Additions of Eli Johnson to Pikeville makes an already loaded Pikeville team almost unbeatable.

How do you figure when you really have only 1 starter returning and a bench player who got some playing time and a possible transfer who doesn’t share the ball and your other pieces are inexperience at best because of no playing time sounds unbeatable to me, what a joke….

Hey guys.  Found another hater.  Well one of the old ones that created a new profile.   On a serious note. And old school coach take notes this will be on the final exam so you'll want to learn this.

Panthers Return RYLEE SAMONS. He is the best player in the region hands down not even close. That alone makes them a top contender. But wait there's more.   They also return 6th man and a crucial part of last year's team Heath Jarrell who you can't leave open and will be a top defender in the region.    You staying with me.  Okay.   They ALSO have Charlie Fitzer who is 6'9 6'10 and he was groomed by the best big man in the region last year every single day in practice.  And as far as Eli Johnson. He may come in and be the 2nd best player in the region. Yes he's that good.  Don't believe me. Check him out on the ADIDAS AAU circuit. Yes you read that right he plays for Power Circle which is a Adidas team. It's not a local team that some dad put together full of their hs kids and go play in small low quality tournaments it's top competition AAU. Add all of that with THE BEST COACH in the region you my friend have what you call a #1 team.      Now before you raise your hand to try and question any of my statements just think back to your previous 496 profiles and think man I doubted thr panthers for awhile now.  Last year you probably said they won't gel they won't share the ball they won't play Def.  And look what they done.  Hit me up at the end of the season next year with your new profile name and I'll give you this same lesson all over again

Alright Mr Pikeville Backer let me let you in on a little reality, last year’s Pikeville team was practically an all star team and to me Mr Justice isn’t that good of a coach just a good recruiter, cause you can see what kind of coach he is a couple years back having the District tournament at home and get blowed out in the first round and yea I know Samons and Hall were hurt but doesn’t Coach Justice have more players apparently not or he just can’t coach.  Now yes Samons is going to be the preseason 15th Region POY, but like I said in a previous post my top 5 are Pike Central, Johnson Central, Betsy Layne, Magoffin Co and Pikeville. Lastly I’m not a Pikeville hater but posters like you make people hate on them and with you saying they’ll win it again don’t make predictions this early before even the school year starts cause anything can happen injuries, transfers and always some team will come out of nowhere to shock some teams, but if Coach is that good then he should coach through that like he did a couple years ago right….

 
Not that good of a coach.   Hmmn.   Then why does kids from all over hit him up in the off-season to help them improve their game...  let's see.  He's been the head coach now for what 6 years at pikeville.  They have 3 regional 1 regional runner up 3 ALL A regional 1 ALL A STATE 5 district championship has accumulated 139 wins for a AVG. Of 23 wins per season. ( and if he coaches for let's say 30 years that's 685 wins over 100 more than the best coach this region has saw Bill Mike (589 wins 29 years) and as far as the 1 year out of the 6 he didn't win district. 1 yes they got beat in 1st rnd 2 they had 2 starters out in rylle and Lockhart 3 hall was on his comeback year from acl tear and was still wearing his brace.  He was about 70% at that time  4 if you remember it was a 3 way tie abd instead of going by a points system like they should have they did a coin flip.  Still not complaining because I think that'd what lit the fire for this years success. 5 all star team. Yea.  Justice developed those guys to be just that.  They had worrix come in ehoch helped alot but the rest of those guys has been to hs at pikeville developing under Justice since they were freshman except Manns and Roger's.  The other 4 starters were all there from begining. Walter's Robison hall since 7th grade samons since 9th but yea you keep drinking you're Kool aid and making new profiles.  If you're going to hate pick something you can hate on and defend your argument. Other than saying Justice isn't a good coach.     And as far as your statements of you're rankings abd why. Do some more research.  
1 as far as PC Rigdon and Stewart both are rumored heavily on the transfer block with rigdon going to Fleming and BL is doing everything they can to get Stewart to come. Just look at any social media and the proof is there
2 Ryan rose leading jc.   He hasn't done anything to prove he can lead a team. He is 6'8 and hasn't touched being a top 5 of big men in region in any year he's played
3 bl having the best duo.  At what. WWF hard-core matches. Robinson was suspended once for trying to fight in all a and is suspended for first 2 games of season because of his antics of fighting in the regional. All that team wants to do is hype up the off season and fight in the regular season. They won't even win their own district this year 
4 Magoffin does has a great back court but that's it.
