It's a weird tactic to spend so much time trash talking a wrestler and never wrestle said wrestler when given the chance...

He wasn't given the chance - that was taken out of his hands.

Agreed that the trash talking is stupid regardless.

Do we know for certain it wasn't his decision?

Kids can provide input but final decision is always the coach (despite what Askren seems to think).

I usually enjoy Askren's wrestling thoughts (despite his ignorant thoughts outside of wrestling), but I skipped his recent vid about Arnold for that reason

huh?

This guy has come on here and bashed Gabe and his family a few times. He does not like the Arnolds apparently and has just made stuff up in the past like saying that Gabe was held back years in school so that he could win in wrestling by being older (when Arnold actually is young for a college sophomore). Strange to say the least.

Yes, and you do too

So we have to assume Gabe just didn't know Brands wouldn't let him wrestle?  Otherwise it means Arnold was trash talking with full knowledge that he would never have to back it up.

Another possibility is Gabe was trying to influence the Brands' decision.

Craig Henning got screwed in the 2007 NCAA Finals.

What we don’t know is if there was any conversation between Brands and Arnold about the PSU match prior to Arnold making the callout.  I would assume not and at that time (post-match of their prior dual) Tom’s decision probably wasn’t even made yet. 

But Tom said it was his call (and that Arnold was upset about it).  I know he’s not always the most forthcoming if it involves strategy, but I doubt he would blatantly lie.
