Bengal Maniac

Well JJ, I knew him as Tommy, good field no hit type of player. Little short guy and am shocked that his gene pool produced this good an athlete. Her mommy must be a star. In clarification, I had no idea she was his daughter until I took my dad to the doctor a couple of weeks ago and he told me. I left Okolona in 1972 and have only been back to visit and both my mom and my dad live in the Louisville area. So it has been a long time since I saw him. He was a few years younger (not much) and he more played with my younger brother's teams than mine. He may or may not have been on my team, but I played against him if he wasn't. I am happy for the family , though. I am sure she is a great kid. I would imagine Tommy looks different than he was at 15 or 16 when I saw him last.

Is it possible for a coach to do all the right things, but not have the talent to carry out the plan?

I played Little League baseball with her father. Good luck to her.

Hopefully the Bulldogs will come out and reel them in. They have had these games where they struggle to score, but I'd bet FC has something to do with it, also.

They are on pace for 33+ this year. Doesn't appear to be a significant difference. Seems to be who is playing.

I think you are punch drunk now, Nostra

Did you see a public/private school difference in discipline, resources, parental pressure?

I was telling the three guys I was sitting with all the good things about him, the D-1 interest, etc. They kept saying they did not see that. They didn't this game.

He was fairly active in the two minutes of the game. He had a couple of good rebounds and he drove to the basket and was fouled, I think. Then disappeared. If I had to guess, it was very early.

Baker not Brown, my bad. I hate getting names wrong.

...but when they have the Brown kid according to other threads, they are a much different team. A much better team.

I would think the Eagles are the last team the Camels wanted to play in the regional final. Camels by 3.

Great for you, but kinda' sad you never have been.

Yes, but I think people realize this is the venue to use in a very highly populated area. They would have turned 3-4K away anywhere else. Just can't do that. Parking is still the only problem I see. I had to walk a long ways to get to the gym. They will have to up their game with that aspect with the crowds the Bearcats will probably draw.

Big play and I still am not sure how he did that.

Huge crowd. My guess in the 7-8K range.

Big time players come to play at big times.

Interesting game to say the least. Really impressed the the Jags stayed with their game plan after getting down 11-1. The Jags were really jittery the first 5 minutes, then they took control of the game by controlling the tempo. CVH really kept the Colonels in the game with three straight treys to begin the 3rd. Coach Sullivan called a TO after the 3rd one and I thought he'd get out of the zone. He stayed with it and that was brilliant. They came out on CVH and the rest of the Colonels were off. AJ Mayer also played well especially in the hustle category and offensive rebounds. Other than that CCH showed nothing. The Jags stayed the course and Kunkel got warmed up after forcing a few things early with the rest of them. The Jags must have deflected and got their hands on dozen passes. They made nothing easy for the Colonels. All the starters payed really well, I mean really well. Although Kunkel was very good, he was not the whole show by a long shot. I felt Runion hit key shots throughout. This is a team that can win it all. The only thing I see hurting them is they only played 6 kids primarily. I don't know if that is normal, but depth counts in the state tourney. They will be tough to beat. Congrats!!

I may be there at Wednesday and Thursday evening sessions.

Yes to Skyline. Parking can be difficult, use the parking garage IMO. If you arrive for the late sessions between 5:30-6:30PM it is an absolute mess if classes are in session. Otherwise, not too bad. I think it is great place to watch a game.

Tough for any team to lose. It's the joy and the absolute heartbreak of tournament play.

Looks like a walk.

I listened to the first half of this one driving to Woodson Bend for the weekend. It was nip and tuck and sounded like Cozart was lights out. Listened to the ending of Harlan County/Lynn Camp another dandy with the Black Bears pulling it out at the end. I miss the radio calls in NKY. These were awesome.
