McCallie is down and has been down for a number of years.  Unless someone forces The McCallie School,  Board of Trust to change their philosophy I don’t see McCallie getting back to their glory days in the near future.  

Baylor has adopted the philosophy that even though they have a middle school they are showing no signs of developing talent.  It appears as if they will continue to recruit enough talent to fill all of their holes.  

I had heard that Baylor brought in Edward Holland to run their club, who I have been told is a heck of a good coach. I believe he worked at McDonogh in Maryland where he trained a ton of kids that are currently in the division one ranks. To me it looks like they are going to develop internally and bring top talent in. Some of the coaches up north seem to think they could be the Blair or Sem of the south. Will be interesting to see what happens. I watched their head coach wrestle for Michigan State, he was a Stud in College.

Maybe, but just when you get your hopes up on TN wrestling we always find a way to disappoint. Cautiously optimistic.

It’s much more difficult to develop talent than it is to recruit kids that are already very good wrestlers.  I will believe that Baylor will stop recruiting and begin developing talent when I see it with my own eyes.  How many state champions has Baylor had that competed for the Baylor middle school team as 7th & 8th graders in the past 15 years?

Don’t see how…. 

 

If a student with an athletic record transfers to a new school where an “athletic coaching link” existed in the past 12 months, that student is ineligible for 12 months past their first date of enrollment at the new school at all levels in the specific sports where a linkage was present. Links may include (1) attendance at an individual camp (and then transferring); (2) playing on non-school (independent) teams (and then transferring to that coach’s school); (3) transferring into a school where a former coach has been hired; and (4) transferring to a school where a former or current personal trainer or strength and conditioning coach is employed

You'd think that Holland leaving Heritage to go to Baylor with him would make him ineligible. 

 

But as we all know, things run differently in Chattanooga.

Recruiting in our sport will continue happen as long as nobody turns teams in on it. I notice it all the time when kids wrestle on these summer dual teams and then end up at that coaches school.  

So do you turn in these teams you see doing this all the time?

I remember when Colby Dalon left Pigeon Forge for Lakeway (the 20-21 season).  I thought there was no way he would sit out, but he did.  Props to him for taking the hit and following the rules.  Personally I think kids should go where they want without penalty when it comes to public to private transfers but I also understand why the rule exists and the sport of wrestling isn't responsible.

Athletes that transfer to a “BOARDING SCHOOL” are immediately eligible even if they have established an athletic record.  Baylor, Lakeway, McCallie, The Webb School and Saint Andrews Sewanee are all boarding schools.  The rule probably needs to be re-examined

Just to be clear I am at Baylor this year to run the club and Girls wrestling program. I am in no way apart of the boys coaching staff. Most don’t understand because they are selfish but I’m willing to step to the side to give athletes better opportunities for themselves to achieve the goals they want. If anyone would like to question the “coaching link” I will gladly show the email from Mark Reeves that I have that tell me exactly what I’m allowed to do and not allowed to do this year

    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
