Georgetown, KY
©2005 by Ron Harrison
The 26th Annual Cage Scope/High Potential "Blue-Chip" Basketball Camp was held in Georgetown, Kentucky at Georgetown College.
The camp directors for this camp are Dave Bones (Cage Scope) and Rick Bolus (High Potential). These two gentlemen have a total of 80 years experience in the business between them. Dave Bones introduced Cage Scope to the world in 1957. Mr. Bones has been a contributor to many periodicals as well as being featured in innumerable newspapers and magazines. Rick Bolus started the Rick Bolus High Potential Basketball Recruiting Service in 1973. Mr. Bolus is a consultant for several national basketball tournaments and shootouts and several of the top college programs in the country are among his subscribers. Many scouting/recruiting services have entered and left the business over the past few years. These gentlemen definitely withstood the test of time.
There are three sessions this year: June 26-30, July 10-14, and July 24-28. The first session includes a Junior division. This report will cover the second session, held July 10-14. Each session also features speakers on recruitment, academics, and basketball. Some of the outstanding players who have attended this camp include Jimmy Jackson, Allen Houston, Rex Chapman, Felton Spencer, Dan Langhi, Darren Hancock, Scott Padgett, Brad Miller, Tim Couch, Derek Lowe, Jared Odle, and Dejuan Wheat. All players also receive mini-clinics. There are mini-clinics for guards, big men, and 3-point shooters. There are also optional competition contests as well as a written evaluation from the camper’s league coach.
Each Senior division player also plays a minimum of nine league games (not counting playoff games and All-Star contest). All games are played full-court in Alumni Gym and the newly built intramural complex. All players receive equal playing time as substitutions are done by the clock. All teams will compete in a single elimination tournament. Certified trainers are on duty at all times.
The Cage Scope/High Potential
“Blue-Chip” Basketball Camp is not affiliated with any other basketball
camp using the name “Blue-Chip”.
Players from nineteen states, South Korea, Ontario, and the Netherlands Antilles are scheduled to attend this session.

Senior Division Summary
There was an impressive array of talent on display at this session with several players making good impressions this week. 6-6 Sr. Tyree Glass from the Ft. Wayne, IN was named Camp MVP and possesses the entire package. 6-5 Sr. Michael Patton (Gary West Side IN) was named Camp Runner-Up MVP and 6-3 Jr. Rodney Haddix (Georgetown Scott Co. KY) was named Best Underclassman.
The award winners and All-Stars were very deserving of their honors, but there were several other players who also had excellent camps. There are too many to mention them all here, but some I noted include 6-3 Sr. Cory Britt (Harrison Co. KY), an excellent athlete who takes the ball to the basket, 6-9 So. Taylor Young (Cleveland VASJ OH) is raw at this stage but has great size and a lot of potential. 5-11 Sr. Ryan Johnson (South Floyd, KY) is an excellent shooter and penetrator. 6-2 Jr. Trae Cunningham (Lexington Sayre KY) has a nice three point stroke and is steadily improving in other phases of the game. 6-0 Sr. Jesse Thompson (Georgetown Scott Co. KY) played well this week and is a solid lead guard who understands the game. 6-2 Jr. Nathan Edmondson (Covington Holmes KY) is an active shooter with the ability to get to the rim.
This was my seventh year attending the camp and I continue
to be impressed with the involvement and work ethics of the camp
directors. They have a very “hands-on” approach and observe
each player’s performance at least once daily. While talent levels
may vary slightly from camp to camp, the players have ample opportunity to
display their abilities, and there are always some previously undiscovered
gems.
The strengths of this camp should start with the aforementioned work ethics of the camp directors. The camp directors make everyone welcome and provide the official camp programs, all-star game rosters, and the list of award winners. Another, and I believe, very important, strength of this camp is the presence of certified trainers. Injures are evaluated and treated immediately with doctors being on call at all times. This camp also has a tremendous up-side for players who have either not had the exposure or are late bloomers.
