This is super early to be talking about it but whats everyone's stance on next years teams. What team is losing what players! I know Pea Ridge is returning 3 starters, and 3 kids that played significant minutes. I think Nick Coble, Mikey Mahoney, Carson Rhine, and Landon Allison could make a deep run next year. Especially with one of the best coaches in the 4A
Mills

Mills? Are you feeling ok? Should we call for help? Are you seeing bright spots or hearing loud noises? I was expecting your next year Top 5 to be:
1) Southside
2) Southside
3) The 7A, 6A, 5A and 4A All-Stars
4) Southside Jr High
5) Southside Cheerleaders

what is ICC?
Izard County Consolidated. It's a small school about 40 miles north of Batesville. A basketball powerhouse that has produced a surprising number of college players. They were state runner-ups this year and usually make the final 4.

It's more than that. ICC has a very respected basketball program. He'll get more coaching and visibility at ICC. In basketball going from 4A to 5A, slight difference. Going from 5A to 6A, bigger difference. 6A to 7A, big difference. Going from 4A to 7A, massive difference. Not saying the great 4A players wouldn't be great at 7A it's just the overall rosters and athletes are better. Much better teams. Going in reverse, from 4A to 1A isn't that wide a gully. Small schools are more closely matched in basketball. The coaching matters much more. It's simple math, if you have 2,000 to draw from you'll get more athletes. If you have 200 to draw from you'd better have great coaching.
Quote from: JessieP on March 15, 2018, 02:02:58 pm
Mind you this is hearsay, although Batesville is a small town, but from people that know SS. They say he will age out (19) early next year. They also say Brogdon will transfer to ICC, a smart move for both him and ICC. He will be able to flourish under that coach and ICC will be a clear favorite to win state. Now this is not hearsay, I was told this in person by a coach at a small Central Arkansas College. He would love to have the big guy but he can't touch him because of his failing grades. It has nothing to do with the kid himself, it's a language issue. How SS kept him eligible would be a mystery anywhere else but SS. I guess SS offers ESL courses in Slavic for Batesville's massive Eastern European population.
Your obvious hatred toward SS is evident. It is on EVERY obsessed post you make about this program and the kids in it. I'm not sure how this site can allow such a classless statement like this one. You must live a pretty boring life and don't have a woman around if you spend this much time on this website. You are poking at a GREAT kid that you obviously know NOTHING about.

If he is going to ICC they will be a runaway favorite to win a title. He is being wasted at SS. There is no question he can play but he isn't allowed to flourish where he is. Did you see the video of the last 30 seconds of the game vs. Westside? You're fighting for your life, a trip to the finals are right there. That defense let Felts run around like he was Usain Bolt. I'm surprised the SS players didn't smack him on the behind as he ran unaccosted to the hoop for the game winning LAYUP! You lose on a three pointer, You lose on a half court prayer. Heck, you even lose at the line because you were guarding the hoop. You don't lose on an easy layup. I can't see BP, Westside or ICC losing that way.

I saw the video. It was Brogdon that Felts blew by for the game winning layup. Specifically, how is he not allowed to flourish? Bottom line is he's a good player but not a great one. He can't come close to leading SS to a championship without the big guy. He will be a good compliment to Cooper and Faulkner and should finally get his ring. Not the way I'd like to see it done but to some the end justifies the means.

In my opinion it's a coaching issue. If SS walks the ball up the court and feeds it to the 2 big men they counter Felts dominating game. They chose to jack up 3's most of the game. The way felts was playing you tell the team "make him beat us from outside 15 feet". When he starts to drive foul him outside. If he hits 2 free throws you have a few seconds to tie or win it. You don't let the guy who had owned you all game have the ball and a chance to end the game. You foul the worst FT shooting player on the court with 20 seconds, it's high pressure time with High School kids. Odds are he misses one. You feed Brogdon down low, high chance he scores and maybe gets a "and 1". You never ever ever put the ball in the hands of a player like felts tied with 20 seconds. They hadn't stopped him all game, why would they then? And I feel that on the right team with the right system Brogdon is a scholarship player.
Not sure if they are good enough to win it. But I believe Warren returns all 5 starters.

I think Pottsville will field a good team next year. They return three of their bigger boys and could have a couple contributors move up from last years Jr high team. Still a long ways off.

Pea Ridge will easily win the State title next year. So much skill is returning and they have a great coach to bring them all the way to the Championship
Forrest City drops down also. Rebuilt squad after winning two titles in three years.

Pea Ridge... Umm easily? Not saying they won't... but they won't. Mills will be 4A next season. Westside returns all but 2 players. Batesville Southside (as of today) returns most everyone. Little Rock McClellan will also be there. Star City now has Johnny Taylor and returns several pieces. Warren will have a solid team. Did I mention Mills would be 4A also? The East region will be brutal. Mill wills win that also.
And the players that aren't returning from Southside and Westside are some of the most significant players on those teams. Warren will be pretty good, I don't see what all the hype is with Mills tho
Mills was just one of the best teams in State overall this year and they are dropping down a classification. You're right though, no big deal at all...
Several off the better schools in the 4A, Westside, Baptist, Southside, Pea Ridge, Pottsville, as long as others could compete for the 5A state title. There isn't a huge skill gap between the 4A and 5A

I'll give you baptist but i don't see the others competing with mills and parkview.
Westside is losing 2. The older Felkins and the big kid. Avery Felts is a division 1 athlete and Riley Felkins is right there with him. They'll be in the mix for sure. Brogdon from SS is going to Pulaski Academy and the Patterson kid is going to Harding Academy. Southside will not factor into the 4A.
With all that said, Little Rock Mills will dominate everyone in 4A.
I've been hearing all year that Brogdan was going to ICC. Now Pulaski Academy? What gives?

5A has way better athleticism and physicality though which shows up on the defensive side of the ball especially which leads to a lot more turnovers created. It also shows up in a team's ability to get more easy baskets in the paint either in the post or on the drive finishing at the basket on offense ... I actually think 4A to 5A is where we see the largest jump from one classification to the next in the athletes and physical play. You're completely undermining that part of the game. I got by as a pretty decent player in 4A at 5'11" and 145 lbs, but would have been eaten alive by the really good defensive teams if we played 5A then with my lack of physicality. Baptist was the only team in 4A last season who would have competed well at all in the 5A state tournament last year.

What ? Is this one of those internet hoaxes ? The general consensus is that the biggest jump in quality of players is from 4A to 5A. True, the top 2 or 3 4A teams would be competitive but they would be hard pressed to survive the rigors of a week in/week out 5A schedule.
Southside will be losing 2 starters. Patterson and Brogdon are heading to Pulaski Academy. I hate to see them 2 go and wish them the best of luck. Southside will still be good since they had some 10th graders that stepped up last season and also got several freshmen talent playing next season.

Coach Ross left with 3 State Championships. Coach Miller (who Coached Coach Ross) has moved back into his old spot (from AD) and also has 3 State Championships (and his name on the court). BP will not be as big this year or as experienced, but they will still be very, very tough. 3 of their top 6 players from last season are back and they have several really good shooters coming up from JV & JR High. The big question mark will be the defense. They were one of the best defensive teams in the State (at any Classification) the last 3 years.

I was in Springdale watching a family friend play this past weekend and watched some of the Pea Ridge guys playing together. There wasn't but 3 or 4 that I remember playing last year but I know the PG and Mahoney weren't there for sure. They had their 2 junior bigs there that are supposed to make an impact this year and the Allison kid scored about 40 in one game. Coble was hitting 3's from 12' behind the arc and dunked in traffic a few times. I will say they all looked lost outside of Loyd's system and playing on a team with other kids. I don't see them winning it all but they have as much or more talent than they did two years ago.

I went to the Regional and that Pea Ridge team was legit. They lost their All State Post Player in the First round of Regional's and still went all the way to the finals of State and gave Baptist Prep all they wanted. As a matter of fact, they also had one of their best players who didn't play half the year and tore his ACL the summer before. Not sure how anyone could throw shade at that group of kids.
No doubt several teams have the talent to be State Runner ups....

You folks are crazy to think anyone will challenge Mills this year. Dumas and Baptist would be the only teams and they moved down to 3A so that eliminates them

Mills and Morrilton will not meet in region. Morriiton in the North and Mills in the East.

He is a baller...was raised on the court. Has the height could use a little weight, makes good decisions and has as natural a shot as you will find. I have seen him let frustration get the better of him but a little more experience and that will correct its self. Once he finds his stroke he can flat drop some points...Fun to watch!!!

Estem, Joe t robinson are playing in the battle at the ridge tournament in December. Should be good tournament
ESTEM and Mills both return a lot of talent this year. Madison Peaster is the best player in 4a and Kevin Cross is probably the second best with Branton Mccrary in the top 5. ESTEM's best players are Jacob Profit and Jacob Saunders who are both top players in 4a as well.
I dont know too much about Robinson this year.
Just for information only. How does one know who the best player is unless they have seen all players in a class or conference? There are other good players who are arguably a contender for the "best" in a conference or class.
And it takes more than one "best" if a team has 2-3 good players.

True I understand your point but those guys at Mills have been highly recruited prospects and I havent heard about other players yet
I think that the overwhelming consensus is that Mills will be in the finals of the state tournament...who will be the other team?
I've heard and seen that Mills will be very good this year but I saw they started 1-3. I know nothing about the teams they've played so far but is this a sign for concern?

If so, Cooper has them playing out of state competition are is swimming in the 6A pool! I assume they will be just fine!

You're making some bold statements here. I don't know that I agree with any of them.
