You must have not watched much basketball in EKY to say he was the most athletic player you’ve ever seen

1- S. Laurel 2005
2- Shelby Valley 2010
3- Paintsville 1997
4- Paintsville 1998

Paintsville 97-98 were premier but hard to put them ahead of 96. I’m not sure there has been a team in the mountains that can be placed ahead of the 96 Paintsville team. Just too much size and length.  Senior leader at the point and T. Tackett at the 2 BOTH could shoot from the perimeter.  6’ 9” C. Rattliff and 6’ 6” bruiser in J. Mckenzie at forward who could also stretch the floor and shoot from outside, to add to 6’ 10” KY Mr Basketball J.R. Vanhoose at Center. The 95 team may have been even better with the addition of B. Lyon who is the most athletic individual I have still ever seen step on a basketball court in eastern KY. There have been some special teams over the years. I’d love to see teams of that caliber in the 15th Region again. Teams that can possibly win more than 1 game at Rupp. It’s tough to do.
