Did you have your anemometer with you? Try more like right to left at around 15 mph.

What are their names? Low 80's is pretty impressive for a Sophomore. I would like to get those guys on my summer team.

I could buy this argument if that seemed to be true. Looking at UK's stats the player that has been playing over Farris since his playing time dropped is Neiko Johnson. Johnson's avg has not been over .200 since early Mar. Make your own conclusions from the stats. There is stuff going on other than performance Check out the link from Rivals.com: http://collegebaseball.rivals.com/showmsg.asp?fid=2308&tid=133893092&mid=133893092&sid=1169&style=2

Per Rivals.com alpuj101 Post #1 MyFanPage Add Buddy Spilling some beans here on Kentucky baseball Reply -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Its a sad day in the life of a UK baseball fan. As I type this, we're down 16-0 to the worst team in the SEC. Now we're on the outside looking in. Ive been waiting to do this simply because UK has played good as of late. Also, I write this because Kendall said to give Henderson a mulligan (he probably doesnt know the whole situation). Also to note, I have been to a ton of UK baseball games and have been an avid follower since the 2006 season. However, I have had enough of Henderson. As I talked with some baseball parents last weekend, many were Word Filter ViolationWord Filter ViolationWord Filter ViolationWord Filter Violation off. Henderson refuses to play Cory Farris, a very talented outfielder, for no reason. The result is a transfer to Cincinatti (you'll hear this officially later on). Logan Darnell, where did the guy go? What used to be our weekend starter disappeared after the Tennessee series. Henderson claimed he was hurt, but was he? No. The truth is that the two had a conversation in which Darnell said if he was drafter he would go pro. In spite, Henderson sits the kid for two weeks. After speaking with Logan and some parents, all said that he wasnt actually injured. Zach Cox, the stud hitter who plays for Arkansas, was going to attend UK. However, "something" happened on his recruiting visit to deter him from playing baseball. I wonder what happened there? One last thing. Many parents I talk to (that are parents of pitchers) are worried about their kids arm being ruined. If you look at the past roster, EVERY ace has been injured under Cohen and never really recovered. (Scott Green, Greg Dombrowski, Chris Rusin, James Paxton, Nick Kennedy, and now Alex Meyer) Its time for a change in Lexington. This coaching staff can recruit, but they sure do Word Filter ViolationWord Filter ViolationWord Filter ViolationWord Filter Violation players off (and subsequently run kids off), and they cant coach anything out of a wet paper bag. Whats happening is a never ending cycle: recruit great kids, then sitting on their hands and not coaching them.

We will lose ray, bisson, black, nidiffer, glad, farris, wiley, and darnell. not a whole lot returning, not a whole lot coming in. Posted on 5/21 11:11 PM | IP: Logged

All I'm asking is do you think you would still feel this way if your child went to Bellevue instead of NCC? Also, not sure why more Bellevue fans didn't come out to support. It was pretty lonely in the stands. I was talking with a few parents during halftime and they were saying that they heard only 40 presale tickets sold that day. Also, I thought someone mentioned earlier about there being 3 other districts who blind draw. Are they taking abuse too? And last, why doesn't the state classify basketball? There are only 2 states left.

I believe you would have a different opinion if your son/daughter went to Bellevue/Dayton/Newport.

On the other hand, if Bellevue makes their layups, its a ball game in the first half. They had plenty of chances to score and didn't convert on the opportunities. They needed to score while Boone was not hitting and that didn't happen. The second half, it was a different Boone team.

What happened to Doug Miller? The last I heard he was doing a great job as the Freshman coach at CC?

I'm guessing you haven't been associated with a small public school before, because if you had, you would have a totally different opinion. Why is any sport classed then? So you are saying Bellevue/Dayton can compete with Highlands every year. If so, you have NO clue!

I was answering your question as to why NCC is a small school but can compete with the larger schools.

The All 'A' Classic is for the smallest 125 schools in KY. There are not just class 'A' schools in the tournament. Is that correct or was I given bad info?

Agree. And I didn't want it to get to that. I was just stating a fact of why NCC is usually better year in and year out along with being a Class A/AA school. Good Luck to all in the District Tournament. :dancingpa

So, year in and year out, how good would they be if only kids from Newport were on the team? :idunno:

Okay, correct me if I'm wrong. From what I've been told, there are kids who live in Bellevue, Dayton, Newport, Ft. Thomas, and Alexandria who attend NCC. So kids from Bellevue/Dayton are competing against a school with kids from different cities? Take the private/public school part out of it. That's a different issue. How good would NCC be if there would only be kids from Newport who went there? I'm talking year in and year out?

Agree, ALWAYS was not the right word to use. I was just speaking from the time I started following Bellevue. Although, if you have 15 really good kids trying out, and then you have only 5 really good kids trying out for a smaller school, I would think larger school is at an advantage. Just my take.

Isn't NCC in Division 2 in basketball. For some reason I was thinking that the 9th region was broken down in 3 Divisions. With 1 being the larger schools. Maybe I misunderstood? Any help here?

I don't think it's a matter of NEVER thinking they can be a 1 or 2 seed, I think it comes down to year in and year out. With small schools such as Bellevue and Dayton, the talent comes in cycles.

I thought they were 2A. Don't they play 2A in football and track?

I don't have any dogs in the fight. I am good friends with some people from Bellevue so I know what pretty much goes on with sports at Bellevue. I was just giving my opinion.

Sorry, meant 3, 4, or 5 seed.

Do the banners at NCC or Highlands say, 'Because we played a small classs 'A' school to make the region'? I didn't think so!
