This is my first post on thie message board. I get on here and read from time to time. I am a Scott County parent that has sat back and watched this situation grow into a monster. I am here to let you know where 75% of the Scott County parents stand on this issue. We are disheartened that our sons have spent countless hours, trips to the emergency room for stitches from diving into bleachers and given up and sacrificed for this program. Our kids went 33-6 in 8th grade, 25-10, and only lost 6 games as freshman. They were coached by an outstanding coach (Lisa and Casey Sparrow)that truly cared for them and teaching them about life and basketball. They can play ball too when given the chance and would start for a lot of teams in the state. They have now been pushed to the end of the bench. There is NO loyalty. Don't get me wrong if they could not play and were not hard workes it would be different but they aren't. I know that middle school ball is not a predictor of high school ability. But I also know that there are a few of these kids that should have been given a chance. I can also tell you that when my son played the "Patriots" in AAU (we were playing for Scott County) There was a comment made that those 3 young men in question would transfer to Scott County for high school ball to become teammates of those they were playing against at the time. This comment was made from one of their parents to another parent at the time. I know this for a fact. This was a planned thought out move. I also know that some Scott County parents are so angry they are ready to turn everything they know in to the KHSAA. One already has. Take this post for what you want.
