Re: Jesse Adams - Tough Path

I only underestimated Jesse because of his age and weight class. I’m gonna keep saying it. Never bet against any Adams. Great parents and siblings second to none. The kid was bred to win. Only easy from here for Jesse. I predicted it years ago. A kid as athletic as Jesse with in the big boy class… t...

Re: OW awards

Imo Jesse Adam's had at minimum the most impressive performance of the tournament. I understand the story lines etc but who else came in ranked 6th as a freshman in a senior dominant weight class and took out the 1 and 2 ranked wrestler?

Re: AA/A finals predictions ?

Jesse Adam's. Wow! What a performance. I thought he was to young for that weight but he made it look easy. Moral of the story is... never count out any Adam's. One bad dude

Noah Adam's with a 3.99 state championship is our best representation as the state of wv. Zero argument! Not sure who his runner up would be??

Re: Braxton Amos at States

197 is deeper than 133? I’m not sure deeper is the right word choice but definitely unpredictable. I promise you that I can pick the top 4 at 133 and probably not the top 4 at 197. Pickling the top 8 at 197 would be nearly impossible. You would have to look at who beat who but lost to this guy that...

I’ve done the math. South reigns supreme. South will bonus and their freshman will win duel. Point a worthy opponent will keep it close until 145, then it’s a wrap. South by 12-15

Re: Noah Adams

Noah just made his way to the finals from the 4 seed at the southern scuffle in Chattanooga Tn and moved to 20-0 for the season. Noah will face Stanford university’s Traxler in the finals. Traxler is Flo wrestling’s #5 in the country. Flo had Noah ranked #20 coming into the scuffle.

Re: Middle Score Wrestling Results ???!?!?!

I don’t see the big deal in posting scores. I always look when they are posted but I’d presume posting scores to be public isn’t a mandatory rule of the forum. Scores are for parents to scout the opposition and imo isn’t a necessity. Doc has a life but each and every coach does as well. Doc should c...

Here’s some criteria for you: 100+ wins with zero losses Zero, and i mean zero offensive points scored on him as high school wrestler. That in itself deserves an award. Those zero points include 2 Ironman Titles, 2 Powerades and many more. Is that not the definition of domination? The definition of...

Imo, there isn’t a real comparison to be made athletically with the smaller and bigger guys. That’s why we have skilled positions in football and we all know we need the big men up front opening up the holes and protecting the passer.
