I saw them at the All A but it was against Murray, who didn't have the athleticism to keep up with Evangel. The second half turned into a layup line and dunk fest. I know there are teams in the 6th Region that can compete with them, but I'm with you, this might be their year.

It seems like the 6th Region always has a ton of good teams and no clear favorite. The region champion has been a surprise team a few times, too. Evangel looks like the favorite here, but will they get to Rupp?

He most definitely should. We tend to think Cal has more coaching success with point guards but the improvement of Reeves from just a shooter to someone who can get to the basket, finish at the rim, make floaters and pull-ups, etc. has to be credited to someone. His improvement has been great to watch.

I watched it on YouTube. It was close for 1.5 quarters then Lyon put some distance between the two before halftime. In the third quarter, the Lyons absolutely blitzed Adair. It seemed like they made every shot.

Yes indeed. He also did a nice job at Seneca before coming to Manual.

Definitely. I was nervous the entire time but in hindsight it was really never in doubt. Every time Auburn cut it to 5-6, Kentucky immediately answered.

Isn't he the athletic director?

Extremely good. I'm also not even remotely convinced that Marquette (or any Shaka Smart coached team) is the #4 team in the country.

Crimsons looking for their first region title since 1972 and only second since 1959. As always, the 7th Region tournament will be an absolute gauntlet.

I know Lyon County is probably the favorite but I think the 2nd region tournament should be a fun event.

Conference rivals!

I picked up Fubo last season because it carried the Reds on Bally. Fubo doesn't have TNT or TBS so I'm probably going to jump off during March Madness (maybe go to YouTube or something else) then jump back on Fubo once basketball ends and baseball starts. I'd love for the Reds to eventually get to Prime.

Gotcha. Thought that might be who you meant but wanted to confirm.

Agreed. I wish we could have seen a Tilghman/Boyle game last year. I know CovCath beat Tilghman, but football is all about matchups and I think those two would have played an entertaining game.

I'm unfamiliar. Is this a typo?

Honestly, my first thought yesterday was if Ohio State might contact Calipari. Money wouldn't be an issue and they might see that the UK/Cal relationship isn't what it used to be. Perhaps a splashy, big name hire might help get Buckeyes basketball closer to where football is. I don't think Cal would go but I do think I'd kick the tires if I was Ohio State.

1. DCA 2. Boyle/Lincoln 3. Boyle/Lincoln 4. Danville 5. Garrard 6. KSD Not sure who will finish 2/3 due to tiebreakers. Whoever is 3rd has to play KSD, but they'll win that with ease, so you can go ahead and prepare for a Lincoln/Boyle district semifinal. Garrard and Danville will play each other with the winner facing DCA in the other semifinal. I believe the district meeting to set dates, times, etc. is next Wednesday, February 21.

Went to Somerset Christian for the first time earlier this year. Not sure what I was expecting, but their gym far exceeded my expectations. It was very nice and certainly capable of hosting a district tournament.

I made the above post on January 7. Several others said that Fleming had good pieces, it just hadn't been put together yet. I looks like they are firing on all cylinders now.

I didn't realize the school served students in all three counties. That's pretty cool. Is the old Grant High building still in Covington? I seem to remembering driving past a school in town once and wondered if it with the old Grant school.

There will be no disparaging of the beautiful Jack Coleman Gymnasium at Burgin High School on this forum, sir! 😂 Honestly, it does surprise me that they host the district tournament (All A and holiday tournaments are a different matter).

Might like Oldham County's chances better if it were a home game. However, catching St. X the night after their game with Male might negate the home court advantage. I think I'll take St. X but in a really good ballgame.

I think Cal's best defensive teams always had a top-tier rim protector. That allowed Kentucky to overplay and put more pressure on the ball because they knew there was protection in the back. They haven't had those top-tier shot blockers in recent years (even this year with 3 7-footers) and I think it has made the defense look even worse.

Big East game at 7, Big 8 game at 9, and a Big West (usually UNLV, New Mexico State, maybe a Loyola Marymount) game after Sportscenter at 11:30!
