I guess you kinda have to leave him there but he’s basically being rewarded for not wrestling at CKLV Edited December 3, 2023 by 1032004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you kinda have to leave him there but he’s basically being rewarded for not wrestling at CKLV I wouldn't say he's being rewarded for not being there, as he was already @#1. However, he didn't put it on the line this weekend. I'm a pack fan, but wouldn't have a problem with him dropping in rankings. Rankings are just someon's opinion anyway.

As far as Nico Provo: I have been told more than once on this board that Provo switching his commitment to Stanford from Cornell wasn't really a loss to the Big Red program 'because he would never start over Ungar or Greg D.' Well, after having a great tournament this weekend, he has made it look like a big loss to Grey's program. Either Koll knew this kid had greater potential than Ungar or he's received better coaching in Palo Alto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but that wasn't what I was hearing when I brought up Provo as someone Koll took with him. I was hearing '3rd stringer at best, no big loss.' Not bad for a 3rd stringer.

1032004 Posted December 6, 2023 Author Share Posted December 6, 2023 Flo did it. Provo to #1. I don’t hate it. Intermat again went the other extreme (like when they only put Crookham at #5 after beating Vito and Flo had him #1) and only put him at #4. I don’t get keeping Figueroa ahead of him at this point considering he hasn’t wrestled at all. Although the odd thing to me is with Crookham Intermat now put him #1. If they didn’t have him above Fix before, not sure why beating Nagao puts him above Fix… There are some weird things with Flo’s rankings but I’ll give them credit for trying to be consistent. Intermat seems to include a bit more of “the eye test,” which is fine but can be harder to defend IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats why you see young guys not ranked on Flo but you do on Intermat. Personally I think it would be hard ranking and not using the eye test but that's just me.

Interviewed_at_Weehawken Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 I get the argument for Provo being #1 because Camacho did not show up for CKLV. The main issue that I have is that other wrestlers are not held to the same standard. Interesting fact is that these two studs, Provo and Camacho, went to high school about twenty minutes away from each other in the wrestling hotbed of Connecticut.
