LOL ...
...I assume the "list" you are referring to is on the other thread ... there's no back tracking - if you read - the list are teams that were young THIS season that I expect good, big things from this upcoming season ... of course I'm going to leave out teams - there's 71 of them ... "I do my homework" as best I can - I do have a day job ... never perfect ... and yeah, I STAND BY MY LIST as a list of young teams from this season who WILL be even better next season ...hannancoach wrote: ↑Tue Mar 14, 2023 7:35 amWhats the reason for the BroMance? I never even heard of this dude before. Only reason I say anything now is cuz he made a preseason/offseason ranking list and then backtracked when he realized he left out some perdy good baseketball teams. I mean make a better list based on more research and then have the cajones to stand by it.pfloyd wrote: ↑Mon Mar 13, 2023 5:36 pm... thanks so much Hoopie74 ... we've talked throughout the years my friend - we are much alike in that we truly enjoy high school basketball - the whole atmosphere surrounding the game -from appreciating the players, the coaches, the fans ... no dog in the fight at games for me - I hope I come across in a positive way when reporting on the games I cover ... and you too on the summer Hoopie - I need full reports on your Indians this summer !!!

The opportunities are there for next year's Warren team to go from a good season to a great season.Would like to see Lupardus become the post player I know he can be and for Barry to gain some mass this off-season. Also really liked how Cressey finished this year but he needs to develop farther in order to become a scoring threat. Already toughening up next years schedule with the addition of Parkersburg South and Fed Hock.pfloyd wrote: ↑Tue Mar 14, 2023 3:01 pm...I assume the "list" you are referring to is on the other thread ... there's no back tracking - if you read - the list are teams that were young THIS season that I expect good, big things from this upcoming season ... of course I'm going to leave out teams - there's 71 of them ...

Logan hires Coach Bell
South Webster hires Coach Norm Persin
Logan Elm hires Coach Dropsey
Waverly hires Coach Bradley
Ironton St. Joseph hires Coach Ed Fry
Portsmouth to hire Coach Lisath Thursday night - welcome home Coach Lisath ...
... a bunch of good hires as the head coaches here! Norm with 778 wins, Coach Lisath with over 300 wins on his resume' - over 1000 W's between the 2 head coaches alone!
Huntington Ross ??? anyone hearing any names being mentioned? Coach John Bruce long time JV coach at Unioto ??? lives in the Chillicothe area? I haven't heard any names - thinking out loud here only ...
Westfall??? Coach Meister stepped down at the end of February - did I miss a hire at Westfall?
Paint Valley? I haven't read or seen that the HC stepped down but smurray brought it up -anyone know for sure on this one?
What other openings have I missed that will have changes at the top come the 2023-24 campaigns?
... great stuff! makes me smile just reading, knowing that Coach Lisath is BACK Below the Lancaster-Dixon Line - HOME on the river again ... a Trojan once again ... I remember in a post you made trojandave following me coming down for the Minford @ Portsmouth game towards the end of this years regular season ... great crowd in attendance! which I'm thinking will be "the norm" now at PHS ... but you posted that "We need more of you at Trojan Arena" - I'm thinkin' that will be the case during the 2023-24 season ...trojandave wrote: ↑Sat Apr 29, 2023 12:04 pm Listening to Coach Lisath at his appearance at PHS to meet the team last Tuesday, it was music to Trojan fans ears to hear him say, "We're going to run and press, run and press, run and press, run and press, and run and press. Getting back to how the Trojans thrived on that for years. Also excited to hear that he is going to challenge our kids schedule wise. Not making any win predictions, but the SE district and the OVC are going to see a different Trojan team in their style of play. A Trojan team ready and in shape to run and use the whole court defensively.
Super excited to see the Coach Lisath led Trojans in 2023-24.
He may not be successful at McClain, but that might be the single greatest coaching turnaround ever for McClain. Heck of a coach.
