#54	Bennet Yourwrong March 4 at 8:18pm to bad Waldo did lose. hes overrated. he starves his ass off to make weight. reply
#53	Coach DeWeese July 15, 2008 at 3:08pm Roy, Thanks for coming to North Carolina and doing the clinics @ Jack Britt H.S. I want you to come back, but your email @ Davison doesn't work any more, and I don't have Uncle Bob's like I used too!! (LOL!) Get back in touch, and we will set you up at the beach! Great interview! I saw the greatness of your boys in 2004&5 in our wrestling room/gym. You and your team/s have inspired a lot of the NC kids and coaches too! I'm Proud of Paulie, Brent, Trevor, Jonny, Zack, Kegan and all the guys from the great cold blue! -John reply
#52	Deek June 28, 2008 at 2:35am he tackled his ass! anything to win reply
#51	James Demember April 18, 2008 at 2:08pm Best wishes Roy see you in the room next year. PEACE reply
#50	Mich April 16, 2008 at 4:40am Poor lost child. reply
#49	Mich April 12, 2008 at 4:44pm I'm pretty sure thats not really Bennett. People can claim to be anybody on here just to start drama. Thats the problem with forums like this. reply
#48	Henkesports_x April 11, 2008 at 7:06pm Great Video coach! Best wishes to you and your family. reply
#47	; April 11, 2008 at 3:23pm I am officially a Roy Hall fan. Coach Hall is a great ambassador of the sport of wrestling. Well wishes... reply
#46	Ben Bennett April 10, 2008 at 5:22pm lets get realistic. Rockford is a powerhouse and there is no possible way Waldo will ever lose next year. Dorulla will be a national champ like me and we will win a state title. We may be cocky, but we've earned that right. reply
#45	Rockford Is Not Good April 9, 2008 at 9:36pm rockford has the most cockiest kids ever. waldo is ugly and the worst 3 time state champ ever. he got majored by a kid that never was even in the finals. he got beat by an 8th grader last summer. he will get rolled this summer again. same with dorulla and all of those cocky rockford fans reply
#44	Coach Slack April 9, 2008 at 8:58pm Thank you for the clarification "coach slack can't hear" I am glad I am able to perpetuate anything at all at this level but even 122 push ups w/o stopping is impressive in 7th grade. 122 pull ups is out of this world and i am glad someone straightened me up. Brent's accomplishments still speak for themself and no I do not believe it is possible to be the best at this sport and be stupid in any way shape or form. Although I would say intelligence is very relative! reply
#43	Mhsaa Fan Of Many Years April 8, 2008 at 8:44pm I'm from a rival school and never would dream of Bashing the fantastic job and great dedication Roy has had to the sport and his kids. I don't believe Bennett would say such things and if he did I feel sorry for him. We all all wish to have our own coach have the same love and passion for the sport and for the kids in your program that You, Rodriguez and a handful of other coaches have had. Best of luck with you and your own family and enjoy your kids...I am sure you will make the right decisions for them also. reply
#42	Brent Metcalf April 7, 2008 at 11:18pm guess what people, you can put whom evers name on here that you want and post as it. I highly doubt that the post below is actually from Ben Bennett. Just like I'm not really Brent Metcalf reply
#41	Jbru April 7, 2008 at 9:30pm What is with this Bennett kid? He is making Rockford look like a bunch of disrespectful punks. reply
#40	UrIt April 7, 2008 at 8:41pm Many young men owe alot to Roy Hall!! He was there to help anyone who wanted to improve their wrestling. He will be missed. Hope Davison's new coach is half as good as Roy PS to Bennett - if you are really good, you don't have to brag about it or belittle others. Your posts speak volumes to your character and your not going to Davison did them a huge favor reply
#39	Chris Rodriguez April 6, 2008 at 9:27am I just wanted to let you know how it ment to me when you came up to my father and thanked him for all that he has done for the sport at the state tourny.that he got kicked out of .Your a class act Roy and I am glad we crossed paths in life. Good luck to you and your family .God Bless reply
#38	Coach Slack Can't Hear! April 5, 2008 at 7:56pm Here is a brief transcription of the interview at 00:22 of the clip: "I keep records of push ups and the mile...He did 122, that's 122 without stopping." Hall never once mentions Metcalf doing 122 pullups when he was in 7th grade. I know someone will reply, "Hey 122 pushups is pretty impressive!" Yes, indeed it is and I am not taking anything away from that accomplishment. I am only pointing out that Coach Slack needs to pay closer attention to the video and what is being discussed. This is simple stuff and you are helping perpetuate the idea that people involved in athletics are stupid. reply
#37	Coach Slack April 5, 2008 at 6:05pm Tremendous vid, with what seems like a tremendous coach! Man the records really speak for themselves but also the insight with the dedication to his family is inspiring.Brent is the man, 122 pull ups, please someone honestly tell me their is someone who could do more even in high school. reply
#36	MIch April 5, 2008 at 5:38pm They may have come from Goodrich but they wrestled for Davison in high school. I'm not knocking Goodrich because they are very good but you have to give Hall props for what he did with his high school team. reply
#35	Ekkeman_x April 5, 2008 at 2:44pm fore...not four. If there were four, I would be even more impressed. reply
#34	Kg April 5, 2008 at 11:36am whattttttt reply
#33	Suitor April 5, 2008 at 9:36am Takes a lot of courage for someone to admit that they have never been circumcised. Great coach, great man and an even more impressive four skin :) reply
#32	R. Stehley April 5, 2008 at 7:26am Success breeds success! A great run for the ages. Best wishes for your future. http://www.grandriverrumble.com reply
#31	Lmbrjck April 4, 2008 at 8:55pm Jon Reader would beat Bennett also reply
#30	Waldo_x April 4, 2008 at 7:33pm sorry Ben Brent would beat you!!I'm on your side tho. reply
#29	Fan April 4, 2008 at 1:22pm Please don't start the recruiting crap again. He had a program that people wanted to come to and the parents were willing to send their kids there. It's not like what Beazley did at Montrose where he actually recruited and offered housing and stuff to kids so they would be in the montrose school district. Roy Hall is a great coach who has left a tremendous impact on the wrestling community in michigan reply
#28	Loyd Banks April 4, 2008 at 7:18am Most people don't know I wrestled in HS. This Hall fellow seems to have it right. reply
#27	Joe_x April 4, 2008 at 2:15am Great great video, that I think alot of people wrestlers and coaches can take something from. reply
#26	Mich Fan April 4, 2008 at 1:57am Metcalf and Donahoe were Goodrich kids who were recruited out of that program. Goodrich was state champs this year. Those guys should've stayed with their school...I like Roy, but the top program in Michigan is Goodrich. reply
#25	Mike Krause April 3, 2008 at 9:04pm Roy called me when he was coaching the middle school team and said Davison would be state champs in three years. I seriously laughed because the High School Team had just scored 2 points at the tough Catholic Central tourny. Three years later I wasnt laughing. He single handedly built the Davison wrestling community back from the ashes. Still cant take me down though..... reply
#24	Jake_x April 3, 2008 at 9:00pm Roy, I just started coaching a HS team in MI, and we are using Davison as a model. You are a major influence on Michigan wrestling, and now our state is the real deal. reply
#23	Brubaker April 3, 2008 at 8:41pm I went to MSU with him and he was just as passionate about wrestling then as he is now... What a great message! Thanks Roy! reply
#22	Neil Szuch April 3, 2008 at 8:39pm Excellent Video! Exceptional Man! reply
#21	JS April 3, 2008 at 8:39pm Roy did what he said he would do when he was in high school..he returned to Davison and made them a dynasty. What he has given to the school, community and the young men he has coached is priceless. Thank you,Roy, for your passion and humility. reply
#20	Ohreally_x April 3, 2008 at 8:10pm Great Coach reply
#19	Wow April 3, 2008 at 7:58pm i wish roy was my coach :( reply
#18	Jeff Mustari April 3, 2008 at 5:34pm It was great to see you at the Nationals Roy, You have done a tremendous job at Davison now enjoy your family and the best of luck. reply
#17	Davison Fan April 3, 2008 at 5:22pm Chase Metcalf was killed in a car accident in the fall of 2005. Roy Hall stepped down as coach in order to spend more time with his family. He has devoted his life year round to wrestling for so many years and his children are starting to get older and he feels they need their father in their lives more than before. Roy is a legend and he has left a huge imprint on not just Davison wrestling but wrestling state wide reply
#16	Michigan Man April 3, 2008 at 5:02pm What happened to Chase? reply
#15	Red Faced Jay April 3, 2008 at 2:47pm Best video yet. Best one! Its hard to really put into words how to make things happen for some people. You can see why this guy made things happen. reply
#14	Roy Hall April 3, 2008 at 2:33pm is a legend!! reply
#13	Christopher Walken April 3, 2008 at 2:32pm Why does he sound like me? Creepy comes to mind. reply
#12	Jason Mcdermitt April 3, 2008 at 2:08pm roy thank you for everything that you have done for my son and our family. YOU have made us better people any way you look at man.You have have been a big part of helping my son acheive his goals and dreams.Thank you very much. reply
#11	Esky April 3, 2008 at 2:07pm Everytime Martin posts an interview of a successful wrestler or coach, the audience seems to always say "that guy was great" or "impressive", etc. I believe wrestling simply attracts and develops these people. This video was great and I am proud Coach Hall is a fellow Michigander. reply
#10	Mr. Curiousity April 3, 2008 at 1:48pm Why did he step down? Did he say it was because of his own kid, or was that just an example? reply
#9	Attack_x April 3, 2008 at 1:12pm Sounds like Metcalf was destined to be great! reply
#8	Kgu April 3, 2008 at 12:23pm what a great guy reply
#7	Jeremy Beal April 3, 2008 at 10:34am If I were to sum up what Roy Hall has done for our sport not only in Michigan, but at the top level as well, in one word, IMPRESSIVE!! Roy you have done our state well, created some of the nations most dominant men on the mat, and have earned RESPECT nationwide. It will be very difficult to replace the legacy you leave behind, but you set a level to strive for for the next guy. I think I speak for everyone when I say "THANK YOU," for what you have done for our great sport. Good luck with everything you do as you keep persuing your happiness. Jeremy Beal USA & MHSAA Official reply
#6	Voris2_x April 3, 2008 at 10:07am What a great interview. This man has got it. reply
#5	Jamar Whitfield April 3, 2008 at 9:36am great work man, you are someone that I look up to. Jamar Whitfield Highland Park Wrestling reply
#4	Michigan Wrestling April 3, 2008 at 9:30am An Outstanding Coach and better person! reply
