do people not realize there is more to life then wrestling?

your right!!..... but I keep hearing the young mans ''dreaming'' bout 5 and its looks like his parents are doing what they can to make that happen. Its OK by me just as long as its within TSSAA rules. Guess you can't have an opinion on here without someone cussin and gettin irate. :thumb:

I know that going from DI to D2 you have to have a county inbetween your home-county and the D2 county school in order to participate in athletics that year. D2 to D2 rules are anybodys guess. I guess theres a rules book on it. I thought this kid lived in northern Georgia as some time here in the recent past?.................doe's he still? :thumb:

Sounds a little complex, if you ask me, but I'm still riding that short bus - so who would? WV? :thumb:

 

I know he is wrestling in GA this weekend as mentioned earlier.

ok i dont know too much about this kid or whats going on but from what i understand he is leaving baylor so he can be a 5 time state champ and mccallie

first problem i see with this this if he is good enough to be a 5 time state champ why isnt he still at baylor...maybe somebody couldnt win their wrestle off?

second problem the kid is an eight grader...have fun wrestling isnt your whole life

3rd problem- 5 time state champ, last one i could remember was the kid from ny nickerson? i think, who has this kid beat to be thinging about a 5 time state champion or is he doing something called dreaming

How in the he!! do you know what he " ...want's to be ... " ?. I don't know exactly why he chose to transfer and I doubt you do either. I don't see where it is anyone on this boards business why he traded red for blue. He hasn't wrestled for any highschool yet. Show me where he has weighed in for a varsity match and I'll concede the argument to you, until then you are tilting at windmills. What's the point ? Raise enough stink to where TSSAA feels they have to do something, even if it is wrong ? Leave the kid alone and let's see how he does against high school competition. Tons of middle schoolers roll with high schoolers all over the state in practice, that shouldn't be cause for TSSAA to restrict their parents choices.

 

Maj,

 

You are having a melt down. Why are you all up in arms over people voicing their opinion? What happened is nobody's business but TJ and his family, you are right, however, it is our rights in this country to voice our opinion. You certainly have plenty to say when it comes to the TSSAA. Practice what you preach. You need to take a chill pill. Yes, let's leave the kid alone, let the parents do what they feel is best for him and all will come out in the wash. What bothers me is that more and more parents are pimping their kids around to schools to see what the best deal they can get. Parents are living thru their children taking them all over the country to tournaments and you can see in the kids face they are not into it as much as their parent. This is totally wrong.

 

McCallie is a great school with a great coach and great program, however, it does not mean everything is rosy. You will see next year! Want us to leave this kid alone, then leave the TSSAA alone and practice what you preach.

It takes a paying John to facilitate your "pimping" senario.

 

I'm at a loss as to why anyone out here is wanting to place judgement on the young man or his family. It appears that they weighed their options then did what they deemed best for them - nobody's business but their own.

 

I get a real kick out of Wrestle90's pitch where the benevolent blue only what to help the young lad pursue his "dream", but no mention of their existing 112 lber's dream who was a tornado youth wrestler and a paying blue wrestler for 4 years now. That family has been loyal blue for years. Where's AllSaints on this angle of the topic as I recall his strongly worded post from last season concerning these fine prep schools funding athletes to replace the paying customers in the starting lineup?

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
