  1. congrats to East Carter on a good win to open the season. I am a Elliott County Fan and I am impressed with the play of the lions. It is early in the season and I look forward to them growing from this game. Good luck Lions
  2. Pretty sad this whole thread was suppose to be about updates and there wasnt even a score posted
  3. I dont think that the bus ride will have anything to do with the outcome of the game. I heard from a reliable source that Ballard is driving down Friday and staying the night at the Laurel Gorge Inn. They should have time to get over the car sickness some have mentioned. Good luck Elliott!!! If Elliott keeps from turning the ball over more than 10 times and the rebounds are close to even then I will take Elliott by 3-5 points. But my prediction is Ballard by 7 points
  4. Does anyone know how close Jonathon is to the all time 16th region scoring record?
  5. Good Game Elliott. Forced a lot of turnovers. I didnt see that coming.
  6. If Elliott is hitting 35-40% of there 3-point shots in this game I think that it will be a close game with one of them winning by 3 or fewer. If Elliott is not shooting well from beyond the Arc then I see this game being a 20 to 30 point game. I hope not though.......good luck Elliott. It will be a tough win for Elliott because Mason is a good rebounding team and they do not turn the ball over that much. That means that Elliott will have fewer second chance shots and fewer possesions due to Mason turning the ball over fewer times that most teams that play against Elliott.
  7. I dont mind a blind draw. no matter how you look at it, to win it all you have to beat the best teams. So why not play them first and get it over with. you would face them soon enough anyway.
  8. I agree with you matlock. I hope that Elliott will have thier mind on the game at hand. I venture to say that they will though since this is a rivalry. Good luck Elliott. My guess is Elliott 88 and East Carter 73. I think they will play them closer than any game they have plays thus far.
  9. Nice win for Elliott. Hope that SC's coach gets well. heard that he had a heart attack or something a few days before the game. This was a good team that Elliott Beat. Congrats:thumb::thumb::thumb:
  10. Good game and Congrats to Elliott County. Boyd is having a down year but I bet we dont see to many of these type years at Boyd County.:thumb:
  11. is this game still on for tonight? I'll take EC by 62
  12. I hope that you are right. I dont think that it will be the turning point though. Kentucky Still has no movement on offense and they still struggled everyplay to get the ball up the court and make the first pass to start there half court offense. We are putting allot on the point gaurds who just are not capable of handling it. Porter has no excuse but liggins does and I think he needs to be the one getting the minutes now because he has the potential to become a good point gaurd. In all honesty there is no potential in porter. I will give him credit that he is a tough kid and does play with heart but talent wise he isnt there. I think that Miller is going to be a special player also. I feel that we have some really good players but we just dont have the personel to distribute the ball to them at the right times when they are in position to score. Once these younger players get the experience, I think this will be a special group of young men. I also think that we will see patterson stick around another year because his stock has dropped this year already.
  13. This team they played is going to be one of the better defensive teams as far as the back court that they will see. This is one of the few teams that constantly pressure the ball. I agree with you that the game may be different when they play a team with good post defense and peremiter defense. I am anxious to see how they play next friday. VMI last year was the highest scoring offense in the nation.
  14. I was very impressed with Darius. I didn't expect him to be as ready and mature as he seemed to be last night. I understand that the talent level they were playing wasn't the best but it is still his first college game and he stood the test as far as I am concerned. He showed nice hustle and played composed and let the game come to him......Him and Harrelson will be my favorites this season........well after Patrick and Jodie of course.
  15. :thumb: I agree with you exactly. I was a player that sat out a year and tried coming back. When I tried to come back my senior year to play I felt like I should run harder, play harder and have to do more work because I missed a whole year of what my teammates went through. I felt like I was behind on my skills, conditioning and just a step slow. All I am saying is that I bet the other teammates that have been there the last 2 years would be upset if one of these kids got to play and they didnt. Maybe this was a way for the coach to see if the other teammates would step up and run with them or say something on there behalf. Maybe he was just seeing if the rest of the team wanted these kids on the team? He could have been trying to build some team chemistry? You never know unless you are there witnessing the whole situation. If the coach is doing this to try and run these kids off and doesnt have any other expanations then I do think it is wrong. I also think that we question what or why coaches do somethings maybe a little bit to much. Maybe we should trust our caoches a little bit sometimes.
  16. Congratulations. Very much deserved. If anyone has ever earned a D-1 Scholarship this young man has.
  17. :thumb: :thumb: Great Post. I believe that you had to make a choice on who to help off of and by the percentages I believe the correct defense was played. Good luck Next year Elliott and thanks for a great season!!
  18. Actually Being from Elliott I Hope that we do face Rose Hill again. Those kids would have something to prove. I would rather face Rose Hill again then to face East Carter again in the regional
  19. I think that Elliott will win. I do not think that they will win by as many as last time. East is playing better ball now but I think that they still have a long way to go to play with Elliott day in and day out this year. But anything can happen between to rivals. atleast they were rivals when I played in the 90's. GO Elliott................hopefully by 27+
  20. I agree. He played great defense.
  21. This is probably the true'est and best post I have ever seen on here. Great post and I agree 100%.
