Jimmy Chitwood: I play, coach stays. He goes, I go. Coach Norman Dale: Strap, God wants you on the floor. Wilbur 'Shooter' Flatch: Alright, boys, this is the last shot we got! We're gonna run the picket fence at 'em! Jimmy, you're solo right! Everett, Merle should be open on the other side of that fence! Now, boys, don't get caught watchin' the paint dry!

I saw Potsie, Joanie and Ralph Malph at the game the other night. They wouldn"t let Chachie in.

Enjoy the game Richie Cunningham.

Why they are playing this game in a rathole is beyond me.

Darn it. My Holmes Bulldogs always count on a win against them at Rupp.

I thought this was a sports forum.

Someone needs to do an audit on those ping-pong balls. At least they switch it up and do upper bracket one year and lower bracket the next. LOL!

No, Richmond should be their goal.

Thanks for punching us Bulldogs in the mouth at Rupp. :laugh::laugh:

To bad he doesn't have the talent Princeton has. :laugh:

GRC should be up there. Heck they beat a team the other night by 55. That is how we should measure teams by margin of victory, it worked out so well for Elliott County last year. I know that will help them in the Cantrell rankings as well which are also very accurate. :clap::popcorn:

It is the best Mr. Cantrell can do. His expense account obviously doesn't allow him outside of New Circle Road. :laugh::laugh:

These rankings were very accurate last year, lol. :laugh::laugh: I think they had two teams in the top 10 that didn't make it to Rupp and four teams ranked ahead of Holmes heading into Rupp. Way to much emphasis on margin of victory, i.e. Elliott County last year. Lot of good all those points for their starters and very limited playing time for their bench did them come Sweet Sixteen time. BGP rankings a little more accurate even though it is all a crap shoot sometimes.

Beware of us Princeton Vikings!!

Four games in four days didn't seem to bother the Bulddogs. If I remember correctly they played four games in three days last march and did okay as well.

Two words Elijah Pittman.

One Hit Wonders like "Come On Eileen" by Dexy's Midnight Runners. I miss ole Dale.:cool:

Was there a natural disaster in Eastern Kentucky? Elliott County and there fans seem to have fallen off the face of the earth.

Going into the 9th region tournament there will be several posts that will make a case that Boone, Highlands, Newport and even CovCath has a legit chance to make it to Rupp. They will contend that Holmes is not disciplined enough or that they lost too much from last year's team. Some may even contend that henley doesn't know what he is doing and simply has superior talent and that is why Holmes wins. In the end the Bulldogs will make it four in a row on there way to another strong run at the state title. See you at Rupp, go Dawgs.

It is only December, lets back track a little. 2006/2007 9th region champs state semi-finals, lost to state champs. 2007/2008 9th region champs state finals 2008/2009 9th region champs state champs I think Dave Henley knows what he is doing, enough said. See you at Rupp in March, I already made three nights of hotel reservations. Go Dawgs.

I have seen hundreds of Holmes games and I think a shot block record may have been set last night. I think this was the difference in the game. Does anyone have stats on how many blocked shots Holmes had? I give Newport credit they kept going inside and their shots kept going back out. Pittman was a beast.

Holmes hasn't played uptempo since 1980.

I hope he gets out coached all the way to Lexington again this year. John Wooden was terrible as well.

Euton couldn't start or Holmes much less D1.

Overconfidence will be Holmes Lex Luther next year, overcoming themselves will be their task.
