RADIO GUY

If this needs to be in a seperate thread from this thread, please put in where it belongs. I just know it is part of this tourney, but I posted before reading the Mods advice. Sorry:confused:

I understand that Daviess Co. beat Boone tonight 77-73. Was Boone ranked in the state? Is this a upset. Daviess is good I have seen them a few times and what is scary about is they play alot of underclassmen

I think Boone has a few really good sophmores. Is this right? I have heard they do, but was not sure.

I agree with all assesments that the play should have been stopped if the injured (?) player was in danger. The play should have continued on A's control of the ball until the play was complete i.e. missed/made shot or change of hands via turnover/rebound. When procession change, sure blow the whistle and check on the kids injury. The player was not in danger as he was under the opposite end of the court trying to get up when the whistle killed the play. The injured player and 3 of his other team members were not even past mid court when the whistle sounded. B only had one player back thus the 3 on 1. Protect the player YES, but not needed here. Just my opinion, but must say never seen it before.

So is it a judgement call as to the validity of "injured"? How does Art.2(a) defined injured?. I can understand suspend play to protect, but there was no need to protect. If the ball had been turned over on the 3 on 1 or if A would have scored, I could see stopping play then, but it appeared the whistle stopped the play long enough for the kid to then get down along with the rest of team to set on half court defense.

Daviess outscored Grove 31-16 in 2nd half after Daviess lead by 13 at half time. A bad 1st and 4th quarter for Silver Grove (only 8 points total). Final score Daviess 65 Silver Grove 36

Wanting to know if seasoned official can give me a ruling in the following case: Team A has a fast break going ( 3 on 1 ) after a missed shot by B. Player from B falls down like he had a cramp. This player is behind the trailing official in back court when the front official sees B player is down. Official blows whistle killing the fast break. Cramp player gets up and runs to the front court and then sets up on defense (along with his other 3 team members) thus making it full strength defense 5 on 5. Team A then takes the ball out of bounds facing 5 on 5. Should the official have let the play continue until next procession by B? If no, should the B cramp player have had to come out of the game for one play even if the coach did not come on the floor to check on him After all the play was dead and he had a injured player that the official stopped play for. Any insight would be great.

He was a MAN against Owensboro Catholic in the Border Bowl and his brother was an outstanding receiver also. Man I wish the Border Bowl was this weekend so the whole season was in front of us again!!!!

With reference to the whistle, the official explanation given to both coaches was that, in fact none of the 5 officials blew the whistle. They asserted that on the play a whistle was blown from the stands or I should say by a non-official.

I was aware that the base, due to size, covers both states however I was needing to clarify that the school itself, while regulated by Kentucky for all purposes (including football) was located on the Tenn. side of the base. This I believe makes me the winner of the dinner. Thanks for the quick answer.

Some really successful programs have teams that after four years play what is equal to another whole season and thats is great IMO. It gives other teams the chance to continue on and play games the can be 1/2 a season more and give kids a chance to keep playing the game they love.:thumb:

I was told once that Fort Campbell, while technically in Kentucky, has the high school geographically, as being in Tenn. Now I realize that some posters may take exception to this as being a dig, but I have a expensive dinner riding on this as I say that they are. Please, only informed Fort Campbell posters reply. Good Luck to the Falcons and I wish you well and bring home the hardware to the West.

Daviess Co. jumped out to a big lead, but midway in the first half Breck. staged a pretty good comeback to cut it to 4-6 points. Daviess used some strong defense with a lot of trapping and pressing to force some turnovers and regained the momentum, before pulling away from a very scrappy Breckenridge team, who never gave up. Daviess had some good ball movement and was quick on defense, but gave up some points in the paint.

Final

They thought all the demons were released at Rash when they took up the old grass and installed the sports turf a couple of years ago, but the demon devils came back only with more speed. However, talk is that the air in the vistors locker room has continued over the years to some how weaken the visiting team. Good Luck to the Devils and the Purples. It should be a good one. We even offer the Purples to tailgate with us at the main entrance and have a world famous "Benji Burger". It will fill you up for sure.:dancingpa

Or the Rocks???

Slow to process IMO

On the bright side David Jones (Belfry?) made a great stop in OT

Last TD by Anige, someone DB? got really lost on that play

I feel that the curse is the win or lack of it, but I see what you are saying.

Last chance for some years to come for UK to break the curse. IMO

Woodson does not process things on the field very well sometimes. Not quick enough to make decsions IMO

At one point Owensboro was looking to play against Oldham at 1:00 c.s.t. , but decided against it. BTW what game are you going to? I could use some help with some scores if you are willing.

Good Luck to both teams from Western Kentucky. I must say that coming from a Owensboro Catholic fan, that Belfry is really tough this time of year and having met many of the fans in the finals couple of years ago they really love the football that team brings!!!! Good Luck to both teams:dancingpa

He is a classy guy by any standard of measurement IMO:ylsuper:
