Crews taking over Desales
Twitter reports have Desales coach Mingus stepping down and former Desales and Male coach Tom Crews taking over. Heard this would happen eventually since Crews returned to Desales but not in the middle of preseason. Crews had a lot of success in his fist tenure there. With a lot of interest now in Desales from the Catholic kids look for them to be a force in the 6th region.

Nice job Fairdale Football
Great turnaround. Doing it the right way. The program had lost 15 straight before turning it around against a tough schedule. Coach Wright has put together a solid staff. Renardo Foster former UofL player is on staff. Has brought them some toughness. Good luck the rest of the way.

LexCath nixes transfer agreement with Fayette County
They will boycott again. It hurt Catholic in the pocketbook thats why they agreed to it. Catholic gets the reputation of recruiting again and their teams improve to where they where in the past other public schools wont play them either. Gets expensive traveling to find games. I wish Jeff. co had the same policy but will never happen

No Ky schools.

City of Palms Tourney (Dec. 18-23)
Ky teams usually do well in this tournament. A lot of those teams have talent but are not coached. I bet Trinity makes the semi finals.

6th Region Top 3 Teams and Players
Not saying they will but they should. If its a POE they should do their jobs. Just like the colleges did. Teams had to adjust. It will only cause Louisville teams trouble in the post season.. It happens every year in the 6th. The 6th usually alternates with the 5th and 8th regions and there is always issues cause those officials call the region tighter. The 5th has done the 6th region the last two years and there were probably more T's called in the tournament on the players than the whole regular season. Including PRP's Harris getting tossed and missing region final and state tournament. The district that has Butler/Iroquois/Doss/Desales was a slug fest. Coaches got upset caused they called fouls. They should have called more fouls. Nothing worse than seeing a ballhandler manhandled in the press.

Good maybe teams can actually play basketball now. Some teams in Louisville get away with murder each night. Physical teams dominate the area cause of the no calls

Fern Creek 2014/2015
Maybe if they all grow and continue to develop over four years. Often times kids dominate their age group in AAU. They play on superstar teams. When they get to high school coaches prepare for you. There are some excellent coaches in the 6th and 7th region.. When these kids dont continue to grow others catch up to them. Too many kids get larger then life aau reps and never pan out. Alot of these kids get frustrated and want to transfer. See Waggener. Hopefully this wont happen at FernCreek and they become a special group. As long a coach Mabrey is at PRP there wont be a power shift. He has dominated this region for over 30 years. They know how to win big games.

Is AAU causing transfers?
Levitch has been the Villes coach all along. Coaching his kids David and Jax from grade school up. Wiley Brown has helped coach also. He stated after Nationals this was the last year. He evidently has lots of $$ and funds the Ville. A really legit aau program but he no longer will have kids in it.

St. Xavier Tigers Football
St. X like Trinity prolly has a tough time filling their schedule with local/Ky teams. Need a home game to sell the tickets. Some teams are willing to play for the money.

Is AAU causing transfers?
David Levitch. Son Jax, Thienneman, and Spaulding. Former Trinity players Quick, Foster, Hicks, and Jason Hatcher played for the Ville. I think there is another Trinity player on their roster this year. This was the last year for the Ville since Levitch son is a Sr.The Ville is a quality run program.

Is AAU causing transfers?
Just about all of the ville team is at Trinity. Been playing with them for years. Darryl Hicks also went to Trinity and played with the ville. A lot of aau teams that take older kids don't. But coaches who have younger kids do. Saw Fern Creek coach on the end of the bench during Gators run at State aau.

Is AAU causing transfers?
I think some coaches care. Waggener got most of the Louisville Legends two years ago and this year most of the Ky Gators 14u went to Fern Creek. They will send there kids to the schools that help them or let them use facilities. AAU caoches have strong influence on where kids go and most families liesten to them.

Former Louisville Eastern Coach Bill Kercher Passes away
Bill evidently had been fighting cancer. Kercher led Eastern to back to back 6th region titles in middle 80's. I think they were back to back. He coached former Louisville players Herbert Crook and Felton Spencer.

Is AAU causing transfers?
Why would Dow leave Ballard for Mercer Co? If parents got a job no problem. Highly doubt that. Two Louisville kids moving to Taylor Co. I guess jobs are just opening up everywhere. Hey if they are legit so be it. Moving in with coaches and players families to me are not legit. aau seems to be causing this more. Just so happens Dow played on the same aau team as a Mercer Co. kid. Be surprised if he is not living with his family.

Is AAU causing transfers?

New School In Scott County
A friend of mine lives in Scott Co. and kids attend public school there. She said that they will be building a new school in Two years. Scott Co. is over crowded. Any one heard this. If so how does this effect Athletics. I would think it would be an attractive job.

Hammer dropped on Cordia
Why did it take so long for this to happen. Some of the violations occurred in 2010. Everyone knew something was going on there when a school suddenly becomes a powerhouse from nothing. The ones who will get punished are the ones left behind to clean it up

All Decade State Tournament Team (1990's)
Brown was back to back state tournament MVP. Originally signed with UT. Played two years and finished at Georgetown college. Morris was a two time member of all tournament team, played two years at Sullivan Jr. College and finished at Southern Miss. Turner made the most of a second chance and played and graduated from Jesuit college. I think it's in West Virginia. The 94 team was lead by Rashawn Morris and Eric Martin a kid no one has mentioned. These two led Sullivan Jr. College to a national championship. Martin signed with Oklahoma and led the Big 8. In three point shooting his senior year. He has played pro ball in Mexico and is now coaching a pro team there.
