Pfloyd's Elite 8 of Southern/SouthEast Ohio Week #10

[Prime Time]

Very true TrojanDave, but Waterford will probably get to the final 4. Clay might make it to regionals. 50/50 in my eyes. Rise from the ashes and reborn, now how cute is that. Lol Athens will be the surprise.

PrimeTime: One thing that I think is true with the tournament every single year.......someone, a favorite, a lock, will get upset at some point in whatever division, while at the same time a decided underdog will advance farther than anybody thought possible. It's what makes the tournament one of the greatest events of the sports year. Look at last year when Western lost 12 games in the regular season but played their way to the regionals.

[Prime Time]

Very true TrojanDave, very true. good luck to your Trojans, and Coach Collins is one of the best

For sure, some people have delusions of grandeur, only to find out that crow doesn't taste good.beware crowning state champs too early.

... I always thought the Elite 8 thread was immune from the childish insults ... I always thought that it drew the best of the best posters who every week bring great insight to Southern/Southeastern Ohio high school hoops ... the players, teams, coaches ALL deserve the best we have in our comments, and support ... I don't even want to add a comment on MY OWN thread that is a part of some of this "stuff" ...

... I know that most posters don't feel that the rankings are "worth" much hence some of the comments posters have made ie." we all take the rankings for what they are ..." ... I DO take them seriously, I DO try to make them as accurate as I can - the TEAMS, the players, the coaches DESERVE that imo ... so the comments of " take them for what they are ..." gets under my skin somewhat but - it implies I don't know what I'm talking about, that I just pick teams out at random ... In my mind I am pretty "darn" close on where every single one of the teams in the SouthEast District actually should be ... there is always the "once in a blue moon" game that the decided underdog plays - THAT'S GREAT STUFF imo ... the once in a blue moon game doesn't move a team 20+ spots or drops a team 20+ spots (unless the team is the Portsmouth Trojans right biggdowgg or trojandave ! LOL - that was an inside joke among friends by the way) ...

... disagree with each other - not a problem ... support your team to the hilt - not a problem ... make claims about your team that can't be supported - not a problem ... turn the thread into a BS thread - then I have a problem ... take it to the "OFF topic" thread and plunder each other all you want ... turn what has been a good thread about hoops you lose all respect from many of us "old timers" ...

Southern still has three games left, St. Joe, Eastern, Waterford.

They are (10-9) right now.

This guy fighting with his Clay wife since Pfloyd took her side.i believe there are teams ahead of ours that we could defeat but take list for what it is. Thanks for your time each week.

Pfloyd nothing meant negative by this if taken that way. Was disappointed in the sudden bashing of our panthers by one. Appreciate your knowledge and respect your list.Look forward each week for the list and where our panthers or little black kitties land. Our panthers started down with injuries and sickness but hung in there to get a chance at the SOC 1 title. Very proud of the team and hope good things continue for them. Best to you.

Portsmouth Clay is an OUTSTANDING basketball team they have shown that on the court for the last 2 seasons for sure ... their schedule for a Southeast District small school division team is excellent when you look at the caliber of this seasons SOC1 competition - Portsmouth East, Eastern Pike , Western Pike, Notre Dame, South Webster ...

Sorry for the post running together still learning

[Fanatic]

Should learn how well Waterford handles pressure, and twin bigs when Warren comes calling Saturday.

I know they had some kids become eligible recently. How many new players were there?

This has truly become the floor of Congress. I see posted comments here saying one thing and texts to me from other people saying the exact opposite.

It doesn't matter a hill of beans where pfloyd puts Portsmouth or Clay in his poll. All I know is that I no longer live in Scioto County....and for good reason - we left to provide a better educational value for my son.....a place where he already has, as a Junior in high school, almost a full year of college under his belt and college deans already contacting him more than college coaches.

So for me, none of this really matters what happens on the floor of the debate of pfloyd's poll or how the rest of the SE District perceives the Portsmouth Trojans when the refs want to screw them in the Sectional Tournament game in 2016 by pursuing technical fouls from the players......to reiterate from Waverly, once again, you suck! That's all right. I was leaving anyway!

Southern is 9-9 with 4 to play. Sorry
