Any timetable been communicated to the team as far as replacement? Any idea who has applied/interviewed?

Would not be a surprise as it has not been well attended the past few years. Very little has been done to promote it or make it worthwhile for the players

Coaches Association game for basketball is being played in June of this year as always.

Would hope that the players would not be disappointed as Coach Rasso is very, very good and this lays the foundation for a really solid staff. Had the opportunity to watch Coach Rasso a few times last time year and was very impressed with his work at LLoyd.

Great hire and great pedigree. Very positive hire from Ryle

It's been a long time since anyone really considered the AAU State Tournament as a means to get a bid to Nationals. The tournament has always been about bragging rights and seeing how you stack up against other players and programs in the state. Travelers should play in the state because it's a weekend where you can basically put your money where your mouth is for all organizations. You want to be the big dog in the state then here is where you can get that done. As far as the other programs that you mentioned competing on an annual basis with either the Magic or the Travelers it will not happen unless they come up with some serious sponsorship. The better players in those programs would gravitate to the Nike or Under Armour sponsored programs if given the opportunity.

Just trying to get my bearings on this case... So the incident took place 2 years ago and was reported to the Boone County Board of Education at that time? Or has the incident only recently been reported and an investigation is currently ongoing? If this took place two years ago and had been previously reported and investigated by the board what were the results of the investigation? I would assume any and all punishments would have already been handed down and she still to this point has her position in Boone County. Just saying that if this had already been investigated and adjudicated two years ago the timing of bringing this back up seems suspicious and does it really help the case of the Boone Co coach in question or is it just an opportunity to take shot at the principal?

How about Alex Trentman from Brossart at the 3?

Stuhr from Ryle Williams from Owen Co, and Schulte from NewCath would be some solid candidates in the frontcourt to fill in any top 5 team from this area. I am as big a Scott homer as you could find but you are way overrating Blake Schneider from Scott. He has some potential but has barely played on the varsity level and to the best of my knowledge isn't playing on the AAU circuit against the better competition.

D3 is a lot tougher to coach than meets the eye. With no athletic scholarships and the recruiting limitations it can be just as stressful as higher level and higher profile positions. Would not be surprised if this was a financial consideration for leaving?

D3 schools traditionally carry a lot of players. Since the student athletes are not on athletic scholarships there is usually some turnover. D3 is very guard oriented as size is over recruited.

Played California last week off of Kellogg Ave in Cincinnati and was really disappointed in condition of the course. Greens were really bumpy and if you were just a little off of fairway you were hitting off of mud not grass. Played Lassing Pointe as well in Union and it was in much better shape.

JUCO in Indiana

Toughness by Jay Bilas. Really loved the article he did for ESPN a couple of years talking about toughness on the court. Thought it was a must read for basketball players and coaches and really anyone who loved the game. REally struggling with the book as it is just not as good a read. Only about 25% into the book so hopefully it will get better.

Anytime you can get part of your education or the whole education played for that is a great deal for the student athlete and the parents. I have watched Bueter thru his whole high school career and while Union is a nice place I thought he might have some opportunities at the D2 level. When you look at the success that Mikey Gabbard (Boone Co) and Kellen Smith (Scott HS) are having as PG's at the D2 level I thought Bueter might end up at that level. Did he have any other offers or was Union just the best "fit"? Have also heard that Nick Jackson from Scott might also end up at Union if he can take care of some "other business". That would be two very good gets for Union out of this area.

Heading down tomorrow!

Congrats to Bueter. Had an unbelieveable career at the high school level.

Solid roster and getting the opportunity to play for Coach Price will give these players the opportunity to play in front of a lot of college coaches

Don't have a dog in this fight and really have no idea as to what the parent/coach issues might be. There has been some shots taken at the parent and my only comment towards that would be that I have had business dealings with Pam Thamann in her position as an administrator and found her to be extremely professional. From a business perspective my life would be much easier if all of my clients were like her. I realize that my perspective probably has very little to do with the situation being discussed but to paint her with a broad brush as a wack job parent does not seem fair.

Rieger doesn't get a whole lot of mention for Brossart but does a lot of little things that make them successful. Brossart is athletic enough to match up well with Montgomery Co. Taking Brossart in a mild upset!!

Wasn't there so can't comment on officiating however complaints about poor officiating on BGP don't seem to be relegated just to the Scott supporters. Seems to be be a pretty common thread. Preseason I thought this Scott team had the opportunity to be Coach Carr's best team ever. This group had won the CovCath frosh tourney and had stayed relatively intact. They had a full season as starters and rotational players under Carr last year and produced I think a .500 (15-15) record. They lacked a true post but most teams don't have that player and HS basketball is a guards game. With all of that being said my opinion is that this team with a .500 record has underachieved. Carr has always played a tough schedule so this years schedule is no different than years past. To say that this game meant nothing to Scott is so anti Carr and not what they have built the programs recent success around. While his post game message might have been to move on and get ready for districts I would be very surprised if he said those things pregame. Carr is still one of the best coaches in the area and if this group is able to put together a run and win district and win a couple of games come regional time they still have an opportunity to salvage the season.

Went yesterday and had a very good pizza! Will definitely be going back!!

Good for him! Let us know when he gets the phone calls or texts from the staff.

Letters don't exactly equate to being recruited to that level. Every D1 school (other levels as well) acquire databases from services etc and they generate tons of letters. Just my opinion but until you get the phone call from someone on the coaching staff you are just another name on the list.
