rampagejackson Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Let’s get some discussion started about potential finals match ups. In no particular order: Bowers vs. Hicks I believe Hicks is 2-1 vs. Bowers and both guys should be fat and happy by the time the finals roll around. Hicks appeared to fade coming off the 1-hour weigh-in, but looked great this past weekend. This freshmen is the real deal. Landers vs. McElhaney Will Landers stay down at 26? I see Landers winning a very controlled match. Whitworth vs. Simpson Unlikely, but it would be great. Whitworth spent plenty of time at 113 with a lot of success. Will he move up to take on the champ? Duhm vs Whimper Could this be one of the most top-heavy weights in recent memory? Tommy Bracket is a Fargo champ and will have to have an upset to make the finals. I saw that Duhm went down to 170, but is now back 182 post-injury. My source tells Whimper was going down to 170 to wrestle him, but will now stay at 82 as well. Let's hope this one pans out. Boykin vs Kramer Can Kramer knock off the champ? Boykin may be the most accomplished TN high school wrestler in years. Any idea where he is headed for college? It seems that there are 10 good heavyweights in TN this year. Maybe the deepest weight class if you were to combine all 3 divisions. - Rampage Jackson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facenthecrowd Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Boykin is going to UTC according to what I am hearing and wrestling with his brother. I hear that is a reason why the older Boykin red-shirted this year. He wanted to wrestler with his brother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrisketTaco Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Boykin will eat Kramers lunch I don't think so. Boykin will likely win, but I won't be surprised if Kramer beats him. Kramer is the bigger of the two and surprising very athletic for a boy his size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bump11 Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 I heard Boykin is going to Colorado to train at the OTC after graduation. Maybe just an off-season thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaChampsAgain Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 I don't think so. Boykin will likely win, but I won't be surprised if Kramer beats him. Kramer is the bigger of the two and surprising very athletic for a boy his size. That was a good match last year. Kramer had Boykin on his back for a sec or 2. I still remember the oh arena was lik3 "ahhhhh". Thought it was gonna be an upset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbg Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Thoughts: 1. Whimper will go 170 because he wants to do well at the national preps 2. Duhm will be at 182 3. Look for Brackett to make the move to 195 4. After getting pinned Whitworth will be at 106 5. With Nicholson being injured I could see Dendy or Reiniche moving to 160. Even if he wrestles it will be difficult on Ncholson to overcome a dislocated elbow in just 2 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZN Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 If dendy or Reiniche move to 60 they are looking for the easy way out. I hope both wrestlers stay at 52 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty reasons for redshirting from what I was told had nothing to do with his brother. I really don't think Nick will be going to UTC at all and they already have a heavyweight committed in this class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
