IMO i think that you have got off on a warped opinion on how things work just because that phelps will have a dominating team next year that will contend anywhere next year doesn't meen that you can make charges such as this about people that you do not even know.:mad: :mad: :mad:

I just want to state that not once did I say it was political as to why these girls were ruled eligible. I just think it is very odd that most kids when they DO transfer are ruled ineligible and then all of a sudden in this case they have been ruled eligible under the exact same circumstances.

With that said I do not see either one making a huge improvement for the Lady Hornets. They were one heck of a team this past season, but one year with a good coach is not going to turn their program completely around. Hints why a team that was not better than them beat them out of district. That was due to the inconsistence popped up once they were on the big scene. As well with the new district alignment I think it will make it a little bit tougher on them and Pike Central. It will be a brawl with in the 59th this year for 1st - 3rd between Valley, Phelps and Pike Central. The great thing is IMO all three will make regionals. Also IMO it will be between Pike Central and Phelps for first.

My Top 5

1.Johnson Central- By far the favorite, did not lose anything and have a great chance at repeating with a great coach behind them. They are big, fast and shoot very well. The inside game will be theirs for the taking this season. I like to refer to them as the new "Pike Central".

2. Phelps- With the new transfers and a great coach to go with it they are going to make some noise. I think they will get off to a slow start as chemistry will be a problem in the beginning. They have Riley on the inside which will help, especially if she gets stronger during the off season. Last season they lacked ball handling a little bit which got them in trouble.

3. Valley- They have been youthful in the past which is why they have struggled at times. With the loss of Roberts last season they found leaders in those young players and have found some floor generals. They will be small but have a GREAT transition game.

4. Pike Central- The loss of Lowe and Butcher is the poison that will damper the Lady Hawks this season. They got a new coach who right now is sailing the seas, will be interesting to see how they play out this season in the new coaching scheme. Don't get me wrong they got one heck of a coach but his philosophies are much different. I think they will make a late push while starting of with three early losses depending on the schedule.

5. Paintsville- What a scare they gave me this year in the first round of district, I said once we got the draw that it was the worse possible draw we could have gotten. They were young but will now have the maturity to upset any team in the 15th.

This season will be one of the most interesting that we will have watched in a long time. With the new alignment of districts and a field of teams that are matched evenly now 1-5. Good Luck during the summer.
