purely speculating on my part but if Brooks can come back for 2028 I wonder if his intention is to go 97 and Snyders is to go 125 and greg is aware of that.

He lost his points that year but kept his place.

It was the 2011 offseason (right after that controversy) where they changed the rule.

PSU has always been hit or miss at heavy, they excel from middles on up to 97kg, but heavy has always been a mystery for them. Lehigh has produced really good heavyweights for a very long time now. Kirk needs to be in a place where he can learn the tricks of the heavies, because the weight is his if he really wants it.

Bo would pin him in the first period in folk and tech him in freestyle , People forget Bo went up a weight class and walked through U23s teching the Russian in the finals and then made final X and lost to J’Den cox who has 2 world titles, a world silver , 2 world bronze and an Olympic bronze

That was the controversy that year. He kept his team points where previously, you DNMW, you lose all your points, right @gimpeltf?

We had 3 Champions, a runner up and a Bronze. And we nearly had two other Bronze medals. Obviously some guys didn’t perform as they wanted, but all in all, I thought a 2nd place team finish was very good.

Here ya go

We are going ro need you to make a fourth-place trophy and send that back.

I’m off to bed. No more tv. Kids homework took a bit longer than expected

Hold all tickets. It turns out if you once were in charge of scoring the tournament, you might know a thing or two about where to look for explanations of discrepancies. Thanks to @gimpeltf we can now explain a seeming contradiction that explains the 10 point Wyoming difference above even though the brackets suggest it should not be there. From the Wyoming website news archives: "After racking up four consecutive wins on Friday, LeBlanc missed weight by just half a pound on Saturday morning and forfeited his final two matches and all the team points he had accrued in the tournament. LeBlanc finished sixth despite having being disqualified from Saturday's two matches." Joe LeBlanc kept his All-American finish, but lost all 10 of his team points. That is a good trivia question for anyone who wants a free beer at the next tournament.

99% chance he rides off into the sunset in reruns..,

My Hulu guide says JK is on tonight. Should I stay up past my bedtime to watch it? Additional problem is I have no way to know if it's a rerun.

But Carl said ddm so shirely he had em take that banner down.

As they say out there- If you ain't cheatin, you ain't tryin!

Did you unwittingly share an unposted Tripnsweep narrative?

One thing about team scores that everyone may not know. In the early years (1928- around 1940) they didn't always do team scores officially. So there wasn't an official champ. Also, in the pre-NCAA tournament years it seems there was some sort of championships based on dual results. I don't think the NCAA had anything to do with it but in Rec Hall (PSU) where they have their championship flags, they have one for 1920 (I think that's the year). I asked about that and was told it was based on duals.

ahh ... are you sure they gave out 4th place trophies in 1950? I've never seen it it the trophy case so be hard to send back dime or no dime. Moreover everyone knows that a Sooner is a cheater. They snuck in early on the land rush. I have no problem cheating a cheater.

Not exactly on point but back late 70s early 80s the Skove family from Long Branch, NJ. Mark, John, Matt, Luke, Jude, Andrew, Thomas, Simon (and Nancy Jean- oh well)

Maybe Thomsen can drop back down?

Downey said on a podcast he planned to bump up after this year. Things may have changed but 165 doesn't seem as deep at 157

Team Luke is dominant. Team John was looking very weak until I made the allowance for Jack. In the table above, I think that Mark is the worst overall.

It’s sort of like watching a baseball game. The Jumbotron lists a rare scoped fact to tell a narrative. On Tuesday nights, against left handed pitchers, in the sixth inning, when batting eighth in the lineup, Jonny is batting .294. Meanwhile his season average is 0.193.

His comments on judging based on merit is commendable. That is an impressive clip in a silo. He is articulate like Newsom except without the used car salesman / sleaze vibe. But it’s also weird to hear it used to praise some policies that favor collective over individuals. Also I would bet money he was given the question in advance. He was too polished and prepared for a rare question. His response was well crafted to be on the spot.
