ILUV2PIN

I've always been about doing what the best do.... ya know, that kind of thing. We are not the best.... 

 

Greetings!

I am the head wrestling coach at Carroll Middle School in Fort Wayne. I am posting to see if there are any openings for Saturday middle school wrestling in January or February? Ideal Saturdays would be -- 1/13, 1/20, 1/27, 2/3, 2/10, 2/17, or even 3/9. Would be wiling to travel slightly out of the Fort Wayne region if necessary. Either reply to me here or send me a dm! Thanks in advance! 

Any Yorktown team from 2009-2016. They were always stacked. 

LOL at all y'all 

While this whole discussion is extremely nuanced, I think these sort of additions/changes would generally help to grow our sport in the state (should be our ultimate goal). I don't know what it would look like, but I'm a big proponent of "do what the best do," and always look to the states with the best collegiate results.

Go figure, Indiana was the last state to allow Sunday alcohol sales, and now we're the only state that doesn't do true wrestle backs...

Never said I wouldn't argue! LMAO

I'm not interested in arguing over the internet. Once you change your name to "ILUV2READ," maybe we can have a civil conversation about the reality of American society changing for the better or worse.

Agreed, DMG. Does no good to argue on high school wrestling message board. I just don't have such a negative view of the youth in this country like you. Rather than bitch about how you perceive the youth of America, how about become a coach or instructor so that you can pass on traits such as toughness and grit to the future generations? That is way more productive than pissing and moaning about it on a high school wrestling message board. And, if you already coach, then you should know we have a lot of power to make the changes this post is talking about.

Ahh, the classic lack of self-awareness that has participated in the gradual decline of American society. Love it XD

Projecting your own insecurities much, tough guy?? 

Ahhh yes, the classic cliché of a question "Why are younger people wimps today when I was such a hardass back in the day?"

Weird flex when the wrestlers themselves seek out their rankings...........

Got the horses in the stable to win the semi-state this year??? Excited to see!

Rumor out of CHS is that Will Jeffries will not wrestle this year, instead focusing on his football career.

Here is what it gave me for the top 50, and it doesn't have Bellmont cracking the top 50 all-time teams. I think we are safe from ChatGPT taking over the world anytime soon. I'm not saying it will not happen, but at the moment Sam could do a better job with this off the top of his head with pen and paper.

Never forget the big parent fight at the either the first or second IHPO at Garrett High lmao

Imagine getting tech-falled and then pulling this $h**. Punk kids, man. Wrong sport buddy. 

I'm still shocked that a guy as busy as Joe is NOT a coffee drinker.. SMH! 

Don't consider Gable as ours...

Mason absolutely goes on the short list of all-time Indiana greats. Can't wait to see if he does anything noteworthy on the international level. 

Class wrestling does us no good, guys. For crying out loud, I’m sick of seeing the classed states having the highest numbers of AA’s across all levels of the collegiate sport. The best states are classed. I know we love our one champ thing. But that is novelty. It doesn’t really prove anything in the grand scheme of thing. I’m probably biased since my brother won a classes title, but I say do what the best are doing. 

Not the first time an Iowa wrestler under Brands laid an egg in a career defining match… Metcalf and Caldwell for those that remember. 

I don’t feel too badly for the Lee’s. That whole family is used to nothing but winning. It’s about time he feels the sting of defeat like the rest of us mortals. On the real though, Spencer is an all time great. Perhaps age and injury got to be too much for him? Lee is still a legend of our sport.

Mishawaka is a Medium sized school.

5A in football man... That is the second highest rung in our state..

According to Google, Mishawaka has a school population of 1492. Not a small rural school, but not one of the big boys. 

Still not a small school by any stretch of the imagination. I'll  throw in their crosstown rivals, the Penn Kingsmen, who also won a title not long ago. Another large school..
