Re: D II Regionals @ the Convo

Once again, I’ll never get wanting to play the Central first instead of the SE when you have the choice. It’s probably misguided thinking that it’s preferable to have an opportunity to be the “observer” (if you win the 6pm game) than to be observed in the 8pm game. Swinging for the fences to make a...

Re: Harvest Prep v North Adams

ah, yes, recruited by a guy whose voice got permanently destroyed to hell due to autoimmune disease. Great toolset to recruit with, right there. To get kids into a school that expels kids for hand-holding. Good stuff! If Dave Dennis coached at a local exurb school, like Chillicothe, he’d be respect...

Re: Harvest Prep v North Adams

I don’t think anyone is saying Harvest Prep isn’t a good program. I would imagine going to school there is a positive for the kids that go there. But let’s not act it’s a level playing field. Plenty of transfers happen down this way. But our schools are drawing from an area with what, 100,000 peopl...

Re: Harvest Prep v North Adams

... I always have a problem with the Central District teams looking at the SE District/Regional as a "bump in the road" to them getting to the Final Four ... For what it’s worth, I don’t necessarily think that’s the case this year — and it could be that it may not be the case anymore in t...

Re: Monroe Central

Agree MC by more than 12. The bishops haven’t beaten a good team this year and got worked pretty good by Martins Ferry. Mason does a good job of limiting the teams top scorers. There is no one to stop Howell on this team. They will try and slow down the tempo but will get abused inside. MC is in a ...

Re: Monroe Central

The thing with ‘Crans is if they aren’t 100% healthy, then they are going to be on the ropes from opening tip. The Labishak kid is a strap. They’ve had some injuries in their backcourt, IIRC, so if they’re still banged up then that’s just going to narrow the upset bid.

Re: OHSAA Board of Directors Approves Expansion Proposal

Maybe I'm wrong here, but I thought Africentric had some kind of selection process for getting into school. Not everyone who wants to go can go, so they pick the kids who get to go. It’s true that you can’t put in and expect to be enrolled by default. That said, I doubt their rejection rate (or rat...

Re: OHSAA Board of Directors Approves Expansion Proposal

Just too bad they didnt put all of the corrupt religious/africentric schools in division 1. They should at least be bumped up 2 divisions. Africentric? You're joking, right? Africentric is a public high school that is part of Columbus City Schools. Funny how many great basketball players seem to ra...

Re: How will the tournaments work next season?

If the SE were to be apportioned, it would likely be the SE divvied into thirds, and from there they’re paired to the SW, C and E.

Re: Zanesville job

Competition wise the small school MVL teams are much better competition than what Zanesville will see in the LCL. West M has the footing to be competitive and play for league crowns in the MVL small. Zanesville doesn’t with the LCL big. Doesn’t mean MVL small is better competition than the LCL big.

Re: Ohio Speaker Of The House...Concerns With OHSAA Ticket Situation...Bill Introduced

The schools need to "go on strike" against the OHSAA, simply let everyone in free, and report zero attendance until ticket prices drop on all ohsaa owned events. And the first school to do that will be banned from hosting any contest. Leading isn't easy! Hosting a game isn't a great money...
