing records right now that could do a 180 and start winning some games, that is of course if the coaches get their heads on straight and focus on winning.
