GOATs who were pinned in college

[Jimmy Cinnabon]

Thinking about some GOAT college wrestlers who got pinned:

1. David Taylor (Bubba Jenkins in the finals)
2. Spencer Lee (by Ramos and Piccininini)
3. Kyle Snyder (by Gadsen)
4. Imar (by Joseph in the finals, Nolf)
5. Brett Metcalf (by Caldwell)
6. Myles Martin (by Nickal in the finals)

Who else am I missing?

 

Who are some GOATs who never got pinned in college?

Ruth, Dake, Retherford, Nolf, Nickal, Steveson, Cox?

Carr in OT in 2023

Brooks got pinned by Marcus Coleman they just did not call it. Kollin Moore is not a goat but the kyle conel pin always sticks in my brain.

I know you already said he isn't a GOAT but he got his a$$ kicked by conel and his bum rush again in the same tournament....there was nothing weird about it.

Came here looking for this.

Was this just a sideways way of approaching the concept of “who had the coolest pin”?

Ramos and Rohn take the cake on that front, followed by kyle dake winning the olympic spot in 2021.

By definition there is only one GOAT.  The GOAT was never pinned.

Of course maybe the jimmybon is making up a goat for every weight class, maybe a fr so jr sr etc goat for each weight class X non rs vs rs goat, east coast west coast great plains goats.  Yeah that'd be a lot of goats and maybe one of em got pinned.  

 

@PortaJohn please help us, we need this thread dumped down the ... well you know.

Not a GOAT, but Gabe Dean (3,1,1,2 isn't shabby) was pinned by Ed Ruth early in his freshman year.

[GimJustafan]

He's the reason they made a new rule about being able to pin yourself.

pretty sure not, you could pin yourself before Heil

[Pinnacle]

Pretty sure I saw Jimmy Gulibon pin Dean Heil, but Angel Rivera had his blinders on.

The Romney kid lost a decision to Baily last weekend, thats sort of like the GOAT getting pinned.
