Are they staying in Jackson or will the be moving somewhere else?
#2
I talk to MiKyle from time to time,, he's never mentioned them leaving. I'll ask him and see..

Latest I have heard about 22ft is that a couple local high schools are working overtime trying to get the necessary work done to have them eligible for this upcoming season. One school I know has been in direct contact with several players parents.

Guessing Perry, Cordia and Knott are in that mix?

I asked him about that the other day,, said was just rumors and they wouldn't be going to any local high schools. Guess we'll find out in time.

Hes more than just a student,, being the school revolves around player/athletes,, and there are underclassman that are his teammates.. Jamar Ergas is a soph that UK showed a little bit of interest in this past year. Far as any new players,, have no idea as I've not asked him.

My guess is they are looking for a place that is willing to share their basketball facilities.

Perry and Cordia are the two that I know have heard.

What a disgrace. 22ft Academy is clearly playing on the fine line of eligibility with these players. Typical Eastern KY high school basketball gimmicks. I swear, you can get away with anything in Eastern KY. Its ridiculous.

Come on know recruiting is not only in eastern ky, montgomery county last season, check ballard's players address within the city, scott county on a yearly basis, and the list goes on. The biggest difference eastern ky just toots their horns about it while every one else tries to keep it quiet.

Except Ballard has open enrollment. With its 20+ schools, Jefferson County is a free for all.

You can live next to Western and get into Ballard. You can live next to Shawnee and get into Manual (or X, Trinity, DeSales for a boy and Assumption, Mercy, Sacred Heart or Presentation for a girl).

There are good things about open enrollment.

But then there are bad things. Once an inner-city school starts struggling, it is mighty difficult to get back up (unless you get the SEC-caliber Mathies twins like the Iroquois girls had a few years back).

Ballard has gotten far FEWER transfers than EKY has recently. And it's not even remotely close. Not on the same planet or same solar system.

Cordia, in the last 3 years, could have more impact transfers by itself than in all of Louisville combined. Definitely more than the nearby 18-school 5th Region.

Yes, They will be making a move. The Elite team will be in south Carolina and Kentucky will be used for training players to make a move to the Elite team.

Ridiculous
