Open Job: Montgomery County
Our previous administration took this approach to new hires and old fires. It didn't work out real well for them. I'm only interested in the best coach getting picked, your never going to make everyone happy I get that. If the big tuna and the superintendent are going to hire who they want no matter what 90% of the hiring committee recommends, then they need to stop the committee process. Remove all transparency from the process.

Open Job: Montgomery County
Do other schools use a committee for hires like this? If the committee comes back 4 to 1 for a candidate, and the candidate is not the principal or AD's choice what should happen now? If schools are just having these committees to appease people, then why waste their time. If I'm a principal or AD I want as many people picking the best canidate as I can find. Like you said you want the best decision for the kids. If 10 people pick candidate #1, an me and the AD pick candidate #4, don't you think this looks a little odd?

10th Region Tournament Postponed
Good decision, side roads are a little slippery and its still snowing. Trying to race to that 6pm game after work would have been a little scary.

Open Job: Montgomery County
So the principal and the AD are going thru a stack of applicants and conveniently pickout "their guy" along with 4 weak canidates, throwing out 7 or 8 strong candidates. After interviewing the 5 candidates, "their guy" is the best. He is hired, the cycle continues. If you want to hire your friend, the cute girl, your cousin, your college buddy then start your own business. Transparency when working for the tax payers is a good practice to follow. If you can't operate in the open you need to get out of education.

Montgomery County/Pendleton County predictions (10th Region Quarterfinals)
It has been snowing here for about 2 hours, if the temperatures will rise a few degrees we should be ok. If not, this could be a mess.

Open Job: Montgomery County
Note to Franz and Letcher, You work for me and the rest of the tax payers in Montgomery co. Transparency is the best way when working for the tax payer. If hiring committees are going to be used you must allow them some voice, (6-2) If not then why waste the people's time? You know the same people who pay your salaries, the tax payer. If you can't operate above board, please start your own company and feel free to hire anyone you like. I'm amazed that this is going on after what just transpired at our school system. If Sizemore is the best canidate then he should be hired, if he's not then we are right back to the good ole boy days at Montgomery co schools.

Montgomery County/Pendleton County predictions (10th Region Quarterfinals)
After the 31 point loss to moco , if PC beats moco that will be a huge upset. One team is lead by a freshman the other is senior dominated, a moco loss would be a massive upset.

Scott/Augusta predictions (10th Region Quarterfinals)
This should be the best first round game. Carr slows the game down, but its not enough, Augusta 58 scott 52

Moco by 24 84 / 60 Pendelton just don't matchup well against moco.

Who wins the 10th region?
An extreme advantage.

Who wins the 10th region?
To my paris fan friends: Paris is clearly better than moco. They have beaten them 3 times. Home, away and neutral floor. If you don't think thats the better team, your a serious homer. Paris and Campbell are really tough matchups for moco. It's hard to beat a team 3 times, I picked moco because a 4th loss to Paris would be extremely hard to pull off by paris.

10th Region Bracket
Hell's a little strong for mt sterling, but if works for you, that's cool. I to loved all the games at BOK, obviously a longer drive, but great seats and a college feel that I think all the kids would remember the rest of their lives. Plus a neutral floor to boot. I'm all for having it there every year.

Who wins the 10th region?
Based on the draw and the home court advantage I'm picking Moco over Paris by 12 in the finals.

10th Region Bracket
Yes please come in droves, so we turn people away. That horse was beat to death on here when moco first hosted. "The gym is to small" I've been to every moco hosted region since the new gym was built and I've never seen the gym near capacity. I to look forward to watching games at the new GRC facility. It should be a fantastic facility if everything is done that is being planned.

Dude'ett.

Paris/Moco 40th District Championship Prediction
^^^^^ Bruh, the dudes got a point. I like this moco squad, but they have to win something first, before I can talk crazy stuff.
-
Paris/Moco 40th District Championship Prediction
If moco is able to play m2m 95% of the game, they will win easily. There's no way they can contain dribble penetration from all 5 paris kids. This game is only about bragging rights, the draw Saturday morning is more important than this game. Moco and Paris are two of the teams that can win the region. I wouldn't be suprised to see both these teams in the finals.

Augusta 63 Mason County 61 (39th District Championship)
To better prove your point, pull the same stats against other local teams and out of region. Is the Augusta games simply an outlier or is it the norm when teams play mason. Of course all teams are not built the same. Augusta is an has been small, thus a lot more dribbling and attacking. Hard to compare, but I love antylitics in the morning.

Augusta 63 Mason County 61 (39th District Championship)
Great hs basketball game. I'm honestly not sure at the drawing this morning who you want out of this district. This could have been a huge wakeup call for mason.

Montgomery County 61 George Rogers Clark 49 (40th District Semifinals)
^^^^^^^ Goldy, How in the world is there no junior basketball players in a school the size of GRC? That's crazy.
-
Elliott County 65 Morgan County 53 (62nd District Semifinals)
If Morgan could have gotten an easier first round game (and won) I thought they had a chance to make a run at morehead. However, it would have been extremely hard to win three games in a row with 2 guys taking 84% of the shots, that is a crazy stat.
