  1. I like Kenny to win the whole thing, but if I'm not mistaken Kirns should meet up with the Ravenwood kid first! This kid is no pushover, just ask Mr. Weakly from Clarksville.
  2. I have a question for you clarksvillesman. Will Weakly go 215? I heard from someone that would know that he has beaten every one of the top seeds in this weight class. His chaces at winning stae would be much higher at 215! He's a favirite of mine and I was just wondering?
  3. All you guys talking about Kenny evidently haven't had the opportunity to watch him wrestle this year. I understand your statements regaurding the previous years and if I hadn't seen him wrestle this year at practice and taped all of his matches this season I would say the same thing. Based on those two seasons dentdoc has stated exactly what I would have thought. Kenny has improved every year, but this season he has changed his whole mind set. He started the season with a maturity and confidence level rarely seen in a high school kid. As far as the Cambell kid goes, he was a great Champion. Kenny's only loses last year was to him and another great Champion Mike Marable! Names metioned every time we discuss good wrestlers from the past. I bet both of those young men would tell you he was no push over and they were nervous everytime they stepped on the mat with him! Kenny has greatly improved this year and anyone who has had the privilege to see him wrestle at the tournaments this year knows this. Especially at the Brentwood tourney where he put on a clinic in the championship match against the guy that beat the same guys that are supposed to give Kenny a run for his money. Yes, anyone can get beat at any given time (ie. Whit Dunning most recently, another GREAT Tn. wrestler). But, if Kenny avoids any mistakes I personally don't think anyone at any weight in Tn. can beat him this year. Good luck Kenny, make them all believe! You're biggest fan! Slim589 thumb
  4. Cortney is a good wrestler but K.Meredith would beat him badly this year. Kenny's experience would be too much for this young man right at this point. Cortney's senior year he will probably be as good as Kenny if he stays dedicated and goes to some good tech. camps. He has a good chance at 215 at state though.
  5. Way to go MTSU! thumb I think working with Kenny has helped you a little, huh Hamm? See you at practice monday big guy.
  6. Trent is doing fine although he is finished for the season. Along with the dislocation he chipped part of the elbow. He has surgery scheduled for tommorrow. Tyler thanks for being concerned, I'll tell him you were asking how he was doing! Good luck the rest of the season!
  7. Kirn did not wrestle. They said he was sick. thumb
  8. Great list! You could be real close.
  9. Aaron is a Senior this year.
  10. (lol) You guys know i'm a BLAZE fan! I'm just trying to keep the target off my boys backs! I guess the cats out of the bag now, huh! I can't wait for this weekend to see if all our hard work pays off at Tull. You are going to be there aren't you Hamm!
  11. Come on Hamm Blackmans weak, just ask the Riverdale guys their gunna wax the BLAZE! (LOL) thumb
  12. You mean Aaron? He's a tall skinny wet noodle, and about as strong as one too!
  13. MAN! How can you even compare McGavock to a reg. 4 5a team? PLEASE!!! When was the last time they made the playoffs???????????????(lol)
  14. Antioch could very possibly upset Franklin. This is probably the best 1st round matchup in the playoffs!
  15. I've been the Wrestling Booster club president at my school for 3 years and we average spending between $7,500 to $8,000 dollars a year. With the small amount of wrestlers on an average team, raising that kind of money is very tough! As we all know not all parents get involved with fund raising for one reason or another.(No time, not interested, ect.) It is always the same few who pitch in! So asking $200 a wrestler is just a drop in the bucket! To be honest that barely covers a third of what you need. At our school it is my understanding the boys baseball team has a fee of $750 per player. A parent can simply pay the fee or must help with fund raisers until they raise this amount for their child. Plain and simple all the money goes to the kids one way or another, ie. travel expenses, Hotels, equipment, banquets and awards, and other misc. stuff. I just wish everyone would stop and think about what the money is for and where it's going before they jump in and say it's wrong! We're all volunteers trying to help the kids and the programs flourish! Sorry for my banter, just another busy parent who doesn't appreciate the uneducated critisizer. Any help to any program is greatly appreciated! So if a child knocks at your door at least listen to him and think about what it was like when you were a kid! Thank you! thumb
  16. No way! His legs weight 160 lbs. alone! Someone who really knows give us his status. Proud Daddy, Meredith was right at 189 at the hydration test.
  17. Hey Buck, do you have any info on these guys you listed from last year? And did they wrestle at this weight last season?
  18. Does anyone know if the Knox kid from Farragut has taken the hydration test yet? He was huge last year at state, and rumor was he had a tough time making the weight at state with the extra pounds aloud. I just knew the Beast that he was he would have to move up with this new BS test their making everyone take!
  19. Alright all you guys in the know lets hear what you think about these 2 weight classes!
  20. Blackman's 119 is their 112 from last year. He's fat and out of shape.

    AP Top 10

    Polls mean NOTHING my friend until the end! Worry about next weeks game and respect will come when and if it is warranted!
  22. WOW! Blazer14, I'm glad I'm wearing my rubber boots because it's getting deep over here! Knows what he's doing??? Man I got to go it's deep! thumb
  23. You hit the nail on the head Riverdale! Week 15 always shuts up the doubters! Ignore the polls Warriors and keep your eyes on the prize! It can very easily slip right through your fingers, just ask those LC Falcons! If I remember right everyone was calling them state champions after they beat Blackman the 2nd game of the year last season! One friday night at a time! I can't stand Rankin but I love to see hometown boys do well! Forget the egos and keep the trophy in the 'Boro where it belongs! If the Blaze can't win it, it might as well be the Warriors!
  24. This won't be close! Until they get some coaches over there Riverdale will always dominate this so-called rivalry! The last 5 years would have been totally different if they would have hired Coach Crawford from the start when they had the chance!
