Watched Ray play and was very impressed. But to compare him to a more athletic Webber is kind of silly. He is going to be a good one. UK may look at him but Pitino will never even consider him due to his ties with Bender. Tony can be a D-1 guard but not for sure about a top 10 program just yet. If his shot improves very possible.

Ill agree that Korey Thacker is one of the most underrated player in the 15th...
I just wish some of u people woul actually give credit to the whole team.
Instead of saying ray and tony or ray,tony,and johnny..
Wht not ray,tony,johnny,hayden, and korey...I mean no offense to the other kids but it takes 5 players not 2 or 3.

lol, I notice that too. If you've noticed, I mention them alot, because to be honest, they're damn good too. Kory is one of the best defenders in the 15th, and in my opinion the best. Hayden Mullins really, really takes advantage of the opposing team's attention to Tony by grabbing boards and scoring quite a bit. The team is great, not just Tony and Ray. It's kind of the "new thing", so everyone gets fixated for a while.

And to the dude who mentioned money...come on. I know it's just trolling, but it pisses me off because I know these guys, and I've heard the reasons out of their mouths. Basketball is secondary in Canada..not theonly reason, but to be honest, it's none of your business if Tony or Ray don't tell you personally.

But this isn't going to be turned into a discussion about that. Let's keep it on the boys and the team. We can kind of use the thread to track their progression as a team, especially since alot of people have wondered about how well they'll gel together. It's just amazing and I love it. Can't wait to watch the Pburg game tomorrow.

[Real Badman]

:lmao::hilarious::please:haven't seen Rick or Cal here yet . And you will not . So I call BS to all your other rumors . Oh they've called . BS .

Heard Sean Miller on the horn though...That's more then anyone at Betsy Layne will ever get.

[vundy33]

We're not starting that hating shit in this thread. Haters gon hate, let them. We are going to show Kentucky what we're made of, and we're going to do it with class, not bullshit reaches for info and rumors.

That tis the end of it.

[ole_blue_sack_15]

good basketball player, great kid, and took money to go there. just like webber :biglmao:

:biglmao:

[BlueSky]

Congrats to the first high school pro team in Pike County. You have worked really hard to achieve such greatness. Be careful how far you climb, it could be a long fall some day. Shame you could not have made the climb on your own.

[vundy33]

You see what I mean people? You all are so stupid and close-minded, you really have no idea how wrong you are, lol...

Keep up the hating. Our boys feed off it. Let's go.

And we're not claiming shit. Fans and media are the ones going wild, not those close to the team and the the boys themselves.

[wood_chuck]

the only thing i can say is......i think these guys are better than the cordia transfers lol

[vundy33]

I don't know much about them other than Cordia fans were going crazy about them and their coach before the season, and they got their heads kicked in by Knott Central and those backstabber Justices. But Knott Central is abnormally good too, lol. I really hope we get to play them somehow this season.

After watching Ray Kasongo, he reminds me of a young Chris Webber. But a bit more athletic than Webber was keep in mind he is a great kid also the sky is the limit for the Young man:Thumbs:

From the hyperbole department...

[HD28]

Hands down the best guard in Kentucky for sure to quick can pass it and can shoot it very well and can jump and dunk any kinda way you want it also Korey Thacker is the most underrated kid in the region when he goes East ridge goes Korey is hard to stop Haydon Mullins is decent also but he shoots to many jump shots instead of going to basket and johnny prime time miller is like a travid ford type player !!:yum::yum::yum::yum::yum::yum::yum::yum::yum:

Classic example of why parents should limit their child's time on the internet...

[thegr81]

Chris Webber????Mcdonalds all American,College All american,NBA All Star,etc...MORE ATHLETIC than???? If I'm not mistaken Webber was the #1 ranked player in his class in the nation. Could be true I haven't seen him play but this sounds alittle far fetched to me.Is he ranked amoung the top players in America for his class? Again he may be and I may be wrong,just stating that to be mentioned in the same breath as a p[layer like Webber you better be head and shoulders above anyone in Kentucky.

They won't ever see any of those kids unless somebody gives those kids a map to East Ridge and gas money. Maybe a helpful AAU recruiter can show them how to get there.

[bluebloodedcatfan]

OK what i've seen of the kid . He may be one of the best in this area , One of we will see . But the best in the states ? A little school pride there uh . Time will tell how good . A lesser team with a good coach can't stop the best . So that answer will be answered also . And 1 D1 player can lead their team to the Championship .

Still want some of Knott County Central? ABNORMALLY ( deviant,not normal,unusal) good. I think you better check KCC's history....You are not giving them the JUSTICE that they deserve!

[killerb]

Back stabbing Justices?

Shouldn't be hatin on the Justices......if they hadn't left, you wouldn't have your UK Wildcat coach and two transfers.

[HD28]

I'm just glad to know this Kasongo kid is an actual person...not some mythical creation...cause he "is for real"!

[SuperB70]

I watched the ER game against P'burg. Wolter is very good and will only get better but best in the state. Nope. Not by a long shot (no pun intended). He is quick but his ball handling skills haven't quite caught up with his quickness. It will come and he will be a superstar but he has a long way to go to be hung with best in the state. JMHO

[3fan4life]

I have watched them both play.. and they are great kids and athletes .. it will take a bit for the team as a whole to get it down.. but it will happen
