  1. Not sure what happened on my attempt to reply to Mooremiller post. I was trying to say that Mike Allen only played 3 years of varsity because in the late 80s high school students attended high school from 10th to 12th grade, freshman were still in junior high, and Mike did played his junior high basketball at Winburn and did not play high school as a freshman. Which makes his point total even more impressive......sorry for the previous post that is cut off, I will try to delete it

  2. Lexington Catholic

    Mort Fraley-mid to late 60s, played at UK

     

    Danny Haney-Was schools all time leading scorer at one time, played at EKU and coached the Knights to only state championship in 2002

     

    Frank Kornet-led team to 1985 sweet sixteen, played at Vanderbilt, and 2 seasons for the Milwaukee Bucks

     

    Demetrius Green-MVP of only state championship team

     

    Others considered-Shawn Fields, Vee Sanford, David Graves, Davon Davis

  3. This also helps to show that you don't have to attend XYZ National Super Prep to get noticed as some people think/will lead you to believe. UK going to little Pendleton Co. to look at a kid. If you are good enough, they will find and come to YOU.

     

    Well they "found" him bc he plays AAU on the shoe circuit. Its not like they were scouting him at the Pendleton Co/Robertson Co game! Sure, they drove to Falmouth to go check him out, but that's not where he was "found".

  4. Game didn't matter one bit. It did not effect seeding. It gives them an L...that's it. Big deal, this is their best record in years. They have been fantastic this season. The only effect I can see is positive rather than negative. He honored the kids that gave years to that program. Kids that went to 100s of practices, ran 1000s of sprints, etc... If these kids were special needs kids we put the game on SportsCenter and he is a hero. But, since they are normal HS kids who fought for 4 years the coach gets blasted for letting them play 8 minutes? Wow. Tough crowd. Brooks has done more for that program than anyone lately. They were a joke before he got there. Kudos Coach!

  5. This is the 2nd time you've gone after someone who has tried to praise a coach, AD, school or whoever for doing the right thing. Why is that?

     

    Because I don't believe someone should be praised for DOING THE RIGHT THING. Never heard anyone praise coaches because their kids were ineligible. Blows my mind.

     

    I like Tommy. Have no problem with him at all. Feel free to praise him for putting up with everything that goes into being the Bryan Station coach. But this isn't an issue of him doing a heroic act. He had no choice.
