Any idea what team(s) will Meigs scrimmage next month??

I sure don't, I'm out of the loop since my stepson graduated. Last year we scrimmaged Kingston and Loudon. I think we already scrimmaged Oliver Spring as school let out.

Jasper could develop into a decent team by the end of the season if they don't disintegrate following a couple of key games during the season. 

I'd imagine if they hang any with Tyner they will be an improved team.

I believe they will have a decent team this season. They will be improved this year. They won’t remotely play with Tyner. They could easily be 3-0 when SP comes to town game 4. 

SP, Tyner, Rhea County should be losses.

They should beat Fayetteville, Polk, Bledsoe, Tellico, Silverdale, and Walker Valley

 

Sequatchie is a tossup but could be a win. With some good luck they could go 7-3, but that’s the ceiling.

I think they win 4-5 at max. They have a couple backs but unless that line has improved it will be a long year again.

It would surprise me if they beat Sequatchie.

That’s why I said 7-3 IF they get some luck. They play 5-6 BAD teams. They should be able to win 5-6 games. One thing I am confident of is they will be 1-0 with a win over an 0-10 team from last season.

This is true, but we all play 5 or 6 BAD teams in the regular season. We're just looking for that 1st win. Don't know anything about Fayetteville except they return 18 starters.

    • 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.
