Boyd is going to play the run and gun no matter what. Wooten is trying to rebuild and play with what little talent he has. Besides, I always thought it was the defenses job to control the score.

There is no way....................AO would smoke Frank Lee...............

The big kid is well over 300lbs., was the last time I spoke to him. He is a load. I don't know if he will get much playing time, but can be a problem if he does. He is very physical.

Messer doesn't fit in this system. It will be interesting to see what happens once football is over.

 

Boyd plays at the Middle School gym. If BC runs with Elliott look for all three digits on the scoreboard to light up. Elliott is the real deal.

 

Elliott Co will light it up because I'm pretty sure BC will play the run & gun no matter who they play. They really don't have a choice.

Who is the starting 5 for Boyd.

Not really sure if it will even matter who the starting 5 are. Looks like Wooten will shuttling players in and out.

After watching the Red/White game, Wooten is playing an exiciting form of basketball that quite frankly isn't suited for all players. But you can see that he is getting everything he can out of what he has got.

They make up for the lack of talent with hustle. This team may not win alot of games, but they will be fun to watch. It will be interesting to see other teams keeping up with the pace BC will be playing.

Unfortunately it may take several years to fix the problems at BC. It should be a sign when you have had hardly any applicants for the open coaching positions in all 3 major sports.

A Frank Lee or Tyler Zornes walking the hallways would help too...

Too many legal problems for that to happen, but they were tremendous players

Amen!!!!!!! Well said Tiny. This is as far down as I can remember BC sports being.

Sounds like sour grapes to me. Would you be so upset if it were a different freshman. Just maybe Wooten is trying to develop some younger talent, because he knows this will be a long season since he has very little returning talent.

Its not an organized scrimmage. It is an open gym and anyone can play, but it is usually just current and former players.

WOW!!!!! Thought Ashland would win but not this big

Found this online about Lafayette and Jed Dorough. When you see who he outpitched you should know this kid was MLB quality. See if you can figure out why we have pitching limits now, and why he didn't last. This was his Jr. year and he did the same thing his Sr. year. Think he PITCHED EVERY GAME FOR LAFAYETTE but the district finals. Don Chandler had his stud and rode him.

"Lafayette beats St. Xavier 5-2 in the state baseball semifinals. Junior lefthander Jed Dorough is the winning pitcher. He has 12 strikeouts and scatters six hits in improving his record to 11-0. St. X senior ace Paul Byrd gives up five hits and strikes out 11 in taking the loss. Lafayette beats Boyd County 12-1 in the finals. Dorough, who went seven innings only 15 hours earlier, starts and goes five innings before leaving with the Generals leading 9-0. Shawn Wiglesworth smacks a grand slam, Kevin Goins has a two-run homer and Todd Baxter has a solo shot to fuel the championship game rout."

Jed was without a doubt the most dominant pitcher I've ever seen on the high school level. Just thought I'd share. Jed and Lafayette won the state in '89 too. Thanks for the info on Snopek. Best all-around player I ever played against or with. Mike Harris, Tates Creek/UK, was a better hitter. Took our pitcher's glove off his hand with a line drive. CRAZY!!

The game between St X and Lafayette in 88 was a great game to watch. Dorough and Byrd were tough. Unfortunately, I also got to witness the championship game the next day on the field, since I played for BC. Dorough was def not the same pitcher as the day before, but he still had a heck of a curveball. Even still, I got 2 hits off him that game. From what I hear, his arm was never the same after that, and thats a shame.

What does that say about that program and where it is now?

Down, Down, Down as bad as I hate to say it.

Program is fine. They will contend for the region title next year.

Personally, I hope they do, no matter who is coaching.

Best candidate for the job regardless of who had applied. Nobody cares more about BC Baseball than Ramsey. You should know that Kinglion.

Funny how times change. When he left the program, he was trying his best to get kids to leave the program. Now explain to me how that is caring about the "program"

It is true. Coach Ramsey will do A fine job. I think Tiny was trying to say that it is a mistake to hire Coach Ramsey.

Sad thing is that nobody else wanted the job

In another possibility... although slightly far fetched (maybe) Is it possible that the pitcher and catcher had a mix up... perhaps the pitch was supposed to be a cutter or something of that nature in the dirt, and the catcher prematurely went to the dirt to block it. It did look somewhat reminiscent of a catcher going to the dirt to block a ball.

If the pitcher could throw a ball that breaks that much, his name would have surely been called in the 1st round of the MLB draft. Its not every day that a pitcher comes along throwing a 6' drop breaking ball.:rolleyes:

Boyd Co.

Could be some extenuating circumstances in this one. BC fans have known for a while that this was coming.

This would have to be considered a pretty big upset. Just goes to prove why the game is played on the field instead of on paper.

If Greenup doesn't win, it will be a major upset. They are head and shoulders better than the rest of the 16th region this year.

If GC doesn't come into the post season with a big headed attitude, and I don't think Logan will let that happen, they should cruise all the way to Applebees.

Boyd isn't. I know it seems like a big deal by beating Boyd, but this season it is just beating a name. They flat out aren't a very good team. Greenup should win the Region hands down, but stranger thigs have happened.
