He definitely was. Brooks is still #1 and I don't think that win is replicable for Coleman, but that's not the point. On that day in that match, Brooks was pinned.

Lol. Sure thing, buddy.

Brooks will (and should) stay #1. But he was also stuck.

Like I said. Gymnastics. Could Wisconsin do something to allow him to compete this season?

As always, if she gets me, it stays up as a monument to my failure.

I love penis

Again, it's gross to debate semantics as you literally take away a part of the young man's very limited asset: his collegiate wrestling ability. Once his college wrestling career is over, Chris Bono will still be coaching, and the AD will still be ADing, but this kid will not get another shot to compete in college wrestling. Saying he has an opportunity to compete in a weight where they literally brought an experienced All American into the weight requires such mental gymnastics, I can't believe we're even doing it. Kyle Burwick has no opportunity to wrestle for Wisconsin this season. They preferred Taylor LaMont. He is now wrestling for him. And now they are stopping him from competing elsewhere.

Exactly. The only person suffering in this scenario is Burwick. If Burwick were allowed to wrestle, nobody would be suffering anything because Wisconsin STILL HAS THERE PREFERRED 133 POUND WRESTLER COMPETING.

This clinging to technicalities and ignoring of facts while playing with the collegiate athlete's limited asset (his eligibility) is gross. They recruited a former All-American at his weight class. The writing is pretty clearly on the wall, and also, that's not the scenario he signed up for. Under your scenario, the only one who owes any loyalty is the one with less power, the very young adult who only has 5-6 chances to compete at this level. The wrestling team can do as it likes to improve themselves and their situation, but Burwick can not. And then you have this guy essentially celebrating the guy losing a year of eligibility. Sad all around.

Man, the bad-faith defense of Bono is pretty incredible in here.

Imagine doing all this, risking your rep over trying to force a kid to stay at your institution. And not even like some crazy high level kid! And a kid you literally just brought somebody in to wrestle their weight! What a needlessly self-inflicted wound.

Chris Bono, despite being a Floridian, is definitely Not My Homie.

Thinking about this for 15 minutes and I still can't believe. It's like Bono thought he was the only one who got the email, so he could just post whatever he wanted and go unchallenged.

Geezus, Bryan Snyder went Nas on him. That's an "Ether" level response.

Just to be clear, Minnow's first report was that Glory would be up at 133. I know he backtracked, but it couldn't possibly be funnier that he wrestled his very next possible match at 125.

Eh. Andonian has been hurt all year. The Mizzou guys have been wrestling. It's a little different. As most of you are aware, I am not a Mizzou fan, lol.

Mizzou not wrestling their "A" lineup today.

Meh. Neither guy is REALLY an AA threat in my mind. I could see them sneaking into the R12, though, so maybe I'm underselling. In that scenario, all it takes is the right draw or the right higher seeded guy whose injured or struggling and suddenly you're on the podium. I don't think either of the guys in question is truly on that level, which is why I didn't think much of note happened.

Not a whole lot of note in the dual, but the Chattanooga heavy messed with the bull and got the horns, lol.

Ahhh yes, the notable overperformers in Lincoln, though....

I don't think O'Toole loses. He's That Dude at the weight. Mark Hall being the previous years champ is not factored into NCAA seed, I don't believe. He lost the 1 seed probably indirectly from the All Star match, but the match was not counted by the NCAA. The truth is, as I remember it, Zahir had a better season outside of his head to head win in the exhibition anyway.

Imagine being such a sad person that thinking that calling somebody a woman was an insult.

Lol. What a coward, can't even stand behind his bs.

Aren't you the guy who lost your mind off of an innocuous Irish person joke? Seems weird to be throwing around casual misogyny.

That was a funny visual.
