I can't believe I just wasted this much time of my day reading this entire thread. However, all of you make great arguements and it was nice to get away from the ringing of the bells and screaming of the kids to listen to what all of you had to say.

My opinion: Wrestling will never be perfected. It's not where you start but where you end and good kids rise to the top in the end and the not so good ones fall. If you are good enough to win any of the 4 classes of wrestling you are pretty good. If you are good enough to place in any of the four classes in wrestling you are pretty good. If you are good enough to qualify for state in wrestling and that is your main goal then you are decent but need to get better.

I would take my team to any regional in this state in all classes and either:
1) get better
2) die trying
3) have the same results of recent past and take 13 wrestlers to state.
In all cases I won't complain we will just go where we are told to wrestle.

I think 321A has good wrestlers. I think 4A has good wrestlers. I think 5A has good Wrestlers. I think 6A has good wrestlers.

I think you could pair up the top 10 teams in each class and have a 40 team grand state tournament and do it for 3 weeks in a row and the outcome would be different every time. Teams evolve, fold, get better, get worse but all in all... we are all equal. State is state and wrestling is wrestling.

Good luck to all you gentlemen this week-end and I wish you prosperous medal counts!
