Out of all the wrestlers in Tennessee who will be the most dominant in the future like in college?

 

From class of 2007 we have among others Ben Johnson, Brandon Wright, Demetrius Johnson, Daniel Waddell, Darius Williams, Justin Spain, John Michael Simpson, and about half the soddy daisy team. Most of these guys have placed nationally sometime during their high school careers. I know Demetrius placed in some freestyle and greco tournaments that some people might not know about. Brandon Wright had the most success this past year with his 4th place finish at sr nationals so I guess that makes him the leader of the pack. But what about our younger guys? Who has the most potential? Offhand, I'd say Jake Young from Ooltlewah has to be #1 since he beat the national champion Danny Tolbert (who was a sophomore at the time) at regions and Jake was only a freshman! But don't forget about the trio of 8th grader 103 medalists and of course the infamous TJ Duncan.

 

Agree? Disagree? Who wants to talk about this?

the 8th grader is out of Greenback right

 

 

Yeah but he's gonna have a tough time getting the training he needs. Doesn't Greenback have like 200 kids in the whole school? Plus there aren't a lot of strong wrestling programs in that area. Jeremy can do it, but he's gonna have a tougher time staying on top than Alex Manley or TJ Duncan since they go to top schools and the toughest tournaments. Jeremy I guess will have to make up for it by getting as much experience on the national level as possible.

Yeah the 8th grader is from Greenback. The other 8th graders are Alex Manley from Baylor, Mark Simpson from MBA, and TJ Duncan from McCallie. There may be more but those are the ones I know of. By the way there's a 103 or 112 from Father Ryan named Anthony Simpson (I don't know how old he is). I wonder if he's coach Patrick Simpson's son which would make him cousin to John Michael and the others.

Anthony is the cousin of the other Simpson's. However, I believe that he is the son of Jim Simpson, Pat and Frank's brother.

    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
    • I'm from Cloudland and we've never played a sectional game.  We need to win tomorrow night to avoid that bus ride.  Us and north greene can play with you guys so I'm expecting good games whoever the matchup is.
