Even if it was 10-0, the complete scoring sequence has to be finished before the match is stopped.

Portal doesn't apply to anyone. You can transfer without entering it.

By way of Jersey and Rutgers.

That would be correct. I think these 2 are the clear front-runners with some debate on which takes the cake. Rough math says there were 45 tournaments between 1979-2025. 450 brackets. 2 had no top-4 seed (0.4%) in the semifinals. 900 semifinal matches. 67 of those didn't include a top-4 seed (7.4%). You'd expect 0.56% brackets to not have a top-4 seed, which lines up.

Since 1979 when the 12 seed era began there have only been 67 semifinal matches that didn't include a top-4 seed. The following brackets didn't have a top-4 seed in the semis at all: 1981 - 190 (5, 8, 11, US) [Placers were 8, US, 5, 11, US, 1, US, US] 2006 - 157 (5, 9, 10, 11) [Placers were 5, 10, 7, 1, 11, 9, 6, 8] Fun Fact - Joe Johnson was in the semis against a non-top 4 seed in back-to-back years in 2005 (#8 vs. #5 Percival) & 2006 I think 1981 may take it.

According to Brian Swaw, Ruth didn't get another year and so it'll be Kelly at 174 and Moore at 184.

Do not contact means they don't want every school calling. Typically, at that point they have a good idea of where they want to go and reach out directly or let those coaches know that they want to be contacted.

Uhhhh yes. I think. Ha It's a tool available for athletes to use to help facilitate the transfer, but they don't have to use it.

The portal only allows you to be recruited by another institution. It isn't a requirement to enter to transfer. Just tells the other programs you want to be contacted.

I quit my job back at the beginning of 2023 to travel around for most of the year. Have yet to find a new one since due to the fun of the government. However, previously to that I was an instructor, and spent a lot of time in the classroom with nothing to do for 8+ hours a day. That's when I started doing all of the data gathering. No kids. Just really enjoy getting/researching data/history.

That's why I always go a week or so early to explore. I really wanted to explore all of Croatia but didn't want to rent a car. I'll just explore Zagreb and some other localish stuff for a week before it starts. I'm going to train over to Italy and hang out there for a week after. My flights are actually in and out of Rome because it's less than half the cost of flying direct to Croatia.

I’ll be out there the 8th-22nd. Got a hostel near the city center.

I’ll be there!

You don’t have to be in the portal to transfer. The portal allows you to be recruited by others. If they want to go they would be able to. Just enroll at Northern Colorado.
