If History is any indication ( and it usually is ) Region 1 would have to have a " loaded team " to get to the 3rd round. Hampton has made it to the semis 4 times. That seems to be the barrier in our conference.

You guys have had a couple seasons lately were i thought you had a legit shot at going to Cookeville.

2016 was the most talented team we have ever had, and I say that as someone who graduated in '98 when we went 10-0 and to the 3rd round. It would have been nice to have had that AE game at home but man those guys were good too. That was one heck of a game against them.

Greeneville's starting center ( a kid named Dyer ) is transferring to South Greene.

It's Devin Dye.  His Older sister was a really good basketball and volleyball player for South Greene from 05-09 and ended up starting for Carson Newman in Basketball.  He started the last 2 years at center for the Devils so South Greene's Line will definitely get a big boost at 6ft 290 lbs and can move people around.

Did Greeneville get a new one?

No Greeneville didn't get a new one.  Him and one of the starting DL got into it so he decided to transfer to South Greene.  He grew up playing for  Nolichucky (Feeder school for South Greene) and got into the City School system going into his Freshman year.  I couldn't believe he even came to Greeneville with how die hard his family is when it comes to South Greene (His mother started on some State Championship Basketball teams for South Greene, Older Sister was a great basketball player there, and his younger Step Sister currently plays for South Greene)

I've never seen kids get eligible right away for leaving because they cant get along with other kids on the team. I'm not trying to be mean and if the transfer was going the other way you know Greeneville would make it work. I'm just saying the young man may be making a mistake if he thinks its easy to just change schools and get eligible right away.

I haven't either.  I don't know the whole situation but i would be pretty sure knowing his parents they have talked to the TSSAA or had South Greene call and go over everything with them.  I don't know if it's a situation where they got into a conflict and the Greeneville City School System wouldn't let him renew his tuition (This happened when I played our QB who started all 4 years when he got into a fight and his parents had to move into the City limits for him to play even though he has always been in the city school system since Kindergarten  or he would have had to go to Chuckey-Doak).  His parents are also divorced so it could be a change of residence.  Just speculation but i had heard he was transfer to SG before GoWarriors said anything about it

He cant unless he has a valid change of address.Look up the mess Powell got into last year.We have had a few transfers at GB lately and they have to move PERIOD!

Not only a loaded team but a team that stays healthy. A loaded team around here means the "load" is always on the filed and none standing on the sidelines....We've had that loaded team a few times and injury grounded us...Seen it happen in season and playoff games

I hated to see Coby get hurt.  He's a fine young man

    • 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.
