new coach who isn’t part of the old guard who can’t stand moeller and their success. Oak hill is about the only other school who would schedule moeller. It’s pretty obvious the entire GMC is jealous. Just look at city votes in past years. Moeller was clearly number one but you’d have 4-5 votes to GMC teamsDidn't they just play Princeton???

Game of interest because Moeller just played Princeton in a very competitive game. SVSM is the D2 state title favorite and Moeller beat them. I think it verifies Princeton is in the mix as top teams in the city. Sorry if it ruffled your feathers.Why would this be a game of interest for the GMC in Dec???? Elder v Sycamore would probably be more of a game of interest ... With how Covid is moving with game cancelations I could see Elder playing a couple more GMC teams this year before a Moeller would .. Moeller schedule has a national schedule feel to it ... if you're talking State tournament I think it's way too early to be thinking about that so many things can happen between now and March
I believe Princeton plays St. X this Saturday at XDidn't feel like starting a new thread and most of the knowledgeable Cincy folks are in this thread.
Cincy Top 10:
1 - Moe
2 - Elder
3 - East
4 - Princeton
5 - X
6 - Mason
7 - LaSalle
8 - Walnut
9 - Oak Hills
10 - Turpin/Middletown/Fairfield
Heard that as well--likely have to re-schedule the next 5 games. 10-14 days in quarantine and then begin practice again--and hope someone else doesn't test positive and then it all starts again. Little Miami and Anderson postponed last Friday due to covid as well. See who has to postpone multiple games between those two schools. The post-Thanksgiving spike is going to be tough on winter sports.Princeton in quarantine.
Yes it's true, at least they rescheduled the LW, and LE gamesHeard that as well--likely have to re-schedule the next 5 games. 10-14 days in quarantine and then begin practice again--and hope someone else doesn't test positive and then it all starts again. Little Miami and Anderson postponed last Friday due to covid as well. See who has to postpone multiple games between those two schools.

I'm guessing there will be 3 or 4 more teams in the GMC shutting down in the next couple of weeks. There will be a lot of makeup games in January and FebruaryLooks like Sycamore has joined Middletown and Princeton with a shut down of boys basketball for 14 days:
12/11, 12/15, 12/18 all PPD on GMC website.
----covid issues likely for that long of a period!!
I think LE will have some battles with Mason, Princeton, and Oak Hills for the top spot this year. Should be very competitive at the top of the GMC this year. I don't know what to expect from Middletown who played tough against a very good St. X teamHamilton blown out on Friday and Saturday this weekend. Mason proves worthy of my #6 ranking losing in OT to East last night. My spidy senses are telling me Princeton may be top dog in GMC this year, It really stinks Covid hit their program. Oak Hills by only 11 over Colerain was surprising again for me. West High blew the doors off Colerain on Saturday.
Conditions aren’t going to be any better in January or February. After the holidays and weeks of everyone staying indoors it will probably be worse.I'm guessing there will be 3 or 4 more teams in the GMC shutting down in the next couple of weeks.

well if the kids r getting over the covid sniffles/flu now, then they will be immune to it for at least 3 months, so a lot of basketball can be played.Conditions aren’t going to be any better in January or February. After the holidays and weeks of everyone staying indoors it will probably be worse.
Not too many. Guy is an institution. Goes back to the old FAVC days.Is there a better coach around sw ohio than Greg Richards. Dude gets it done year after year, never a big name.
Agree... but Mason should be one of the best teams in SW Ohio year in and year out. One of the biggest schools in the state, great facilities, money in the community to support athletics. Mason should be good in all sports every year.Is there a better coach around sw ohio than Greg Richards. Dude gets it done year after year, never a big name.
"D1 talent" is what it just is, "D1 talent", chemistry and coaching are among two of the qualities that it takes to cultivate it. Doesn't guarantee anything!I’m high on Elder too and think they can beat Moe this year, but I don’t think Elder is the overall better team. They could beat them on a given night, but Moe has the better squad.
Does Elders depth make up for Moeller D1 talent? No. But honestly they only have to beat them once, and that’s in the tournament.
No disagreement on my end. It only takes one game. Ross beat Lakota East last night."D1 talent" is what it just is, "D1 talent", chemistry and coaching are among two of the qualities that it takes to cultivate it. Doesn't guarantee anything!
There it is!! Personally, I'm not impressed with Easts' D1 point guard.No disagreement on my end. It only takes one game. Ross beat Lakota East last night.
Don't think that is as big an upset as some think. Ross is good and has a 6'8-6'9 kid that can play. East is not as good as last year.No disagreement on my end. It only takes one game. Ross beat Lakota East last night.
An upset yes but not a major one. Ross would be in the top 3 or 4 in the GMC. They totally devoured Mount Healthy the previous night who Hamilton barely beat. Thought East would win but not surprised it was competitive and close.No disagreement on my end. It only takes one game. Ross beat Lakota East last night.

Is this a once in every twenty years class or is Ross building something with football and basketball?An upset yes but not a major one. Ross would be in the top 3 or 4 in the GMC.

I think Ross is greatly improving in basketball. With that being said, they aren't going to have a 6'9 kid very often. He is a game changer for them.Is this a once in every twenty years class or is Ross building something with football and basketball?
