They'll be better off without Deuce Knight. He clearly wasn't committed to the school or the program. It's a good group of seniors. Everyone knows that they're great football players. Now they can show what kind of young men they are.
So they were cool with Mawae taking the transfer and letting him play over the projected starter even though he was not committed to the school or program while their guy watched from the sidelines?
Sounds like they have battled through some team chemistry issues.
Lots of football left!

It's pretty simple SportsTNFan. All you have to do is go to a school website and fill out an inquiry form.

Thanks, @BobCorker .
Are you saying in this particular example (it can be used with other student-athletes and teams across the state), that the Admissions Team on Monday morning checks their inbox and sees two wrestling All American applications from another TSSAA school. Then they call the Head Coach to surprise him with the news that the two wrestlers and their family randomly decided to apply to the school and program over the weekend?

The staff at DB is 100 percent first class. You couldn’t ask for a better group. Sometimes opportunities open for for kids that have nothing to do with their current coaches. Kingsport is definitely loaded with great coaches between DB and TNWA.
Agreed 100% on the staff at DB and TNWA in East Tennessee! Future is bright for that program!
To your message, NormanDad. When “opportunities open up for the kids,” how does it happen?
In this situation referenced, does a parent call Baylor to see if they can be accepted and be part of the program?
Does a Baylor coach talk to the kid who is already enrolled and on the roster of another TSSAA school? (NCAA references that as “tampering,” but not sure the TSSAA cares)
Does a Baylor Club coach set up the connection and work between the parent and high school?
It looks like the 2023-24 TSSAA season will have a record number of transfers across the state in all different sports.
Just curious how it all plays out. (You can change out the name “Baylor,” and insert a number of schools in this situation this season, especially with the law that was passed for, “Name, Image and Likeness,” in Tennessee)

Did Titus Norman transfer to Baylor as well as Max?
If true, they are also rumored to have another top national kid from Ohio too.

Wow! At one Tournament during the season a coach was telling fans that he thought he would end up at Cleveland.

I agree with you...we still have a lot to prove. My comment was directed at your statement that we don't develop our own talent. We're trying.
Does that also include a couple of kids outside their club that are potentially coming from the Cookeville Wrestling club and boarding next season?

@durdon has posted that McCallie is about to be back competing at a high level in DII. It will be fun to see them and Baylor going at it again!
”There has been a change at McCallie administration and now all sports especially wrestling are getting love again.
McCallie has the best coaching staff in the state with Yost, Pitts, Leavit, Newman and the rest. And now they are loading up with a massive class of freshman that have already said they are coming in and possibly of a few more they still may get.
McCallie is going to be on top again here soon.” - Durdon

Based on the article, it looks like LA has self imposed sanctions and looking to appeal on Wednesday.

That doesn’t sound like taking up for his wrestler. It sounds like crying at a call he didn’t like.
I watched it. It was absolutely the correct call.
Thanks for the response.
I respect your opinion, and did not see the call in question and was appreciative of feedback.

If Coach Knox was actually quoted saying that one of his wrestlers lost due to an official, will he be fined? I know that in college you get fined for complaining publicly about an official.
I do not know the answer, but it looks like he was taking up for one of his wrestlers, so I was curious about the call.
Allan Jones would happily write the check for that fine as they will add to the state championship trophy case again this year.

What happened at 160 with Fowler and McTorry?
2022 medalist Cy Fowler fought back from a loss in the semifinals and will go for a third-place medal against Clarkville's Jack Stein.
“He (Fowler) lost in the semifinals, to an official,” said Knox.

Has anyone heard rumblings of LA talking to Scott Wells about joining the football staff and restarting the wrestling program?

Thanks WG. D2 rankings are interesting. I would move some of the guys around. The glaring one to me is the #3 HWT who didn’t win a match the entire weekend. He was pinned twice, one in regional and one in state. I venture to say it would have been 3 times had he faced the MBA HWT. I am waiting to see how regionals will pan out this weekend.
DII has not been updated since 1/27, so they have not made any changes to their rankings since then.
