The toughest guy i ever wrestled was Derek Delporto, the assistant coach from Oklahoma. He looks like Vin Diesel, except bigger and stronger. In fact, he gave me the nick name, Sven Diesel. I also wrestled Jared Frayer, NCAA runner-up last year and Josh Lambrecht, also and NCAA runner-up. I wrestled these guys at a wrestling camp in Seymour over the summer. The camp very helpful and a lot of fun. I've also wrestled my dad, who went to Georgia Tech on a wrestling Scholarship and ws a High School All-Anerican and Georgia State Champ.

Quimbe if you thought Floyd was tough from Centennial then you have to have alittle respect for Matt Sweeton from Tullahoma. Matt was a 3 time State Champ (Fr,Jr, and Sr year), and was 4th as a soph. If I am not mistaken Matt beat Floyd in the state finals, and if I am wrong then John Welsh from Tullahoma beat him in the finals. Sweeton was one of the toughest wrestlers I have ever seen. Don't get me wrong there are many great wrestlers out there who deserves credit also.

Sweeton was good, but I never had a chance to wrestle him. He did beat Floyd in the finals in 98. Floyd beat Welsh in 99 and Welsh beat me in 00. As far as it goes, I have also wrestled some all-americans from Colorado and Arizona, but since I don't know their names and probably nobody else around here would know who I'm talking about, I didn't mention them.

    • I have no idea who your team is, but Memphis and other Shelby Co. schools have hardly made a dent, if you’re talking Game 15 appearances. Outside of a couple by Whitehaven, I can’t recall the last team in a final. 
    • Robbed you guy at a chance of 3 state championships. You never kne,sond best team in the west my have beat you also,but you sure deserved the chance to play um.
    • Eagleville also loses Brown the catcher, Lamb CF, Mclemore RF (Heck of an athlete) and Drew the 1st baseman. They will be young. 
    • Good thing we aren’t in Florida then huh? It would benefit a ton of the smaller schools  that don’t have the pools of kids to choose from! They should start by policing Shelby County like they do the rest of the state! Something has to change though and TSSAA knows that! 
    • Correct, you can whimsically be fired in coaching. A coach that has tenure can stay on as a teacher if released from coaching. If you don’t have tenure as a teacher, you can fired without cause. Your last year as a teacher before tenure is earned you can be fired, but must be given cause. A tenured teacher can be fired, but it is a long hard process requiring the 3 D’s…. documentation, documentation and documentation. I have released 3 tenured teachers, 2 with PHD’s. However, teacher contracts had and still have clauses that state you can be fired for a variety reasons re: being arrested, public drunkenness, inappropriate relationships ect.
