What will be your toughest games besides meigs and sequatchie ?

I would say Meigs will be the best team SP faces. After them I would say Red Bank, Sequatchie, and Whitwell. I will throw Marion County in there because of the rivalry.

Let me ask you a question. Who is Grider playing in our spring training game? I garuntee you our boys better be ready for it.  You think im joking but im not. 

I was told during the Cornbread Festival last week that SP won’t be having one this season. Maybe someone else can confirm.

Barney your joking. Grider is being lazy.  Our boys need to play a spring training game so they will be ready for the season.  This is a bunch of mess. You think im joking but im not.

We expect to win but the road to success is always tough.  

SP always expects to win. The one thing our group learned the last time we played y’all was that’s the level we had to get to. GB, Huntingdon and Lake Co all are solid teams but SP will always be the measuring stick due to the longevity of their success. Our senior group has always said that SP game 3 years ago was a big part of their success the last 2 years. 

Look for SP back at dance this year

Watching your bunch 3 years ago as a group of young kids learning the ropes, my brother and I could clearly see the talent that was there. I distinctly remember us saying that group will be special the next couple years and that proved to be the case. Good luck this upcoming year.

I was talking to this man today and he said that Sanders boy was over there playing baseball and broke his shoulder and had to have surgery.  What is Grider thinking? This is a bunch of mess.  Grider will have to go to the single wing now since our passer is out.  He will have to put that kicker in their as a extra hole nocker and direct snap it to that Tipton boy.  Grider should not have let that Sanders boy play baseball.  You think im joking but im not.

Modern medicine Roy.  Maybe you should get a new butt doctor that uses modern small cameras rather than the size of a vhs style camcorder.

    • 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.        
    • If you think McKenzie could've beat Riverside I have a bridge you might like to buy. 
    • Hate to hear Ricky is heading to the old folk's home!
    • By recruiting, I mean members of a coaching staff are talking to, meeting with, giving tours, to students, and their guardians, that are not zoned for their school.    there’s no way that many non Bearden kids just showed up all at once without being recruited. It can’t be a coincidence that all those kids also went through the middle school all star game your boss puts on every year.
