Love the boundary schools vs non boundary discussion - who is in the non boundary group? Hope they are including reading and wilson in that discussion...plenty of kids not living in those districts playing sports

Mr Evans

12:54

If you move catholic schools out wouldn't you just encourage more kids to jump ship. I have a feeling that will happen making matters worse

Mike Drago

12:54

The difference, Mr. E, is that the public and private schools would be playing for different championships

Thanks again Mike for putting this chat together, it’s nice to have a format to discuss all sorts of basketball topics with you and other fans from around the county, keep up the work we love it!

Why is Boyertown in the top 10 in basketball rankings and all the basketball stats when they’re not in Berks county or the BCIAA?

Mike Drago

12:56

Boyertown school district is in Berks; check out the map on BCIAA websie

They should us your rankings for berks playoffs

Mike Drago

12:56

No, that would make too much sense

I saw your top Sophomores rankings. Stevie Mitchell has the biggest potential, in my opinion, to be unanimously the best Berks player in 2 years.

Mike Drago

12:57

How about next year?

Mr Evans

12:57

My point is they still lose kids. Playoff games for public schools could be like watching paint dry

Mike Drago

12:57

You're right. But the current system is broken.

Buffa Dees

12:57

If I were BC I would just go independent play NJ and MD teams and draw the best talent around by challenging them with a semi national schedule

Why are there no Muhlenberg players on top of their class? You mean to tell me you do not see any talent coming up for the muhls

Mike Drago

12:59

Check again. There are three Muhlenberg players listed.

I know Lorenz is a good shooter and across a lot of points, but who do you think is the better all around hoops player--- Lorenz or John Harrison.

Mike Drago

12:59

Lorencz

I'm thinking that's not the answer you wanted to hear, is it?

I'm with Ice! Kudos, Mike!

Thanks, Coach

They make it work in New Jersey with public and private schools. Pa can do the same.

Mike Drago

1:01

That's what I'd like to see. Separate tournaments. Then a tournament of champions.

What is the most intriguing quarterfinal matchup on Monday? Any upsets?

Mike Drago

1:01

Wilson vs Muhlenberg, because of the potential injury situation with Wilson's Evin Timochenko

Coach

1:02

john harrison or jaden green? mike?

Mike Drago

1:02

You'll find both of them here: https://www.readingeagle.com/sports/article/top-of-class-in-high-schoo...

The PIAA does not want to fund or fight the impending lawsuits that would incur.

Mike Drago

1:02

They have always claimed they can't afford a lawsuit

1:03

And PIAA is scared to death of the Catholic schools lobby

Buffa Dees

1:03

Why aren’t the bigger schools in county complaining about boundary non boundary and BCS

Mike Drago

1:04

How do you know they're not? Wilson school board passed a resolution in the fall, backing the Equity Summit people

Wilson board wants separate state tournaments

Buffa Dees

1:04

Mifflin, Wilson don’t seem to care.

Mike Drago

1:04

Don't agree with you, Dees

Wilson cares

1:05

Wilson lost some pretty good football talent to BC; two former Wilson players made All-State with Saints

First T of the day on . . . Raining 3's

He's a Lonnie hater. I'll have none of that

Buffa Dees

Schools with stable programs don’t seem to lose many kids to BC
