[AshlandTcat06]

First off, congrats to Elliott on the win. They were down as much as 10 in the first half, 29-20 at the half and 39-30 at one point late in the third quarter, and they continued to shoot well and didn't quit. Hats off to them. Jonathan Ferguson was on fire for Elliott with 32 points, 22 of them coming in the second half. I thought Ashland also played well, but just couldn't convert a couple free throws and open looks near the end of the game. But we definitely played our butts off.

On another note, I do agree with ABomb14. I have a ton of respect for Mike Flynn as a coach and as a person, but I think that it's time that him and Ashland go their separate ways. I think we need someone that can raise talent and build a system around the talent they have, and not one where they are put into a system that may not work well for their abilities. I also think we could use someone who could motivate the players rather than a disciplinarian. There have been several good players I can think of that have quit the Ashland basketball program these past couple of years. Once again, I do think that Flynn is a great basketball coach (no denying that, the numbers say it all), but I think it's time for him to move on.

Also, once again, congrats to Elliott County on the victory and good luck in the rest of the regional tourney. I'm rooting for you all the rest of the way!  :thumpsup:
