How long has it been since Bradley missed state duals?

Ben Smith killed that program. His lack of commitment to the program was amazing what we were told. Too busy trying to have a family for years. A lot of trips. Abandoned the team on out of season tournaments. Goes on and on. Of course that is what we heard, but we are also 2 hours away. May all be false. 

Imagine being mad at someone for “trying to have a family”.

 

maybe you shouldn’t post what you heard and stick to what you know.

You’re straight delusional. Being an assistant for that program I can assure you that you are way off. Ben worked tirelessly for that program. I mean four titles at the helm? Man, most coaches would be happy with one and he won four? But go ahead and think your shallow ways.

As a wrestling dad that helps coach part time I can tell you that wrestling parents can be the absolute best but they can also be the absolute worst of the worst to deal with.  If the kid fails,  it's because you didn't teach them a secret move.  Or an easy move that anyone can do.  Or , or, or...

See post by Justafanof for evidence.

The lack of commitment to the youth is why they are where they are now. And now they wanna get ruffled when others are calling them out. If you want to make Bradley somewhat relevant again, get out there and bust #### and build the youth program up! It would be sad to see a Bradley vs HCWC K-8 dual. It would be worse than Thursday night. 
 

You have to have someone like Bosken that pours their heart into it and make kids wanna leave Bradley to come wrestle for HIM. Trust me, it’s happening more and more. I want the “pride” coach/coaches to get it together and make it fun again as a rival. Because right now as you can see in the stands Thursday night, it’s not worth the price of admission for Bear fans.

Haha not “ruffled” not even. But obviously you are new to all of this? Look at the history of Cleveland. There were folks like myself there way before Knox and Bosken. But that’s the problem with HCWC as well as the middle/high school parents they don’t do diligent research of the history of their programs. Like I said alum of Cleveland. My name is on that wall. My pics are all over the Jones. Tbh I wish they’d take my name down as well as my pics. Folks like yourself make it embarrassing to be a part of that program. You live vicariously through your kid(s). And that is fine. But when you get off topic and start bashing a club or even another school? C’mon man. I don’t see you going after another club or school in this town? But folks like yourself go after Bradley as well as their coaching staff both past and present? Look, honestly you wouldn’t go talk myself I or any of the above mentioned. You just wanna come on here and do it? You can tell you are new to this sport and more than likely this town.

Lived here all of my life and actually graduated from Bradley. lol

 why would I not talk to anyone about the way I feel and see? I’m at the JC almost everyday! I can promise, your pic isn’t all over the JC. But like I said earlier, it’s a shame that nobody has tried or put much effort into the kids club. WV is the only other school in this town and they have never had tradition or a rival to Cleveland imo.

Not bashing you but before Bosken and Knox, kids wasn’t flocking to come to Cleveland. So that being said, what they have done and doing is elite. No? Look at the other side of town and it’s pretty evident

    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
    • I'm from Cloudland and we've never played a sectional game.  We need to win tomorrow night to avoid that bus ride.  Us and north greene can play with you guys so I'm expecting good games whoever the matchup is.
