No Bradley? TN High? Heritage?

Bradley graduated 7 - they return 3 placers -- I could see them back in the top 10 but I'm going to go out on a limb and be the voice of minority.  I think a rebuilding year.

TN High graduated 6 - they return 1 placer.  Looks like a rebuilding year here also.

Heritage still has work to do to prove they are a top 10 team.  They return 2 placers but no one else I see to speak of.

Last year was supposed to be a "rebuilding year" for Cleveland. We saw how that turned out. NEVER count out Ben and the Bears. I don't care how many they graduate I'd personally still put them right there in the top ten.

Bradley is a top 10 team right now. I don't care who or how many they graduated. I'm pretty sure the now cliché phrase, " they don't rebuild, they reload " originated to describe Bradley. Heritage is not a top 10 team and I think it a stretch to include TN high as one.

FYI, the phrase "They don't rebuild they reload" was referring to the University of Kentucky basketball program during the 1996-97 season.  You can rest assured that it had absolutely nothing to do with the Bradley Central or any other wrestling program.

Bradley will be solid this year but not like the recent Bradley teams. They have some pretty good kids at their upper weights and Devaney down low. After this year is when they will have some work to do.

That might be but the phrase has been well used to describe Bradley wrestling and with good reason.

    • Did this happen? Does anyone know? Ripley has their HC job posted on the bulletin board over the weekend.
    • Coalfield definitely isn't the same team they've had the past few years. They are still the favorites to make it out of their region because of their pitching. They have 1 arm that sits low to mid 80s and 2 other arms that are mid to high 70s with good off speed stuff. If you can avoid their top 3 bats in their lineup then you have a shot to beat them. Their 4-9 hitters are average at best. Wartburg's ace was able to shut them down last week in the game Wartburg won 4-2. 
    • It is the longest season. Plus, 30 games a year. No Christmas break. I would say basketball is the most time consuming. 
    • No movement on Chester? South Gibson? Gibson County?
    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
