I think this puts Hazard as the best team in the Region with JBS not far behind. Then Breathitt at a distant third. Coach Hatcher and his staff will have to work extremely hard to win the Regional Tournament this year. But they can do it
I agree Noble does do a great job and gets the most out of his players. They will be a Top Five Team along with JBS, Breathitt, PCC, and Hazard. I also think Estill Co. will surprise a few people this year.
McKenzie deserves it if he wants it. He was a good player, He is a good coach. And more importantly he is a great person. The boys at Johnson Central will be better men for knowing McKenzie. If I had a son I know I would want him to play for someone just like Tommy.
I think 1998 was the most talented.
David Graves Notre Dame
Shawn Fields Georgia
JR Vanhoose and Tackett
Jaron Brown Pitt and his cousin both played at Bryan Station.
I think his cousin played at Louisville.
Wes Burnter played at Clark Co. a really good player
Kyle Umberger Ashland played at Morehead
Jimmy Tackett Greenup
I think Derek Smith and Lorenzen was in this class but it might have been the 99 class.
J.P. Blevins and they were a few more
The latest Ive heard is James Hurley. I think a lot of the players and the community will be upset if Campbell does not get it. But James Hurley is also from Perry County and Im sure he will do a fine job.
