I find it really funny though as I remember Dicky giving out the KHSAA phone number when Rose Hill had Mayo and Dawson, now Ashland is worse than Rose Hill ever thought of being. With Dickey being a total Ashland homer I wonder his take on transfers taking Ashland kids spots.
Ashland fan base and staff all have the same issue. They cheat and get caught and still try to justify. Carter is a good player and no disrespect his play. He is not the best player. Spurlock stats are better, head-to-head Spurlock is 3-1 this past season with game winning shots vs Carter. Over the season stats. Both rebounds and points per game are about the same. Shooting percentages goes to Spurlock. The range that Spurlock shoots the ball translates to the next level. No one gets face guarded like Spurlock in the Region. Most team invite Carter to shoot a 3. Both have a good basketball IQ. Based off stats and play. Spurlock edges Carter as the complete best player. Stats don't have an opinion. They are just facts that are not disputable. KHSAA website doesn't keep assist. So, I don't know what they have in that category.
Oscar led the nation in many statistical categories but didn't get drafted. Players that didn't start for Kentucky and had average stat lines have gone in the lottery. But who cares which of these two young men is "better"?
And no, not all or most of any fan base does anything the same, let alone cheat. Most never get on a forum or discuss high school sports past a few minutes before or after a game.
Hoopfan, I'm a casual long term contributor on here (272 posts in 14 years). I usually try to goof off and lighten situations but I'm going to be serious, at least for this post. I love the 16th region and I have taught and coached for over three decades in many of our schools. Let me clue you in on something, we don't have any bad school systems in our area. We are blessed. I'm not going to debate you because I believe you to be aloof and beyond reason and you appear to have true hate in your heart. I know you'll keep on and as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow you will reply to this post because it's just beyond you to let someone have the final say, but here goes anyway. I hope to goodness you are not the father or in any way related to this young man or the program. If you are then you are setting an awful example for the people in your life. Whenever I coached or had kids in high school I absolutely would never post on this forum or any other for that matter. It's just a bad look and unprofessional. Kids watch and listen. Chances are that none of the kids in either of these programs will make a living playing basketball. Life gives us all opportunity to shine. Don't mess that up because of hate or jealousy or whatever drives you. I don't know the Ashland coaching staff sans Ryan Bonner, who I know to be a top notch human being. If he has a coach on his staff that messed up he'll address it and be the first to own up to any issues and deal with any consequences. Let's have fun discussing sports as human beings and try to elevate all of our kids no matter which school they attend. Let the people that deal with these things sort it out and when the chips fall we all move on. If that means Ashland did nothing wrong, so be it, if that means that Ashland did something wrong and all sports have to cease and desist , so be it. Nothing you say on here is going to influence that one way or the other, take the highroad....
