Ivey got caught? It was 2-2 going into the 2nd. Trae reversed him so it was 7-2 before he got pinned. Did u say you’d bet you’re salary that Ivey wins 106? Lol let me screen shot that post haha

This is false. It was 2-2, trae got the reversal and made it 4-2 and then caught him and pinned him at 4-2. Ivey got the first takedown. He’s legit and the only threat to trae. I’m not taking anything away from trae but Ivey did get caught. That doesn’t make it any less of a W. But Trae didn’t take it to him or win with ease. He was evenly matched and ended up getting the pin. We will see what happens next time around.

Is every pin “getting caught”? what is your definition of getting caught? First take down don’t mean much. But your exactly right, we will see what happens next time around

2-2 Trae gets reversal. 4-2, plus  3 back points before the pin made it 7-2.  Ivey is legit and he’s good. But if y’all are saying Trae got lucky and “caught” Ivey your silly

Once again, false. Trae never got near fall. The score was 4-2 at the time of the pin. If Ivey had fought off is back there would have been near fall but he didn’t, so there wasn’t. 

Nobody said ANYTHING about trae getting lucky. Please show me where anyone is calling it lucky. Saying he caught him doesn’t mean it’s luck. It means he caught him.. and that’s 100% true.  if you watched the same match I did, Trae did not outclass him. He wasn’t on another level, he didn’t dominate or win with ease, he was evenly matched. But you continue to talk like he just owned Ivey and that’s nowhere near true. These 2 will meet again. Unless someone like Calvin pulls an upset, these 2 will meet again. And it’s gonna be good.

I am sorry but I have to say a pin is a pin.  Lucky, got caught doesnt really matter it's a pin.  All this other stuff is just ridiculous.  Trae is the best 106 and i dont think he will be challenged.  Maybe he doesnt pin "whoever" makes the final verse him but he will cruise to a state championship.

If the first takedown "DON'T MEAN MUCH" then why do the statistics say that the winner of the first takedown in high school wrestling win 80+% of the time.  Just asking because I have always been told that scoring the first takedown in a big match is very important.

Where are you quoting this statistic from?  How about the statistical analysis that the guy who gets the first take down is simply a better wrestler most of the time, and that when two quality kids meet this "statistic" is no longer applicable?

I received my information from a book that was written by William Welker.  Just based on pure speculation I would say that the percentage would be even higher when two wrestlers are evenly matched.

Myles was caught but the better wrestler won just like he has the previous 5 times they wrestled.  Caught is when someone has proven that thru competition (head to head) they are very close/equals.  Not thru speculation that they are equals.  At the end of the day I believe we will see a rematch and that will be the tell all.

    • Lol! I was being a bit facetious. 
    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.
