I thought the officiating was above average and consistent, all weekend.

My only complaint with them is their consistent inability to call stalling.

It was horrible.

I don’t want to call out teams...and I know that “selective stalling” is crucial in Duals, and a dual tournament.....but, there is a team that has 5 exceptional kids and 9 decent kids....those other kids do an outstanding job at selectively Wrestling. If the refs don’t make those kids wrestle it makes for a very frustrating match, as a spectator...and a wrestler.

Watching match after match of backing up to edge from neutral, and Wrestling balled up and flat on their stomach for minute after minute, match after match is just horrible.

i get it...if I’m their coach...in a dual tourney...I tell them to do the same thing, until the ref makes you wrestle.....alas, the refs just let it go....dual after dual.

That said....the officiating gets a solid B from me.

I thought the officiating suxed   especially the bald guy who looked like the gay cop in wild hogs movie who had a million false starts because he was trying to trick wrestlers on when he was starting  

 I'm pretty sure the official that you are referring to is me.  I can assure you that I would not bait wrestlers for a false start.  Normally I do not respond to message boards but in your case I had to make an exception. Your post was so funny!  Classically hilarious. A literally think I laughed for a minute straight!  

P.s.

Suxed is correctly spelled sucked.

Just fyi

Since you popped up....can I ask if you find “stalling” to be the toughest call to make?

I understand scrambles on the edge can really be a close call....but it seems “stalling” is always so obvious to the fans that want it called.

I would love to hear your thought process when reffing, and trying to decide when the bottom man is stalling vs when he is simply being overpowered by the man on top.

Thanks, if you have the time.

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
