9th Region All A Discussion
The Observer replied to STRIKE3's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Ludlow moves down the list and without Romas, I would even move Beechwood down. They are clearly not the same team without him. -
Highlands 53 CovCath 52
The Observer replied to buckman41ss's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
This was my first time seeing Highlands this year and they are the real deal. Greg McGraw really impressed me tonight. Highlands certainly proved they belong in the same conversation as Cov. Cath. and Holmes. I would not want to play them until I had to in the regional championship. -
9th Region All A Discussion

Cov. Holy Cross Newport Cent. Catholic Beechwood Newport Saint Henry Villa Madonna Ludlow Dayton Bellevue Heritage Academy I rank them in this order. I know Newport beat Beechwood, and Bellevue has gotten past Dayton once, but this is how I see the teams in my opinion. The problem is the top 4 teams play each other early so who knows how it shakes out. It may not be the best team that wins, but the team who has the hottest hand. -
Holmes 63 vs Beechwood 29
The Observer replied to Hoops111's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Wow, I have seen both teams play enough this year to realize Holmes by 20+ but I had no idea it would get this ugly. I'm glad I went to the Cov. Cath./Highlands game instead. Alex Hall can play D3 ball somewhere. He is a solid offensive player who sometimes struggles against quicker players. In my opinion, Brian Romas is the Tigers best player. He is athletic and has a more all-around game. Hope the Tigers can rebound and beat a tough Villa team tonight. -
Rich "Goose" Gossage elected into baseball HOF
The Observer replied to SvFan4life's topic in Major League Baseball (MLB)
About time. "Goose" was a closer way ahead of his time. I always enjoyed watching him pitch of the years. -
Trevor Sorrell of Covinton Catholic
The Observer replied to NKYBOY1487's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Wow, I wish I could have been at the game to support this kid. The Sorrell family is in the thoughts of many in the NKY area. -
Holmes vs. Beechwood predictions
The Observer replied to northernkysportfan's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
I think Beechwood can play with them for a half. I did not make it to the Cov. Cath. game but heard the Tigers ran out of gas. With Romas out, they aren't as solid defensivly and I really doubt they can keep Holmes off the glass. I'll take Holmes by 20+. -

CovCath 67 Beechwood 51
The Observer replied to StickerMann's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Beechwood played with their 2nd leading scorer in Brian Romas. Covington Catholic was only up 1 at halftime but gradually tacked onto the lead as the game wore on. Cov. Cath. drove the ball at will against the Tigers and got them in foul trouble. -
Lucky Charms.......exactly how many games does Jake Long get with the Rams before he has to go play for the Raiders??
-
Glad to hear Coach Schneider is coming back. I hope he can add even more wins onto his record. He has built the program into an every year contender.

Where are the Best gyms(and worst) in NKY!
The Observer replied to coach33's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
I really like the variety of gyms in Northern Kentucky. There really isn't a real model everyone follows. I know Simon Kenton and Dixie have the same gym set-up, any other schools? -
Bank of Kentucky Center and All A State
The Observer replied to Billy Clyde's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Interesting point. I would love to see a rotation between several different places, but I'll doubt that will ever happen. NKU's arena will certainly help the argument in the future. -

The Observer replied to coach33's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Mason County is the best in NKY, hands down. In the Boone/Kenton/Campbell Co. area, I would go with Ryle on a packed night. Villa Madonna is amazing as far as small school setting. For worst, I would nominate Heritage. If you have been there, there is no argument. -
Ryle Raiders v.s. Holy Cross Predictions!
The Observer replied to *Jeanie*'s topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Sorrell will be playing with a heavy heart. I'll take Holy Cross by 2. -
How abut this.........we let Billy Clyde recruit them, and Tubby coach them? Think we can talk the two into that? Some alum has got to have a bunch of change in their pocket to throw at them right?
-
My heart goes out to everyone in the Cov. Cath. community. May god look over the Sorrell family during this hard time. Always hate to hear when someone's life ends so early. Make sure to hug the ones you love tonight. My thoughts and prayers are with the Sorrell family.

Thats great for an average program. But this is Kentucky where players should be no less than 3's with the majority being 5's. Can you give me the #'s on North Carolina,Duke, Florida, or even a team like UConn? UK should be right with these teams and they are not. Right now Kentucky is an average program that is used to be at the top.

Does your team travel overnight
The Observer replied to Hamilton Joe's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
I am a bigger fan of over night trips during Summer team camps where the kids can stay in a dorm and kind of get a feel for the college life while also bonding with their teammates. -
Also, Highlands at Cov. Cath. on Jan. 8th
-
Beechwood @ Villa on Jan. 10th. From everything I hear, Div. III will be decided between these two teams. Also a beautiful gym over there at Villa Madonna.

The biggest scumbag of 2007? I nominate this guy
The Observer replied to TomSportsHack's topic in BGP Break Room
Sad thing is, I but he had about 4 DUI's in the past. They let multiple offenders off way too easy -
With the 2nd pick, the St. Louis Rams select Jake Long
