It would be crazy to see how many regional titles every school would have if every team in the 14th had always played with all homegrown county kids.

Due to covid protocol, one of their best players, Levi Mayabb has been out the majority of the season. For Wolfe county to have a chance of beating PCC, Skylar Richie has got to play more aggressive. At times, he looks like he’s lost on the court. Wilgus Tolson is has matured into one of the best point guards in the state. The kid has more grit than the rest of the Wolfe team combined. He just about single handedly beat Breathitt by himself.
How does the Ritchie kid get more aggressive when he only touches the ball 3 or 4 times a game.They don't run no offense play barn yard ball.Too many pistol Pete's Wolfe Co. Can't beat nobody period

Hate to break it to ya Jim but this is a guards game. Big men these days are usually the last option on scoring. Better crash the boards and get garbage points.

Gotta agree with Turnover, lots of barn yard ball in the 14th and 15th. Probably why they never win at state any.

No way Tolson makes Breathitt better. He’d take shots away from Breathitts stud Sperry. Bellamy is all Breathitt needs at Pg.

bhs has too many wilgus tolsons already on the team.
Tolson is a true point guard. Averaging almost 7 assists a game. Breathitt needs someone who can feed the post and get players open shots. No, Breathitt doesn’t have a single player on their roster like Tolson.

Tolson going to UK?

Mckenzie at Perry lead PCC in scoring the last 2 games. These kids are breaking down the defense and looking for who has the best shot.
Taking what the defense gives them.
Thats why you have had 5 commodores lead in scoring this year. They celebrate a good assist as much as a dunk. Don't get me wrong, they are kids and all want to score but they can beat you in a variety of ways.

Surprised nobody attempted to take a charge on Sperry, multiple times the opportunity was there.
Speaking of transferring kids, breathitt has 3 of their own. 2 who went to the city school the majority of their life and another from Owsley.

I don't think this guy is talking about assists.

Collins came from Buckhorn. Wolfe county- The big Richie kid has been to 5 different schools, Perry got a boy from Estill and Buckhorn. Cordia has a whole team from New York. Duff from Hazard came from 2 different schools. Every team does it, it is part of basketball. Also, look around different regions and tell me a team that has a chance to win with every kid from that same school system.

Wolfe County doesn’t recruit like the other schools do. That’s probably why they haven’t won a region title.(12-19-2021, 05:55 PM)BiscuitNGravy Wrote: It’s been going on for years down there so it’s no surprise to anyone that it happened again this year.
