tnmat Posted December 20, 2002 Report Share Posted December 20, 2002 I disagree with your opinion on McTorry's conditioning. Even if he wasn't in the best shape, he was at least equal to Nelson. If you had seen McTorry wrestle at senior nationals I think you would agree. Nelson was simply better in that year. (although, I believe McTorry would have beaten him a year later.

Asylamer Posted December 21, 2002 Report Share Posted December 21, 2002 Somebody you guys are forgetting about is Carlos Thompson from Cleveland. He placed 4th as a freshman, 1st as a sophmore, 2nd as a junior, 1st as senior, before the split. I definently think their are better wrestlers then him, but a 4 time state placer should still be included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumbi1031 Posted January 25, 2003 Report Share Posted January 25, 2003 Nobody has mentioned Jeff Lloyd, a one-legged state champion and national placer at 103 pounds. He would have crushed Sweeton at that weight and certainly would have given Leen or James or any of those other guys mentioned a great match with his strength. Martin Francis was way before my time, but he would probably start class on every Tennessee team ever at 98, 103, 105, or 112. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
