Good Call, was looking ahead. I think Sullivan wins but I do think it will be close tonight. North should blow out Marshall. If it happens tommorrow it will be a big time showcase game for both Gant and Smith

Agreed. I think Hauser, West, Thornton, and Crowther could cause problems for Sullivan. I should say I feel WV may pull upset but Sullivan may pound them. We just haven't seen an upset yet and I think this is the best chance.
Also, Casey just beat Linton in 2 ot, 91-87.
Well I almost had it. Sullivan won in OT. North destroyed Marshall by 30+ and north looks 15-20 pts. better than Sullivan if u ask me.

Gant scored his 1,000th point tonight against Marshall. Should be a good one against Sullivan tomorrow night.

We were so close to beating Sullivan. We were up by 3 with 12 seconds left, and we fould Smith on a layup. And then we lost Scotty West in this game also. He suffered a deep thigh bruise that kept him out of our Marshall game.
Gant didn't do much last night, as he was in foul trouble.

Yes you were. I couldn't tell if it was tipped or not, but Smith should have been called for traveling on that 3 point play. He caught his own shot and it hadn't hit rim.
Gant is dealing with being double teamed and needs to adjust to it and the physical play that teams are throwing at him. He needs to bulk up, get tougher, and work on his post game. He spins left into double teams and tries to square up. He needs to half spin and shoot a jump hook.

23 points, 16 boards last night. North is now 11-1 and ranked 9th in the state.

Conrats to Mr. Gant and continued success in his teams run through the state tournament. Indiana State adds to its list another quality recruit!!!

Been told that Justin was nominated as a McDonald's All-American. Congrats to Justin and family on the nomination!
I saw Mr. Gant play against Warren Central last night. He had a very nice game. 2-3 blocks, 2 dunks, guessing about 18 pts. One 3fg and the rest he drove or moved inside for the bucket. Missed very few. Nice touch. He's going to look good in blue.
Warren had a 6'8" and a coupe of 6'6", one of which is comitted to IU. WC won by 3. It was basically Gant against WC. I was not impressed with the THN team, but I don't see many HS games.
(I guess he had 25 pts)

From the looks of it, North didn't play very well last night. Apparently their bus was late, and the flu went through them this week and one starter missed the game due to the flu
Too bad. That was a game they could have won. WC's a pretty athletic team. Greg Graham is coaching there and they play good ball.

Nice to see Gant have a good game against a quality team. Looking forward to se if he plays the 3 or 4 next year.
You have a long wait. No way is he a 3 and no way he plays 3 for us.
And he may not play much next year.
Why do you think He won't play next year?

Walker and Richard are starting at 4-5. He has KD with 3 yrs exp, RJ with 2 yrs exp and Kitchell 1 yr of exp ahead of him. I don't see where the minutes would come from. His natural position is 4 and we will have depth with experience there.
He's not going to be a better 3 than Lathan, or maybe KD or Smith or Printy.
This is just my opinion.
Dude but I'd play with this lineup for 3 years.
PG Odum
SG Steve
SF RJ
PF Gant
C Kitchell
Then you add K. Smith to the mix and R. Smith - watch out! I mean seriously watch out!

A lot of talent. I'm going to say, though, that RJ's foot speed will keep him at 4-5. I think Smith or another shooting recruit will be at the 3.
Do you think KD can start at 3 is SR year?
Yeah possibly - I mean he plays a 3-4 combo now as it is. I would say that the expectation is that he will start at the 3 by his SR. year, you would hope that to be the case.
Do you worry that his development is similar to that of one Isiah Martin? I guess Koang never got the hype that Martin got, expectations were very high for Martin and not that he has played bad. He has been a fantastic rebounder and shot blocker his entire career.
The big thing with Koang for me is his ball handling. You got to handle it a little bit to play the 3, especially big minutes. He doesn't handle the ball very well - travels frequently and he is not that strong of passer. I think Koang could be a pretty big scorer for us, we are going to need someone to be a scorer for us in the next couple of years and he could be that guy.
