33rd Annual Rick Bolus’ High Potential® "Blue-Chip" Basketball Camp® 2012

Session One

June 24-28, 2012
Georgetown, KY

©2012 by Ron Harrison

Introduction

The 33rd Annual Rick Bolus’ High Potential® "Blue-Chip" Basketball Camp® was held in Georgetown, Kentucky at Georgetown College.

The camp director for this camp is Rick Bolus, who is entering his 40th season as a basketball scout and his 33rd year as an exposure basketball camp director.  Rick Bolus started the Rick Bolus High Potential® Basketball Recruiting Service in 1973.  He is also a consultant for several national basketball tournaments, shootouts, and All-Star games.  Numerous colleges representing all levels of play subscribe to his High Potential® Basketball Recruiting Service.

There are two sessions this year:  June 24-28 and July 15-19.  Both sessions include a Junior division.  This report will cover the first session, held June 24-28.  Each session also features speakers on recruitment and academics.  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.

Some of the outstanding players who have attended Rick Bolus’ camps include Rex Chapman, Tim Couch, Richie Farmer, Travis Ford, Pat Graham, Darren Hancock, Allen Houston, Jack Ingram, Jimmy Jackson, Dan Langhi, Derek Lowe, A. J. Moye, Brad Miller, Larry O’Bannon, Jared Odle, Scott Padgett, John Pelphrey, Felton Spencer, Scott Sutton, Sean Sutton, Dejuan Wheat, and Albert WhiteNorris Cole also attended this camp and was a first round pick in the 2011 NBA draft.

Each Senior division player 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 intramural complex.  All players receive equal playing time as substitutions are done by the clock.  All teams in both junior and senior divisions will compete in a single elimination tournament. Certified trainers are on duty at all times.

The Rick Bolus' High Potential® “Blue-Chip” Basketball Camp® is not affiliated with any other basketball camp using the names “High Potential;” or “Blue-Chip”.

Senior Division Summary
There were several talented performers in this division with several players making good impressions. The Camp MVP was 6-7 Sr. Xavion Dillon (Tylertown, MS) and the Camp Runner-Up MVP was 6-3 Sr. Jalen Peake (West Valley Yakima,WA).  6-7 Jr. Justin Johnson (Sheldon Clark Inez, KY) was named Top Underclassman and won the slam dunk contest. 5-11 Jr. Jeff Larkin (LaSalle Cincinnati,OH) is an excellent point guard with a lot of potential.  6-6 Soph. Dikembe Dixson (Paul Blazer Ashland, KY) was named Top All-Star Game MVP. There were also several “diamonds in the rough” who could explode on the scene this season.

 

Several players performed well at this camp at all grade levels with several likely to receive college scholarships.  I was impressed with the efforts expended by the players regardless of the score or their team record.

Conclusion

This was my fourteenth year attending the camp and I continue to be impressed with the involvement and work ethics of the camp director.  He has a very “hands-on” approach and observes 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 director.  He makes everyone feel welcome and provides 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.
