Good fight from Boyle to get the win. So glad the Rebels didn't finish the regular season 0-3 heading into post season.

The Rebels hopefully have learned the most valuable lesson in sports. You can be beat by anyone.....and you can beat anyone....on any given night!

You gotta bring it every night!!

Bad bad night for the Rebels. May have been up by 19 during the 2nd quarter.

Wayne never quit. Hit some big 3’s. Got some great help from your typical 12th Region referee crew. And Won the game.

Boyle may very well enter postseason on a 3 game losing streak.

Not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing.

He will make a fine assistant coach for Kentucky next year!

James Weber tweeted that Fredrick was 13/18 from 3 last week.

Several of those guys can knock down the 3....13/18 makes for a good week.

How do you think the district tournaments will play out? Who do you think will win and runner up for each district tourney?

45th: Boyle/Lincoln

46th: Mercer/West Jess

47th: Pulaski/Somerset

48th: Southwest/Flip a coin (I will say Wayne)

By far the best team I have seen this year. No one in the 12th Region can stay with CC. Too much team ball.

Good luck to CC in the postseason.

Cov Cath is by far better than anything the 12th region has to offer.

Walter is a giant

First time all year Bramel has looked small

scratching my head...I am curious what the explanation was to the coach.

Anyone remember the movie back in the 70's? or am I just that old?

Boyle gets to put on their big boy pants Saturday with a matchup vs Covington Catholic.

Quite simply.....Casey is not very good....at all.

Congrats to Baby J!!

22 assist could very well be a school record. That is a bunch.

Here's what I see going on.

 

it's not that coaches aren't "helping" kids get athletic scholarships.

 

it's that coaches are "enabling" situations that hurt a kid's chances of getting eligible. I won't mention names. But you guys know where I'm from. There is a coach down here that produces very good teams with very good players but virtually NONE of them qualify for college. The two school across town continually produces d-1 players. One public, one private.

 

The coach i'm talking about is rumored to make sure his kids can get in classes where their eligibility is never in question. Yet when it comes time to make it through the ncaa clearinghouse, they don't make it...

I think what you are talking about as far as academic eligibility does not fall on the coach as much as it falls on the school admin (aka guidance counselor). Coaches certainly should hold his players accountable for making good grades but counselors are the one who know what the core requirements are to get kids academically eligible for college. So if you are taking underwater basket weaving and not the required English classes....that is not the coaches fault, but the player and schools administrators.

I expect a very vanilla game plan from both coaches. Just roll the ball out there and don’t get hurt is about the only strategy I’d expect to see. I’m not even going to bother to go watch it. #datenight

Yes....my thoughts as well....DONT GET HURT!

I will say from personal experience with my son, he would not haven't gotten the offers he received had it not been for his football coaching staff.

Once he received his first from Marshall, the coaching staff utilized their coaching network to reach out to every contact they had to take a look at my sons Hudl Hilight tape.

From that point on, the phone never stopped ringing. 14 offers later my son made his pick.

But the thing about it is, almost all of those offers had ties back to our coaching staff and relationships they had built over the years.

Take all of that away, we as a family joined a recruiting agency (NCSA). Even without the coaching network, this is a great way to get your name out there. Now I will say you won't get many look from D1 this way, but if your kids aspires to play at the college level, there is a place out there for you to do it. It just may not be a school you have ever heard of.

Just for fun I checked my NCSA email account and currently have 112 unopened emails from schools reaching out to us. NCSA is not cheap.....but it will provide a pathway to play at the next level.

Danville absolutely buzz sawed Garrard. I was very surprised by the score.

I'm guessing the thought of being a 4 seed brought the Ads to their senses.

So now that the district matchup are set, how hard do Danville/Lincoln go at this Friday? Basically, this game determines what color jersey you wear for your tourney matchup.

Without a doubt he is partially right, but since this is boys basketball according to the KHSAA wouldn't it be boy buns they lead the region in.

Normally I would agree but pretty sure everyone at Southwest is at least 18 years old minimum:sssh:

On a side note, I heard Boyle radio announcer Steve Bertram was quoted saying Southwest leads the 12th Region in Man Buns!!:banana::jump::clap:

Probably the best complete game Boyle has played since the holidays. Boyle looked good on both sides of the ball, especially on defense, extending beyond the arc to eliminate 3pt looks for Southwest.

Offensively, Boyle stayed patient and got some really nice looks via back door cuts and strong drives to the basket. Of course it always helps when Slone knocks down his first three 3 pointers.

Reese Smith is an absolutely outstanding basketball player.

I thought Caleb Jackson had his best game of the year. Some key baskets.

All about the haircut!! Great minutes from Caleb.

Yeah but when he isn’t on the floor the offense isn’t as cohesive and we lose the most vocal voice on defense. He also plays safety on defense and is telling everyone what he sees. He’s also made his last 7 free throws which increases his value even more.

As always, your words are wise.

His value to the team on the floor goes far beyond stats. He will be missed greatly all week.

I love when Will is on the floor and not in foul trouble.

I also love when we go small and put 5 shooters on the floor. Sometimes this is exactly what we need.
