Footsweep 0 Report post Posted January 26, 2010 John Doe is a 7th grader who is incredibly advanced in the subject of Mathematics. He is not only capable of being successful in a pre-calculus course, but his parents figure he will accel. Should this gifted student be forced to sit through a geometry course that bores him?

Wrestling Dad 99 Report post Posted January 26, 2010 One additional comment about Hall. You could compare him to a young Joe Carr, Jr. I know he is very good, however there is no "guarantee" he will win state this year. Bradbury has already beat him and will be anticipating a rematch. Second, Joe Carr didn't win 5 state titles. As other forums have pointed out, he was pinned his senior year at Hoptown by the Caldwell kid, the ref just couldn't process it in time to call it. Hall could return to Michigan and not win 4 more state titles. There are sooooo many variables...injuries, bad calls, you get caught by a lesser wrestler. It's far too early to chalk him up to 5 or 6 state titles.By the way, what does his dad do that he can move a kid around like that? Wish I had that kind of job!

Charger Coach 14 Report post Posted January 26, 2010 I personally think as a whole we could use this situation to help better our state in wrestling. I'm trying to start a middle school program at Bullitt East and I've actually mentioned Mark Hall to some of the middle school kids to peak their interest in wrestling. They hear about a middle school kid who can wrestle varsity in high school and then hear about the success they have and the next thing you know, they want to give wrestling a shot. Obviously, not all those kids will stick with wrestling, but if you gain at least a couple who stick it out, then you've gained some numbers in your program, which is what most high school teams in Kentucky struggle with. Sure, some of those middle schoolers won't be physically advanced enough to wrestle in high school just as of yet, but then you wrestle them in middle school meets. Part of the problem is simply getting kids to come out for wrestling whether it be middle school or high school just so you can have the opportunity to get them "hooked". Who cares if the kid is from Michigan and won't be staying for his high school career. Even if you don't have a "dog in the fight", use it to your advantage. I've mentioned Brock Ervin just the same amount as Mark Hall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Start with a Elementary school program first then the middle school program, it will have kids. All that is needed then a MS coach, you will have the kids and their parents behind a MS program. Unless they move to another MS program :-o :-o :-o. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You volunteering to come coach it? Because unless you are, that's not going to happen. Myself and my assistant will be running the middle school program for the 1st few years until we can find someone to do so. We can practice middle schoolers with the high school kids, but that's not feasible with elementary school kids. Yes, it would be great to build from the bottom up, but we're having to build from the top down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zeus 117 Report post Posted January 29, 2010 I would never have missed a tournament for a dance or anything like it. Only thing would be a family emergency. However some people have different priorities and there's nothing wrong with that. Some people wrestle just because they like to scrap, they don't live and die by it. However I did and it sounds like there are multiple people who feel the same way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pioneer_pride 1 Report post Posted January 29, 2010 the supe's always struck me as very relaxed, easy going kids about wrestling. they're tough kids, but don't seem to take it to the extreme serious level of commitment that others do. it would be scary how good they'd be if they did.
