Carter vs. Fulton

[uptempo]

Thoughts?

Fulton will win as usual. Carter's new style of play will only beat lesser teams. It might be fun to watch but you don't win championships with it.

How many of Fulton's main guys are still playing football?

[FLMS]

Fulton will be missing a few guys and they always struggle this time of year but get much better as the season goes on.  By mid January they will be state ready again.  Unsure about Carter based on the schedule they've played so far but they have a nice team and a system of play that seems to be working well.

I was talking with my buddies at the Hardee's Friday round table today and guy familiar with Fulton said they played three freshman and a sophomore about half the game against Gatlinburg. That may indicate several players are in football still. Agree Fulton improves significantly as the season goes on. Thought I might go to game. But think I will stay home and watch play off football. Wish they would start televising some basketball games on Friday nights.

I wish so too but Mark Packard can't generate enough $$$ to justify a basketball game.

You obviously did not watch Gulf Coast Community College make their run in the NCAA tournament with their uptempo style and as a #15 seed beat "Lesser Teams" seeded higher...."bleacher coaches", you guys are a dime a dozen!!!!

[redandblack63]

It is Fla Gulf Coast University. He said that style will only best lesser teams. Maybe Fulton is a lesser team. Still a little early in the year. Real Basketball will start in January. I usually go to a few games at Central. Will Carter play at Central this year. Like to see what all the fuss is about. Is Bull still the coach.

The kids buy into the uptempo style. I have yet to see Carter play but from the scores I'm seeing, they must be the team to beat.

 

Fulton is only missing about 3 players that played a lot last year so let's not use that they're missing football players as an excuse. Just saying

[redandblack63]

So Fulton is missing three potential starters. That's 60% of potential starters. Needless to say they will be a different team when footballers return and get their basketball legs. Just saying.

Just making an assumption based on Turtles comment that Fulton was missing three players that played a lot last year. So I concluded they would be potential starters this year. Other wise I wouldn't have a clue. But like any school that has a deep run in the football playoffs early more than likely they will be short handed in basketball. For example read on 4 AA thread Catholic was playing with 6 players prior to football getting beat in the play offs. Catholic, West, Alcoa, Fulton are all playing with depleted rosters.
