Aren't unsigned seniors allowed to play on a 17u team? I thought they were. Seems like i remember G'lawn Guyn doing that a couple of years back on Indiana Elite. But I will be the first to say I may be wrong.

I guess it was from the horse's mouth?

That is a recent development, because I know as of earlier today it wasn't totally far fetched. I wasn't sure Happy would end up going, because I beleve his heart is still in the college game, but I do know him becoming the next coach was discussed by more than just the people in Mt. Sterling.

By the way, just for those who think it takes a huge salary to draw Happy Osborne. I suspected that wouldn't necessarily be the case. I don't know what he made at Georgetown College (private institution), but I don't think it was HUGE money. And, with a little Google research knowing that all state institution salaries are public knowledge, here's what I found out. TN Technological Univ OSBORNE ROBERT ASSISTANT COACH 2 Mens Basketball $62,000 Of course, he probably also gets camp money and some additional perks that makes the total package worth more. But, either way, it's not like past history prices himself out of a high school coaches salary. I, for one, am a huge Happy Osborne fan having seen him coach many, many games at Georgetown College. I wish he would have never left there, but that's a story for another time and place. I am not sure how he would translate to the high school level, where his time with the kids will be less than the virtually no rules of a NAIA school. If nothing else, the people of Mt. Sterling and the 10th Region will be entertained watching him on the sidelines.

I recognize a couple of these names, so I figured I would fill in some blanks. Jalen Haddix, Scott County Jamal Adupeasah, Dunbar Vince Mattox, Tates Creek (son of former UK women's coach Bernadette Mattox)

Who are the Pump brothers?

Who's on Hoop Dreams 17U roster?

Louisville Magic 10th beat KY Elite 63-56 in the finals (for some reason, MidAmerica's bracket shows IN Elite where it should have said KY Elite). KY Elite led by 5 at half, but the Magic hit shots in the second half that Elite was missing on their end. Well played game. The Magic 10th grade team I know by name were Green, Grundy, Cunningham, Hatton, Owens. Others included a guard from St. X and 2 kids that were similar size to Grundy, but I don't know there names. I was told one was from PRP and I can't remember on the other one. The Magic 11th grade team was missing several kids. Russell was still playing with Monteverde in the ESPN tournament. Snider was seen at the gym Sunday, but didn't play all weekend (don't know why). Willis was in New Orleans playing in an all star game. I had also been told at various times (don't know the validity) that Quick, Whitman and Avare were also playing Magic 11th, but none of them were there this weekend.

KY Elite 17u Mason Monroe, Pendleton County Quin Richardson, Scott County Dalton Cornett, Perry Central Tyler Page, Scott County Blake Sanders, South Laurel Alex Sargent, Harlan County Derek Jeffries, Henry County Justin Moody, St. X Brock Kiesler, St. X Steven Chambers, Mason County Nick Trisko, Lafayette Dez Marshall, Collins

I thought it was a terribly played game. I agree the last few seconds We're probably the most exciting part of the tournament, but it was a poorly played game.

Feel bad for Woodford. Great run simply ran into a team on a mission. Nobody in the 11th was beating Sxott County tonight. Congrats to Woodford on a great season. Good luck to Sxott County in Rupp.

Scott 65-39. SC guards penetrating and kicking to Gilbert who is knocking them down from distance. All over except final score.

Scott by 22 after 3

Scott county 53 Woodford County 36 ... 4:01 left in third .. Woodford timeout Scott county looks very good tonight.

@jdemling: Whoa! What an ending. Rakes raced down the floor shot just at the buzzer. Wow!!

@jdemling: Trey Rakes with a 30-footer at the buzzer for Bullitt East to win

Congratulations to Brad Sizemore. Going to Rupp in his first year at North Laurel.

So, Mason County is the favorite 2 out of every 4 years by the home court thought? So, I guess O'Hearn was in over his head last year when Clark County won. From what I was told, Wise's resume includes over 200 wins, two Final 4 appearances while coaching in Florida and 21 wins last year at Frankfort -- a school that won 23 combined the 3 years before that. I am guessing you must know Coach Wise and have a personal vendetta against him or know someone you felt should have gotten the job when Griesser left. Keep in mind, he took over a team that was 15-15 last year and 47-43 over the last 3 years. I understand some people felt Montgomery was the favorite going into the season, but those same people had Pendleton No. 2 and Clark 6 or 7. Oops, it was obviously all wrong this year.

Woodford County may very well win the game, but I don't think it will be due to overconfidence of Scott County. It's the region final, so I wouldn't think that would be an issue. I am one that is not surprised Woodford County is in the final, but I think Scott County will win a 3rd time.

I don't believe the administrators had any control over the weather Friday night.

Nobody is debating whether it should be done. The fact is that it is done. And Madison Central should have participated. The player that did stay around to shake hands was #20 (I think that is O'Brien).

Montgomery-Mason at 5, Clark-Campbell 6:30.

I couldn't agree more. They didn't even shake hands. And yes I know Woodford players ran to their student section to celebrate before going to handshake line, but they did same thing against Catholic and Cathilic waited for them to shake hands. I thought it was classless.

Scott County wins easily to advance to finals against Woodford County Tuesday night.

I am not a Simon Kenton fan or from Northern Kentucky, so I have to ask -- who is Jim Deters? Sounds like he had kids at SK at one time, but other than that, does he have any qualifications that would make this worthy of a thread?
