You're leaving out a player that just broke the state record in the most points scored and the most free throws made in a game. Dominique Compton of Green County may be one of the quickest players in the state. He's a player that seems to be a secret.

You are exactly right! Because of this, there really is no glory in achieving this title. I think it's preposterous that a small group of people get to determine who carries this title.

Green County has a guard by the name of Dominique Compton. He scored 48 points of which he hit 32 out of 39 free throws against Shelby Valley in the opening round of the Class A State. I've watched Quintin Goodin from Taylor County play. He's an all-around player who is heading to Xavier after he graduates. I'm sure both of these players are well-deserving by not just their talent on the court, but their attitude off the court as well as their academic focus. I know that one of the players mentioned in an earlier post has a dad that is superintendent. This player has been known by numerous sources to have a negative disposition on the court and displaying bad sportsmanship. I would sure hope that whoever gets named Mr. Basketball would not earn the title due to a family member's influence. That's the impression I'm getting. I'm sure their are many worthy Mr. Basketball candidates, but biased factors should not have any part of the selection.
