#10 Rules

Simon???? Every year it supposed to be Simon, 1. Oldham 2. Anderson 3. Shelby 4. Simon best player Billy Payne/Eric Dunlap or C.J. Penny sleepers: Gallatin, Henry, North, South, Owen

Heard they lost one of the best players in the region and should be down, plus will they go deep in football playoffs?

Ron Kinmon is a class act! Great coach, they have some talent coming, every team goes through some hard times, administration is also suspect. Their young kids have a lot of talent coming up, Walton and Grant will be awesome to see this year, Walton will surprise some teams this year, remember they played Oldham well last year, and they have one of the better guards in the region in Ponsor, saw him score 20 straight points this summer! Simon is the obvious choice, the next couple years could be tough for them as well!

By the way last two years Henry and Owen have averaged about 17 wins themselves, I just checked their wins and losses, I know from watching the younger groups coming up that times are about to change, the next two years Gallatin will be solid and Coach Jones will have to work very hard to have the same type success

No, the kids that won games for them are Perkins, and last year Edmonson, they lost to Oewn last year, should have been twice we all know what happened there, lost to Henry last year, beat Henry by 1 twice, so I do not think they are so dominant. Wiithout Edmonson last year they would have beaten only Carroll, and would have not made it to the regional tourney. We will just have to wait and see, but I think they will win 18-22 games becuase of the all a, and conference play. It will be interesting to see who else they beat! Who is going to come off the bench for them? Can they press now? Great ??????

They are not going to be able to score points like they did last year, Maddux and Carrolton both stay in foul trouble, they have one sub and he is a freshmen, high expectations every year which I would say drives their coaches crazy, they will make the All A, and they will make their tourney but let's not get carried away, Owen should have beat them this summer and they only beat Henry by 4, that district will be fun to watch again. Their 2weakness last year and this year will be no athleticism to jump over people and score, and no shooter except for Brown.

You are right lots of coaching experience, Montgomery could be good next year, after that we will see how good their staff really is.

One of the reasons Hatch played that style was to win. I believe that is his job the last time I checked, He did whatever it took to win at Graves and will have to do the same thing at Perry Central, they can not press, shoot 3's etc, he would do a lot more with his teams if they could. Fun basketball teams to watch or teams that win? At the state tourney a couple years ago he beat South Laurel and if it would have been fun to watch they would have lost. The next game they lost to J-town because they could not slow it down, he probably should have pressed and shot 3's and lost by 30, Ha!

Any idea when they are going to make a decision at Perry Central, I have heard that they have made an offer, any thoughts:thumb:

I'm sure that Mr. Miller and Mason would love to dance, they are loaded for the next 5 years:dancingpa

Congrats to Coach Holland, hope that PC feels the pain of the bulldogs,:ylsuper:

Hatch is from Graves, easy top 10 coach in the state, over 500 wins if I am thinking correctly, more than 5 trips to Rupp, style might not be flashy but WINS flashy enough!:thumb:

Heard that Alan Hatcher and Whitaker from Bell are the final 2. Both are great and would do well at PC. :dancingpa

Very deserving, Congrats to Griesser!!!

Congrats to Coach Greisser!!

Coach of the year in the 8th region was Holland, and the KABC was Drury, and I know Holland had applied I thought?

I have heard that it was the coach who was the coach of the year in the 8th region, if so great hire!

Montogomery will hire a good person, and that person will also be a good coach. They have quality administration, you can never make everyone happy with who you hire,

Especially if he can sing the national anthem, a lot more to coaching, budget, inlfuence on kids, being a teacher etc, scheduling summer games, schedule itself, running a program which is the #1 priority in this case. Building and maintaining a program is what Montgomery needs, someone with vision.:dancingpa

What has happened at Danville? And people wondered why it was a tough job to apply for!:ylsuper:

Why would Holland not be considered? Coach of the year twice in four years? Has took a team that has never won or had a program and built one. He has been nothing but successful everywhere he has been. If Montgomery wants a young coach he would be a great hire, if they want someone who has a lot of expertise then they should look at the other candidates. But not a good hire is funny! You must be hater from Henry, Ha!

Scott Chalk? I heard he may be fired at Frankiln, getting beat by the team you left WOW! Those are some of the names I have heard also, I know that Holland is applying along with Hatcher those are a lock. The Montgomery job is a move up for both guys, Hatcher just wins, wins, and wins, Holland is at Henry where he has built it up but being competitive every year TOUGH!:thumb:

Has he ever been a head coach? There is a lot more to coaching than the sidelines, budget, fundraising, etc are important, being able to sing does not help you coach I don't think. He is a very good assistant at Scott County, I thought he would wait on that job, simply because he knows how that school system works!

The question that is often asked is whether or not they will go with a young coach or an older experienced coach. Personally I would go with the younger guys, like Greisser or Holland. The other guys probably are not going to stay and build unto the prorgam and a lot of times are looking for a quick way to be successful. Montogmery had a coach that was successful because he built a program and was in that program for a long period of time, it takes stability to maintain quality programs. For example Hatcher at Graves, 6 trips to the sweet 16 with Graves, he has built a great program because of his hard work these past several years.

I have heard these names at Montgomery, and all these guys are very qualified, and do great jobs Alan Hatcher at Graves Jason Holland at Henry Wayne Breeden at Owensboro Scott Chalk at Franklin, This is an impressive list, some young quality coaches along with some of the guys that have been there done that:banana:
