Kenwood Tournament

OK, just to say it and get it out of the way. But, it seems that some of the same teams that were there at Kenwood last year and complained, are again some of the same ones who were there this year, and complained. I am only questioning that if you weren't happy about the outcome last year, and you aren't happy with it this year, why in the world would you come back next year? :lol: (Please note, I am only making an observation on the negative comments, not the tournament. It was a tournament with top-notch talent. I enjoyed it.)

Well, dragonwrestler is obviously a wrestler. He doesn't have the power to choose where his team wrestles.

Dragonwrestler quote

"where the official began counting backpoints with less than 3 seconds in the match and the buzzer sounded almost immediately after he had 2 seconds counted, my opponent was awarded 2 backpoints for a 3 count that never happened."

 

Dragonwrestler, you stated the referee reached a two count but never got to a three count for the nearfall, but the other wrestler was awarded two back points anyway. The rule is that it only takes a two count to get two nearfall and a five count to get three nearfall. The call was correct. I know that you are only a wrestler frustrated about a call, but please learn the rules of the game before criticizing referees who are doing their best.

After you graduate I'm sure that we would all be more than happy if you put on the zebra stripes and gave it a try. If that is not soon enough for you, I invite you to try officiating freestyle in the spring. You should know who I am and where to find me.

My apologies, I must don't know why I thought it took 3 seconds for 2 near fall, BUT still does not explain how I can get hit with stalling when I am the one working for the takedown. Where the stalling point eventually cost me the match, and my team the diffrence between 3rd and 2nd place. Don't worry though, I'll quit "lingering" on the topic, and JustWrestle, No...we did not go to Kenwood last year.

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
