Owensboro guard play will be the factor of this one. we know what Miller and Holman will bring!

this was painful to watch. 2-20 from the 3 mostly uncontested attempts too. OHS bigs had there way. Guard play was very good for OHS. With Ballard falling out I don't see anyone matching up well with OHS they should clearly be able to win the 'ship!

Poor Collins just out gunned in every aspect of the game. Friday will be interesting bc Owensboro really outsizes everyone but if the guard play is tested I think they have a tough day with hopkinsville and that style of play.

No knock to tc. But like I previously said they are a year or two from winning in #theRupp great team. But I wasn't impressed by there record it's 0-0 this week and about experience. I think hhs will speed up Owensboro and run those bigs tongues or their mouth Friday night.

From what I understand and hear the whole state knows they play full court, man to man or a full court pressure type defense. I am guessing you stick with it. And even though it killed them last year vs trinity. ride or die time!

gotta ride with the defending state champs when they return to defend the title!

Doss DOSS Doss DOSS Doss strength of schedule has them more ready than the small A opponent

4 words... WEAK DISTRICT WEAKER REGION now u just talking to be talking no one said hoptown and easy win, nothing I heard either. So why would Hayworth leave a loaded program like hoptown for unheard of bryan station? he was once a college ast id think that would be the goal to return to the college level?

True I almost forgot about the Ballard transfer. It will be a good game. Just like Collins and Owensboro should be equally good. People are funny with their all caps and mixed up facts bahaha. ANYWAY I GOT MY TICKETS SO I WILL BE IN THE BUILDING LOWER LEVEL!

Okay I see what youre saying but I saw the film and Webster looked dead in the fourth just last week. I suspect Hopkinsville will be able to wear down Taylor co 7 especially when the film ive seen on Taylor appears to have a big talent dropoff at 6 & 7.

get your facts straight they lost the KOB tourney CHAMPIONSHIP to a team out of DC 59-56 then beat Henderson in that one game KOB classic 2 months later AND.... talk about confused the freshman were on the roster at Rupp last year as 8th graders check that I believe Cager scored against South Oldham last year. Something to me about seniors first time or not and the rest of the team having experience ( you call in struggles) in Rupp vs NONE AT ALL!

I vote for Justice... numbers don't lie and I think a major criteria should be carrying your team to #theRupp

Smithhart is classless. He can have his 2 little regional coach of the year awards sitting right there at home with him and his team this week. Theres just something flawed with the system but hey attitude is reflected by leadership. This guy ran away from/ or was run out of Christian County and hasn't done nothing special in Hendo. 27-4 its that impressive without a trip to #theRupp .

Not taking anything from Taylor county but I think they are 1-2 yrs away from playing into the 2nd round. Hoptown will speed them up and make them do things they don't usually do. I still say Hoptown by 12 maybe 14-17.

But can they play 32 mins? And what do they have passed starting 5? 6,7,8? Hoptown can go 10 deep, and in that starting 5 3-4 legit double digit scorers with a couple of capable scores in that 2nd five. Tyler sparked em late against Webster and probably no one saw that coming, he didn't even play vs Hendo. I don't know another team in the 16 that can easily go 7,8,9 deep and still get good defense and point production like a Hoptown. Is this Taylors first trip? Rupp is big with bright lights you say that's not a factor but it truly is.
