I hear what your saying Scott and i dont really care what group you put him in all i know is he graduated with your son and mine.  This is good TN has come a long way and more coming

Well he graduated in 2021 and wrestled 4 high school years.  Their version of red shirting.   Just like all that go to ivy league schools-and do the same thing.  On multiple wrestling publications they have Trae  listed as a signed recruit for 2021 class.  Class 2021

Trae McDaniel would be class of 2021.

Josh i was just messing with you but agree, that logic for best program doesnt add up.  But Scott could have been doing it to spark conversation or mess with people.  Its all good!

Why you mad Boskens?  Lol

Great accomplishments from all of the kids.  Been battling each other since elementary.   Hope all get that degree cause that's what it is about at the end of the day!

Congrats!  Proud dad!

Sorry but if you were a ref I dont know that means you know wrestling.  No jokes!!  Lol, however Trey understood the message.  Train harder.

We talk weekly good dude but he owes me a drink or two!  Lol

Gotcha, and you are 100% correct Trae is a beast and I will enjoy watching him at the next level.  Good family and support system.  Both Trey and Trae have enjoyed competing and motivating each other since elementary school.  Great watching them grow up and sad Bruce and I are getting old!!

Well he won 106, 120 and hopefully 126 this year.  If he would have stayed at Beech as a sophmore 113 as he was at Baylor at 113 for the first semester.

What I’ll never understand is that you’ll never hear much about Traes accomplishments for the state of Tennessee or at a national level. Kids that have done less get more exposure it seems. The kid is a absolute monster and a great kid. Speaking of that loss to 5-3 loss to Bates a couple years ago in the finals. That very next year they wrestled, Trae absolutely mauled Bates. That motivated him like crazy and shows how hard he works. This kid as been underestimated for 4 years now. As won state at 3 different weights. Somebody better put some RESPECT on Traes name!!!!!

Trae is a beast but to be clear with facts it was 2 years later at 126 pound.  Trae dominated the match winning 5 to 1 and feeling bad about it got Trey pinned at the end of 3rd period ( that's what happens when you are feeling to confident).  Not sure on mauled however he did win and made a statement.  Just like facts to be correct however Trae is a beast.  By the way Trey could win at 3 weight classes if all goes well and if he does he would be a sure 4 timer if not for the injury/hiccup as a sophmore where he did not wrestle.  Someone better but some RESPECT in Trey and TRAE name....

Clemmons pinned Fisak in the first meeting and then lost to him at Regionals.

Smith is at the FR tournament.   Beech whole team

Yes he will be at FR tournament at 126

Like I said those items should be communicated via either Noah or his family not friends unless told to do so by the family (sorry i have this code thing).  I cant speak for Whitworth but i know Noah is being looked at so i will leave it at that.

I am positive that these boys have received looks as their options in most cases should not be publicized as this should be kept in house with family and friends.  In addition , just because a kid signs with a college doesnt mean that money for wrestling was given as academics or other circumstances may play a large roll.  My vote is still Noah-my opinion .

My money is on Noah.  I dont count/compare the Whitworth and Palmer match as that was 2 years ago, different styles and Palmer flat out gassed with a 3 point lead going into the 3rd period -then gave up 2 sets of back points.  Again all good kids but my vote would be Noah based on his style and coaching both Noah and Palmer for a few years.  Just to be clear Whitworth is a bad boy as well.

Placement from previous year is how he lays it out , correct me if I am wrong

Now that is funny!!

Super 32 toughest!!  

Scott I disagree as Super 32 is the toughest.  Fargo is a great accomplishment but with cadet and the Junior along with multiple extra weights it comes in 2nd to me.  Great list but you have a ton of Fargo placers that never place at Super 32.  My opinion. 

Just like all other national tournaments parents and kids find their way and should not have to opt in to all the other options that just inflate cost.  I understand a cost for clothing and entry fees but if you will provide for yourself/kid why should you have to pay anything else.  If you as a parent are supplying the transportation,  food and hotel accommodations why would you need to pay these portions of the estimated cost as those items/cost should not be charged.  Camps- if you are going to Fargo and you havent been training with some of the best in the state by the best coaches you may need to rethink going.  We all know who to seek for training in TN whether your in Nashville or Chattanooga (not sure for Memphis or Knoxville).  Also these kids are 15 to 18 years old, why am I giving money to someone to then pay out an allowance daily.  How about I give the money to my son and he pays for his meals- just like 100% of the other national tournaments we enter every year.  I am excited to see the final plan when completed.   It's not that hard!!  Just another national tournament. 

So why are we posting a $1500 fee if it was not voted on?  Information should only be released when finalized.

Ridiculous. Cost are outrageous and my boy will not go to fargo.  Almost every state is cheaper.  Really sad!
