I made the point a couple months back that there are hardly any players in the 13th that are from other parts of the country or even state for that matter. Some transfers within the region but most where from the area to begin with. People may lose their minds and think I'm being biased but to me, Chip McDaniel is the only player that will have a shot at a Mr. Basketball title. If Clay County doesn't do something in the next 2 seasons, he could average 30 ppg and may have to just to win the district. North Laurel has some big kids but they're weak. Marty Bowling is 6'3" and in the top like 7 in the state in rebounding. It's scary times in the area of the Gap. McDaniel, Fox, Barger, who else? Underclassmen?

I'm willing to bet that McDaniel will not waste his time even playing next year, as everyone knows we will be way down after this year. Kid has a bright future in golf, but there's not one player in the 13th that should be considered for Mr. Basketball, now or probably ever in the near future. It's really sad considering how bad it has dropped off.
