Jonah, contrary to popular belief high school student athletes ALSO have wrestling seasons. @blueandgold posted individual results from Indiana natives during their HS campaign, per his question. I, on the other hand, did not follow that rule, however, I admitted my fault and wanted to further the conversation to elicit more responses from other folks here to talk about wrestling. I hope I answered your question. Yes it is a high school forum. You’re doing excellent. Do you have any thoughts on the topic at hand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candidly, not sure where you are going with this and thanks for pointing out the obvious that high school students also have seasons. You asked a question and I gave you an answer. You don’t like the answer… then don’t ask the question. I do have thoughts but will choose to share in another forum. I may be “excellent “ but not as good as you. One day I will be as good as you but until then, I will just keep posting my thoughts to the right forum and not getting upset when folks provide answers to my questions when the answer is obvious… congratulations you win the day!

Your tone in the initial response was the reason for my snarky response, also the fact that I wasn’t talking to you is another reason. Do you often find yourself butting into conversations and activities that you’re not a part of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, you don’t like the answer than don’t ask the question. I will say I’m enjoying these conversations … I can’t help but think of a quote by Mark Twain… it is better to be thought of as a fool than to open your mouth and reveal all doubt… keep talking… this is great stuff!!!

ILUV2PIN Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I remember Jarred Brooks had a killer final year. State champ and Super 32 Champ beating Nathan Tomaselo. Not many of our Indiana guys have been able to pull that one off. Yotti4, MUSKEEWRESTLER, Joshua Olsen and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarred may be underrated in the greatest ever discussions because of how loaded we were with talent at his size during that period. He proved his potential out of state but didnt stick to the wrestling path to raise his profile. But he's such a phenomenal athlete. He's the best MMA strawweight in the world and arguably the best MMA fighter ever out of Indiana (respect to Jon Fitch too).
