DII duals predictions

I don't think Schoettle will make it the full 6, whether he goes down by pin or tech. I don't think Mondelli would have as much of a chance as Clarke. Remember, I am not taking into account the fact that either of the coaches could do some bumping. I mostly took Baylor's line up from the McCallie match, but it seems like the most likely thing. I would like to see the Manson/Oddo match, though. I think it's Ryan's job to do the bumping that would be necessary to win. It will be a good dual.

Based on the surprising outcome of the "last dual", I'll have to suggest, you're right... on paper. But I felt then and I still feel Baylor has a better dual meet team and will make things interesting. I see some of those close matches going Baylor's way this time and there in lies a point swing enough to put the red on top.

 

What's more important is what Jim has instilled in the hearts of his team. The assignments fulfilled and Baylor wins...

 

At this level of wrestling you can throw away skill and head to head comparison's, it's all about "who wants it most and will not fail their assigned mission."

 

Good luck to both programs!!

 

Ryan may get the tournament!! Gosh, Irishdad has been quiet lately. Hope he's okay?

cb56,

 

You know who I am. We talked last weekend at the regional duals. I am a coach at Saint Benedict. That should tell you enough to narrow it down to three. Let's see if you pay attention to who you taked to :D . If you can't get it from that then I will tell you since it is not fair for me to know who you are and not return the favor.

Soms - Other then your ongoing quest to put a person with every screen name, I usually agree with most of your points however;

 

"At this level of wrestling you can throw away skill and head to head comparison's, it's all about "who wants it most and will not fail their assigned mission."

 

is a pretty weak gameplan in which to place your hopes of victory. Coaches/wrestlers sure spend a lot of time developing skills for them to be thrown out at crunch time. You've still not supported your assertation of a Baylor victory with anything tangable. Good luck to Baylor if the only thing they will have changed from the prior meeting is to "want it more". Somehow, I think Shak, Yogi, and Morgan will have something more substantial for there wrestlers to use.

Key: At this level of wrestling... Attitude will win!!

 

Ask Dan Gable or even legman if the top contenders don't remain on top as a result of attitude. Am I wrong?

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • 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.
