This thread is no less ridiculous than when it was started.

No tears at all. Most of NKY know what I'm talking about. It's always amazing to watch the refs call completely different second halfs against opponents when they are challenging for a win or to keep it close.

I see. Gosh, I thought CCH's success was due to talent, coaching and hard work. How dare I be so delslusional. I didn't realize the refs from around KY were helping too. Thanks for setting me straight.

I guess the refs that officiated the Cooper, Trinity, and Holy Cross regular season games were not from KY or didn't attend the proper pre-season classes.

96 tears.

Bigs came to play and Muskies had 24 assists against 10 turnovers. Great ball game.

Congrats to Coach Macke and the Holy Cross freshman team. The 35th District will be strong over the next several years.

CCH is in a great spot, but I think dynasty talk is nuts. They will be in a dog fight (no pun intended) to get out of the district, let alone region. They have some great pieces, an awesome pipeline, and a man that can coach the leather off a basketball, but, there is solid high school talent elsewhere in NKY and tons of motivated kids and coaches that would love nothing better than to beat Cov Cath.

I'm with Clyde, Lawnboy, and others, I think CCH 11-15 would be a competitive team in the 9th region. Not necessarily for the title but better than a lot of varsity teams. The school is at an all time high basketball wise. They are better than HHS 1-5. Look at the names. Some of these kids started as Frosh and JV and are now relegated to the bench. A lot are Soph- Juniors who already handled their HHS counterparts in Freshman/JV ball.

 

 

It's an embarrassment of riches right now at CCH.

 

 

 

It's hard to get minutes on this team.

Several sophs from last year's undefeated team didn't even come out this year. Probably good decisions all around, but, the intramural league is loaded, yet again.

X needs to remind Nova that they aren't in Philly. I wouldn't mind a couple of early hard fouls. X by 5.

What was the JV result if anybody attended?

CCH by 19 or 20

CCH JV won 58-52. Finished the year with 1 loss.

No JV game vs Highlands tomorrow night?

Is that Donny Bieger's kid?

Yes

Frosh?

Yes

Final from Taylor Mill

Impressive GPA.

I get it. Joe obviously had a role in producing content that has offended or embarrassed (or both) some folks. My guess is some of the Boone folks took it in stride and some didn't. Heck, for all I know, this has bothered you more than anyone, but that's just what I see on BGP - I don't do Twitter.

Knowing him, it was not his intent. Unfortunately, intent wasn't conveyed, so we're left to speculate. He lives in a world where his mistakes (if in fact this was a mistake) are magnified - goes with the territory.

I have seen him do a lot of good work, on BOTH sides of the river, and at schools that do not have the initials, CCH. He works extremely hard in a tough industry and does his best to cover our great high school sports environment in the area.

Good for you for sharing your feedback to him. I know he listens. We all have room for improvement, provided we're open to criticism.

Not true, I was on the X sideline the whole game. Other than razing the CCH for their disappearing act in the cheering

Section they were doing standard HS cheers. But regardless my problem is not w/ cheering section it's with a sports reporter for a major Cincy network thinking it was funny to embarrass HS kids! I don't know one kid that plays on Boone County!! All I know, thanks to fox19Joe Twitter account is they must really, really suck!

We'll have to agree to disagree on CCH/St X - I was there too. It was a simple Bronx cheer - no words, no chants, just like last night. I had NO problem with what X did either and still don't.

Regarding Joe, you're entitled to your opinion. Criticism goes with the job.

He's a first class guy that probably made a mistake, but highly unlikely he had insidious intentions. I will defend him as vigorously as you criticize, because I have seen all the good he does.

Got no problem w/ the student section got problem w/ fox19joe not understanding he works for a major Cincy network!

I'm not gonna debate whether the tweet should have been posted. I can understand the frustration there and can understand why it probably would have been best left off social media. But, two things are certain:

1. Joe is well aware of who he works for, and works darn hard at it, by the way.

2. You certainly took a jab at CCH in your frustration and absolutely insinuated that St X has more class than CCH.

My contention is that EVERY student section in Greater Cincinnati would have reacted the same in that situation - just like CCH last night and just like St X did when CCH finally earned a first down after giving up 57 points.

You can choose to disagree.

This past football season St. X Cin. beat CCH 57-7. Don't remember Fox Joe using his Twitter account to show his many followers just how bad his CCH team got routed. Don't remember the X cheering section mocking CCH play in a self aggrandizing manner either. Oh, that's right X has more class than that!

 

Really not cool for a sports reporter to embarrass HS athletes..EVER. I am absolutely amazed that CCH Joe posted this on Twitter. Shame on you Joe!

St X students absolutely, positively mocked the CCH football team, on multiple occasions throughout the game. Had a great viewpoint from across the field. I had no problem with it either, because it was their student section doing the mocking. You know what the solution is? Score more points! No cryin here! Get over yourself.

Has a boy/girl sweep happened before at All A or Sweet 16? If not, any close calls?

Murray boys and girls going for All A sweep?

Valid points on the lack of gym time for some of the football/soccer playing hoops players. On the bright side, it only takes 2-3 kids to turn things around and, HHS has a great coach. I have a strong feeling things will turn soon in Ft. Thomas. With that said, I am sure the existing team will continue to bust tail to get better and will give maximum effort for Coach L. Lot of hoops left for this year's team.

Schreiver doesn't appear to be on 2016 roster. Transfer maybe?

As I recall, the Middle School team with Hall / Pangallo, et al was very good (not sure which school?). It seems many were saying they would lead NCC with great results. I know they beat the CCH trio (Mayer/Ruthsatz/Lenihan) a few times (8th grade). Is that class still in tact? (I am not overly familiar with the NCC guys). If so, the idea of a well-balanced team with a lot of experience together, may better serve the program than recent years with more individual type star players.

Ancient history, but SPX and Holy Trinity split two games in the 8th grade. HT beat SPX in the semis of the St Henry tourney in Nov. SPX returned the favor in the Diocesan Championship game in March. Fun games for sure.

Love the Housh idea. How fun would that be?

When is it time to move on from Mick?
