    Mr. Basketball finalists announced

    Thankful the Kwasniak kid wasn’t even considered after witnessing first hand the shenanigans of him and his dad last week. Embarrassing in so many ways.

    DIII State Semifinal: #1 Garfield Heights Vs. #3 Louisville - Live Stream

    He gets great players and develops his players.... but yes, in game coaching is a whole different animal. It's not his strength. If he can hire a good assistant to help him with that then he's looking at a state title next year.

    ohsaa got it right

    One division for 800+ Ohio schools? I don't even want to do the math to determine how many games the winning team would play in the postseason. And you want a school like Ironton St. Joe (30 ish boys in last count) to compete in the same division as schools like Mentor and Moeller? Interesting.

    ohsaa got it right

    I have enjoyed the 7 divisions so far and honestly for the most part I've witnessed mainly competitive games from the Sweet 16 on. The one knock is kids not having the full experience of a Final Four game by it not being at the same location as the finals... I wish there were a way to stretch...

    Mr. Basketball finalists announced

    I'm not sure how the process works but is it true that each district can only put up one player for Mr. Ohio? I read that on another thread. If so, that definitely would be the reason Kwasniak was not on the list. He's a very good player... but obviously Johnson is the better of the two --...

    D6 Sweet 16

    I've seen Monroe 4 times this year and the floor won't have an impact on them. They have good athletes, move the ball well, have plenty of spacing etc.... Have an absolute stud in Howell who can score on any floor. Them vs. Marion Local would be fun but I genuinely think MC is the best team...

    Reynoldsburg v Hilliard Bradley "Intentional Foul"

    Likely none... which is why you guys need to stop entertaining the one buffoon who recommended that. Not worth your time. Reynoldsburg made the right decision AND still won and went to the Final Four. Congrats to them!

    D6 Sweet 16

    IMO this is Monroe Central's to lose.... they are better than Kirtland. Colonel Crawford is very solid but can they handle the big kid from Marion? From what I've seen ---- Monroe is the best left but all games should be competitive.

    D5 Sweet 16

    Minford vs. Lutheran East Columbus Academy vs. Cincinnati Summit Country Day Minford is actually very very good for a SEO team as they have two players committed to D2 Universities. One being a guard in Myles Montgomery who has scored 2000+ points and is committed to West Liberty.... the...

    D7 Sweet 16

    Russia definitely the favorite... Arlington is playing great ball but they have to face the beast. Cornerstone vs. South Webster is a toss up IMO.. People will favor CCA because of being in a big city and the Kwasniak's kids name being so well known.... but like I've said all year this South...

    Question.. Looking at MaxPreps.. Why did Summit Country Day have to forfeit 6 games in the season?

    IVC 24-25

    First look at Garaway and Martins Ferry and wow the D5 East was much weaker than I anticipated. Minford called the dogs off way early or they would have won by 40. I’m not sure what Garaways game plan even was? They never once tried zone even though Kayser and Montgomery scored at the rim...

    D7 Sweet 16

    6 of the 8 Elite 8 teams are locked in with the other two coming tonight. I'd really like to see South Webster win their region and I'd imagine they're the favorite to do so. They lost in overtime to Hiland last year in the Elite 8 (who then lost in the state championship to Richmond Heights)...

    D6 Sweet 16

    Thanks, definitely what I was expecting. I’ve seen Eastern Pike several times this year. They’ve played 2 top tier teams and got absolutely destroyed (South Webster beat them by 30 without their 6’8” 1st team all state player even dressing…. And Minford beat them by 45) Fun little town… play...

    Montverde coach Kevin Boyle leaves for Spire Academy.

    Just out of curiosity since I'm not in that area.... Who is the big donor(s) for Spire? They must be having an abundance of money pouring in. Boyle wasn't going to leave Montverde for a cold weather state / unproven destination without a lucrative offer. And yes, this will have a strong impact...

    Steubenville vs Hartley

    I was very impressed with Steubenville on Sunday. I haven't seen Hartley but I know they're a great program. Regardless of travel or any other potential factor, I am surprised by that margin of victory. With Steubenville's 3 headed monster at guard I didn't think there was a D3 team left that...

    The 'Turtle' Is Ohio's All-Time Career Scoring King

    Scoring 50+ in a 40 point route is just the wrong message to send. Great scorer, great player, happy for the kid. The coach(es) should be ashamed they keep him in the game during blowouts. Just seems silly and risks injury. Been around the game of basketball many many years and it seems that...

    Reynoldsburg v Hilliard Bradley "Intentional Foul"

    Kids are dumb and do silly things at times. They make mistakes. With that said, yes, this is way over the line and totally uncalled for. He needs to be punished to learn his lesson and also set a precedent for all other players who've seen the video that this type of behavior will not be...

    D6 Sweet 16

    I've seen North Adams a few times. They are senior laden and share the ball well. Definitely a lot of shooters. Any team with a true post presence will cause them serious problems. They move the ball really well and have an abundance of kids who can shoot the 3. Schedule wasn't too good and...
