No place in either division as an 8th grader. Not at 160.

 

 

We will never know since Pinkstaff isn't wrestling high school this year but if he was I'm confident he would place at D2

and very likely would place in D1. Next year we will see how he does as a 9th grader whether he is at CAK or Baylor he will be in hunt to win not just to medal.

Actions speak louder than words. He is at a school where he is eligble to wrestle as an eighth grader and choses not to. Whomever is handling him evidently figures he isn't ready and given the physical maturity of the of the top tier middle heavies I'd say they made a wise call.

 

As far as winning at 160 + as a freshman, ... well rather than spend a lot of time on the matter, and again no disrespect to the kid, just bring your checkbook. I will happily wager more than I can afford to lose it won't happen.

I'm sorry, I am a middle Tennessee guy, and we don't come across the mountains that much. I would love to know who Pinkstaff is. What weight does he wrestle, what grade is he in? I know he wrestles for CAK.

Also, during the state tournament, can you guys extend the invitation for one of your meetings. I would love to talk wrestling and peruse in the ways of our E. Tennessee brethren.(And I do not need to be accompanied by an adult)

 

Stay Tuned for info about meetings during State Tourney. In years gone by Several of middle and west Tn"s finest contributed greatly to these special annual meetings.

I thought Collins Help already had reached there scholarship limit

They get more transfers than Big Blue and Red combined

 

Really? The only kid on our varsity that didn't come up through our youth program is Allgood and he moved in this year from somewhere in Florida.

 

We do have one kid that came up through our youth program and then went to a private school for a year....his coach left and he came back.......after moving into our district.

While I do not know Mr. Pinkstaff I know of him. I do believe the tables will be turning in the next few years in the ongoing saga of McCallie vs Baylor. Look at the middle school programs and where each stands now. This is only going to lean more in the favor of the team in blue in the next few years. From what I have heard from my friends in Chattanooga involved in the kiddie wrestling it appears McCallie has been getting the upper hand the last couple of incoming classes and we already know how strong they are in the 7th and 8th grade classes. Word is this upcoming 6th class for next year has about 4 of the better Chattanooga kids coming in and possibly a 5th who is the creme de la creme of Tn kid wrestling. No matter where the 5th kid goes large #'s of good wrestlers wins over 1 or two studs everytime. If the 5th leans towards the blue then forget about it. It will be 4 years of domination once they get to high school. Too bad my team cant wrestle either school.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • 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.
