This district will be a slobber knocker to get out of. One region contender will not be in the region.

A traditionally competitive team out of South Central Kentucky, coach Brad Bonds announced before the season this will be his last as head coach of he Patriots as he will just focus on being head coach of the Patriot softball team. Shane Buttry attempted to get this job before, would he take it this off season with his son being an upcoming senior at BGHS?

Mike McClintic has seen a lot of success at Edmonson County. He announced this week that he is retiring at seasons end. Any front runners for this job, have heard the next coach is probably on staff.

Dawson Springs coach Jim Hicks resigned earlier last week and interim coach Charlie Pace will coach the remainder of the season. Any front runners for this job? Will pace take the reigns.

That is an interesting rule I didn't know existed. If that is the rule then he should be ineligible regardless of the reasons moving from Louisville. There are 118 counties outside of Jefferson they could have relocated to aside from the one that is coached by an affiliate or in this case, director of the players AAU program. The twitter post that I seen said he was ineligible for a year since last game at Eastern and he would be eligible sometime in early March. That isn't the whole season for the kid but also he doesn't miss his whole junior year as he will get some sort of the regular season and post season in. That could be said as fair for a black and white rule written that doesn't seem to have any wiggle room around it. What is the KHSAA rules when it comes to practicing while having to sit out. Collegiate level they are allowed to practice during their transfer / redshirt season. Is this the case in KHSAA?

Ray Valentine is brother of former national champion player at Louisville Robbie Valentine. Ray was assistant at Eminence with Dale Brown as well as a former assistant at Georgetown College briefly. Most recently was middle school boys coach in Franklin County. He will treat Berea like it is the UK job and he should have a good group returning this season.

I had previously meant to ask this last weekend after going to the Bowling Green & South Warren game. Is the Ohio State committ, Jantzen Dunn for South Warren our with an injury or is he sitting out this season? If he played I must have missed him but don’t remember seeing him in the game while looking online at the stats he hasn’t played in a game this season but is on the roster. If he will play this season, I would like to go see him in person.

Long time assistant, Tony Moore has taken over as head coach of the Saints with Aaron Rigdons departure to Pike County Central as assistant coach.

I don't know a lot about what Kentucky high school athlete plays for what AAU program but the kids twitter account biography does say "AAU: Manimal Elite". I would assume that is the same as Team Manimal or maybe it isn't?

Trinity in a running clock this year.

Eastern picked up the pair of transfers from Ballard earlier in the off-season, not sure how they will help in replacing Jewell.

According to reports over the weekend on twitter from Travis Gaf & Kentuckiana Hoops, the states top junior has left Eastern and went to Marion County.

Grant Whitaker, 6'2 guard from Murray High School, received his first division one offer over the weekend from Kennesaw State of the Atlantic Sun Conference. Whitaker is a sophomore to be at Murray.
