... jchitwood - GREAT job on the "napkin stats" for the SHL ... WOW!!! IF anyone didn't know about the SHL - they do now - outstanding insight and information for the rest of us ... thanks for keeping track AND KNOWING of what you are posting about ... http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/8...

Coach Kelley - working out the logistics but Pfloyd will be in attendance tomorrow night at the Oven to take this game ... should be a great game ... haven't seen Piketon since their first game at ZT TipOff classic this year ... will be good to see the improvement - gives me a chance to see Evan Le...

... please don't interpret what I started on this thread as "ALL coaches not teaching their kids how to play in the post" - there are fine coaches that DO - BUT ... many do not ... Coach Kelley ... that pass into the post is soooooo critical too AND probably just as important is THAT 2nd p...

... I guess one of the points that I didn't do a very good job of emphasizing is that I fully understand "expanding" the individual big man skills to prep him for the next level - HAS TO BE DONE ... BUT from my view in the Cheap Seats over the years is that kids who do play in the post don...

... saw this matchup last season in the 'ville ... look for a great rematch at the Oven Saturday night - what time does the JV game start?

... thanks Ozzie - now THAT'S a menu of games in the area! ...

... I just think sometimes coaches themselves adhere too closely to the adage that "you can't coach size" imo you have a kid with size in the early grades you coach these kids up big time due to their potential at the post high school level in all phase of individual development (inside/ou...

Bingo dave ... I agree ... as you pointed out it is a difficult "line" to walk ... I see so many teams that in my little mind would benefit from NOT so much "catering" to the big and his needs BUT doing as you say the best for the TEAM ... http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/82/im...

... all good points trojandave ... the point that you brought up about size in "our area" - am I wrong in thinking then that because a BIG in our area is anyone from 6-2 to 6-8 that teaching THOSE 6-2 to 6-4 bigs the nuances of playing as a TRUE BIG is important to the success of teams in ...

... now this also brings to the surface the question : " Do you prepare the bigs for HIS future(as datchillicav version) or do you as coach do what it will take for the TEAM to be successful in the present (having a dominant post man) ?" ... http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/82/imagefn9.g...

... thanks 339 Tiger ...

... good point datchillicav ...

... I totally agree with both daniC and TribeM10 ... the "bigs" in our area seem to be perimeter oriented - it might be just me AND I would like to hear others take on this thought ... THE THOUGHT: I'm not convinced that there are many "coaches" who can coach a big to be a legit...

datchillicav - great job on "the People's Elite 8" , although I do like the sound of "the Tea Party Elite 8" LOL ... I went to my first game in almost 2 months Tuesday, will be out on the road Friday and Saturday as well... I look forward to contributing to YOUR rankings soon .....

... will be a different look for the Purple of Logan this go around ... Coach Helber has done a nice job of working in the talented sophomore group of Josh Mutzner (12 points at Alexander), Gaven Jourdan (9 pts vs Alex) and Josh Vermillion (5 pts vs Alexander) - the sophs scored the first 8 points o...

... is this one being broadcast online tonight? and where? ...

... Jottings - we haven't had any snow this direction from the river ALL day ... I'm going to say that it is still a go for tonight - it is listed STILL on the WKKJ site and the WCHI Chillicothe radio station web site ...
