Man those two have had a heck of a season so far. Been following and I’m very impressed with what they have been able to do with the schedule they have. The four horseman at Greenville looking strong going into the post season!

On Wednesdays and Fridays Heritage high school will be hosting Open mat sessions from 5-7 leading into Super 32. These practices will consist of mostly a good warm up followed by a quick drill and then strait into live situations, short goes, and matches. Looking to use these days to get kids from all around Tennessee together for some good hard wrestling. If interested contact me I will leave my number at the bottom or you may also drop in. We will charge a $10 drop in fee for anybody not a member of our Outlaw wrestling club. Cost is to help pay coaches that will be coming in and giving there time and to help pay for kids who are maybe not fortunate to get the opportunity to travel with us. Coach Holland 8658094449

Tennessee was represented very well this weekend at the U15 and Cadet trials. Cooper looked like an animal!! Was great to see him get those revenge matches in the finals.

You know me big boy I go 0 to 100 really fast. I tell people how it is no beating around the bush. Some ignorant people in the world and I like to set them strait.

Who the F*** is this guy? Calm down keyboard warrior. Trying to respectfully run your mouth? Get that crap out of here. Kid does work his butt off and deserves every bit of success he is seeing. Get to know the family and kid be for you degrade them on a public forum on the choices they make.

Let’s not forget about the 2 young lady’s Caroline Hilton and Ryleigh Sturgil who both placed in the 12u girls division. Caroline was 5th at 83 and Ryleigh was 6th at 73.

On track it shows McCallie, Cleveland, and Greenville sending guys but I figured Baylor would be coming since TN private schools wouldn’t be able to compete at preps this year.

What teams will be sending guys to Beast of the East this weekend?

I would 100% I don’t say one thing online and then another to other people’s faces. I respect anyone who is willing to try to help. I might not like some coaches or some things that some coaches do but I will always respect everyone that has helped me get to the point I’m at and Scott (I don’t care how small of a part) has definitely been there for me and helped anytime I ask. We have also had our arguments but just because we haven’t always seen eye to eye doesn’t mean I will be disrespectful and talk down to him. Might not be a coach to you but to some he is. reallness

Wow that’s rude don’t you think? Don’t get me wrong I don’t always see eye to eye with Scott but I have put together and COACHED teams with him. You might not know him as a coach because he was traveling and coaching out of state something you should maybe think about trying.

If your talking about when the individual state was D1 and D2 none have I don’t think. My senior year at pigeon forge (2011) we finished 4th in the D1 traditional. Which besides Notre Dame taking 3rd in 2006 is the highest any small school has finished when it was combined at least to my knowledge. We didn’t win the dual tournament that year either Chat central beat us in the finals and then finished 20th in traditional.

Who do you think would have won AAA titles? I think they only have 2 state champs ever.

Actually I remember CAK had a couple of A/AA champs a couple of years ago and a guy win DII this past year but not sure if they ever had a AAA champ

Is Notre Dame the only team to compete in all 3?

I would have to agree with you on your list Scott. To say UWW, Fargo, and Ironman aren't the three top tournaments in the country tells me that a person doesn't watch a lot of top level wrestling. Super 32 is really high up there but with the lack of talent in the upper weights it drops down a few notches

Congrats to cooper he looked awesome this weekend!!! Impressive for another Tennessee club to have 2 guys place but there was another club do it first. Wolfpack had 2 guys place In 2016 Cooper Flynn and Matheson Meade

You can watch them. Just because they wrestle at schools out of the state doesn't mean you cant watch them online. Every tournament both hit threw the year is on Flo or Track. Both will be competing at high level tournaments threw out there high school seasons and I'm sure they will represent Tennessee very well.

Thats awesome!!! Forgot about Tommy in 2018 that is the only one not on the website. Great group for Coop to join with Bracket and Keller. Hope to see a lot more Tennessee names joining this list over the next few years. Especially with the group of cadets that are moving up next year

I was looking threw past results and really hate to state something if its not facts. I believe Cooper Flynn is the first wrestler from Tennessee to double up at Fargo in the Junior division. I think Matt Keller and Tommy Brackett both have 2 Junior All American honors (Tommy with both of his in Greco and Keller with both of his in freestyle) but from what I can find Cooper is the first to get 2 in one year.

who are the coaches you are brining in?

Scott, I understand that and agree that Don and AAU wrestling have helped tremendously with the growth of Tennessee wrestling along with my growth as a coach. I wouldn't be in the spot i'm in today without them. They were the ones to first see my potential as a coach and give me the opportunity to coach a national team and work with some of the best wrestlers in the state. We are talking about USA wrestling though and they don't have much, if any, involvement in USA to my knowledge. With the number of wrestlers Tennessee has you need both AAU and USA working together not competing against each other.

Isn't one of his responsibilities to bring the best coaches and athletes from the state together for the team? Or did i forget something and we just pull them out of a hat? As someone who has coached the Junior team the last two years I can tell you he is definitely not a coach but he did give us the freedom of making our line ups and giving us the freedom to do what we saw fit with the team on the mat. As for the funds, ref pay,and coaches pay I have no clue.

Not true.. While I don't agree with everything the man does he does have a lot of traits that are useful for a chairman. I think, and i have told him this face to face, if he wasn't so controlling and let the people put around him do more he actually wouldn't be doing that bad. The Junior team has had success the past couple years, we have had multiple Fargo AA's, I think the sportsmanship award a couple times at the duals and all this while a man, who apparently everyone hates, is the chairman. I think this could all be solved if just a couple guys would sack up an apologize to each other. So all though i don't always agree with Bowers I do believe if him and a couple other people would get there #### together Tennessee would take people by storm this summer

Alright this is getting about stupid y'all are all going to run the state into the ground because you cant work together and actually come up with ideas to help. You would much rather come on a forum and complain. While I definitely don't agree with everything Bowers does I don't see some of y'all stepping to the plate to try to deal with all he has to put up with. If he has upset you to the point you cant have a conversation with him you don't have to talk to him. All the other board members names are on here give them a call and tell them your ideas you think would help. Better yet just jump on the conference calls I Live in Maryland and I have still been on more conference calls then most of you probably have and he does post when they will be so no one can use the excuse i didn't know there was one. This talking trash about each other is not helping just hurting the state more.

hahaha you really going to call someone fat that's kind of childish not to mention the fact your not in the best of shape yourself bud. One man calling another a fat purple dinosaur though probably shouldn't be molding the minds of our future men.
