  1. In a close game with time running down, would you rather have a home crowd yelling for you or a hostile crowd reacting to your misfortunes?

     

    With that comes extreme pressure to succeed.

     

    Home court isn't what its cracked up to be when your are dealing with young men and woman in high school.

     

    Its just an excuse. For either team.:argue:

  2. Would anybody like to tell me how Scotty Hopson doesn't get Mr. Basketball. I mean he is on the All-American team. If he doesn't get it then something is wrong.

    :rolleyes:

    Most of the people voting in this just look at states and/or scouting reports. Most of that is from summer ball.........

    Are they allowed to play D-fense or organized offence at these events ?

     

    The fans in our state would actually know best.

  3. I have come to the realization that Elliott fans and Mason County fans are EXACTLY the same. For some reason they BOTH have an inferiority complex. Mason is obviously a remarkable team. However, thier fans (and Elliott fans) are on many threads "talking trash" and explaining why they are superior to everybody else. Both fans get on my nerves. I think I am done for the season.

     

    :p till next season !

  4. You stated in another thread that there was no way that Ferguson would score 28 point against Mason County, altho I am sure that you meant he would score a lot less. Your prediction was correct Ferguson only scored 27 points against Miller, WOW Miller held Ferguson to 1 point below his average that really is dominating a player. You evidently were not able to comprehend that "Sidelinecoach" was referring to the post that said that Ferguson had 10 of his points after Miller left the game, which was not true he only scored 2 free throws after Miller left the game. Mason County did dominate Elliott County, but Miller definately did not dominate Ferguson. Come on!!

     

    Being up by as many points as Mason Co. was in this game, I am sure Mason Co. didn't apply much pressure in half court sets. Allowing Elliot Co. to shoot from the outside.

     

    But, it does sound like the Elliot Co. kid has a nice stroke though !

  5. :argue:

     

    Your missing the point. What I'm saying is enrollment wise Elliott, while not in the same league as the big boys are a good team... If Mason had Elliott's enrollment {no bias for ball players) would they be where they are at??

     

    I think Mason Co. enrollment is around 790......Maybe in North Dakota they would be considered a big school......:jump:

     

    Without question Mason Co.'s program delivers quality basketball. Not the enrollment.

     

    If enrollment mattered most, then teams from Louisville and Lexington would win the state hands down every year.

     

    Also, Mason Co. would loose about half or maybe more of its games per year.

  6. The same can be said for Mason County. In the last fifteen years they had one good run (the Chris Lofton era). Paintsville also had one good run (the Tackett, Vanhoose era). The bottom line is since 95 Mason only made the tournament one time outside of the Lofton era. That was in 06 when the made they made the quarters.

     

    3 good runs actually.

     

    State 3 year' in a row 91,92,93 with out Loften and add this years group who doesn't have Loften. State in 2006, missed last year but could redeem themselves this year.

     

    Also the did a few good this in the 80's. State finalist one year. I am not sure about regional titles.
