Kudos to CPA and Coach M, missing state by a whisper with a team which everyone thought couldn't get out of district due to loosing 2 stars. Sometimes a team gets better when star players leave because it elevates everyone else's game who come back.

you are way underselling the players they had. Even without the dominant post player, they still had the best talent in their district. The point guard they  "settled" for might not have the size to play major college ball, but I am not sure he was not a better high school point guard than the one he replaced. I don't know anyone who thought they would not advance out of the district with the best talent of any team. It would have been hard to miss making the top 4.

They had a good season, and played well together. Adjusting the game plan to match the talent is part and parcel of coaching high school ball. By and large, they beat the teams with less talent, and lost to the ones with more. There was a quality win over Ensworth, and a nonquality loss to Ridgeway. I was still sort of surprised they did not make it to the state tournament.

    • Hmmmmm……doe dee doe doe….i drove the lawnmower down to practice today…….hmmmm…… we got some new faces………. One can run faster than my lawnmower in fifth gear…… a few will be disappointed come November that they jumped ship and went down to that sewage facility……. You can bet the lawnmower on that. 
    • I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.
    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job.
