Really liked the book, enjoyed the movie also. Would definitely recommend. I've read some reviews, but think that some critics (websites) of the movie may not have been too familiar with the book.

I went in with some reservation on how it would translate to film, but had several laughs and thought it was entertaining throughout. Whether someone has read the book or not, it's still a pretty good movie.

Don't know much (or anything, really) about East Jessamine, but seems like a solid start for HC under new leadership. Might take time, but putting up points and competing in their first outing is a pretty good start for the Thorobreds

No way Kendall looks with what he has in the cupboard at Harrison.

Agree that Kendall isn't an option, how does the cupboard look for Bourbon?

Any front-runners in mind?

Why the turnover in coaches? The football program is doing well.

Any news from Franklin Co? Definitely a good job, should have a lot of interest from high quality coaches.

Great Coach, Great Person. Congrats to him and to Rowan Co.

Maybe not a single play, but my first thought is Reggie Miller's 8 points in 9 seconds vs. the Knicks.

Congrats to Owen Co. Where can you find a full list? Can someone post a link?

It seems like the the 10th has recently been pulled in different directions. GRC and Montgomery should stay. The only change to the 10th should bringing Fleming back to the 10th, otherwise leave it as it is.

I don't understand the numerous posts bashing an official. If you don't like him or his officiating that's understandable, just give your opinion once and move on.

Back to the subject, Is there a full list of officials posted somewhere?

No love for the Breds? I'll say HC by 5

Any ideas on who will replace him?

Is this official?

Nice win for Anderson! Surprised by this score... Any details?

I own a pit and know a couple of people who do as well. I have owned very smart dogs in the past and have found that these dogs are as smart as they come. The ignorance of owners often time cause all of the negative reponse for their breed.

I understand they have an instinct that requires owners to be as well trained as their dogs. I wish there were as many articles about helping pits as there are about banning them.

Any dog can be trained to be violent, it's sad that this breed has been the favorite of morons.

You haven't been around long enough. There used to be scores more of other posters on here that added to the mix.

 

Used to be large groups of Boyle County, Danville, Breathitt County, Mason County, Conner, Trinity(yes more than there are now), St. X, Male, Manual, Seneca and others.

 

I do miss some of the variety that used to be on here, the problem is that many of the formerly dominant programs have fallen somewhat so the enthusiasm of their posters has waned or disappeared.

Obvious response is... Does success lead to more input from BGPer's? Does this help a program or cause too much unrest from the ability to post on an open forum?

( I prefer to think that most posts on this site are meant for positive reasons or in the best needs of a program, despite the few negative posts )

Congrats to Woodside

Where is Piarist?

Do you think coaches prefer many posts about their team/program (shows interest, often times supportive of program), or do you think they're happy to see their thread fizzle out?

Wow! Now THAT'S getting it done.

Thanks for sharing.

Impressive career!

Coach Reitz had a 2 week tenure 10 years ago. He is around 40 games away from winning 600. He is about 10-15 games away from coaching in 1000 games. Any school should be happy to have a coach of that caliber, even Pendleton County.

Great Coaching career. Just curious, where do you find these stats?

Also, I've seen Coach Wise on the sidelines, he should be a finalist.

Coach Kendall will do a great job. He knows this group of kids better than anyone else. Best of luck to the new Coach.

Congratulations to North Laurel and Coach Sizemore. Impressive accomplishment

Rainman is right on the money. Wise is a good coach, and his resume speaks for itself. Montgomery Co. is in good hands.

10th region didn't quite turn out as everyone predicted, but the big dogs made it back to the top. Congrats to Mason Co. Should be a great game tomorrow night!

70's ended ck, different generation.

I've got to agree w CK. Kid's who play against older, tougher competition can really improve their game... Sometimes the adversity from these games (atmosphere, a little pressure, proving themselves..) really develop a player. Street ball is different from organized basketball, but a lot of times kids improve their skills from playing tough games like these. It's not a knock on AAU, but a contrast that can help a lot of players. A lot of players pass up those who are able to play AAU during this age. Of course, it's up to the players to find the competition and be able to keep organized ball as their focus.

I'm sure that kid feels bad enough... Poor judgement by a kid in a split-second situation. It didn't look to be intentional (in terms of hurting someone). Hopefully both get through this, like GS said, hate for any kid to get hurt.

I am not associated with either party. I do understand the frustration of Henry Co. fans, they lost a great Coach... Ray Graham is a great person and someone you want running a program. He is a great role model for young students. I'm guessing he went full-blown into a new job, but he also had ties w/ students at a school where he wanted to teach. Good luck to both programs
