Emmanuel Owootoah: Alabama, Fresno St. Coming Soon
#61
A 5'9 150 lb kid would get so exposed on the defensive end at a high D1 level it would be almost impossible to play him. 6'2 is small for a PG these days, let alone 5'9-5'10.

And all these judgments are being made on mountain basketball. While I love it, it's very different than basketball in Lexington/Louisville. IFthis kid has a legitimate D1 skill set, it's a disservice to him to be playing in the mountains against a bunch of slow kids.

Wow that is a crazy statement. I guess what KCC has done the past two season at the Republic Bank Classic in LEXINGTON does not stack up right? How many state champions has Lexington produced in the last 20 years or for that matter Louisville vs the 12-16 regions? The biggest problem with mountain boys is there tendency to want to stay home.

Bunch of Slow Kids in Lexington and Louisville too. I dont like your comment a bit.
#64
^So have we established Owootoah is one if not the fastest in the state?

I said earlier Morehead maybe, but nobody else. They dressed sombody up in a orange shirt at the Hazard game but it wasn't a Tennessee coach!
#66
Just for comparison, Owootah is not as big nor as good as Dominique Hawkins of Madison Central and he is not getting any offers!

I'll be sure to get a photo of Korey McCray at the game tonight. But never know maybe Principal Mullins and McCray Halloween mask from last fall.:biglmao:

Got a chance to watch this kid play the other night. He is fun to watch. Outstanding speed and ball handling.
#70
The guy in the orange shirt is Tracey Webster, UT assistant. Korey McCray was at the game tonight, too.
#71
Where you at KFan35???:biggrin:
#72
This kid is best in Ky. No doubt

I'd go with Dominique Hawkins as the best PG in the state.

Offered a preferred walk on at UK is what is being circulated
#83

Not sure what part you did not like but sometimes the truth hurts, we can go back in the day and look at the trend of our mountain players. Hall from Virgie was starting at KY and transfered back to Pikeville, Pietrowski from Corbin went to LSU and came back to Cumberland, to many to mention them all, but just lately Justice from Shelby Valley left Louisville to come back to Pikeville. Lexington and Louisville players are slow too!! Ever seen Quinten Snyder play from Ballard, Daryl Hicks from Trinity, Dominique Hawkins from Madison Central, Sweet Washington from Layfayette, Troutman from Bullitt East, the list goes on, and I think some of these guys maybe signing at our local D1's Snyder has committed to U of L and Willis has committed to UK.

Jared Polson have you watched a game this season. Now on scholarship, but joined the team as a preferred walk on.
#86
Forgot about Polson,lol. Owootah is one heck of a player and is super fast. Everybody knocking on his size but the kid is smooth and has great court vision.That would be pretty good to see a player from the 14th play at UK regardless if it's a walk on or scholarship.Congrats if this is true.

It would be the first time ever!
I hope he does even tho he is a transplant to the 14th region!!!

Derek Willis is the best of 2013 in ky.
Quentin Snider is the best pg in the state and is just class of 2014. Q.snider is also the best pg in the state regardless of class..
