  1. and every year, here, people complain about the $10 for all day pass at the state tournament and $5.00 for parking, food, so it's not just the venue, there were complaints when it was in Chatt. about the amount charged and parking, food etc, etc, etc....... same story different year..... anyone have a solution? Are fans here in Tennessee willing to pay by session a fee, or $75-$100 for an all session pass? I would..... but I'm just 1 person........ Anyone know the cost associated with the event being at Bridgestone, Municipal Auditorium......... any other venue, any other city?
  2. Just a point of ref.... Ohio, 5 sessions $15 each session.... or advance purchase $75 lower bowl or $55 upper for an all session pass.
  3. I don't recall seeing any negative comments from your posts & appreciate that. I'm starting to acknowledge & encourage more this kind of approach with positive rating points voted on two of my favorite posts every day. It's a quiet and anonymous way to say thanks for one's input. for what it's worth

  4. To anyone who really "watched" this young man wrestle, no contest .. CBHS Oliver. There were other great wrestlers it could have gone to.....but not this year in D II
  5. Maybe to rotating sites................ Suggestions.........reference point Ag Expo seats 4,200 Main arena floor 45,000 sq ft Nashville - Municipal Auditorium- seats 9,600, Main arena floor 63,000 sq ft. Chattanooga - Mckenzie Arena proven location, note is there floor space for 12 mats, is there an optional location in Chatt. Knoxville - Thompson Bowling - is there another option? Again is there floor space for 12 mats Memphis - Pyramid?? Any other options Each year the event moves in some rotation process, as well as, the duals and individual would never be in the same location in the same year Any locations ideas...... To place 12 mats with space around, need at least 40,000 sq ft min. Oh well, ........... "California Dreaming"
  6. Let's see...... Well you have a weight class... 106, each division draws 1, 2, and 3.... This would be the order of pick, AAA draws 1 makes their choice first.....then proceed to 2 then 3..... Repeat the entire process on each weight class.........until all Divisions by weight class are assigned. The process should be completed in 45 mins or less.... As long as all the coaches are available for the process.......... Most coaches know who they respect and trust, or NOT
  7. IDEA...... maybe the championship match head coaches should pick the officials they want to call their wrestlers final. Then disk flip who is the lead official and the assistant........... You accomplish 2 very important things 1)you have officials that each wrestler and coach respects and has confidence In a fair, even match, and, 2)eliminate some of the coaches trepidation when they see who is calling their match Just another pipe dream?!
  8. Agree with the comments about the pictures, action and podium shots............ Fight fire with fire... Don't purchase any pictures, hit the economics................. If anyone took pictures they would be willing to share with the parents of the finalist NO CHARGE......... Respond here
  9. LOL, i had to read your post again, .......... you got all your facts from the "article", ....... REALLY, oh yeah, we ALL know that the media prints, 100% accurate information(sarcasm for those, you know who you are)..........LOL, LOL, LOL, (sigh) got to feel sorry for anybody who relys on the media for their information, fyi, all credabilty gone, go ahead an delete your posts, it will ease the embarassment heres a thought, the coach is innocent until proven guilty by the facts, we have all seen the media convict someone before everything comes out secondly, something occured to this young lady, and her fear is real because of what occurred, no doubt #1 TRUTH, both families need our thoughts, prayers, and support #2 TRUTH, NONE of us were there
  10. "South End of a North Bound Mule Award - given to an unnamed official ... Heath Eslinger (to much applause and laughter from the crowd) and Max Ofori accepted on behalf of the official who was not in attendance... presented by Jeff Rufolo (who else?).. who has stupendously held the award in high esteem the past 12 months." WOW! was this a group of officials calling out one of their own from another part of the state ...... this might get good!!! /popcorneater.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":popcorneater:" border="0" alt="popcorneater.gif" />
  11. HMMMMMMM............. coach g.... i did not hear a no /rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
  12. coach gonyea what about Hamm and you for the blackman position /hungry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hungry:" border="0" alt="hungry.gif" />
  13. just remember the TSSAA is affected by the economy IF the public or private schools that are part of the program drop sports because of budget constraints and cutbacks. this is a very interesting string.............. there are some options, that could have promise while boosting the economy of the chatt area and intrest in wrestling.......... D1 AAA change to double elim stay at the Roundhouse along with D2. A timestudy would prove that D1 can be run on the same 3 days with a 2 hour earlier start on day 1 and as mentioned previously use some of the dead time during day 2 and 3. Then D1 A-AA could be run simutaneously at McKlellan (sp) on day 2 and 3, as is D2 currently. Then all 3 finals could take place in the roundhouse on the final day............ what a great event!! looks good on paper!!
  14. it is a great loss to the blackman program with coach harmon stepping down...... but our families must come first, and we wish him the BEST. but..... what about the guy who got it started at blackman,......... Coach Mike Levi,...... he was at afew matches this year and/maybe..............................out of retirement, what about it Coach L.
  15. what about matt sweeton 3x state champion from tullahoma 1998, 2000, 2001.......... takedowns were/are still coach lester's trademark
