How’d the bros finish in Kansas City? Baylor had 2 out with the flu and half the team sick... and still pounded Christian Bros... just saying. 

How is it they “pounded” CBHS? Oh and the Bros were without 2 of their starters. But like I said, that stuff happens. There was only one head to head match up this weekend between the two teams. So I’m not sure how the Bros got pounded by Baylor.

Lol, would love to see who those two wrestlers are and if it could have been as big of an impact like Dendy and Harper ranked number 1 in the state.  Needless to say it will be a great state dual and state championship!

Just got to look if you want to see, and not saying if they would or wouldn't. Just pointing out that missing starters is part of the game. So bringing it up every time doesn't change the score any. Baylor did great, and glad to see TN wrestling getting better and better.

WAIT, so it's what someone thinks their line up might be, and not what it is? Look, if a college team is missing people and lose, they drop in the rankings. Why is this any different? This kills me, if and when they get their "full" team back, and win, that's when they should move back up. What if they NEVER get their "full" team back?

Its the same issue as individual rankings. Ranking kids where you THINK they might end up, but they haven't ever wrestled there. I get the preseason rankings doing that, but once the season starts is should be only about what you are doing at that moment in time.

This is what you said last week. This week it was a 48 point Baylor over Christian Brothers and if it was CBHS missing 2 and Baylor missing 2 also, we actually saw more close to what Baylor does against CBHS since everyone wants to make where individual tournament finishes have a bearing on best teams! Point is they really don't make a difference on the best team, especially since th beet team is proven head2head in a dual!

And my ssecond thought

Not sure why ANYONE would use flo arena for anything. Absolutely the worst results page I have seen and pretty much useless! Has wrestlers finishing 1st but yet they lost in the finals and got second, some teams have 16-17 wrestlers on the results while others 14. Absolutely a terrible way of doing something and pretty much worthless when wanting to see actual results. I hope they pay the tournaments good money for running their junk!

Yeah flo sucks to follow along with. Made it really hard to determine anything.

Not sure why flo has to suck so bad. They could still be their own and just somewhat get closer to how track does things. Also I do wish that the other poster that said team scores from last year were correct on track and not flo could post that because I can see that happening since Flo's team scores make no sense at all on how it is scored and so I can see the Track score from last year he posted as correct compared to the flo one that was posted.

 

Also, I can't wait to see those two head 2head. Individual tourneys mean nothing to me on determining best team because of how seeds are drawn and everything else that can happen. CBHS I do think has plenty for Baylor in best of the best this year.

I’m really not sure where track would have anything. We have  to hand key in everything from this tournament for team stuff. But not team scores. Since flo is what the tournament uses. I would assume it had to be correct. I know they announced the same team scores that flo has. So my guess is that someone keyed it in correctly to track.

I am not so sure on that. Seems by looking at how they put the scores together they are counting first place winners with same points as someone that won first in the other division which I don’t think is very fair, or maybe I am looking at it wrong because their sites sucks not real sure. But I also see it hard to get 600 plus points at a tournament if scored correctly with 40 teams while Beast had more teams and scores not even close to 600 plus.

Well, some tournaments score slightly different. The scoring method that KCI says they use is below, but in doing the math, I really can't get it to add up exactly. So still looking if it's something I missed, or flo is just off. (HOPEFULLY, it's my mistake, could be bad if it's Flo's)

PW, I thought you must have had a typo in the scoring with the QUARTERS carrying so much weight so I looked it up for myself. To my surprise, it looks like an exact copy and paste straight from the Stampede website. Surely this is a typo. If not, can someone please explain to me the reasoning behind this bc I'm not smart enough to figure this backward eff'd up scoring system out for myself.

Yup, I'm too lazy to type all that :)

Maybe it's because they value placing at this tournament, so by winning the quarters you guarantee placing top 4

    • 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.
