GIRLS WRESTLING BOYS

YOU, AS THE WRESTLING COACH, HAVE SPENT ALL FALL TRING TO FIND ENOUGH SHINNY AND PUNY BOYS TO FILL THE LOWER WEIGHT CLASSES. YOU FINALLY TALKED THEM INTO HAVING A SPORTS PHYSICAL (COUGH), PAYING ALL OF THE REDICULESS FEES (SOME OVER $100) AND TELLING THEM HOW MANLY THEY WILL LOOK IN THEIR UNIFORM. YOU TAKE THEM TO THE FIRST PRESEASON TOURNAMENT AND THEY GET THEIR CLOCK CLEANED BY A GIRL. THEIR WRESTLING CAREER IN NOW OVER. IT IS ONE THING TO GET BEAT BY A BOY AND ANOTHER THING TO GET BEAT BY A GIRL.

 

I AM ALL FOR EQUIAL RIGHTS. THAT IS WHY WE SHOULD PLACE GIRLS DIVISIONS IN ALL OF OUR PRESEASON AND J.V. TOURNAMENTS. WHAT OTHER SPORTS DO THE GIRLS PLAY WITH THE BOYS?

 

I DON'T REALLY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE GIRLS WRESTLING ON THE VARSITY. IN DUALS IF I HAVE A WEEK KID THAT DON'T NEED TO BE ABUSED BY A GOOD GIRL, I CAN MIX-UP MY LINE-UP AND FIND SOMEONE THAT CAN DEFEND HIMSELF OR FORFIET.

I agree, but the problem with forming a girls' division is the lack of competition. There aren't enough girls wrestling to have any effective tournaments; a girl could be a state champion without having to wrestle anybody.

 

Trust me, I don't like it either. I remember being so terrified of facing a girl that every time an opponent team would come in, I would instantly run over and scope out everyone to make sure there were no girls I would have to wrestle.

I really don't understand how you both can be so intimidated by women's wrestling. I mean come on here people! It is just another wrestler on the mat, just as determined to bust your lip with a cross face as any other. I have wrestled girls in my past career, and I was 215lbs! I now coach a girl in my own wrestling room with my boys, and she understands what she is getting into, and my boys know how hard she works. And I am telling ya guys, she will come around and knock the snot out of you!

Girls do not belong on the mat. Period. However, because of the screwed up culture that we live in, they are allowed to be there. This being said. If you have a wrestler that loses to a girl, TOUGH S###. They will either get over it or quit. As a competitor, I have had to deal with girls in the practice room. My opinion on the subject...When a women stops acting like a woman, beat her I mean treat her like a man.

MOST HIGH SCHOOL SPORT TEAMS THAT I KNOW OF CHARGE SOMETHING. AT OUR SCHOOL THEY CHARGE A $35 INSURANCE FEE. THIS IS FOR A SECONDARY POLICY THAT EVERYONE WHO PLAYS SPORTS MUST PAY. I KNOW OF SOME SCHOOLS THAT CHARGE AROUND $100. SOMETIMES THIS INCLUDES SOME PRACTICE GEAR. I HAVE HEARD THAT A SCHOOL IN WEST KNOXVILLE CHARGES OVER $500 FOR GIRLS SOCCER. THAT IS DEFINTELY REDICULES.

It is also my understanding that we will hold a separate girls state wrestling tournament either this year or next (I do not remember which) and they will be recognized as official TSSAA State Champions. I do like this for the fact that iti s one more step to separating them from the boys and still allowing them to compete.

 

I am all for girls wrestling, I like many others just want it to be against other girls. I can not think of another sport where girls compete against boys and certainly not in a sport as physical and contact oriented as wrestling. The fact that we are likely the most physical sport and the only sport where girls and boys are allowed to intermix really seems to be quite odd to me.

 

Just some other thoughs... now lets see if I kill this thread like I appear to have done to others recently /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

Is there really enough interest to sustain a seperate girls state tournament? Is it fair to the boys who work their butts off? If the bracket only has 4 girls can you really call her a champion? Girls wrestling is a farce. It already has roots at the international level and it has screwed both freestyle and greco. When fem wrestling started coming on, the weight classes were cut. In the mid 90's, there were 10 international weight classes. Today, there are 7. The number of mens weights was reduced because of the additional medals that would be awarded to the womens division.

Unless there is enough interest to fill all the weights with at least twelve in each bracket, everybody that cares about wrestling should oppose this mockery.

    • Fortuitously encountering Clint amidst the ambience of Goodyear this morning sparked an impromptu yet intellectually stimulating conversation, wherein we engaged in a rigorous assessment of prospective candidates for the esteemed role of head football coach. Our discourse, characterized by its spontaneity and depth, led to the formulation of astute observations and discerning judgments regarding the suitability of various individuals for this pivotal position. Allow me to elucidate the fruits of our collaborative contemplation: This commentary endeavors to offer a discerning articulation of my subjective viewpoint, emphasizing a conscientious commitment to maintaining impartiality and refraining from any semblance of derogation directed towards individuals.  Those who possess meritorious qualifications for the esteemed head coaching role, delineated without hierarchical precedence, include: Rennard Woodmore, an esteemed alumnus of the Yellow Jackets, presents a magnificent pedigree, having held prominent positions in head coaching capacities across various regions. His pivotal role as a coordinator for teams contending for state championships further enhances his stature in the realm of football leadership. Kyle Gregory, erstwhile adorned in the resplendent gold insignia, though lacking direct head coaching experience, brings to the fore his invaluable insights garnered as a coordinator for esteemed teams, showcasing an acute understanding of the requisites for triumph whilst attired in the esteemed purple and gold regalia. Steven Jackson, whose contributions transcended mere clipboard duties under the tutelage of Kevin Creasy, emerges as an exceptional candidate for Trousdale County. His prior tenure and triumphs as an assistant coach underscore his suitability for the role. The sole drawback lies in his lack of affiliation with Trousdale County as an alumnus. Brandon Eden's extensive tenure within the chronicles of Trousdale County football, spanning a significant portion of its State Championships, coupled with his successful stints as a coordinator across diverse locales, underscores his candidacy despite a dearth of direct head coaching experience at the high school level. Davy Cothron, while beset by a modest playing career, has emerged as a luminary in offensive strategy, drawing parallels to the transformative appointment of Barker in 2015, thereby warranting consideration for his proven acumen in this realm. Joshua Hackett, notwithstanding his non-alumnus status, has left an indelible imprint across Middle Tennessee, distinguished by his adept curation of formidable defensive units as a coordinator at Watertown, albeit without direct head coaching experience. Kevin Creasy, the epitome of coaching prowess, merits an offer irrespective of his current inclinations, his unparalleled capacity to secure victories transcending geographical and institutional bounds, potentially extending to a role as Director of Schools should it align with his aspirations. Conversely, individuals who have not demonstrably earned the mantle of head coaching, enumerated without sequential precedence, encompass: Brad Waggoner David Barker Paul Pitts Jeremy Pruitt Clint Satterfield Robbie Atwood Wesley Satterfield Ben Johnson BJ West Whom do you all deem most fitting to assume the mantle of the next coach, and what rationale informs your choice? Conversely, whom do you perceive as ill-suited for the role, and what underpins your reasoning for their exclusion?
    • He's a Clinton fan.  But I wouldn't admit that either.  
    • Their any schedule out their for team camp?
    • This sums it all up to perfection.  
    • Just read the article! In one statement he says he didn’t know the player was academically ineligible yet he also says he met with a teacher in 2022 to discuss putting the player in credit recovery.  I find it hard to believe a Head Coach doesn’t know a player is not eligible; are they not responsible for clearing them to the TSSAA?
