[The Chosen 1]

All these kids had to do was what Coach Booher asked them to. BUT they couldn't!! Some of these boys that you mentioned had to be kicked off for "serious" reasons. No coach in America would have kept one of these players you keep bringing up. He made national headlines and no coach could have excused it!! If these kids are so great then they should have played. What point are they trying to prove by not playing high school basketball, which is the greatest time of their life!! The truth is these kids couldn't play by the rules and the current Valley players can. SV lost some very good seniors last year and that is one reason why they did not win the district this year. The other reason is that Pikeville locked them down with an incredible defensive effort and they play harder than anyone in the region. And also, the Pikeville players, school, and community believe in and support their coach. SV should try it sometime because for the last 4 or 5 years everyone just whines and complains about the coaches when they lose. Quit playing the blame game "Chosen 1". Virgie and Dorton always dominate the county in Jr. High then start to drift apart. You better get it together like the maroon has gotten it together or you might have to sit and watch them cut the nets like you did last night for many, many more years to come. Because they beat you last night with a first year coach, 2 freshmen and a sophomore in their lineup down the stretch!!! And then you wonder why (Virgie) people like Todd May and Daniel Harmon want to sit on our bench instead of yours!!

If your saying all the players that quit Booher's team, quit because they couldn't cut it for Booher then you need to check your sources again before you post about something you have no idea about. Last time I checked I didn't see anyone of these players names in national headlines, so you have no point there. Harmon went to Pikeville because of Booher, you can admit it or keep telling yourself other wise. Kiser made national headlines last year when he hit a fan, but he still played untill he got kicked off 7 games later which I didn't understand. And oh yea bball fan, if you think everyone on your team is an angel then like I said you need to check your head so don't be a hypocrite. When you have players that do the same things but you just have no idea about it. None of these players got kicked off of SV's team Bball fan they all QUIT!!! If Colby Newsome quits your team you then you have serious issues because Colby would play for almost anyone. SV's JV team 2 years ago was the best JV team in the state, but their senior year none of them are playing expect for the Riddle's, it's called a coaching change. Yea bball fan SV should support their coach and maybe they would win more than 4 Regional titles in 5 years. 3 Regional titles and 1 All A Regional title, all from the Rowe ERA except 1 title. If Rowe was at SV, Pikeville would be getting No Dorton and Virgie talent so you better just thank god they had a coaching change and that your getting these players now. And sorry Harmon isn't that great at basketball.
