Should Districts be Seeded?
Ok it is easy for everybody to get on here and bash the schools that prefer not to seed but......................you do not ask football teams frm 1A schools to play Trinity so why are you making them do that in basketball? Seeding is fine as long as you classify (4 classes preferably). But again we are asking schools to not only to be put with schools 5 times their size but to also play them in the regular season and then play them again in the district when you seed. The blind draw allows those schools to not have to play them in regular season if they so choose and possibly avoid the largest schools in the district draw. Why.............................would a school the size of Dayton (just an example) vote to seed and be stuck playing Highlands and NCC in regular season as well as having to play one of those two every year in the first round of the district tourney. Those of you criticizing need to realize that schools need to do what is best for them and not what is best for your school.

Should Districts be Seeded?
Districts should be seeded in conjunction with the KHSAA classifying basketball. Until they classify basketball then the seeding of districts is a joke. No school that has a 9-12 enrollment of 200 should be competing with a school with a 9-12 enrollment of 1,200.

Holy Cross Freshman Tournament
Well........................by your long pause in your comment I assume you are stating something was being taught you did not agree with. But then you go on to say "The varsity guys might interject a vocal accompaniment, as most do...." I can say that yes I have seen it taught to provide a sound when taking a charge although "yelling and screaming" certainly would not be part of that.........Rather it would be no different than a football player makign a sound as he makes a hit. Maybe teaching toughness was part of that process. Seems like we have a huge difference of opinion with someone saying it is definitely taught and you saying definitely not taught. Do not see where it really matters. The point being the lost art of taking a charge was taught at Brossart for a long time with coaches doing it in fashions they deemed correct........even prior to 1997 or as you have stated so well in other posts prior to the "Brossart modern era" of 1997 to the current.

How are tournament brackets set?
You can start with the above statement for most tourneys. IF you are playing the host school in first round you know what they think of your team. Some times a team will request to not play a certain team in the first round (already playing them, from their state, from their conference, etc) as a stipulation to accepting an invite. When you go to a tournament you know what to expect so if you do not like the teams in it do not go. Many times teams will wait a little and see who all is in a tourney before deciding if they want to call and place themselves in that tournament. Especially smaller schools who do not want to end up in a tourney like a lloyd. On paper lloyd is a 2A school so you might figure all like schools....but in reality it is loaded with larger schools every year. But you know that if you go to the Mike Swauger Tournament in Bellevue chances are you will get three other class A schools to play (except the year a certain local school decided to not play in it at the last minute and North College Hill took their spot at the last minute!!!!!!!!!!!).

Age Limit: KY vs Indiana
Hoops 5 your point is exactly why I hate the parents who do it for the wrong reasons. Many students (particularly boys) are too immature at a young age and need extra help, etc. The fact that there are parents who abuse the system for athletics makes me very angry. Good luck with your son!!!!!!!! And yes I too have a child with a Sept. birthday who was not ready for school and needed more maturity. I am glad we waited to send him as he still struggles slightly academically.

Age Limit: KY vs Indiana
The flip side of the this is those that intentionally "hold kids back" so they have an athletic advantage. Now I know very specifically of parents who have done this and I find it nauseating. First a kid starts late because they have a close birthday to 10/1 and Kentucky does not enforce you have to start if your birthday is in August so the kid is already older................then he gets held back a year in elementary so that he can be bigger and stronger and in some cases almost 2 years older than many of the kids in his class. That is just as bad as the I think my kid is advanced so i start my kid early. Both types ofd parents are detremental to their own kids.

Dayton's new Head Football Coach is.................
First the Wing T was a big part of the Charlie Coleman package. Second Chad is going to do an outstanding job and in the long run Bellevue is going to be second guessing themselves for not hiring him last year instead of the current coach that they have. Third..................the only down side is the negative impact on the baseball program if he does not keep the baseball job.

Bellevue 86 Dayton 64
You know I find Tom Dilts to be a pretty good guy. Now I have not coached against him but I have always found him to be pleasant and good to deal with on his Saturday league. What precipitated thsi issue last year that caused people to think he was running up a score?

Reinhart Returns In 2011
Not knowing Coach Reinhart and never having seen him coach, I am looking at two things. One is the program itself. It has made good strides quickly as a fledgling program. The other is the discussion on here about the profanity he uses. It seems that some are saying he uses a lot and I do not really see that being refuted by those defending him. That is obviously something that if the adminisiration does not like it can be dealt with. I know the AD has coached (very succesfully I might add) and profanity has never been a part of his dealings with his athletes. The use of profanity is not really necessary to be successful........but for some coaches it is part of their language. Having said that some of the statements on here make him seem overboard.

Bellevue vs Beechwood predictions
Scrimmages mean nothing.................However good point on the record of who Beechwood beat.

Bellevue vs Beechwood predictions
No offense to Bellevue as they have gotten off to a good start and Norman seems to be playing great. However the combined record of the teams they have beaten is 1-16 with the only win being Silver Grove's win over Latin. Beechwood a much better team than the ones they have been playing.......................

Bishop Brossart vs Campbell County 12/11
Man modern history started in the 1997-98 season In the 1996-97 version of the game was one of the most lopsided ever with Brossart defeating Campbell County at the Middle school (which was the high school) by a very large margin!!!!!

Campbell County Has Their Coach
There is no "posting of job" rule for classified positions from a state standpoint. However for teaching positions there is a 30 day rule. Since many times the coaching and teaching jobs go hand in hand you get a 30 day window before hiring a coach due to the fact that they hired that person as a teacher as their primary job. Everytime this happens some body posts that they violated the "30 day rule." Now there are times that the 30 day rule does not apply even for a teaching position. After a certain date in the summer it does not apply due to the fact that school would be starting soon. You can get emergency waivers from KDE during the school year to not wait 30 days for an unexpected opening, etc.

Brossart 81 Silver Grove 37
They are in Div. III of the NKAC................................................ Further Bracken County is not exactly a power house and so that causes great concern that they were blown out of the gym in that game as well..............................................................
