Man some of you Elliott Co. fans are too sensitive! If someone gets on here and doesn't say that Elliott Co. is the best team in the state or if another team in the state can beat them you have a heart attack. Everyone on here knows that Elliott Co. is a top team in the state, but other people have teams they like or root for, and sometimes they think they are better than Elliott Co.! That is their opinion.

I for one think that Elliott Co. is a great team with some great kids, I've never seen anyone play as hard as the twins and Ferguson do.

But as for you making the above statement, where did they just come from? South Carolina! I believe there were tournaments in state that were closer than Myrtle Beach! Fans in KY want to see the top teams play each other so they can compare them to each other. In the past two years Elliott Co. played one top 20 team in the state of KY., and the Elliott fans talk about this game over and over.

They could have easily played in the King of the Bluegrass or the Republic Bank Tournament (formerly the 5th Third) and played several top 20 teams in the state but I can understand Coach Mays not wanting to take a chance losing to a KY team his last year coaching. All of us that root for seeing those top 20 match-ups will have to wait until the All A or the state tournament which I have NO doubt that they will make it to the sweek 16. I also feel that they will make it out of the 16th Region in the All A too because Euton and Jackson left Rose Hill.

FYI, they were invited to and turned down both the KOtB and the 5th/3rd. Reason being...........They went to the BBC. These 3 tournaments are all at the same time!!!!!!!!!! I find it interesting that last year when they played in the 5th/3rd people complained that they didn't play in a better holiday tourney????? This year, they go to probably the premier holiday tourny in the country, and people cry that they dodged in state tournies?????????? As for the Jackson/Euton cheapshot..........Those kids left so they would have a better chance to get to a sweet sixteen!!!!!! If you look at Scott Co. thus far.......they aren't exactly setting the world on fire!
