You said you are cousins with Bryant? If so run that by him. I’m sure Bosken would

It would be fun to have a dual between to two schools at the youth level. Winner takes the gate/entry $

That man wants it to be a rival again. He was paying Steve up until a year or so ago if I’m not mistaken. Trust me when I say this… he does NOT give as much as people think he does. Yes it’s his building but as far as him pumping money into HCWC, he isn’t. Bosken has a great group of people around him that wants to help keep it going. But what helps us is him being as good and all in as he is. It’s that simple. He works his tail off at keeping the youth loaded.

If I’m not mistaken you brought your boy to one of our practices at the beginning of the season. Hope he is doing well.

Curious as to what made you leave the club when you had the staff you are talking about? and you know Jones has been VERY VERY wealthy for a long long time. 2005 he was worth 500 million.

You do realize that Jones paid Steve and WV the same amount of money he does for HCWC correct? HCWC just works harder. He matches the fundraising as well. So why wouldn’t we capitalize on that???

Sorry I’ve just never seen your pic in the JC. I’ll look tomorrow. I’m not frustrated at all. Just blown away at how the kids club is and no effort or pride taken over the years to where it is now. Didn’t you have a club for a few years at grit house?

Not bashing you but before Bosken and Knox, kids wasn’t flocking to come to Cleveland. So that being said, what they have done and doing is elite. No? Look at the other side of town and it’s pretty evident

Lived here all of my life and actually graduated from Bradley. lol why would I not talk to anyone about the way I feel and see? I’m at the JC almost everyday! I can promise, your pic isn’t all over the JC. But like I said earlier, it’s a shame that nobody has tried or put much effort into the kids club. WV is the only other school in this town and they have never had tradition or a rival to Cleveland imo.

The lack of commitment to the youth is why they are where they are now. And now they wanna get ruffled when others are calling them out. If you want to make Bradley somewhat relevant again, get out there and bust #### and build the youth program up! It would be sad to see a Bradley vs HCWC K-8 dual. It would be worse than Thursday night. You have to have someone like Bosken that pours their heart into it and make kids wanna leave Bradley to come wrestle for HIM. Trust me, it’s happening more and more. I want the “pride” coach/coaches to get it together and make it fun again as a rival. Because right now as you can see in the stands Thursday night, it’s not worth the price of admission for Bear fans.

You said you are an assistant at Bradley? Was you at the beginner tourney today?

Just curious… how many coaches were at the higher calling beginner tournament today?

the same thing would be said. Not trolling. Just stating facts. It is what it is.

Hahahahaha nobody is beating their chest. Just stating facts. Maybe you can explain… doesn’t take a smart individual to see years ago that these days were coming. Right? Sooo why not build up from the youth program? Did they not care or did they think they could just get whoever and spit out studs?

Pride? I agree 100%

A lot of parents has bought in and the perfect storm is rolling. Parents help out a lot with fundraising. Have to have that kind of commitment in order to be successful. And to have them buy in you have to have Elite coaches for them to trust. That is why Cleveland is on top.

Just stating facts.

Sorry. Don’t mean to ruffle feathers. Just calling it like I see it.

In just saying, the name Bradley Pride should be changed because no pride has been in the youth program for YEARS. That’s exactly why Bradley is where they are at now. Wanna be the best you gotta go out and train and wrestle the best. I’d be willing to make a bet that MY 4th grader will graduate and never seen Bradley beat Cleveland. Any takers? LOL They are in deep deep trouble and last night is how it’s gonna be for the foreseeable future.

Trust me, he will graduate and never see them beat Cleveland. plus Cleveland youth program is more relevant than Bradley’s varsity. lol

Well 63-3. I have to say I’m a little shocked they won a match. But then again it wasn’t our starter. I feel for Bryant… long long road ahead. I will say my 4th grader will be graduated and never lost to the Bears. LOL

This is the first year I’ve seen any around also. Not many but a few. Only one kid I know of has been going to tournaments by himself with his parents coaching him. He is 10.

If you don’t think Ben got out at the right time then that’s hilarious. He knew what was happening after last years seniors graduated. here is a question… why NO effort in kids club? Bosken and Knox has the perfect storm at Higher Calling pumping out ready to go wrestlers to MS on to HS. Zero effort in the kids club. Or shall I say no pride in it. their struggles started years ago at the youth level. Now it’s showing. I would be shocked if Bradley wins ONE weight class tonight.
