How many poeple have seen this series?

I finally got to watch it today and I think it was GREAT!
If you haven't seen it. I highly recommend it!

If it doesn't make you relive a lot of memories and want to win a Regional Title....well.....you must not be from KY and not love the game of basketball.

I hope KY NEVER classes High School Basketball!

Can't wait to watch it again!

:bball:

Amen to no classes.

Is that the one filmed back at Fed's Creek?

**OffTheHook** · 12-07-2010, 01:10 AM

YES, It was GREAT!
They mentioned Teams like Oil Springs, Meade and Flat Gap. Wish they would have dabbled a little deeper though into the past of those older schools like Wayland and Inez though. BUT, still GREAT!

Here is a link to where you can get it. You can also find it at Amazon a little cheaper. But, if you purchase it from the link all proceeds benifit UK Athletics.

I remember watching this several years ago.

I've been Googling around for it for years and couldn't find nothing but and IMDB page about it.

Thanks for sharing!

Is this the 3-parts series (I think) from ESPN that Ashley Judd narrates and they have extended segments on O.J. Mayo, Coach Runyon (His first name has left me) from Paintsville, primarily features Eastern Kentucky?

It's available on Netflix as well, dvd format only though...

I remembered watching it and it was great. They did a segment on Whitesburg playing in the state tournament for the first time in over 50 years. It just so happened it was the year ESPN did this documentary.

I remember watching this when it originally aired on ESPN. It was one of the best documentaries I've ever watched.

Watching it again today...lol.

Yeah, it features eastern Kentucky quite a bit and the state tournament.
