I only ever started this thread to start a conversation. that has already been achieved and Kevin has it going strong. I am sorry, I didn’t mean to over step if I did . I really appreciate you creating this thread. If not for that I would have never posted on here. Some people prolly like yours better cause it is easier to read!

And regarding my comment about Barr and Mesenbrink being the only two wrestlers left with 100% Bonus, there was no mistake on your part. I was just commenting on it, but I shouldn't have mentioned it after my comment on Byrd's spelling since it was obviously confusing and seemed to conflate the two topics. My bad!

At 125 and 133 I just think the B10 cannibalizes itself, not picking any specific guys. Updated Predictions: 125: Seymour 133: Forrest 141: Mendez, Vega, Stanich 149 : Joy, SVN, Tyus 157: Meyer 165: MM, Dee 174: Haines, Ruiz 184: NONE 197: Barr 285: Yonger, Trumble I think 16 is the realistic lower end of what we can expect

The dad has so much energy and enthusiasm. Great stuff.
Cornell Kevin Posted February 17 Posted February 17 Oliveri back on the saddle again improving to 14-0 with a tech fall ovet Princeton’s Martino. Martino did stick CJ Composto a few days ago.

That being said still pretty shocked, unfortunately it looks less and less likely anyone is pushing SVN at this dumpster fire of a weight. I am the personal property of VakAttack
CornellFan Posted February 21 Posted February 21 I'm biased, but Joy was the better wrestler there. Buesgens took 2(?) shots during regulation, and Joy should've had the takedown in the first period. I still like his chances against SVN, should they meet in March.
Cornell Kevin Posted February 21 Posted February 21 As of Saturday 12/21 Midnight. Down to 23. • #2 Jaxon Joy (21-1) suffers his first loss of season in SV to #4 Koy Buesgens (20-2). • #2 Simon Ruiz (13-0) prevails over #7 Matty Singleton (13-3) 8-6 after trailing 6-1. • #2 Meyer Shapiro (13-0) with his 7th tech fall of year. • Night off for #3 Caleb Tyus •Joey Blaze squeaks out a 4-3 win over Lillard. • The heard of Penn St wrestlers Lilldahl by DQ, Blaze & SVN by major, MM, Levi, Barr by pin, and Welsh by tech all remain unbeaten.
SocraTease Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Conference tournaments will reduce the following weight classes by at least one wrestler: 133 141 165 Of course, other wrestlers could go down as well.
Cornell Kevin Posted February 23 Posted February 23 This is it, last one before conferences, down goes Dee Lockett

Owen Rector Posted February 28 Posted February 28 Coming into conference championships here are some guys that could be knocked off that chart in the upsets that weekend has. 125: Lilledahl to Bouzakis 133: Blaze or Byrd will lose somewhere, Davino could knock of both 141: Mendez or Oliveri will lose somewhere, Echemendia could knock of Vega 157: Cannon could let one slip since he has been out for so long 165: Mesenbrink or Blaze will lose somewhere 184: Ferrari, McEnelly, or Fishback have a chance at knocking off Welsh 197: Merill held Elam to TB, could he reverse the result? Any other undefeated knock offs I would consider a major upset. Im excited to see how this plays out after next week. Ducking and taking time off is no longer an option, we will see all of them wrestle or they are done for the season.

Despite there being no official statement that SVN filed for a medical hardship waiver or was approved by the NCAA for one, this actually did take place recently. When I first started this project, that was not the case, however, things do change of course, as did this. I reached out to the Penn St athletic compliance office along with wrestling strategic communications and they just wrote me back thanking me for checking back in and letting me know that SVN does in fact now have Junior eligibility status. Of course they did not go deeper into that in discussing the medical hardship, as I didn’t think that they would. Don’t need them too however as this means that he did get approval for it and fairly recently. It’s my bad I should’ve reached out to them before I initially told you that what you said was not correct.
Cornell Kevin Posted February 28 Posted February 28 Last regular season board, updated all rankings, Crystal ball, along with latest Coaches and RPI and SVN adjustment Then there were 22. The most we can enter NCAAs with is 19. I think we enter with 17 and have a good shot at tying the all-time high of 8 in 2022 come the end of NCAAs

You have shown yourself to be a man of high character and professionalism. That being said, there is no room for such good behavior on wrestling forums. If you can't be argumentative or hostile, post inane comments or threads, belittle those who may disagree with you, or be an all-around jerk, then I don't have much hope for you to reach the upper (or should I say lower?) ranks of wrestling forum posters : )
