WPIAL Committee should be fired for their decisions in 5A boys hoops. Very unfair for some teams. Peters beat NOBODY!!

Again, why the hate on Peters?

No way Peters is #1 in 5A. Watch out for FC, best coached team in 5A.

Watch out for a number of teams in 5A. I think 5A and 4A are unquestionably the best classes, in terms of depth of quality teams.

Clearly you're wrong Mike. Saying multiple times that Peters is good enough to win 5A isn't enough. You must immediately crown them champions and tell all readers they are the greatest team in WPIAL history.

what do you think about Bishop Canevin with Champine leading the way. I’ve seen them play he’s tough. He’s has been playing  with a fractured wrist and still put up numbers. Do you think they will make it to the championship

Champine is one of the best stories in WPIAL this year. Was hurt a lot of last year and came off the bench. Now he's one of best players in WPIAL. If you make me predict, I would say Bishop Canevin makes it to final game, but Fort Cherry is an intriguing team.

Best current or former coach that owns a bar/restaurant?

Hey Brian, are you Johnny Lee? C'mon, man.

How does Shaler get a 9 seed after finishing second in that section?   How does Woody High get a lower seed than Fox Chapel when they just beat them?  The inconsistency is incredible
Mike White

Good questions.

Mike, what are your thoughts on some of these high school teams that have nearly as many coaches as they do players? Caught a few seat and games this year and they've literally had six coaches sitting on the sideline. And they only had nine players dressed. And it looked chaotic as it seemed there were multiple people running substitutions, and the head coach wasn't one of them. Caught a bishop can ofan game where Tim only uses two assistants and they basically sat there and said nothing the entire game. Tim ran also substitutions, etc. Thoughts on the different coaching styles?

It's the way basketball is nowadays at many places, right? I think it's somewhat of a trickle-down effect from pro and college. Look at the benches in NBA and college. And then there's a timeout, there's sometimes a meeting of a horde of individuals.

OK that's about it for today. It's a great time of the year. Personally, my favorite time. Go see a game in these next few weeks. You might like it. Everyone, be good.
