That wasn't Arnold with the short shorts fyi.

Honestly have no problem with kids beimg left off, especially by writers who probably haven't watched 2 games all year. My issue was the D1 is what matters quote. That's just not true. I may know a thing or 2 about college basketball myself lol 😉 & was sitting with a coaching friend fresh off the NCAA tourney myself watching some kids at state. And I have seen 3/4 of these kids on the list & plenty more. Key was far & away Mr. Basketball. These awards have little to do with college potential vut what they did for their teams and the season they had.

Whats funny is you say D1 is what matters. I guess some of these schools in the SWAC (D1) Conference whose facilities or deplorable, kids go into debt to play D1, lose on a consistent basis & the school struggles to keep it's doors open is the much better option than a D2 or NAIA school where they can leave with no debt, win games (even possibly beat soke D1s like these mentioned), play in nicer facilities & not worry about the school status everyday. I can go on all day with "smaller colleges" which are much better ON & off the floor than lower level D1s. But again, D1 is all that matters.

Again the other 2 from that region, who are good ball players, are D1????!!! Your own logic is busted and makes no sense. Also, Arnold has D2 offers and some D1s who have been watching him all year that just haven't pulled the trigger yet. McClain had interest from LMU (who would beat A LOT of D1s, especially in this state) & other higher level schools. Again, your logic does not match the reality of this list.

So Fountain & McKinney (from the same Region as McClain, Pace, Ledford & Arnold) are better prospects or D1 players (since that's the only thing that matters 😂)???? Foolishness on that "all that matters" comment.

Great post BamaPappy!

If you are trying to minimize this kids skills you have a)never seen him play and/or b)just want to hate just to hate. This kid dropped 30+ppg in big time AAU events in Indiana (MVP awards too) and other states but I guess those weren't good enough either.

Great post tradertwo

Truth^

Midtnmale I hope these other posts help you out a little more.

Just because he jerks and falls dosent mean he is getting hit lol. He does a great job of selling it as well.

Harriman has about no choice but to just let Key and Clay get uncontested layups now. 3 key players with 4 fouls and another 2 with 3. With that said Harriman better hitnfree throws.

I've been a Key fan all week but for goodness sakes don't blow on the kid or he's going to the line 2nite.

Anybody that wants to argue for the refs, I challenge you to go and read all the state tourney posts and see how many people are upset by this showing this week. And hardly anyone says its one sided but bad all the way around. That speaks volumes.
