If GC adds a tremendous athelet like the 6"6" Perry (dunks every way possable) do you guys still think they are 4th out of this bunch ? I don't see it. By the time the season gets going I see them 2nd to Raceland. LB

Would be a great hire ----look whats happened at the places he has been. LB

should'nt be a problem --- GREENUP IS USED TO ONE AND DONE WITH HICKS AROUND !!!!! (GC supporter not a basher) LB:flame:

Who are Greenup's leading 5-6 players this year ? thanks for the updates Springsteen LB

Any old timers see Jack Sigma when they see/watch Dakota play ? If he only had the step back jumper :laugh: Hope the kid goes far and fills his dreams ! LB

Way to go GC ---Yeah Baby ! I played on a regional champ at GC ! Super !! LB

n/m ??

Where / when is the championship ? GO GC ! LB

up until the last 2 years the 1st thing any player did when they saw Elliott was consider who's next ----like it or not they have been a doormat ---until the last 2 years ---when they have been very good. To claim transfers is even small % of the success of the 63rd district is absurd. I don't recall any transfer at all helping Greenup win 4 titles. The 62's total of 2 sweet 16's tells the story. I'd bet a buck that even the # of trips to the finals of the region would show the 63rd has been there many more times than the 62nd . The 62 is waaaay weaker than the 63rd. But don't hang your head ---EC is going to win plenty the next few years. LB

picknroll---Russell plays in a weak district ??? are you that uninformed ? How far back are you looking ? Are you a teenager ? There are some districts out there that are weak (rowan's, carter's, elliott's) but it sure is'nt the 63rd. anyway back to the topic ---can't argue Zornes , Dodd has great talent but did a great job the last 2 years. his team plays the ugliest game in school history (home loss to GC in district finals) and he turns around and wins the region , then makes a good run w/o Vanhoose in the region --I'd include Dodd. For a 3rd pick I'd go Hampton ---LC had'nt won a district title in something like 25 years when he took over. He's won 2 or 3 in 6 years. and his team ends up in morehead about every year. No one does more with less. Mays ?? -- doormat FOREVER , never did much until his teams talent level got ski high.

Lost by 16 to the eventual state champ ---not exactly embarrassed ---but I can buy that over with under and under with over statement LB

thanks strike3 good info LB

who's the fav' ? LB

Don't get the ADI paper to be able to keep up ? Thanks LB

I'm almost afraid to ask but was this a hypothetical or real life ? I'm guessing it happened and some girls went to prom ? Would be a very very tough call--would try to restrain from being critical ---I've never had to make a decesion like that before. LB

thanks ramfan ---my girl plays on the 12u wild thang team , did'nt get to watch the 14's much last weekend. maybe I can see them this weekend at the urgent care classic --at west ports. thanks LB

way to go ladies from raceland----there is a girl from raceland who plays 14u travel ball with Wild Thangs from portsmouth, don't know her name , is she old enough to play with the HS team yet ? if anyone knows the young lady I'm talking about . LB

I'll be cheering loudly for the new coach , turn that ship around !! LB

Can someone help with some answers w/o smearing any individuals ? My question(s)---I've heard FOREVER about this Greenup co chaos , power brokers behind the scenes, fights amongst east/west people , hicks vs non hicks people and on and on . The TEAM, and program, is suffering terribly from this. The coaching search was a disaster. SOOO ---can someone name names ?? Without pointing out personal opinions or even stating what "side" these people have ---just who are the movers/shakers that are so invovled with the GCHS that they can alter the administration ? Or is this a myth ? And it's just the adm' not doing a good job ? Who has the power ? One last question , this former principle in the hicks lawsuit ---who is that ? I'm not looking to smear or offend people , just curious to who some of the power brokers are in this mess . Please don't sling mudd ! LB

This might go down as the fastest turn around in history ---He was in at noon , out at 2-3 pm . WOW !

Seems like a great choice to clear up the muddied water of the past. As said before , a class act. Will restore instant class to a program in desperate need of a proven coach. Here comes the green, black and gold !!!! LB

I would agree he beat some weak sisters early in the year as he always does (even runs the scores up nicely) , and that uncle billy has a few more studs than GC ---other than that I think you are nuts . He had what 3 or 4 years to produce ? Won 1 meaningful title , a district championship , big dang deal, GC used to sneeze at those. Going a few games over 500 against that crummy GC schedule now plays is nothing to be proud of. go have a party with the other 20 JBH supportors in the county. Adios LB

If you don't think high school kids can be over-excited for a big game I don't think you understand kids . I mean over excited to the point they can't execute . Not over intense . over excited , over hyped . understand ? Do you disagree ? LB

When the animation looks like a spoiled toddler going thru the terrible 2's. To be exact ---When the coaches "animation" interferes with the players ability to concentrate on the given job they are supposed to be doing. Which is just what happened at GC during the hicks years. He was so fired up and over-intense the kids could not relax and play ball. LB

just saw the thread on the probation ---looks like the GCHS admin and KHSAA think rules were broken , not just bent. So either a whole bunch of folks are wrong OR Mr Hicks is being picked on. I'll eat crow and apologize if I'm wrong but I'd guess Hicks let his desire for wins override his good judgement. He loves BB and I really think he loved the kids , but it's still possable to love kids and BB and screw up big time. If the truth shows he broke recruiting rules I'll never forgive him. One of my fav' sayings is the truth is like water , it always leaks out. I hope it does. LB
