That is sharp.

Let's get this out of the way first. I am not looking to break the bank here. So, maybe a Weller 12 year. Winning three coin flips with a fair coin comes in at a 12.5% probability (0.5^3). But Lockhart's flawless coin technique has already been discussed, so let's bump that up to 12.6%. Now let's talk about the probability of 5 consecutive 1 point wins. Using the 1988 - 2021 results we want to focus on the product of the DEC 1 line. Based on this history there is a 0.02% probability (11.34% x 15.34% x 19.85% x 26.67% x 23.64%) of five straight 1 point decisions. Combined with the enhanced coin flip probability we are now at 0.0027% probability of five straight 1 point wins with 3 successful coin flips. I will toast you every time I tipple.

1988 - 2021 data. I have talked about this. Now if you are looking to extend the data before 1988 or after 2021, I am listening.

Well, it is neither death nor taxes, so there is that. But I am pretty certain. There are only like two or three kinds of posts he ever puts up, and I do not feel like a fan would only put up the same kind of post all the time. There would be more variation, more variety. So to me it feels like someone who reserves that screen name for that particular style.

Yesterday it was all about efficiency. Scoring the minimum while moving on. Today it is about using every part of the wrestler. Exploring the space. Having some fun. As long as we are here we might as well stay...and score some points. Looking at the guys who were basking in the moment and enjoying the spotlight (all matches went the full seven minutes) shows 1994 was the year if you like scoring. Alan Fried scored 80 points (20-9, 19-8, 14-4, 12-4, 15-6) in five matches on his way to the 142 crown, while Lincoln McIlravy put up a not too shabby 78 points (28-16, 19-7, 10-4, 13-2, 8-3) in five victories at 150.

This is even more efficient than I initially realized. He essentially won by winning two coin flips. That is a level of economy of motion I can get behind. https://dailyillini.com/uncategorized/2010/02/11/illini-of-the-decade-14-john-lockhart/

The The is silent

Year? Weight? I demand details.

Nice. Of course, he only had four matches. WHICH IS EVEN MORE EFFICIENT. Kudos, Dale. We fellow loafers tip our hat.

I had to read that three times before I got it. Good one.

I think it is worth it to give it a try and see if it works.

Love that one. Jim goes Bye, 8-4, 6-3, 4-1, 3-2 National Champ - and his family says, "Why can't you be like your brother?" Bill went 26-8, Pinfall, Pinfall, 20-6, 13-4. Scoered more in one match than Jim did in four.

Those old brackets are tough for a couple reason. First, he only wrestled three matches, so his per match average was higher than any of our top 10 (5.33 vs 5.0 for 8, 9, and 10). Second, there was no overtime. He won the final on a ref's decision after being tied 2-2 at the end of regulation. The lack of OT puts a cap on scoring, just ask our hero, JT.

Man, I would like that too. Alas, your author is too lazy.

As a fan parody account I read everything Ironbird says as a joke, but yes, he did complain about Woods' opponent stalling in a TF.

As anyone who has paid attention to my posts knows, there are a couple of things I hate for their laziness. The generic claims of ducking and stalling. Here we will ignore the former and focus on the latter. I loooooove @pmilk's posts on strategy. After all one man's strategy is another man's stalling. And this can be very tribal. All you need to do to see that is read some of the posts on HR by their fan parody account Ironbird. A recent perfect example is yesterday he complained that Woods would have won by more if the opponent hadn't stalled. In the same post he referred to Arnold's "tuff ride/mat returns to wear a guy down and kill some clock". You know because one is clearly stalling, but the other is strategy. Blah, blah, blah. Digging through @grogs84 data for the 1988 to 2021 NCAA tournaments I thought I would find the wrestlers who won a title while scoring the fewest points. To do this I narrowed it down to wrestlers who won all of their matches by decision on their way to a title. Let's call them the Efficient Eight (really 10 with ties, but I do love alliteration). Why score any more than you need to? It's not like you can use those extra points in later matches. Conserve energy. Don't let 'em see your moves on tape. Good luck scouting all my moves when I only use one per match, if that many. Now that is just smart wrestling. The heavies are, um, heavily represented with 6 of the 10, but it is a middleweight who shall lead them all. While it saddened me to see that no one had won five straight 1-0 matches in OT, Jason Tsirtsis at 149 in 2014 came closest, having won his 5 matches 4-1, 4-3, 2-1 (OT), 2-1 (OT) and 3-1 (OT) for a 15 point total (only 12 in regulation time, awesome). Does anyone know of any wrestlers pre-1988 or post 2021 to score fewer than the world's most efficient wrestler**? *Ok, Ten, so The Taut Ten? ** Guinness verification pending.

Not sayin'. Just sayin'.

That is not how it works. When you promote a tweet, you promote the whole tweet. This is social media 101. And a guy like this who lives on twitter, knows this. The Hitler part is impossible to dismiss.

Not incidental. He gave the final, big torque well after the whistle.

Matt Lee

Just watched his consi loss. I think Matt Lee would agree with you.

That is old Musakaev. He seems to have solved that problem.

The thing I found most hopeful was that there was only one knee sleave, no braces, and when Megaludis torqued on the sleaved knee in the first 30 seconds there appeared to be no issues for Lee. No grimace, no limp, no shaking it off, just return to center and go.

If by backed off you mean sticking to their guns, then sure, backed off. They are sticking with their three game penalty.
