Dunbar, Catholic, Madison Central, and Franklin are all right there together in the 10-15 or so range in the state. I actually think Dunbar could be the best of the 4. They sure impressed me with their game in the region tournament last year agaisnt Station. Station and Tates Creek could also be top 25 teams this year.

Yes, for example Elliott returns five starters from a team that almost beat Mason last year at state.

I am getting conflicted reports from people on Dunbar. For some reason I thought their coach said they would have 3 or 4 starters returning this year but on the other hand I thought that Webb, Webb, and couple of other key players were seniors last year. Anyone know who else they have back besides Hudson? Also, who is back for N. Hardin? Is football star Larod King a b-ball player?

I will have more info after I get a look at the Cat's Pause yearbook but for now. 1. Scott 2. Holmes 3. Elliott 4. J-town 5. GRC 6. Manual 7. Hazard 8. S. Valley 9 Adair Co. 10 Mason Co. / Dunbar

No way! They should be co-favorites with J-town (who is picking up a Manual transfer). But don't forget about others such as Ballard, Male, and Trinity who all return good players and who I think are top 25 teams.

Who does everyone think will be the favoirte in the 7th this year? Manual or J-town? Also how good is Ballard?

Hazard is right up there but it looks like Campbell might not play and either way I would still probably give the nod to Elliott.

Ryan.

Hood and Ferguson.

Elliott is the favorite to win the ALL A and they should go deep into the KHSAA state tournament as well.

Anyone know? Also who else do they have besides Jenkins?

Agree.

Hackworth did start limping and came out in the second half. Not sure how many plays he missed and I don't know whether he came back in or not. Along with Darnell he is probably the Indians best player.

GRC was 0 for 4 in the red zone in the first half. Indians played good on defense, running the ball and special teams, they just need to get the passing game going.

I think if called upon maybe Rash could guard a tall guy because he has such long arms and maybe Combs could guard another tall guy.

You have a good point about the GRC coach being poor at clock management. I remember when they played Montgomery in the playoffs in '06 and all they needed to do was do a couple running plays and the game would be over. The coach for seem reason decided to go all Les Miles and actually throw the ball. It stopped the clock and actually allowed Montgomery to get one final possession and actually have a hail mary at the end zone. While GRC won the game it was one of the dumbest coaching moves I have ever seen.

It was a great game! Might as well play it again. Kind of a motivating factor for both teams in summer camp.

Campbell is very good at defense and rebounding.

Will Pittman and R. Johnson be their most consistent players?

GRC should be a top 5 team in the state this year if Zollo is as good as advertised. Even before Zollo they would be top 10.

I would guess they would start Rash, Hendrix, Combs, Curtis, and maybe Crisp if they want to go small. Those are the 5 guys that had the most playing time last year. Rash and Hendrix should be the go to players with Rash drawing the defensive assignment of the guarding the others team/s best player.

How good is this Housley kid? Anyone have his stats? Is he ranked anywhere in state/national rankings?

How is the Indians offensive and defensive lines this year? I know they lost a guy for the year. Is there much experience besides Grant Darnell?

They didn't say much. Just a few comments on how Euton had to move for work and that it is only natural to find the right fit. And that they could see the reasoning behind the Jackson families move.

I just came from the hearing. Both are eligible.
