  1. Forgetting Matt Hasbrook from Cathedral in here. I would say he's top 3. 5X Fargo All-American (Greco, FS) 2X High School Nationals All-American (1st, 2nd) 2X Fargo National Champ FILA World Cadet Runner up 1998 Undefeated IN State Champ in 2000 Fun fact: Split his heads-up matches with UFC Heavyweight Champ Cain Velasquez (CA) in Fargo.
  2. Umm, missing Jordan Slivka. He'd beat anyone at 138 with a 1-0 victory. I'd prob take him at 145 too if the dual was on the line.
  3. If you've been on this board long enough, you know who everyone is. I think I've been on it for 20 years now. I've never hidden behind anything. I could care less who knows who I am. I sit on a number of boards. I get asked to sit on those boards because I am a realist and I speak the truth. So, here's the truth: I don't like you. I haven't liked you since you ran a cavalier program in Mishawaka that destroyed kids' lives. I thought you might learn your lesson from your time in the 574, but it is abundantly clear that you haven't. Your arrogance and hubris will forever affect the outcome of your program. You can recruit some all-stars, but they typically underachieve when they walk into your room. You have a chance to have an amazing run over the next two years, but we all know you'll figure out a way to squander it like you have the last couple. So, I would encourage you to take some guidance from some past great coaches (Goebel, Smith, Patton) or even some currents (Schaefer, McGinley, Deckard) and find some humility. Build a program that speaks for itself. I hope your kids can find a way to excel on the west side, but it won't be from your current approach. Good luck.
  4. Been gone for a week. Missed much on the beloved IM. I hate to speak for the IndianaMat community, but most everyone cringes that a coach from a Top 10 program feels so compelled to reply to a random poster. I think it's probably secondary embarrassment, but really it is sadness that a coach is so triggered. I think it reflects on how the program is built and what it stands for. I often wonder what could possibly bring Schaefer, McGinley, Lorek, etc. from engaging with a fan. And, then I remember there is absolutely nothing that would provoke them. As far as the topic goes, it is a fair question. I'll rephrase it so no coaches from #thecounty get offended. Should age be a factor in how incoming rankings are affected? Hasbrook
  5. Will Reynolds and Dickman drive to school next year? Asking for a friend.
  6. I know it isn't as recent, but Lance Ellis had 151 falls in 177 matches. And undefeated. It was a spectacular run. The first of the modern day 4timers. Gotta work the guy in. He was the most entertaining wrestler of this generation. His lateral was unmatched.
  7. Agree. Had the luxury of watching every Zeke match for 4 years. The amount of joy I've had watching his development has been worth the whole high school experience. His pop and momma, Brian and Jen, and the CHS crew have been amazing to be part of. From the early days of the Baileys and Walendzak to the later days of Dickey and Reyes, the room always popped. Zele has kept the program as a top contender and leaves Cathedral with the most state titles in Cathedral history with 5 rings. For a school with a gazillion IHSAA titles, he can rest easy knowing he was one of the greatest that walked our halls. Thanks for the memories, Seltzer's. We love you. And, we can't wait to follow Zeke through his college years at Missouri.
  8. Nothing is close. Never was in doubt. A team for the ages. When your 4X champ rolls though with 5-7 of his homies since wrestling as tykes, this is the byproduct. The same goes for the 2005 LN team with Reece Humphrey, Pino, Thomas Johnson, etc.... ... and the 2003 EMD team that just got unseated. Patterns follow the few dads (and moms) that band together a group of 5-7 youngsters through summer seasons, regional competitions, etc. for 12 years or more. It's a scourge. And it's all worth it. Congrats to the CP guys. Incredible squad.
  9. Would have nailed it if you actually picked one team.
  10. Should have taken the action. I'll be at Coaches Tavern after the bigguns buying Fireball shots if you're thirsty.
  11. Don't sleep on the Irish, lads. We could be Crown Point's maid of honor if all goes well.
  12. If anyone wants action on Lone vs Euson, I'll take all of it. DM me. Euson -2.5.
  13. Jackson Weingart is about to blow all your minds at 220. Unranked. Heard it here first. Under the tutelage of Coach Bill and Seltzer, he's the next Elliott Rodgers from CHS. .
  14. I agree. Rotten draws for sure. You have to question his weight class decision though. He knows he has to go through Seltzer at New Castle and he could draw him in the semis (which is exactly what happened). And you know 1 of the next 2 best kids in the state are coming in as either a #2 or a #3 depending on the EV Semi-state bracket. Both of which have eliminated him from the state tourney in the previous 2 years. If it were me, I probably would have dropped to 126 (if he had the ability) to go through Blake Wolf at NC or bump to 138 to go through Bryce Lowery. This opens up the debate on running from someone, but Zeke is 10 points better than him. I'd say Lowery and Wolf would be toss-ups. But maybe, just maybe, he has the fortitude to want to avenge his state loss. I'm pulling for him. He was the most consistent kid in the CIA room. Furious worker.
  15. i watched the match mat side. If you are offended by destroyed, I'll rephrase. Buchanan was in complete control in the victory. Veazy could win it all one year, but not this year in my opinion.
  16. Down 8-4 when he was pinned. 2 of 4 points scored by Veazy were penalty points. I think the youngster is going to be special, but it wasn't that close.
  17. Buchanan destroyed Veazy at Al Smith.
  18. New Castle: Wilson vs Searcy Rinehart vs Glithero Josh Johnson vs Ingalls Naselroad vs TJones HosiaSmith vs Vlahitliko (Westfield) off the top of my head.
  19. Has the smoke cleared? Was I wrong about my 20 point Crown Point victory prediction? Prob not. Does Center Grove have 2 champs? Does Cathedral have 2 champs? Does Brownsburg have a champ? How many are in the finals? I think CP has 4 in the finals, Brownsburg has 4, and Cathedral has 3. By the time the finals start, the team title will be decided.
  20. Royce Deckard II (LN) got 4th in semi-state and never won any of the previous state series in 1992 before winning it all if memory serves.
