First, I'll address JJETC: Yes, I do have a story about never seeing a varsity season.

My Junior year, I was Varsity and got 3rd in state ( many years ago). The kid who was at my weight and ended up at jv all year was good enough to have placed at state and I know because I wrestled him every day at practice, all year.

My Senior year I moved up a weight class and the kid that was jv behind me the year before ended up getting 4th in state that year.

I got 2nd in state my senior year and once again the kid who was behind me also was good enough to have placed at state, but didnt even get the chance at varsity because he was behind me and it was his senior year also.

Why do I give a *$#@, because they were both good kids, they were both my friends and they both helped me become a better wrestler.

As for the 50 to 80 kids coming out each year being "Ludacris" as you put it. I dont know where you get your info on that, but you are absolutly wrong. Other people have already given examples right here on this thread and if you dont believe me or any of them then just call some of the coaches of the 6A schools.

Now for Spikegreeley. You said in your post that you help Coach at a competitive 6A school. It also says your from South East Kansas. I'm confused, I had no idea that there was a 6A school in South East Kansas. Wherever you coach, how many kids are on the team?

As far as the MAYBE thing, your really grasping for something to fight about there. If you have read all of the post, then you would realize that I have admitted and acknowledged in that post and previous ones that 4A has tougher Regionals.

Read that sentence again, with alittle less hate in your heart and realize that maybe and but in the same sentence usually means yes, but.

As far as exagerating the practices your either gona believe me or not, but its the truth, not an exageration.

End result of all this is 4A has tougher Regionals, but top 6 in any class match up pretty well. 4A more competition at Regionals to get to state, 6A more competition in the practice room to get there. SO WHAT DID YOU HOPE TO PROVE BY STARTING THIS THREAD?
