[Breathitt Bobcat]

Wow!!

Only 2 players from the 14th and 0 from the 13th on your list. Larry Stamper should be higher than 15th. He was a rugged 6'8 who took his high school team to an OT loss to Lou Seneca from playing in the 1968 state championship game against Glasgow. Then he went on to eventually earn a starting spot on the UK teams of the early 1970s.

Also, there were other great players not listed. Bobby Slusher was 6'7 all stater at Lone Jack in the late 1950s who averaged about 50 points per game and who was coveted by Adolph Rupp but let his career slip away with some bad personal decisions.

Breathitt County has had several star big men over the years. Cecil Clair was a 6'7 center and an all stater who starred at Morehead State in the early 1960s. Doug Cundiff was a 6'6 or 6'7 big man who was a an all stater and star in the late 1950s. 6'5 Charlie Turner and 6'5 Larry Noble starred at Breathitt and later played college ball at
Berea and Austin Peay, repsectively. Arch Johnson was a 6'6 center/forward who was an started and all OVC at Morehead State.

I think Hindman had a big man in the 1960s by the name of John Turner that was very good. Hazard has had some good ones over the years, namely the Rose players, Jim and Chester. Jim played on Western Kentucky's 1971 Final Four team. Owsley County had 6'5 Jeff 'Moose' Moore who was MVP of the 1990 State All A tournament and later played college ball in Florida. Lee County had 6'8 Jeff Ginnan that was a member of the UK team in the late 1980s.

Breathit High had Tim Gross in the early 90's.He was 6'4" but played like 6'8".
