Class AA State Tournament Thread

...CPA has 9 juniors, 1 sophomore and 1 freshman- after the "hand picked" team graduates in May 2014 what happens then?...

 

As we all "know," successful programs automatically and naturally draw the best players. Course if that's the case, not sure why such an imbalance between grade levels. Maybe nothing more than an anomaly, maybe those savvy parents out there simply waiting for some playing time to open up before making the contact to begin the admissions process.

Dear CPA....These teams are scared of you that is why this entire post is about you...I am here to say that win lose or draw there is one team that is located on the Tennessee/Georgia state line that looses players every year to Private Schools, and Georgia schools....This team has the most ever state appearances in the state and has not won a TSSAA championship in bball...This team is the Howard Hustlin Tigers....I just want you to know that they will be glad to play you in the first round or anyother time during this tournament.....Bottom line is i think everyone is scared of you but we will welcome a ballgame anytime with you ...Lets do it

....and those type of wishes are probably why you guys don't have a state championship. No one wants to play CPA until the state championship....

this year that is true, but last year and year before, what about bradshaw? i know for a fact he played at greenbrier his freshmen and sophmore year.

It's almost hilarious to read the "persecuted" public school fans complain about CPA getting an unfair advantage. For years, for example, Smith Co. football posters whined about this issue, then last summer when they had a good QB transfer to their school from BA (a private school), they were fine with it, and said they were glad to get him. I can name 10-15 great athletes over the years that transferred AWAY from CPA to public schools (due to grades or discipline issues) or to other D-II private schools (to get a full ride). One thing will never change: some face life and work harder, some whine and quit.

    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
