    This is hilarious, Brock Hardy is tremendous for taking this in stride.  The caldwell metcalf spladle might have been at least as big as this.

    There have been some famous one.  To the hardcore fans like us I can see ranking Caldwell/Metcalf above Mendez/Hardy but Hardy takes the cake in this age of social medial.  It's far more famous to world.

    True, but everyone is dropping Logan down the list due to astericks such as his final with JO, who was an all-time great. Also because he lost to Zain, another all-time great when he had the flu.

    The best person Brooks ever faced in college was Trent Hidlay, who got 4th place behind Kaleb Romero just last year. Just throwing more asterisks in since they seem to be valid in this argument. 

    Amine is his best victory, Keck #2 (Parker was 2-1 vs Hidlay), Trent #3

    This too.  JB is competitive to a fault, DC was trying to have fun and be jovial, but JB is just such an aggressive competitor, he didn't really fill the role of great broadcast partner.  I still think David Taylor would have been perfect in there instead of JB.  He did such a good job on the event he covered earlier this season.  

    I agree with this.  I like JB as a commentator but he could tone it down talking about JB

    It was after after Storacci finishes his post match interview where he divided not to disclose the injury. JB said “he knows a guy that will be there in April” and  “I would go right after that injury”.  Guessing that was not the tact Nickal expected after someone just won his 4th title while injured.  

    Makes a lot more sense now.

    I do recall JB adding in that he’d have no problem going after the leg at the trials in a few weeks. I’m guessing that added comment may have been what led to Nickal’s post.  Sure it’s what anyone would be thinking if you want to make the Olympic Team, but when you are hired to be ann unbiased commentator for a college event I’m not sure you need to make that type of statement on the air. 

    Was that in the post match?  That adds an extra layer to this spat between the two

    If that's essentially what happened (and I know this isn't a transcript, but a description) I'm back on the "WTF is Nickal doing right now?"  This is entirely proper discussion and analysis from Burroughs.

    Yes, DC asked the question & all Burroughs said was "I'd attack it like crazy".  He might've said "I'd be attacking..."  That was it.  And then within 2 tweets Bo challenged him to a fight.

    I meant whatever Burroughs said on the broadcast that started it.

    From what I remember it was DC asking JB if he was Rocco Welsh would he be attacking that knee constantly.  JB responded he would attack it like crazy.  Conversation transitions to talking about hand fighting.

    What I found most fascinating during the broadcast was DC talking about having the brackets early and Star initially was the #7 seed and they reseeded and put him at the 9 seed

    I am as big of a PSU fan as there is but Bo Nickal really is just stupid. I’m gonna assume this is real but even it isn’t Nickal is still a moron, but this is something he would say. 

    It didn't stop there.  It got even better!  Personally post finals night wrestling social media and forums are our Xmas!!!
