Jordan at Ohio Jr High States : Speakers & Interviews

yo grahamfan_x. the basketball team did make it to state.

Hey TJ_x, any proof of illegal stuff? Why don't YOU leak it out, if something is truly illegal.


Like the old saying goes, ""Better to keep your mouth closed and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt"

just wait for the trash talk to start on the basketball team who came damn close to making state this year and went undefeated up until semis, i look forward to a state championship from them, i bet they recruit, maybe the football team should to the same bc god they are horrible.lol

all the bashing is a given when a program wins on a regular basis,most of the people on here are jealous and wish their schools or kids could be as good,and no Im not a graham student and nor a parent or former wrestler im from a big school up north,think about it.

Greatest person and family you will ever meet. There are alot of haters because they aren't willing to work as hard. Maybe kids move to SPG because they want to coached by the best!

ONE OF THE IF NOT THE GREATEST PERSON IVE EVER MET.
AN HONOR TO SPEND MY SUMMERS WITH U.
ALL MY FUTURE COLLEGE SUCCESS WILL BE IN FAVOR TO YOU.

thanks

zeb, you got these jordans to open up. nice work, keep it going.

m...trust me on this, If you want your kid held back...do it. Since when does the school know the child's needs more than the parent.

And think about this...(joke forthcoming) if YOUR school district won't let it happen, transfer to Graham and they'll let it happen!!!

zmiller...Remember...Hank has many things to do even with the season being over. He might respond in an hour or two. It may take some time, but knowing Hank, he'll take the matter to heart and review everything.

Thanks for everything.

Take all of your proof of the illegal activities to the email that I provided you with. Good luck, I bet Zaborniak tells you he is clean.

I must agree, JJ is maybe the best coach in Ohio, but somehwhere along the way, he lost his morals. I believe losing to St. Eds over and over again created a monster. It's only a matter of time before someone becomes upset and something illegal will leak out. This is no different that Barry Bonds, we all know something illegal is going on and it will end ugly eventually. The locals have been up in arms for the past several years.

i have respect for the jordans. They have build a great program. They run great camps and have really developed very good wrestlers. BUT the way that there kids are held back i do not think it is right. I feel it is not right and i believe there should be something done about this. Kids that are the correct age cannot compete

Cant stand to hear the guy speak. Cheat, sneak, do anything to win including illegal recruiting. When will the OHSAA get enough nads to burn this guy? kepp holding those biys back Jeff. All in the name of JJ and state titles.

Jeff Jordan is the greatest coach. He lights a fire under every wrestler that has the pleasure of workin with him. Good luck to Graham and enjoy the reign on top.

The kid martinez had is michael baker and has been around for awhile I was at mat side also and he did not stall at all he wrestled tough against a great kid and held his own and let me say this michael is also 13years old and a true 8th grader and for the record the score was 7-1 with michael getting and escape so you need to change your name from DaTruth to I don't know tried turning him and could not and people was not cheering against martinez they were cheering for baker he had alot of fans from northeast ohio supporting him so whats wrong with that and as i know it baker and martinez are friends and have known each other better than five years

Also the reason that I interviewed him is because besides his brother, the Burnett's, Heffernan and Miron this guys probably knows the most about high school and jr. high wrestling of anyone in like 250 mile radius. But I can interview less interesting people if that makes you happy.

Just do what he does and you will win to. Run eleven weeks of camp at 2 to 3 sites with 20-50 kids at each site. Make sure your kids wrestle six hours each day and get a morning run in and an afternoon lift as well. Wrestle all twelve months of the year and keep you kids totally immersed in this culture and thats how you win. Felipe could have won the state title as a 6th grader, he beat Garbrandt (in 6th grade state finals) who then won HS states the next year. Please know facts before you complain. If you need just email the OHSAA, Henry Zaborniak, he will take care of any problems you have, every thing the guy does is within the rules, his brother would not be involved with him if he was not. Whether you love him or hate him he follows the rules. I don't love Jordan, but I respect what he does, if you want to win just do what he does.

Let me as you this cruiser_96 i have a 7th grader who is an A student so how do you expect me to walk into his school and say we are going to repeat the 7th grade. And when they as me why what am i supposed to say? "we are holding him back because we want it to be easier for him to compete in wrestling" how do you think taht would go over?

Go Falcons!

Riddle me this...riddle me that. If it is illegal, how does the OHSAA not do something about it??? If "we" all know what is going on, how can they not know...especially with EVERY forum concerning the Falcons turning into an age discussion!

Could it be that their kids are within the rules? And therefore, the OHSAA has no legal basis to investigate?

I only ask one question...if HE can do it, why can't anyone else?????? The truth of the matter is everyone else IS allowed. But rather than do it, they'd rather complain.

hey graham falcon fan how could you say it does not matter. You have a 15 year old kid wrestling a 12 or 13 yr old kid. that is like a soph in college wrestling in the hs state tourney. brent metcalf is a rs soph how would you like him wrestling in the hs state tourney? bubba jenkins is a true soph so he would be a sr in high school and if your kid was a sr how fair would that be?

Hey Otis go back to Mayberry - Everyone knows that Graham HS is the county old folks home. Guys who are graduating this year should be sophmores in college and the kids in their MS should be sophmores in HS. PS tell Andy and Barney we said Hi!

Who won the 90# weight bracket...?

why does everybody always complain about how old the graham falcons are? does it really matter? i dont think so just because they whoop your kid's a ss doesnt mean s hit it just means they are better

warrior x north akron and graham had the same number of champions, graham had martinez, cortez, bo jordan, issac jordan, and huston evans

How about 132lb final?

droped about 600 dollars at the tourney and was well spent

Just because we didn't have a state champ at the junior high level this year doesn't mean we wont' have one or two when they get to high shool.

interviewing the champs would have been kewl but great job with what you covered

Cortez was born 08/04/1994 and if he's in 6th grade it means he'll be 19 all of his senior year in H.S. In contrast my son will be 17 his entire senior year. Talk about a huge advantage!

be patient, I will get it right and up here soon

would love to see the finals at 78, 84, 90, 96

Can't believe his kid was at 96 pounds. Kid looks to be 115

tell me who you want to hear from and I will interview them

You guys...

Play nice.

so to compete now you have to hold your kid back as long as possible so he can be as old as possible when wrestling.

martinez probably drove to the tourney.

all that went on there this weekend and this is who you interviewed and let me guess only his kids probably got interviewed
cortez 14 yr old 6th, martinez 15 1/2 with grader they better be amazing

so he is a 13 or 14 yr old 6th grader right.

not a math major but I think its five champs a piece

cortez is in 6th and i think 13 or 14. martinez is an 8th grader

How old is martinez/ cortez and what grade are they in again?

north akron warriors had more state champions
john dillion,zack dailey,both skoniecznys,dicamillo

oh...he had a pretty good tournament...he won it. lol
