Did the near geographic perfection of these 3 team groupings happen on purpose, or did it just happen to work out that way?

Look nobody said Sandusky was going to win this game however if it were to happen it wouldn’t be like Margaretta beating Willard for instance. I would still take Sandusky plus 20 all day looking at this bracket... Rossford vs Oak harbor winner likely to face Sandusky... im going with rossford / rogers DF Rossford loses to an average to below average Genoa team tonight. Looks like an all SBC district semi... OH-Sandusky

Wouldn’t surprise me if Sandusky beats Rogers (reg season) not sure why they are ranked #2. Either District this one or Mansfield will have an uphill battle to beat Shawnee who beat Lima, OG and Findlay recently. Are you serious? Lol. Rogers will beat Sandusky by 20 Portwalk called it early

Are you serious? Lol. Rogers will beat Sandusky by 20 Portwalk called it early The Norwalk loss was a blessing to this team. I’ve seen more hustle and focus in the last two games than pretty much all season up to this point. Great man defense, crashing the glass, and no longer settling for 3’s and instead taking what the defense is giving them.

Stop it you basing one game off whether a kid can go d1 Tahj is high major.. his body of work speak for that he averaging 27 6 and 5.. Has his team 19-1 and currently he is playing not at 100 percent that ankle injury he suffered against Norwalk still hasn't healed he probably shouldn't even be playing the last 8 games he has been playing at about 60 percent.. His expolsion off the dribble is not there due too his ankle still not fully being healed.. And he way better that Nick dials and Jimmy langhurts.. First off I played against both Nick dials was not point guard and Jimmy langhurst was nowhere near the athlete off the bounce as tahj.. Nick dials couldn't create his own shot he had too play off the ball too score.. Jimmy could create for his self more than dials but could not finish at the rim against athletic players.. Nick dials and Jimmy were both great players for areas not diminishing or hating that's why I don't like too get into comparing players.. But if we being honest just evaluating there games Tahj has more in his Arsenal than both of them.. Again I believe Tahj is is the level of Xavier Simpson I watched X play in high school crafty players not good shooter.. nice burst and quickness good handle similar size is tahj.. When Tahj is healthy at peak level.. He has shown me he is the best guard in state

Naw @bighoss I'm just speaking facts you and others don't want too hear and acknowledge.. Keep down playing and hating the facts speak for itself.. Again your titled too your own opinion but your not stating nothing factual concerning the kid all I can keep reiterating let everything with Tahj career play out let's just keep enjoying the show and when time come this year or next year we will see

Those that continually espouse hating on others are THE TRUE haters. As well as lacking consequential intellect.

Sandusky pushed the lead to 16 without him in. I'm not hating but tajh is a tweener between ,d1and d2. Had d1 scout beside me and he said same thing. He's not jimkmy or nick.enough said He's also a "tweener" when it comes to his play, which is problematic. A very good player, but he's a shooting guard in a small PG body.

Out of curiosity. d1 point guards are extremely quick. You don't realize it by watching it on TV but these kids playing top level d1 are a blur.if tahj is hurt the I can see why he didn't look cat quick last night but yes his physical size hurts him some but quickness can overcome size at times and if you want him to play 2 guard in college then he's way undersized at that position. Kids are usually 6'3 and above who play that spot.point guard is the only spot I'm seeing him play and unless he's quicker and faster than I seen last night the he's between d1andd2 doesn't mean he's a slouch at all. He's got game but it's not high level but good.it's just rywiill makes out to be Jay burson and yes Jimmy was better. Jimmy Had a way better shot from three and better handles.nice win and Scott played really well last night for you guys. Kids not very big but he plays big. His dad is one hell of a nice guy.good luck rest of year.

His dad is one hell of a nice guy.good luck rest of year. I wasn’t asking about his size or quicks. I was asking Willard why he felt he was a tweener positionally. And yes, Tahj is not 100%. Hrs got very good quickness and agility when he’s healthy. The ankle is still bothering him but he’s good enough to play. You’re basing his shooting off a game against Rogers last night? He played well. Didn’t force anything. He got to the paint at will and displayed terrific vision with his passing ability. I’ve seen Tahj get extremely hot from 3 and I’m talking 32’. Draining them as if they were lay ups. I’ve seen Jimmy play as well and he was a very good HS player, but some of you guys extremely overrate Nick and Jimmy. I’ll just leave it at that because I don’t really care to debate hypotheticals.

I don't think there's anyone on here who doesn't want him to succeed. I've always thought he was an entertaining scorer during his high school career. He just keeps getting better each year. It's hard to find a player in the area who you actually want to go see play - even if it's just because of the hype from this site! I don't think it's overrating players who score 2K points in their careers and their teams are successful. I believe Dials also had over 500 career assists also. That's impressive. Anyhow, a lot of good D2 teams to face in the tourney and hopefully they can continue to win.

I was at Rogers game honestly I don't think Tahj played all that well last night missed some makeable shots.. Had some bad decision making plays down the stretch that was head scratching.. But again you can't base a kids projection off one game also with Tahj not being 100 percent I can't fully evaluate his performance based off of that.. From the season up into the injury he has shown me explosivness and quick burst off the dribble.. Again it's context and variables too a player not just one game his body of work from summer fall and season he has shown me he is an elite player.. Known basketball minds not just in the area but who have seen tahj play on multiple occasions not just the duration of the season but people who have seen him play aau tournaments and in fall league have seen a high major guard.. Yes if you just came too one game an seen a kid play you may have walked away unimpressed about the Rogers game but you don't recruit a kid off one game you look into a kid for month's or even years.. So for some of you too say after his performance he is not d1 is I can't take your basketball perspective serious.. You can state you were unimpressed with his performance but his body of work just from the season has shown he has been putting in work this year.. And I'm not with comparing players because that's slighting other players but if we are accurately and objectively breaking players down I can't say Jimmy langhurst and Nick dials were better than Tahj it's not an accurate comparison in my eyes again both great players for the area but it's levels and I played against both I think Tahj operates on a higher level than both.. I believe Tahj could guard Jimmy langhurst and Nick dials I don't think either one of them could guard Tahj without sending 2 defenders for the double and running an box 1.. Tahj maybe one of the only guards I witnessed around the state that faces box 1 triple teams or gets faced guarded every game.. Even times against Rogers they faced guarded him and sent doubles at him.. I played against both Nick dials and Jimmy we didn't have too double or box and 1 either of them.. Again much respect too both.. they both had great careers and great players and not taking anything away from both or down playing them just stating facts

He's also a "tweener" when it comes to his play, which is problematic. A very good player, but he's a shooting guard in a small PG body. Why do you say this? Out of curiosity. Don't forget, Tahj and those who have his ear are demanding/pushing for him to play HIGH DI, not just DI. No doubt Tahj can score, but when DI coaches see him play, they don't see a PG. They don't see a player doing what they want their PGs to do. When they watch, they don't see him passing three times as much as he shoots. They don't see a player that drives in hopes of 90% of the time looking to dish to a wing. They don't see him running an offense. Even at that, they want a bigger stronger PG. They wish he was 6-5 so he could play a wing guard and be one of their main scorers. Not even at DII do you see 6-0 off guards. Sure, if a low DI REALLY liked him...MAYBE he could be a project for them and turn him into a smallish PG. High DI programs aren't looking for "projects" unless they're at least 6-10. 6-10 is MUCH MUCH rarer than 6-0. If he was my kid, from the first day he was a Freshman in high school, my goal would have been to do all I could to help him land a scholarship at TU/Akron/Kent State, to get his education 100% paid for and close bye so I could easily drive to and watch him play. Trying to get him a scholarship at Ohio State, MSU or U of M would have been a waste of the family's time and resources. As we were all too short of stature.

Having said that, they both think he could help some teams at the lower level (MAC or Horizon)not immediately but with some development. Again time will tell where he lands but let’s hope Oakland continues to follow him and sees that he might be able to help there team. I would love to see him play in Auburn Hills

College coaches get fired everyday.. The same college coaches thought Steph curry was too small not quick enough too play high major ball.. same coaches who said dame lillard was not good enough and ended up at Weber state.. same coaches who didn't recruit cj McCollum out of high school and he had too go to Leigh when he showed at canton glenoak he should be going too Ohio State.. if Tahj was ranked the number one point guard in state and was not hurt after his junior year and was getting all this buzz state wide he would have all big ten schools on him.. College coaches want too play it safe and not properly evaluate kids.. Sincere Carry was signed up for a d2.. he had too have a monster senior season and now he is at Duquesne a A10 school starting playing well.. So you mean too tell me sincere got better in one year too that extent no.. He was not evaluated properly by scouts and and college coaches missed on the kid.. Ja morant couldn't play in a high major conference no he didn't get properly evaluated and coaches missed on him.. This happens all the time again if you are not playing on shoe circuit you are not getting national exposure and seen by all the top schools facts.. It's Nba scouts that said Trae young was gonna flop in NBA he was too small not quick enough.. In no way am I'm comparing Tahj too trae young or anybody I just mentioned my point scouts and coaches are wrong too with there evaluations.. I have played the game at high levels I am currently in touch with the game at the highest levels study the game at the highest levels.. I all the college basketball I watch guard play dominates the game and if you can do certain things well you can play on that level.. From what I have seen from Tahj he checks the boxes.. The only major concern with Tahj in my opinion is his weight.. He needs too add about 10 more pounds too his frame over the next 2 years.. That is not big deal because that can happen with a good weight program and nutritionist he will gain weight when he goes too a university and gets on a real weight training eating program.. Besides that if keeps working hard on his game from what I know he is a gym rat and keeps adding things too his game he will be okay... For his age he has shown me he is the most skilled senior guard in Ohio

Sure coaches miss guys, happens all the time. Add Kendrick Nunn to your list. Undrafted out of Oakland (go figure) and makes the rising stars game in the NBA. The problem is right now RWILL has created extraordinary expectations for Tahj and frankly those aren't fair to him. Will he get a D1 offer - I hope so as I do believe most on here hope for it also. RWILL not beimng fair to the other guards in Ohio by proclaiming him the most skilled guard in Ohio. I have no doubt that RWILL knows a few things about basketball but like I said his knowledge doesn't compare to that of most D-1 college coaches in and around Ohio. Lets let the chips fall where they may, wish Tahj and his team good luck on the tournament trail and hopefully a offer he likes comes his way soon. Come on Oakland!!

First off I'm more than knowlegeable than some college coaches I don't profess too know everything about the game of basketball but many of you hate too see someone be outspoken and not collaborating with most on opinions.. the truth and facts hurt too some of you.. And the only weird one Willard Fillmore who trolls and never post anything pertaining too the game of basketball you the weird one.. @maplecityjack not worth responding stick too basketball you way off base with what your claiming doesn't even make sense too the post.. 94hoops not putting pressure or expectations on Tahj I don't speak for Tahj I evaluate players and can have an opinion that is putting pressure on a kid because o have and opinion on a kid giving him props.. You guys don't even make sense with what your proclaiming.. It's funny we go from he is no a d1 recruit too now c'mon Oakland miss me with this silliness.. Now you guys are believers bc he may get an offer from Oakland now his expectations should be settle for a mid major.. It's entertaining for me too come on here and respond too the silliness that comes from some of you.. A month ago Tahj was a d2 player.. Again I'm not taking back anything I said regardless what the kid does my evaluations on the kid he has shown me high major ability and I stand by that.. And you mention Kendrick Nunn from Oakland but tell the complete story he was not under recruited he played at simeon with jabari Parker was ranked a top 50 player in his class he went too Illinois out of high school was there for 3 years got into some trouble and had too transfer out too Oakland he did not go straight too Oakland from high school.. Everybody around the nation knew about Kendrick Nunn.. He didn't get drafted and had too work his way too the league but we are not talking about getting shunned from NBA the topic of this conversation is college coaches don't properly evaluate kids and kids get under recruited every year.. But I wish the best for Tahj and hope the Oakland offer along with many more offers come his way.. The kid works hard too my knowledge and more deserving for all good things too come his way
