:lol: You are right..You have no clue...:flame:

:thumb: You are correct about one thing..Coach Stamm is an excellent coach and we are glad he has returned to his alma mater. We hope to keep him around for a while.

Ok have it your way. I honestly could care less. I was there as an unbiased observer. Officiating for both teams was lousy to say the least which is pretty consistent for the 9th region. Coach Mullins has a long way to go to get this team back up to Top 10 standards in NKY but I do wish him and the Ryle PLAYERS the very best with their season. Hopefully all the mommys and daddys will let this guy coach. As for the freshmen game when I asked some Ludlow people I was told that Ludlow was unaware of any freshmen game being scheduled. Apparently a miscommunication. I think this was a 2 year contract with Ryle on the boys side and I doubt that the contract will be renewed.

:confused: Then apparently you were outside with the smokers.:ylsuper: Honestly I don't think anyone expects someone with the name IM4RYLE to concede that their team might play a little dirty..:lol: Cya

I have watched enough basketball in my time to know the difference between physical and dirty. I like a team that gets physical and plays hard. I don't care for dirty play and intentionally trying to throw elbows. IMO what I say from Ryle on Saturday night came very close to crossing the line and at times they did. So yes there is apparently alot of that left being carried over as you possibly suggest.

Not sure why they scheduled each other this year and last. They are not in the same district but I think there are some friendships possibly between coaches on either the boys or girls side that made this happen..Could be wrong.

Excuse me, AN INTENTIONAL FOUL. I believe the youngman (31) came out of the game and not to sure if he was ever put back in by the coach and for that I respect him. As for my comments regarding some of Ryles rough play I stand by my statement that they didn't manhandle Ludlow as much as they just flat out played rather dirty IMO. I certainly wouldn't expect a Ryle fan to agree with me.. Nice tournout by the Ryles fans and hopefully they will continue to support their team because when it comes to playing schools their own size I don't see them doing to well. Wonder how long of a grace period you give Coach Mullins before they go after him like the previous coach..

Saw the game and can't say I was very impressed by Ryle. Their play bordered on dirty actually and one technical was called in the 1st half and there probably should have been one or two more

:confused: No FC I'm not sure and that is the point of my original question. If they were one and the same then I have serious questions about one particular nominee and I don't think I need to tell you who. If it is soley on his football ability that he got the Top 24 then I can go with that but if he was also the schools "Thats My Boy Award" nominee then I'm appalled.

Thank you for clearing that up for me. It is what I thought but wasn't exactly being told. Some schools need to do a better job of research before sending in a youngmans name and not doing or even worse not caring about anything other then the fact he was a decent football player. I know of one particular instance where the youngman met none of the criteria other then the fact then he was a good football player. Throw in the other criteria and unfortunately he didn't come close. Fortunately he wasn't one of the 3 finalists or I would have some very serious concerns. Personally I'm embarassed for the school and the youngman. Here's hoping a better job is done in the future. People will be watching closely.

Just curious but were the other boys listed from each school as the NKY Top 24 then also that schools candidate for the "Thats My Boy".? Have asked a few people and I seem to be getting different answers. Anyone that could provide me that info I would greatly appreciate.

Coach Reese could have answered this thread from the beginning. Very good at self promotion. Sorry guys and gals but Reese shouldn't even be mentioned with some of the names that I have seen in this thread.
