What happened to all our college wrestlers?

I noticed a bunch of our natives are no longer listed on college rosters. What happened to all of them? Heres a few I noticed were missing, maybe someone could help me out here...

 

Kaleb Baker -- Not at ASU anymore, I heard he may be at Chatt but hes not listed on their roster either.

 

Michael Hooker -- I know he joined the Army, does anybody know if hes going to be wrestling for them? He had the returning Olympic Trials champ beat last summer and got screwed out of it.

 

TJ Duncan -- Went to Maryland then transfered and won a National Title at Shorter University, but what happened after that?

 

 

Im sure there are others but I was sitting back wondering what happened with some of our top athletes. Anybody know?

Hooker is training with the Army for international competitions and I'm sure he will do very well. Not sure about the others. I was unaware that Duncan won a National Championship for Shorter. What year and what weight?

 

Most who sign on to wrestle in college don't make it. It aint easy.

Alex Manley:  133@ Stanford, The Baylor School

Cole Moseley:  149@ American University, Father Ryan

Zach Watson:  133@ University of Virginia, The Baylor School

Mark Marchetti:  149@ United States Military Academy, Father Ryan

Collin McNally:  125@ Western Colorado State University, Father Ryan

Adam Connell:  United States Naval Academy Prep School, The McCallie School

Michael Hooker:  Training Greco Roman with US All Army Team in Colorado, Father Ryan

John Hagey:  174@ Air Force Academy, Father Ryan

Michael Eckhart:  157 @American University, Father Ryan

 

It's most apparent that these wrestlers received a strong academic base which gave them multiple options when they were selecting colleges.

There are a bunch of our boys at King still competing also. Cody Davis (PF), Jon Boatman (Greeneville), Blaike Henry (Soddy), Andrew Armstrong (Sullivan S), Josh Spangler (TN High), Jeremy and Jackie Miller (Greenback).

 

Cullen King (Cordova) and Justin Cash (Brentwood) are also on the roster, but I believe they are done now. Cullen had a solid season there. Cash was just there briefly.

    • 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.
