  1. I get it!!! Its like a riddle. Man.... I love riddles. But... in all seriousness. A lot of my friend's kids had spots on the team. I feel really bad for them. I suspect that this is going to get ugly. I hate that fact.
  2. Are you saying that 70 of Indiana's best wrestlers could be done for their career, if they wrestle in this event? Dang.... that would suck! Or maybe more!!! If they go back to prior years. It must be something bad. Cmon man we gotta know!
  3. Again... we get it! Nobody is sleeping on EMD. We are all about to catch the wrath of #TheVille! Btw... congrats to all that made BlueChippers team. They all had great seasons!
  4. Actually... parts of Brownsburg's township have Indianapolis address. It actually touches Indy.
  5. I agree... but what if I said that #TheVille©®™ was average at best (including EMD). Would I get a reaction? Btw... that would be a stupid statement. Your guy... pretty much said that #TheCounty wrestling would be average at best without Brownsburg. Pretty sure that another solid team and some other tough kids wrestle here too. Was just pointing out that I think that his opinion is wrong (in my eyes). Didnt mean to confuse anyone. Again, just debating his point of view. And yes... I do realize that people are sick of hearing about it. But... it wasn't us talking about it this time. Geesh.
  6. Is this not a message board where we can get on here and debate? I assure you that no one is upset. If hook were to show up at iswa state this weekend and we were to meet... I'm sure that we would have a good laugh. I know that we have a good team. I also know that EMD is great also. But... I also know that if anyone got on here and said that they Evansville wrestling is average at best... 50 people would get on here and react. I assure you that I'm good. As I stated before... I can dish it and I can take it. I think that is what makes this board fun. No hard feelings.. just making points and sharing opinions. I assure you that I have tons of fun, and smile more than most. #Blessed
  7. Yeah.. young buddy. It does say pretty average not good. But your right! My team hasn't won squat. Have to keep putting in the work. I assure that work was put in tonight, and will be done the next day and the next day! I know the same is being done a few miles to the north of me too. It doesn't matter.... he got the reaction that he wanted.
  8. Ok... ok.... we get it. You have said it in multiple ways on multiple threads. Your team is awesome... Brownsburg is too. Avon, Danville, Plainfield, TriWest, and Cascade have little to nothing to offer Indiana wrestling. I'm sure that if EMD and Avon wrestle at team state next year... you guys will crush us. We do get it. Btw... I'm sure that if you take the best team out of any county, then that county would be not as good. And... if some how, some way... an average Avon team would finish higher than another team... would that team be considered to be below average? Really to be honest... it is awesome just to be a part of a program that has a small part in this conversation. I assure you that when I started to volunteer in this area a decade ago... nobody would have ever predicted that a conversation that our area against the best in Indiana would ever happen. These conversations were only applicable to EMD, the region, Perry, and the other top dogs. So... yes I'm proud of the Brownsburg program, the Avon program and all of the kids that I have had the honor of seeing work so hard to try to get to the top. I typically stay positive on this board. Just have a hard time swallowing hook's point of view. So.. no I don't think that without Brownsburg, this area is average. And it's not going to be for sometime. Just too much desire and resources here to go back to average or worse. Better watch out for Plainfield in a few years (they are about to make some big changes). You heard it here first. It's not going away.
  9. Congrats to all that made the team. I look forward to being there to watch these guys kick butt! Seems like yesterday when Brandi Cash held the first qualifier for the ISWA elementary duals at Ben Davis High School. Some of those kids are now seniors. I have been on most of those trips since. Its an awesome thing. Can this years group beat our all time best finish of 3rd? Don't look now.... but the Gold team has 7 weight classes represented by #TheCounty. And another 3 on the second team. CRAZY! Kinda reminds me of 2013 when the team was led by 7 from #TheCounty and took 3rd.
  10. For sure! I have had the opportunity to coach both at duals. Awesome kids that are great wrestlers and cool guys. These two always have crazy singlets. Congrats guys!
  11. Best thing to happen here..... a bunch of idiot parents decided to ignore the no smoking policy (which happens at most tournaments). A cop rolled up and gave a guy a $100 ticket.
  12. Good stuff. Much better then your typical local tournament. Great opportunity for these younger guys to get back on the horse. I can see this thing getting bigger as the years go by. Kids are having fun. Lots of kids from different schools hanging with each other. Big thanks to Mark, Southport, and the other organizers.
  13. Is it 4 pounds on top of the 2 pounds which they got at the first of the year (6 total)? Or just 4 over the weight class?
  14. exactly... if you have two equal kids... that first take down is pretty much it. Also... I see a lot of hwt over times in our future.
  15. Hehe...... the rumor is that we will not be going to Evansville any longer. The word is that they are moving semi-state North. While we will not be going to New Castle, but we will be meeting in the middle somewhere. So... I guess we are all moving.
  16. Maybe so but the iswa kids even stop wrestling 1:00 1:00 1:00 after the age of 9. Just don't like it. Just my opinion.
  17. Is there anyway to expand the field??? I know the answer is no.... but this one is going to be tough! Got a bunch of really qualified teams in the running for the last two spots. To be honest, no way that I would be able to pick two. Who's everyone got, and why?
  18. This is a high school tournament. I really think that they should reconsider this.
  19. That's true hook... take it and dish it. And he was talking about us, and I fired back. You see that's how it works. Someone bust your chops and you can do the same. That's what guys do. No biggie. Just sucks when nameless faceless people do it. The kitchen did get hot, and I just fired it back. And I do agree with Tony, the negative post most likely didn't come from one of their guys. Tony is a great guy and took time to chat with a guy or two from our team prior to the parade. He has a great program. He is building it from the ground up. Big fan of his elementary jet club. Sorry that I made those comments. Those guys are a class act. #ItIsComing
  20. i know all about Adams Central. I have actually met coach Currie. He's a great dude and the program is great. I guess I was just busting chops. Just kinda figured that your guy was not being cool.
  21. Ok.. ok... we get it Avon sucks. I guess Danville sucks too. Is that what you want to hear? Me personally would like to congratulate Logan Boe on one heck of a run. I would also like to congratulate Avon for having 4 state placers (two sophomores and a freshman). Last time I checked... four state placers is a great thing. Huge congratulations to Gunnar Larson on a great career and EARNING the mental attitude award. He is a great leader and will do something great with the rest of his life. Thank you to the IHSAA from realizing this also. Last but not least... great season by the Bulldogs. They won everything! The always seem to be having fun and are all great kids. With all of that said... Adams Central had a great season (wherever that school is). You should be proud of your kids. That zero points scored is very strong. I assure you that we will take your criticism to heart and get better. Thanks for your multiple post knocking our kids...... gesh! #TheCounty
  22. That would be Sam Rioux of Avon. He is currently the fourth Rioux brother but not the youngest (another in the oven). Sam is a pre school Tulsa all-American. Needless to say... the 106 spot at Avon will be held by a Rioux for well over a decade!!! Ha
  23. The Iranians get in a stance with their legs way back (almost impossible to get to them), then dig the under hooks. As soon as our guys would get out of position they would throw it by for two, or drop behind a leg and shelf it. Our wizzer defense from there was worthless. They rarely took a shot, but we were on the clock the majority of the time. Tough to watch.
