UKYBBALL

My bad. KC is who i was talking about. No I haven't seen GJ yet. I hope he is much better than the current PG. KC is not the player I think KY needs to run the show and be a top 10 team.

Yes, he was suppose to be the highlight of a classic a earlier in the season in Lex. and he didn't impress very many people including myself. Were you able to catch it? I just want UK bball back to where it is consistently in the top 10 and fighting for #1 seeds in the NCAA's. We have gotten to the point where we are talking each year whether or not they or going to make the NCAA instead of making a #1 seed or not.

Vee Sanford and Elisha Justice could start at point guard for UK right now over Porter and Liggins. They are both better than G.J. I just don't understand some of his recruiting. G.J., Euton, Avery?????

The Fleming County job will be open. I look for Hicks to try and get out of Bath and move to Fleming.

12th region winner is this formula: Ozz Jackson (KHSAA board of control member for 14th region) + Jeff Jackson (brother to Ozz and Lincoln County's coach) + 14th region officials + region held at Lincoln County = Lincoln County 12th region champs!!!

I think Meeks will stay hot and the cats pull out a close one by 5.

Good win Elliott. It would have been better if you would have played your 2 good opponents for the week on a neutral or visiting floor. Both teams had to travel out of their region to the 16th to a packed Sandy Hook gym and hostile territory.

If Eastern can make it out of the 7th, don't be suprised if they just keep on winning all the way to the finals while the bottom bracket is beating each other up. Then Eastern wins a close one on Sat. night to claim the big trophy.

Will Middleton be back for next game against Brossart?

12th 15th 16th

Elliott will be open, but next coach already decided Bath County will be open if Hicks gets a decent job offer because his players graduate. Ashland could be open and Jeff Hall bring his son, Cameron, back to play for Tomcats.

Pike Central: #1 Choice Kelly Wells - Already said thanks but no thanks #2 Choice Allen Hatcher - Offer on table, but he is playing them to see what kind of money they will offer, but going to say no thanks when its all said and done #3 Choice Eddie Whitaker - In hopes he will bring his son with him, but he will say no thanks and stay put at Hazard. #4 Choice - The left overs, the administration think this is a highly sought after job and will find out when they look for a new boy's coach. Same thing happened last year when they ran their girl's coach off.

Why does the KHSAA not allow Kentucky teams to play private teams from outside the state if they are not sanctioned (i.e. Oak Hill, prep schools, etc.)? On the other hand, they allow Kentucky teams to play Australia teams which are on summer vacation and usually made up of players on traveling AAU teams so to speak. This is not even the Australia's teams regular schedule. How does the KHSAA know or think that the Australia teams are sanctioned or if it is there regular high school team and not a traveling all star team on summer break. I don't understand the KHSAA's thinking on allowing one but not the other. We use to have some good matchups with Oak Hill. I hope I made sense on this matter.:confused:

11 Ties and 9 lead changes. Elliott pulls away at the end. Great high school basketball game!

Does anyone know when the tournament brackets will be drawn for the All A Classic and Sweet 16 state tournaments?

If Fairview would have kept Hall there, then they would have had a very nice high school team. Congrats on the great start to the season.

Why is Paul Dunbar cancelling games against their top competition? I noticed on here that Dunbar cancelled with Shelby Valley and now Scott County this past Tuesday. I look on the scoreboard and see no make up dates posted. Is Paul Dunbar avoiding their best competition? Is their coach on the hot seat or something and need wins? Just wandering, but they are 4-0 with cancellations against 2 top ranked teams.

Elliott Co. 86-64

Without Jacob Jenkins, Manual is a mediocre team in the 7th. They will be a lot better when he gets back from his injury.

Glenn Rice, Jr. (Senior Guard) Signed with Georgia Tech of ACC. Ryan Harrow (Junior point guard) Committed to North Carolina State of ACC. Very nice team coming to eastern Kentucky.

...in the face.

He may sacrafice his job if he don't get things turned around by the end of next season. His teams defense is too predictable. Man-to-man entire game with only and man full court press if they are desperate. Not much to prepare for if you are an opposing coach and team. I also think he wants to start Liggins, but Liggins refusal to go in the other night kind of did this in for him to start anytime soon. Gillespie was quoted numerous times in the preseason that this team would be longer, faster, quicker, stronger and much improved. The only thing they look like is longer to me.

Why is Meeks and Patterson still in the game. I hope they don't get an injury at this point in the game.

I hope UK doesn't schedule football and basketball games back-to-back ever again. I get mad, upset, and depressed watching the football game and then I have to watch this ugly exhibition of basketball right after it and get even more mad, upset, and depressed. Is the Ridge open tonight?

Elliott should win this easily. Madisonville lost 4 of 5 starters from last years team plus their first reserve off the bench. Jon Hood is very short handed for his senior year. Elliott should have played Scott Co. in this one but for some reason Coach Mays requested to Sheldon Clark staff that they not play Scott Co. I can't figure that one out because it is only a scrimmage. Anyways, good luck to both teams and our future wildcat Mr. Hood.
