hahaha... monks. you rock somethingclever!

 

The robes are a way to get guys on the mats at Overton. For the first time in a while, they've had trouble getting people out for the team, so it has taken extra efforts to get certain guys to join the team. My opinion is that the robes are good for Overton's wrestlers and good for their team. I don't think the idea is to be flashy or gaudy, but to excite some of the kids. They like it... and if they like it, then I like it for them.

 

P.S. - Someone posted that the 103, 112,119, 130, and 135 could all place. I agree, but I wouldn't take out the 125. Josh Jennings is a hard worker and took it hard to Dillon, who is a very high-caliber wrestler.

There once was a fable about an emperor who was tricked by his tailor in to parading through the streets in the nude. The tailor said that only the "cool" could see the clothes and when asked if he saw how they looked the emperor said that the clothes looked cool. He then proceeded to parade through the streets and was the recipient of many compliments until finally a small child called out loudly that the emperor has on no clothes , whereupon the emperor became embarrassed and fled. Maybe the coach at Overton is the new version of the emperors tailor and only the "uncool" can't see the coolness of the robes. If they like them I suppose it is ok, but if that is the trick that it takes to get good wrestlers out then this trick will be short lived.

I think that mostly any overton wrestlers have a good chance at placing. Drinkwine at 135 or 140. Brewster i think is as good as his bro if not better. I was at an overton practice at fra and i lost 6 lbs and coach gabe is a great coach. David Scott is very under rated. He is good. I have wrestled drinkwine and i know the whole family and i no im in 8th grade but he is amazing he wrestld our 145 and took him to the mat it looked easy. The robes at so pimp tigh i say give me one. That shows how good their program is they can get those.

    • 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.
