I think that this showcase shounds amazing. I am really excited to see it on ESPN for the big nationwide matchups. I love it!!! Kentucky is the mecca of basketball. Does anyone know the lineup for the classic down in Pikeville. Oh and Strikeout King..... Just as a reference, who is that lovely lady in your avatar.

There will also be an ESPN game featuring Chicago Simeone (likely number 1 team with the #1 recruit) vs Huntington Prep (Likely number 2 team)

Another game between Brewster Academy and Kiske. Brewster has two potential UK guys on their team

I forgot her name. I'll try and look it up. She is pretty hot Big Grin

Interesting opening game, Letcher vs West Jessamine. Current LCC coach Hammonds came from WJ.

I believe Buckhorn plays Boone Co. on Dec. 11 at Rupp, also. Not sure of the time, though

ballstar · 08-24-2011, 12:08 PM

Perry Central sure upped the schedule this yr it seems. Just took a glance at khsaa website and they will be lucky to finish .500 this season. Got 3 tuff games at rupp as well.

**Scotty doesn't know** · 08-24-2011, 01:57 PM

I may actually try to go to this here in Lexington

**Strikeout King** · 08-25-2011, 05:04 PM

just seen PCC's schedule. They the Australian Travel team listed to play in the Kentucky Showdown at Rupp on Jan 6 but they also have a home game against Mercer County listed for that date. what's up with that?

This kid is the real deal.
I saw another article were his coach in NY is complaing and making some recruiting accusations against a few people. Said there might be an investigation.
It's not called recruiting it's called boosting the economy by putting people to work. :popcorn:
