can mc minn central win it all?

[logcabinman]

Both Polk and Central are good teams, no doubt about that. To say they have a chance to go all the way is pushing it. I have seen both teams play, Polk is great unless they have to play the baby blue. Central is great when their top shooters are hot. Centrals defence is amazing, but all it takes is one team that can beat that great press they have and cause the baby blue to make some mistakes and their run is done. The #1 question will they meet a team that can do that? Good luck to both teams!! /popcorneater.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":popcorneater:" border="0" alt="popcorneater.gif" />

 

 

To say it would be pushing it for the Chargerettes go all the way is still something I do not understand. I do understand that the games have to be played, but with senior leadership on their side they will reach down a little more this year. Should have won the semi-last year, and girl from Marshall made a huge shot at the end of the game. EXPERIENCE counts for a lot.

Being outshot by almost 20 at the free throw line didn't help us any last year against Marshall County. Anything can happen from the substate on. Hume-Fogg took down Marshall County tonight, and I'd bet very few people saw that coming. One game at a time....

McMinn Central has had several talented teams over the last decade and has yet to win a State Championship. What makes this year any different? In my opinion, their coach is not good enough to win it. He has won his games over the years by having more talent. He can't beat the good teams at the state tournament

 

wow another idiot to come in and write something stupid to mess a good thread up

Outshot at the free throw line?? Sounds familiar. Did you happen to catch the boys game Saturday? 37-7 advantage Chattanooga Christian /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" /> but back on subject... I think the girls have a good chance IF they keep there heads on straight and dont get too cocky as ive heard a few of them talking already...

[raider2]

Wow!!! You might want to check his carrer record. Not good enough, bull. They have played some great teams close is state tournaments - he might get his this year. If not still a great coach, and good man.

 

 

I didn't say he was not a good coach...I said "he wasn't good enough" Playing some great teams CLOSE in the state tournament is exactly my point- Getting close doesn't count! His track record over the years has them losing in the sub-state or state tournament to equal or better teams. I just don't think he is a good enough coach to beat equal or better teams when it counts. I also think they've had enough talent over the years to win a State Championship at the AA level. Personally, I think the weak schedule they play year in and year out hurts them come March. What good holiday tournaments have they played in to get them ready for the state tournament? Lenoir City Classic, Times Freepress...those are really tough! What makes this team and coach any different? Not bashing just putting out the some facts.

loyalcharger,

 

"Idiot" "Write something stupid" Wow, I didn't realize that giving my opinion on why I think McMinn Central will not will the state championship makes me an idiot. Maybe I should think the same about you for thinking they will win it? I realize you are a "loyalcharger" but lets think clearly here.

 

Let me say it again "McMinn Central has had several teams over the years that were talented enough to win a AA state championship, but the fact of the matter is they have not won one yet" Why should I think this year will be any different? If you can give me some concrete facts or evidence that proves this statement to be wrong then let me hear it. Otherwise, stop the name calling because sometimes the TRUTH hurts! /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

My problem is not your opinion, but to say Morgan is not a good coach is crazy. They have had opportunities to win games, but missed a shot or something. I have also seen Chargerettes in the past upset teams that they should not have beaten. It is very hard to go to a state tournament, and they have been their year after year. I hope he does win it to take the monkey off his back.

Sorry, did not see this post. I don't know how scheduling works, but I am sure that it is sometimes hard to get in to some these tournaments. I agree the better teams you play the better you get, so I will agree with this statement. Coaches may not be the best, but as long as they are the best they can be I am fine.

First of all, Central and Polk cannot even be compared on the same level simply because of the fact that the Chargerettes have wore them out on a consistent basis all year long... 3 times and make it 4 after Wednesday night! Central has a great chance for a run to the state title this year, but poor ole Polk... they should just feel lucky to make it as far as they have. I would hate to be a Polk fan and have to take the beating they are going to recieve from Upperman in the Sub-State game!

[92charger]

Whomever either team plays in the sub-state, they need to be ready. Livingston Academy has played the toughest schedule in the state and fared pretty well. Upperman has played a tougher schedule than either Central or Polk and only have one loss. It's unfortunate that these four teams are in the same sectional because they are probably four of the five best teams left with the inclusion of Gibson. Just come ready to play.

Here is my opinion on why they may have a "real"shot this year.

1) Senior leadership, they play together very well

2) strength program showing signs of paying off

3) 10 deep with subs that really contribute

4) A real presense at the post position, something they never have had at the State Tournament

5) lot of experience at the guard position

6) last but not least... full court, man to man, in your face, borderline nasty DEFENSE, every night!!
