    Let’s be real....there are 7 divisions with 16 man brackets....Brookwood being the 3rd best team in CH division. You better be placing 11.

    CH from back in the day.....most definitely could have competed, maybe beat Baylor..... no way they compete this year though.

    CH or Archer from back in the day would beat just about any team in the Southeast, now or back then.  They were both Top 10 teams Nationally.  

    The only team in GA this season that could compete with Baylor is Woodland-Cartersville.  That would be a fun dual to watch.

    With all the discussion as to who the best P4P wrestler in Tennessee is at this moment I pose the question as to who will have the best college career and why?

    I am bias, but I’ve been around for a while.  I'm pretty sure Whitworth has never lost to any of the guys on that list when they were at the same weight.  It probably doesn't matter, but I know the last time he wrestled Dendy at the GA Freestyle / Greco State tournament he teched him in Greco and pinned him in Freestyle.  Last year, he teched Jaxon Smith (FLO ranked 15th @ 160 & placed 4th at the 32 this year) 10-0 in the GA Freestyle State Finals.  I'm not sure about the other guys, but he'll be the complete package for whichever college lands him; grades and wrestling IQ.  Between growth spurts and inconvenient injuries, he hasn't had the same results Nationally as some of the others, but he's finally starting to settle into his size and I think that will change drastically over the next 2 seasons.  His style should transition into college pretty seamless…. he’s not a trash or a gimmick wrestler like some guys that are successful in high school.  I think his college ceiling is higher than anyone in the state for those reasons, except maybe Trae McDaniel.

  5. Thoughtful response.

     

    I wasn't suggesting a total purge of the existing staff and I am in total agreement , we are not and likely will not be competing with some of the top 5 teams you mentioned, ever. That said I am concerned our local bar may be a bit low, a top 25 and 1st or second in the socon should be a bare minimum expectation each and every year. If as you noted we get a couple of ranked guys and a few others step it up cracking the top 20 should not be too far fetched.

     

    I agree with you about the bare minimum.  Heath's done a great job within the SoCon almost every year, so I wouldn't be too alarmed about this season just yet.  NCAA's haven't been that kind to us though.  Our highest finish since 09'-10' is 45th with every other year north of 50 and no AA's.
