Was this just an bad showing for Cooper or is Holy across better than we expected

YES......this was a bad showing by Cooper and yes the Cross was better than expected. What Holy Cross lacks in athletism they make up with their overall b-ball IQ. I guarantee Coach Sully wasnt satisfied by his teams offensive execution and overall effort. Only the first game. The season is just about getting ready for tournament time. Thank goodness you don't have to be peaking after the first game.

A number of people and schools were with you. Morehead didn't even recruit him I don't think. I wasn't one of them I'm happy to say. Nice of you to admit it. Many people wouldn't do that. Class move.

I will admit it too. I thought Shaun Alexander would be moved to another position and never play running back at Bama. That shows my ability to evaluate talent....Lol!!!! Way to work your butt off Drew to become the player that you are!!!!!

I agree that foul count does not matter, but to say that there are no homer calls is ridiculous.

They are both special players, and I hope that is not the last time they are on the same floor. Dontaie does have exceptional physical gifts, but he does truly work his tail off to maximize them.

 

Jake and Dontaie are both good kids who work hard and play within the team game plan. I find it unfortunate that some would criticize them because they are, on most possessions, their team's best option to score. I have yet to see either one of them take a shot when they had a teammate in a better position to score.

 

Congratulations to both of them. I hope they both continue to play the same way.

Sounds like both of them are very fortunate to have coaches that will allow them to maximize their talents.

I'm sure they are getting homered a little just like a NKY team would playing at Lex. Cath.

I want a pimp elf

50 of the team 67 is concerning in reference to supporting cast. I expected both stars to score well.

Not going to win many games with not many other scoring options. Will be interesting to see how Pendleton will do when they play a team that can match up with Allen height wise.

Holy Cross was definitely better than expected. Once their football players get back in the groove they will give a lot of teams fits. Cooper really looked sluggish on offense and never seemed to have a good flow to it. Only the first game and both teams will only get better. Heck, the only reason that these games are played is to hopefully be peaking at tournament time when the games count.

Just as long as it wasn't his shooting arm.

Mason County is really going to struggle this year. Seems like the whole 10th region top to bottom isn't as strong this year.

Very annoying when posters just have to correct spelling errors when they know exactly what the person meant.

Whoops......I'm the knuckle head....you were correcting your own post......Lol!!!!

Zach has worked really hard to improve his game each year. He has also gotten bigger and stronger. I expect big things from him this year. The best thing about Zach is that he is the most polite and classiest kids that I have met. He also comes from a great family!

13?

 

At 13 I was simply wondering how many years it would be before I saw a bra.

Whatever Clyde.....We know what you were doing at age 13.......Ha Ha!!!!

They are definitely going to be doing a lot of that this year.

Observation from watching Pulaski on Saturday:

 

Landon Powell barely touches the ball. And when he did, he shot some pretty atrocious bricks. Danny Butt was playing the 1 and bringing the ball up while Landon played off the ball.

 

Also, they never look in the post to Sylvester. He even yelled "Give me the ball" one time when he had the post defender on his back. He didn't get the ball.....

 

The concern would be if they will have long term chemistry issues. Long season. Lots of time to get stuff fixed.

Powell and Sylvester better get used to not touching the ball as much. You know Fitzgerald and Butt are gonna get theirs know matter what. They may get wins but I bet a lot of their teammates wish they would have stayed where they were.

Not only a High Major prospect but "NBA Potiential" should be enough to make some noise in the state.

Ha!!! Ha!!! Ha!!!

Crazy

One of the selected D linemen has 3 total tackles. Seems odd he would be selected.

He did all of the dirty work and took on blockers so his LB's could make all of the tackles.

Same here CWB. I thought it was hilarious!!!!

Can you go back and measure his wing span? I want more to talk about regarding this kid.

The KHSAA should be ashamed at a lot of things they do regarding football and especially basketball. You just have to learn to grin and bare it.

I predict a lot of non stop yelling by the coach.

I was agreeing with you having him on there and speaking in terms of any "final list" needing to have Peyton on there.

Agree.....Peyton has been one of the best on defense in NKY for the last two years. His motor never slows down. Also, a great special teams player.

Otherwise they would have played a 6A power like Seneca or Jeffersontown. :lol2:

You could play the little sisters of the poor the last game of the year and it wouldn't hinder your playoff chances.
