  1. Union is a different! I don't believe Ryan has beaten them in years. That Union team also does very well at the Drennan.
  2. The greatest coach in the state of Tennessee in my opinion. I'm not from Gallatin but played against Short coached teams. Always disciplined and hard hitting. In an era with only 3 classes and would dominate. A constant fixture in the Clinic Bowl. A true legend. RIP.
  3. My son called me late that night and asked WTH happened....LOL!!!
  4. You are in Sumner....what do you know about Nashville Catholic schools? Just kidding buddy!
  5. Marty is a great coach and still rebuilding. I also said that the Irish weren't proven with the wins on the record.
  6. Father Ryan beat a public school, a depleted Pope Prep, and a very down BA team. Should beat a depleted MBA as well. They haven't beaten a team at or above .500. This hasn't changed the minds of most die-hard alum.
  7. LA by 3 scores. Ensworth is improved but they don't have the horses (pun intended) that LA has.
  8. More losses this year than the previous two combined....there might be a running clock sighting. By far the easiest opponent for the Mustangs thus far.
  9. MBA is rebuilding so Ryan wins this one. Too bad the kids know nothing about painting the cannon....
  10. I don't know about that yet. I won't say BA is horrible, I will just say they are not good. Ensworth and Ryan play on the weaker side of D2/3A so I am still not convinced. Half the region is Memphis teams which is BA's only win.
  11. Father Ryan vs Pope Prep. Do the Irish break the 7 year drubbing for the Bishop's Cup?
  12. Paducah-Tillman and Union county in Kentucky are usually 1& 2 in their state. Smaller schools with great programs. Never seen PT facilities but have seen Union….nothing exciting. Really impressed with Union being a rural school in a 1 division state, and always in the mix. I tend to agree with cbg on this one, but can understand the other points of view.
  13. Add the Fishers from MBA and Nashville Catholic had 5 state champs this year. They are a great program for the area!
  14. I didn’t know Gentle didn’t wrestle in the regionals but still made state. I guess that happens when only 6 in the tourney. Not bashing the kid, just a crazy rule.
  15. I think Father Ryan takes traditional title. What is the most competitive weight class? Who has the most champions? Upsets to know about? Enquiring minds want to know!
  16. Thanks WG. D2 rankings are interesting. I would move some of the guys around. The glaring one to me is the #3 HWT who didn’t win a match the entire weekend. He was pinned twice, one in regional and one in state. I venture to say it would have been 3 times had he faced the MBA HWT. I am waiting to see how regionals will pan out this weekend.
  17. You had it right in D23A. What is your traditional champion prediction?
  18. Just got home so didn’t respond. You were absolutely right and I loved it.
