I agree totally with you on Johnson. I just hadn't watched him enough. Definitely the real deal.

 

After this weekend, I'll make a revision:

 

1-Felix-Does he make everything look just insanely easy or what

 

2-Mansen-Totally dedicated, great postion, great kid

 

3-Ben Johnson-Solid like Mansen

 

4-Usary-Slick, conditioned, and poised

 

5-Demetrius Johnson-I had an inkling but now I believe

 

6-Brandon Wright-Impressive in the finals

 

7- Courtney Coffee-What a specimen-and physical-he punished his guy in the finals

 

8-Travis Creagan-Never lost his cool, found a way to win his second

 

9-Jay Adamson-Looked a little more human in the finals

 

10-Simpson-Impressive in the finals as well

 

Soddy 1, Bradley 2, Notre Dame 3, Science Hill 5, Ooltewah 6, Kingston 8-Way to go right side

Coffey... TWO TIME STATE CHAMPION

 

 

It was good to see him try a "slide by". He's now working on another takedown.

 

A single leg snatch will not get him beyond state champion.....I'm amazed he's

gotten this far with it. His strength will be matched at some point and he'll need

more technique.

 

As for now, enjoy the ride.

Coffey... TWO TIME STATE CHAMPION

2 time state champion who almost got pinned in his semi-final match. He only won that match 10-8 and fought off his back for a good portion of the second period. This does not qualify him as one of the best. Felix, Bundy, D. Johnson, J.M. Simpson and Manson (in no particular order) all were the class of the tournament. No one touched any of them. They are the best 5 in the state. I will not rank them, but you can.

If I didn't know all the hype on Corey I would have thought he was just a good wrestler after watching his last 2 matches at SD.

I would put the BA 112 above Corey.

 

No offense Blaster, but that's a candidate for one of the dumber claims made on this board this year (from page 8 of this thread, by MasterBlaster--that info didn't carry). I greatly anticipate Cash's future, but saying he's better than Manson now? Unbelievable.

Especially when Cash didn't even win state this year. Congrats Bailey Whitaker.

Exactly...I watched the match between Cash and Whitaker, and, while it was a good match, it did not look like the Baylor kis struggled much to pull off that win. Now, while saying Cash is better then Manson, thats a stretch. Quite a large one, actually. But Cash is a good wrestler and I look forward to watching him in future years.

    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game. 
    • No my fight, but ... if they were already college-caliber prior to transferring to BHS, and they already had FBS interest, and they end up at an FBS school, how did Bearden do anything for them?
