Re: 2016-2017 Kentucky Wesleyan basketball thread.

I get that, and I agree to a point, though at our level when you have opportunity for a good one year player in a critical position you have to take it. My favorite players have always been the guys that come in as freshmen and we get to watch them develop for 4 years. Ken-Jah, Chris Williams, Gino Bartolone, Patrick Critchelow, Anwar Perry, even Jay Ivey since he transferred in mid freshman year, for a few.

I wish all the players would be 4 year guys. Don't mind transfers if they are at least 2 years.

What about Adam Mattingly or Will McDonald.

Or even Rush Witt.

I really like Adam Mattingly. He never picked up a basketball again after his days at Wesleyan. That State Championship team from Breckenridge County in 1995 is one of the greatest stories in KHSAA basketball history. Critchelow and Mattingly were both on that team. Adam and Patrick were about as successful as you could get on a true amateur level.

I go with Willis Cheaney as my favorite 4 year player. He was the best small guard we ever had at KWC in my years of watching. His senior year he was the best player in the conference, maybe the nation.

The main reason Ray was able to win a National Championship with Patrick and Adam was their infectious ambition to get it right, and you do that in practice. Leadership is maturity.

Larenzo Conner was great....just don't think he was on the title team.

You're right, Zo was on the 98 team that played for the title, but not the 99 team that won it.

He wasn't. Year after he left KWC won it.

Speaking of 4 year players, Ken-Jah Bosley's name is going to be showing up all over the KWC record books when he leaves.

With just under half of his senior season to go, he currently stacks up like this:

Games Started - 98 (tied 7th)
Minutes Played - 3230 (5th)
Field Goals - 553 (9th)
Field Goals Attempted - 1189 (10th)
3 Pointers - 195 (4th)
3's Attempted - 503 (4th)
3 Point % - 38.8% (tied 10th)
Free Throws - 534 (2nd)
FT Attempted - 632 (4th)
FT % - 84.5% (2nd)
Points Scored - 1835 (6th)

Seems to me that next years team is set. To be as good as this years some guys will have to step up their game but new additions are solid.

Re: 2016-2017 Kentucky Wesleyan basketball thread.

Bingo, my point

Re: 2016-2017 Kentucky Wesleyan basketball thread.

We will have to agree to disagree. I love watching Foster to play, but next year there will be a new point guard the returning players have to get use to. I am glad the transfer will have 2 years
