  1. Thats what I was referring to, the seasonal all region team. Brents is ineligible this year, correct? That's why I didn't mention him.
  2. Well, the way I see it, is the Harmons think they ought to receive special treatment. He has transferred EACH of the last 4 years. And been blatant about it, or at least his father has. Yes, he is a very good player, but he should have to obey the rules, somewhat, at least as much as everyone else. Coming out and announcing that he's taking his talent to here or there??! Saying here's a list of schools that he's considering?? Just way too much...
  3. Prep school, or somewhere much larger than where he is at. Wouldn't surprise me at all for him to leave the state.
  4. Good write up! While I'll agree with most everything that is in the article, one key factor for Barren in coach Warren Cunningham. There's not a better coach in the region. The 15th district will be awesome, every district game will count!!
  5. I disagree, a lot. The age is not an issue, he made the US team as the youngest player, all region, all state tourney team, and playing 17u EYBL. Do you know how good you have to be to do that?? I seen him play 5 or 6 times last year, and I can see where you get your impression... he doesnt force anything. But at the end of the game he will have 16-18 points, 6 or 7 assists, and 2 or 3 steals. And that was on a very talented team! I don't think he's KY/Duke good, but who knows what will happen the next 4 years...
  6. Yes, I agree he is a very good coach. But look at the talent level that he has had. A lot of coaches in the state, (probably 10 or 15) if they were to have the talent that he had probably would have won state title more than once. Terry Taylor, Kyran Jones, DeAngelo Wilson, Zion Harmon, even Trey Jones would have been super stars on other teams, possibly region player of the year if in another region. DG was very good at managing all the egos and a good coach. But for me, he was 3rd best in the region.... just my opinion. A great high school coach takes 1 or 2 ball players, and then a handful of average athletes and wins with them. Not a college roster and wins...
  7. Metcalfe is where she plays. I understand the argument of she doesn't play against the best, but you can't really hold that against her. The numbers she puts up are'nt from 30 shots a game, Matter of fact, she's been in the top 20 in FG&FT% nearly all the year. She is the best girls player that I've seen this year. Shouldn't be penalized for going to a small school. And yes it will be hard for her to get votes out of the region.
  8. Mackenzie Coleman... 6-3" triple teamed ever night and still averages 29 & 16. 6 points away from 3000 for career, can score down low or shoot 3s.
  9. Will Bandy- AAU- WKY Elite- HS- Barren County 6-5 wing, rebounds well, shoots the 3
  10. BG is the favorite, and have the talent and depth to win it all at the state level. But, its a one game season from here on out, anything can happen at tourney time. There are 4 or 5 teams capable of playing with the purples on one given night. If it was a best of 3 even, then book the rooms. Too many good players to rule everyone else out.
  11. Too soon to be booking rooms... They are the favorite, but they just beat Warren Central by a basket on their home court.
  12. AGREED!! So, are lifeguards taking away your rights when they tell you not to go in the ocean because it's unsafe? No, they are trying to protect you from dangers that you don't know about. I think that what good coaches do, try to protect players from the dangers of social media. We've all seen people make huge mistakes on social media, some so big it has changed the course of their lives. Teenagers for sure don't have a clue about dangers that adults face every day with their decisions. If you had a small child, would you let him touch a hot stove, or make a rule that they don't need to be around it?
