Tim, I chuckled at fact someone in this state trust me! :D I thought that disappeared when Scheny left. :D Tim, When you get to finals it is ultimately a dual meet so you absolutely can draw for finals. The NHFS rule simply states (art 2 sec 1) Competition in dual meets shall be conducted by random ...

Per the rule book, the random draw was designed for dual meets, tri and quads. The later you move up each round. The park duals start at 106 every round and have since its conception. Can't teach old Shaggy new tricks. LOL The coaches committee approved it for finals at states which is really a dual...

George, I agree whole heartly. Been saying for years duals should count 1/2 weigh in and each team required to wrestle 8 duals. Preferably one in front of student body. 2. Dual tournaments should count as 6 weigh ins. A couple of year ago Pa change their rules and all the PA teams pulled out because...

Coach
2 to 1 second 30 o/t Frazier.

In my humble opinion, Duals should count as 1/2 pt for weighs in and required to wrestle "X" amount of duals. You could do for duals for what you do two now. Also think just like college their should be a quick intermission in all duals. One should be in front of student body also. Tris an...

Again, try to put some simple information and once again WOW. The coaches committee select, SSAC just approved it. Go anyway you want with it. Put ultimately, the coaches decide.

I am putting this out there because I was asked to! Nothing more, Nothing less! There will be no "BYES" in the brackets at the state tournament. if a region has a bye, then they will TAKE all regions placer winners in that weight class and use a criteria to see who advances. This was decid...

Coach White was a huge influence in my officiating career. He brought me up from a pup and was always willing to point out my flaws. He brought me down for his tournament. It was a pleasure to call some heated duals with him in corner. Nothing but the upmost respect. RIP

I am sorry I started this thread. Wish I knew how to delete it. Gator and Ray thanks for the insight! What happened last year has been well posted and plenty of blame to go around. However, it has nothing to do with trying to get young people on the mat and stay with it.

I am not the spoke person, I just trying to help out since I know matches will be cancelled if no officials. Secondly, I had zero issues last year and wasn't remotely involved in the sad scenario that took place. ( I assume that is what you are talking about) But I thank you for responding and I am ...

That time of year and officiating classes will be starting through out the state. This state is going to need new officials or it will be in dire straight to cover matches. PERFECT chance for everyone to step up and make the greatest sport greater. After all this site has all the experts that say ho...

This is a great hire by WVU I consider Tim a great coach. My nephew wrestled for him at Edinboro!!! He's hands on , a great organizer, a truly outstanding coach, great recruiter, all business type of coach that is needed to turn the program around!!! I hope he brings those inroads in Pa. , Ohio, an...

1. Last time I checked this is a open forum. I know of one that got deleted because I asked it to be. 2. I have had hundreds and I do mean hundreds of people come to me and thank me for my post. 3. I let my officiating speak for itself. For anyone to think I am basis surely hasn't seen me officiate ...

Coach let it go. Who do you think the fans of WV will listen to. A Hall of Famer who has devoted his entire life to the youth of the state or a person who spent a total time of 1.44 on the mats at a state tournament. Both kids are class acts and so are you.

I hope they go get the person who was first to hand in a resume last time. Coleman Scott, WPA boy with a lot of connections. Wish Sammie the best

Prayers for all! He always treated people the right way and had a great sense of humor. We lost a good one.

Good not agree more Gator! After everything Doc has been though this page and WV Wrestling is what he lives! Thank you Doc and MRS!

EXCELLENT post, this is what this sport is suppose to be about. You raised a fine young man and it shows. Best of luck as his goes on to be a neo-surgeon and enjoy the IVY league experience.

I checked with Cael he prefers the term backup instead of JV.

What is Cael/PSU going to do at 197? Is he going to petition NCAA to allow back ups? Is he going to talk about his inner workings of his program on his weekly radio station? Is he going to start thirty different threads talking about the same thing? OR Is he going to make a decision and move on? :D ...

As a fan and nothing more so please don’t put more into it. I like the pill as it brings uncertainty and excitement through out the tournament. I will asked two questions for thought. 1. If you wrestled the tournament 5 times with same pill would you have the same champion all 5 times? 2. If you see...

Well said!

Tommorrow at the old Fairmont Armory now field house. Made it one day because of weather.

Coach Stump, You have done more for the sport of wrestling for 3 generations of our youth then most people will ever know. Nothing but a class act and the upmost respect for the way you have and continue to promote this sport. You are the definition of the topic, Sportmanship. For that I say thank y...

Let me try to clarify. 1. The is no two rule unsportsmanlike rule in wrestling. 2. Flaragant you are gone sit out next two weigh ins Some examples Biting Dropping f bomb Punching Spitting Head butts can be also Then you have unecessary roughness and unsportsmanlike Examples Strong cross face Tauntin...

WV sportswriters vote on it! I agree easy choice this year if nothing changes!

Another post to prove my point. Take everybody advice on here and quit bringing the sport down instead of promoting. And if you are take time off work and spending money then you have have time to get in the fight and not be a spectator. Just saying!

And for the record, with my job it cost me to officiate and once again you have no idea what and how I do with that money. So until you put your name and face out there in public to take the hits like I and others do you really are irrelevant.

Not attacking you at all simply stating facts! This is none of your business and you hindering the sport not prompting it.

Your post sums up the insanity of this thread. What kind of official I am has nothing to do with this topic. AVERAGE at best. And we know you don’t publitcy, because you hide behind screen name why myself and others don’t abd take the criticisms that go with it.
