Original Rookie

Great news! I'd be interested in hearing what GT says about him at the next level.

WOW!!! What a finish.

Can he play today for UK? Please.

This.

With all due respect, I googled my address (Boone district) to BOK Center and it said 17 miles, 26 minutes. For the record, I do not drive a car made before 1930.

Just seems that in a weird way there is some sort of moral victory being celebrated in this thread. It has been broken down as far as "396 students" and "7-8% were on the court." Sheeeesh.

Congrats ?

It is more of a convenience issue than a poverty one if you ask me. Sunday afternoon game about 30 minutes away that is relatively expensive isn't as appealing to your average high schooler than if the Region final were on a Friday night down the road at Conner or Ryle. Not justifying it, I just think that is what is at play here a little bit. Side note: How sad is it that this thread has more posts than the game thread? Talk about taking away from the team...

They won 21-0. What exactly should be brought into question here?

Congrats to Ryle on advancing to the finals.

"Why don't you call a timeout when the game is tied?" THAT'S WHY!

He did exactly what UK wanted him to do. Contested 18 footers don't win you too many games.

Same. OSU had no rhythm on offensive and it was because of Liggins.

Liggins on the offensive end was phenomenal. Diebler has never been accused of being a good defender and Liggins exposed him off the bounce.

It was also identical to when Calipari put Liggins on Siva

Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. Thanks to the "committee" we all just watched a Final Four quality game.

Looked like Towles had the edge for the last 2pt conversion but dropped the ball as he braced for the hit. It's easy for me to say this from my couch but he should have scored there.

:lol: Who didn't see that one coming? I'm sure injuries hurt Highlands like many of you are suggesting, but let's not forget that Elliot was out most of the second half with an injury. 22 carries in the first half and only four in the second. Hempel willed them to a win tonight.

I am. Henry Clay was. By exactly nine points.

Nice upset win for the Rebels in Lexington.

^Hm solid input. Seems like a lot of people think they are pretty good.

28-19 Boone County. Under 8 minutes to go in the 4th.

Everyone always talks about 34, and deservedly so, but Hempel is a baller and half.

Dang.
