But can they compete with teams such as Blair or WS?

With them literally recruiting everyone on thier team except 2-3 kids, you would think they should be able to, right?

That's a great point. Ive always said "UTC recruits football players and Alabama recruits football players, they should be equal, right".

That's a good question RK. Apparently you believe Mrs. Manson needs to take it up a notch. I'll have that discussion next time I see her.

Not a single person has made that claim, Rasslinking.   They probably would not be favored to win a single match. If fact, it's probably unlikely any kid in TN would be favored.  McCallie(2), CBHS(1),

Whether they can or can't really isn't the issue. What is important is they are actually willing to go and attempt to step on the mat with the best in the country.

If fact, it's probably unlikely any kid in TN would be favored.  McCallie(2), CBHS(1), Baylor(2), and FR(2) all have kids that wrestled for other high schools.  I think you are over overreacting.

Perhaps a TN team should try to get ranked in the top 50 before beating the best two teams in the country.

If you were hired at McCallie as the head coach, and they didn't have an elementary school, where would you get all of you wrestlers?  You know that kids are not zoned to go to private schools, correct? Would you talk a bunch of 8th graders out for wrestling and win the state a couple years later?

My point is Baylor and McCallie are very supportive towards wrestling. The kids they are bringing in aren’t national level (top 20 in country) except Harper, Howard, possibly Horst and Dendy. If your going to recruit an entire team(Baylor) , I would think they would search outside of only GA. When you have Mrs Manson that will get in ANY athlete you want.....I would think they would look outside of “minions”.  What kid has gone there and improved as a wrestler? Those kids were better being coached by Dendy.

PS. I think McCallie is in the middle, attempting to create a foundation that doesn’t rely on a strong recruiting class.

Ding ding ding..... if they can get anyone they want, are they really doing a good job recruiting?

      OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.

      They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that.

      The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.

      I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
