Nope!  They said Sunday that Jamie had been signed to drive it already.  As far as him fitting in the #6 car, they're both midgets, so that shouldn't be a problem. :P

 

Just kdding, I like both of them.

McMurray doesn't start driving the #6 car until 2007 (which is 2 YEARS from now).

 

Rousch still does not have a guy to drive the Viagra Ford in '06 thumb

Just wish that some of these young drivers would learn from a guy like Mark instead of acting like Jimmy Spencer all the time.

Thank you! thumb

 

I would love to know where some of the drivers learned their manners when they were kids!

 

And, catfish-hunter, it's not 2 years away. Next year is '06, and that was the 1 more year I was talking about. To be totally correct about it, it's 1 1/3 years away. Is that better? Excuse Me! :lol:

 

I would enjoy seeing Mark in the car again next year, but I don't see it happening for a full season. Of course, he said on the radio as he crossed the line to win the Nextel All Star Challenge, that he would come back and run it again next season, if they gave him a ride to do it in. Somehow, I don't see that being a problem! ;)

 

Roush Racing owes their position in the sport to Mark Martin, Period!

I'm not getting mad. Where did you get that? I love Mark and have enjoyed watching him race for the past 20 yrs. or so. Back to when he was racing full time in the Busch Series. Did you hear this from someone associated with NASCAR, Roush Racing, or Mark Martin? If not, like I said, I don'tsee him coming back for the full schedule. He has alreeady stated for a couple of years now that he wanted to spend more time with Matt and help him make it to the next level.

    • Lol! I was being a bit facetious. 
    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.
