who's weight classes????

I remember this well....I was sitting with Kelly's workout partner, and he said they had been working on that for sometime....he kept yelling "spladle, splade", and in my mind I thought "yea right!", and then it happened. After that, I became good friends with that guy....worked some wrestling camps with him....keeping his name anonymous.

Wasn't pinned....but it got called.....official didn't know what consisted of shoulder blades. His shoulders were resting on Caldwells stomach/chest (spladle situation)

After looking at this list again, I watch all but the first 3 guys wrestle more times than I can count...Midlands, Big Ten, NCAA, All-Star matches, duals.....my head is spinning.....lol. I'm a lucky dude!!

Thanks......here we go...

Here's a complete list of all the 4 time Big Ten Champions....

Not heavyweights either.

Here's Konrad

Here's Mocco....not even close!!

Remember, at one time we got no coverage....Big Ten, NCAA's....nothing.....it's getting better....."baby steps" I guess....we just have to keep putting our 2 cents in. You have coverage of Big12, Pac12, ACC now, but it's all split up, so to view it all you have to pay for it. But it's like I've said in defending Flo/Track. It costs a lot more to travel to, get tickets and lodging than it does to pay annual or monthly fees to view what interests you....same thing with high school state tournaments NFHS. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!

They were on multi-view on Big Ten+....I had that on my computer/monitor.....finals on my smart TV.

Gable only has one Olympic Gold and one World Gold.....just saying

Defeated John Peterson in '72 and Ben in '76 also a world champion in Sambo Wrestling

Alan was one of my very favorite high school wrestlers, along side Kolat....internationally my favorites will always be my team mate Sergei Belaglozov and (I'll throw Tediashvili in there as well)

If you don't count the loss his redshirt year.

Maybe WKN knows something!!! lol

He did win 3 NCAA titles and 3 National AAU tltles, but are you sure some of his 72 wins were freestyle????? He also became the first wrestler to be named OW in the NCAA tournament. His son, Rob wasn't too bad either.

Here's one.... https://www.facebook.com/reel/984938249811995

46-0 3 timer.

Personally, I don't think Metcalf was pinned by Caldwell at St. Ed's......while in the spladle, his shoulder blades were totally up on Darrion's torso. The only part of Brent on the mat was his butt and sacral area, and the shoulder blades don't go down that far.

Metcalf was a 4 time undefeated state champion and once labeled "King of Fargo", 3 time NCAA finalist/ 2 time champion....most of us wish we were that good....... Michigan: Brent Metcalf — Michigan is home to several all-time tournament greats. Adam Coon (six titles), Andre Metzger (five), Taylor Massa (four), Sabrina Nauss (four) and a host of three-time champs are among Michigan’s greats, but Metcalf tops the list with seven titles.

I stand corrected....I misread the list.

?????? current Olympic Gold Medalist???? , and there has been a 4 time Hodge winner and a few two timers, but has there been a 3 timer??????

He could just pivot on his knee and keep squaring up. I've coached two kids in my "over 40 years" of coaching and working wrestling camps who had limbs missing......one had one leg missing below the knee, the other had both legs missing below the knee, and they were very difficult to shoot on....the other kids in the room would get very frustrated. That's another reason I think it's very important to have a good front headlock/short offense, and a lot of guys, even coming out of high school, don't.

I you go to a knee, it pretty much eliminates a leg attack against you.....now the best option is limited to a short offense...snapdowns/go behind, and lot's of guys aren't that good at it. In addition, you need to get lower and ready to down block his shots because he's already changed levels.
