fc215 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 How many times will this make that Harvey has started the season ranked #1 at a weight class and not won? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2CJ41 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I do not believe he has ever started the season ranked #1 until this season. Last year Ethan Raley was #1 at 130lbs to start the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fc215 Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 I thought that he was last year? If not, my bad. He has been ranked #1 a couple of times though at some point in the season, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2CJ41 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 He was ranked #1 for probably most of the season last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fc215 Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Oh ok, thanks for the correction. Just never really been impressed with him enough to believe he is a #1 kid... Any others who agree or disagree? If so explain why... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimtown 138 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Oh ok, thanks for the correction. Just never really been impressed with him enough to believe he is a #1 kid...

WC182Dad Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Harvey is a trooper I have seen his mom tape his face up to where he could just see to stop the bleeding and he came back to beat a very tough wrestler Harvey should have the respect of all wrestlers.

Any others who agree or disagree? If so explain why... Umm, he is a three-time state placer while moving up significantly in weight. He is definitely a very good wrestler when you can adjust to different weight classes like he has. He started out at 103lbs and will be wrestling 152 or 160 this year and probably be a top three wrestler at either weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maligned Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Indiana's not quite at the point yet where we've got potential national champions ranked #1 at every weight class. Harvey's no different from hundreds of very good wrestlers before him that are deserving of the #1 rank in a weight class where there's no significant favorite. He wasn't undeserving of his rank last year either. He got upset. Upsets happen. In hindsight, Molloy was obviously #1, but it was difficult to gauge how much Molloy had improved. Looking back, it's easy to say Harvey was overrated; but he had certainly done enough previously to deserve being #1 over all the other candidates. This year is the same. He might not win it all, but he's definitely got the credentials to be #1 ahead of the other candidates at his weight. We'll see what happens.

fc215 Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 There have been other opinions posted on here much more negative than that and noone has said anything. Just to say you are not that impressed with someone is classless? Never said he wasn't good!!! Just not sure he is #1 thats all. Wouldn't you think moving up that much weight would make it more difficult, especially when you didnt finish in the top 3 of the weight you were in last year. Please someone correct me if i am wrong. Again, not saying the kid isn't good or that I do not like him. Just an opinion.. Last time I checked, I was free to have one of those. Like to have good debates.

fc215 Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Good point Maligned. All I was trying to do was get other peoples opinions. Did not mean this to be classless, nor do I think it was.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WC182Dad Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Dont feel picked on just look at my boo points(: He is a tough young man #1? If he goes 60 gotta take Johnson. 52 he has a great shot I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimtown 138 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Picked on? I say if you come on here and rag on a kid, you better be pretty tactful or someone will say something. If you're young and maybe just out of high school (without your own children), I can see it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justadadnow Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 fc215, I think it was the wording you used. Maybe saying you didn't think he was a #1 wrestler might have been better than #1 kid. He most definately is a #1 yiung man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingo Brigade Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I think Harvey was right there with the best in his weight class last year, but he seemed to wear down a little at the end of the year. Each round of the postseason, he seemed to be a little bit less explosive and struggled a little bit with stamina. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a weight issue, as his huge leap in weight class coming into this season seems to suggest. Harvey is very, very good and a state title is not out of the question by any means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fc215 Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Im not quite sure that I ragged on the kid. I simply said I was not that impressed to make him #1. I never said I did not like the kid, I never said that he was not any good. I have never nor would I ever get on here and tear a kid apart. What part of sayning you are not that impressed is untactfull? Pease explain! He is a good wrestler, I just feel that there are kids who may be better.

What part of sayning you are not that impressed is untactfull? When you call a kid out in the heading of a post, then say he shouldn't be ranked number one because he never won the championship, and lastly say that you've never been impressed with him. So who should be ranked number one at 152? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
