rookie78 reacted to rdrodd1 in 160 Super Bracket
My nephew caught Howe at freestyle state in 08. Got in on a single on one side of the mat and couldn't finish by the time they got to the other side. Back to the center and Howe took him down and gator rolled him across the fair grounds to the parking lot. In all, about 15 seconds of wrestling. But we always joked about how he almost took Andrew down.

No Reeve Muncie or Marshall Fishback? What a shame.

He's anti-Fort Wayne obviously. It would be an easy final if he included those two.

Keep it 1 class, anything else is blasphemy. I'm from a super small school and would be totally against classing state tourney.
If you need an example, take one look at Silas Allred. 2x state champ, 5th ranked nationally, wrestling for Nebraska now; from little po-dunk, not even a real town out in boonies Shenandoah. Other examples are Cody Phillips, Michael Duckworth, Stock brother from Monrovia and others from there and all the other guys I'm forgetting from the "small schools". All those kids did that for their communities and schools, all those kids are top notch athletes/wrestlers, and if you had a class state tourney I believe it would drive those kinds of kids away to bigger schools more quickly than keeping it 1 class is. They would get bored way quicker and be ready to transfer after sophomore year.
The greatest thing about this sport is you can line up toe-to-toe with someone and prove you're better than them, you don't need coaches or parents deciding for you. Add that with the greatest thing about this sport in this state is that it is 1 class and you can be from the backwoods of northeastern to the hollers of switzerland county to the lakes of Angola and prove you're the best and better than the guys from perry, warren, bburg, crown pointe, mater dei, etc.

Not sure how we would have faired against 3A/4A schools in team state, but I think we could have ran with some teams a little.

rookie78 got a reaction from Coach Nieman in Article: 2024 State Finals Conundrum
Move the entire finals to Prairie Heights HS:
1. Limited Seating, as we will be utilizing 4 gyms on campus and possibly a 5th that would be off campus. We could used up to 6 mats.
2. Unlimited parking on our 230 acre campus/school farm, possible shuttle with tractor or horse-drawn buggy
3. Concessions-fresh farm raised beef provided by our FFA along with fresh well water.
4. Accommodations- overnight stays by tent, RV, and/or Hotel De Caprino
5. Restrooms-indoor plumbing at PH along with port-a-johns at the baseball and softball diamonds within walking distance of the main gym.
Win-win situation for all

Any word on whether or not things will be back to normal for Friday night, such as having 1 session, rather than 2?
And buying tickets for Saturday? Will they still be online Friday, supposedly 10 pm, and #ticketgate breaks loose again and people can't buy tickets for hours?
Will the elevator get crammed full at the Hyatt Place again?
