maligned Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 The new TOM national rankings came out today. There was some weight-class movement that has left the country with a new #1-ranked 126-pounder: Chad Red. I know people will always want to be sure to slow the "hype train" so he doesn't have too much pressure, but I think it's important to realize that these accomplishments along the way will often stand out just as much when you think back on your life as whatever mountaintop you're eventually trying to reach. This is a fantastic accomplishment that has been enjoyed by a select few from Indiana. Congratulations, Chad/CJ/Mr. Red!! rdrodd1 and BeastMode#31 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruschi Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Who are some of the other wrestlers over the years that have been number 1 in the nation? Micic, J. Tsirtsis, Sliga?, Howe, A Tsirtsis?, Escobedo, Larimore, Coughlin, Im sure there were some others and I could see Nick Lee there in a year or two. Congrats to Red great accomplishment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2CJ41 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Congrats to Chad, I believe Flo has moved him to #1 also. Sliga was never #1 and most rankings didn't even have Howe #1 either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdrodd1 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Congrats to Chad, I believe Flo has moved him to #1 also. Sliga was never #1 and most rankings didn't even have Howe #1 either Flo does have him at number 1 as well and I swear that I seen him at number 1 in another ranking earlier today.

Caleb Spires Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Congrats to Chad, I believe Flo has moved him to #1 also. Sliga was never #1 and most rankings didn't even have Howe #1 either Flo had Sliga at #1 for a very short time before he got upset at Fargo.

Youngson7325 Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 At Middle School State Chad Red beat Griffin Schermer in the first match of the day. Then they faced again and Griffin beat him so, he was beat twice at Middle School state, and it may have been sinkovics who also beat him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
