Will Madison Southern come to Trinity?
FB15G8 replied to thsrocks's topic in KY Football (High School)
First, 1 great RB does not make a team. Trinity would be better oh playing 9 games than risk injury or pay MS to play a 10th game. The RB has signed with Michigan. Please explain what additional exposure does for him now.. Looks to me like he is fully exposed. -
Disagree. You could have two top 10 teams in the same district. Finishing in top 8 is nothing to dismiss. But does not automatically place you in top 10. Basketball is a great example... The top 16 teams ARE NOT in the Sweet 16.

Belfry Pirates - Top 3 Players All-Time
FB15G8 replied to Watusi's topic in KY Football (High School)
Howard didn't get the shot that Jones did, but Howard was the better back, jones may have had more college potential... But Howard was a beast... Not to take away from jones either. Those may be the best duo of all time ...anywhere in ky. I agree, Jimmy Bevins could do it all... We would practice 3 times a day and then watch film at camp and he would still get up at 5AM to fish. He would be cleaning fish while teammates ate breakfast. During non camp summer weeks he would shoot clay pigeons between practice. He seemed to have every athletic skill. -

Jim Bevins, How do you leave him out of the discussion. -
Walk on for this coming season?

Is the Sweet 16 still "THE GREATEST SHOW IN HOOPS?"
FB15G8 replied to UKYBBALL's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Louisville might have been more fan friendly 20 years ago. Ask Louisville to hold it at the Yum Center and see what happens. The arenas are not cheap, Rupp or UK isn't providing the court, the KHSAA pays for it. If Louisville was the most economical and fan friendly place to have it, it would be there. Please note, the KHSAA did not have a lead sponsor this year. This is the first time they have not had one in about 10 years. I'd say this was a major financial hit for them. I applaud the KHSAA for attempting to operate within their budget. About time we had organizations attempting to get the finances right. Keep in mind the KHSAA had their own budget blunders in the past, but that was under prior leadership. -
Ranking returning players for next year

I was talking to Jay Bilas and Dicky V interrupted us, neither of them see Bolden playing above mid major. -
KHSAA Player Transfer Policy
FB15G8 replied to Voice of Reason's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
You cannot transfer for athletic reasons. When you write the letter to obtain eligibility at your new school you cannot mention athletics ... Too many people state the coaches had something against their child or the facilities are run down or they simply want better coaching. All you have to do is say we are moving, period end of discussion. But basically, say nothing about athletics to the KHSAA as a reason for your move to the new school. -
Is the Sweet 16 still "THE GREATEST SHOW IN HOOPS?"
FB15G8 replied to UKYBBALL's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
It really doesn't matter... It's all about the play. Lets review the threads ... This year - the Best tourney ever? Sweet 16 still the greatest show on Earth? Game so crazy and wild players just survive. Fact, is the players produced a great tourney. Forget the lasers and confetti. It is high school after all. Lets save confetti for the pros. -
I think it's because everyone was watching the games versus looking at this years awesome program.

State Tourney: Montgomery vs John Hardin Predictions
FB15G8 replied to Coffman's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
I don't think JH can score with MC. But JH is a team full of men though. If they want to go inside they will. -
Very true

Where every score is apparently a highlight!

Greatest Sweet 16 Game You Have Seen
FB15G8 replied to BIG BLACK JACK's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Without question.... Clay co vs Ballard in Freedom Hall. Farmer va. Future NBA player Allan Houston. Farmer put up 51 I believe. Houston was much taller and Farmee would back him down and shoot a high arching shot that just kept dropping. Best performance I have ever seen by far. -
10th Region: Bishop Brossart vs Montgomery County
FB15G8 replied to gold sunrise's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Not a fan of the transfers in at MC or any place else. But rules are rules and if someone moves they move, no rules violated. The times have changed. Love to see a community play with the guys that have been together fornyear. But consider soccer. What a joke. Get your exchange students lined up early -
10th Region: Bishop Brossart vs Montgomery County
FB15G8 replied to gold sunrise's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Brossart has a player that I won't name...he has the slowest shot I've ever seen and he nearly cocks it behind his head. Prewiit and Jones will have 10 blocks between them. -
10th Region: Bishop Brossart vs Montgomery County
FB15G8 replied to gold sunrise's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
This quote sums it up. Brossart good club but they won't stand up to the pressure MC applies and the pace of the game. Now, that being said, if BB could set the pace in a half court game it could be interesting. But, it won't be interesting. MC hasn't been tested much into the last 4 minutes of many games for a reason. They have too much speed, too much talent and too many bench contributors to get tested, at least not in this seasons 10th region. Baseball has officially started at Bishop Brossart. -
Montgomery County 67 Harrison County 33

No shock. Indians have superior talent and now they appear to be clicking on all cylinders. -
Head Coaches Applying for New Jobs and BluegrassPreps
FB15G8 replied to ChiefSmoke's topic in KY Football (High School)
Without question, it is wrong. Debate it till the cows come home, it's still wrong. We have less respect for privacy and each other by the day. -
Dominique Hawkins = Darius Miller?
FB15G8 replied to Triple_Threat's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Like it or not, Darius is playing in the NBA and was or nearly was the 6th man last year. He had very big key moments all during the season. Also, we now know just how special last years group really was. -
Dominique Hawkins = Darius Miller?
FB15G8 replied to Triple_Threat's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
I saw him play at the Gateway Classic. Glad I saw him play, probably the last time I will have the chance. -
And, take away some credit for not seeing any jobs through so far. I do think he did a nice job at BS, but I don't think every move he has been for a better career path. Commitment issues, bored easily, afraid to fail? If you only stay for a year or 2, you can't get labeled....if you win, then he is a good coach, if you lose, we'll its because he didn't stick it out. Little bit of a legend without actually being a legend. Not saying he isn't a good or even great coach... I am saying we will likely never know if he is or isn't

Should We Count This Shot, Mr/Ms Ref?
FB15G8 replied to Clyde's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
During slide he stops dribble and then gets up. I say travel. -
Should We Count This Shot, Mr/Ms Ref?
FB15G8 replied to Clyde's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
It think when he goes down he stops dribbling and slides on his butt... Then comes out of it with a carry... I see a travel (slide) and a carry and I believe he would have gone out bounds but he ran out of time. Basically, totalliy out of control.
