  1. Jackson and Pollack didn't publish their groundbreaking research using skinfold analysis to predict body density (leading to body fat percentage) until November 1978. And you had nurses performing this in the 70s?
  2. When you say Simpson, do you mean Nick Ackerman?
  3. Tell me about it. And for a while my coach wanted me to weigh in at 171 so he had the option to bump me up. Walked around at 182, cut to 171, almost always bumped up to 189. Finally he let me just wrestle 189 without weighing in at 171.
  4. 140, 160, 171, 189 (9th-12th grade)
  5. How confident are you that AJ can get into Wisconsin?
  6. Ryder is not a returning finalist, like Jenkins was when Carl ran him off to make room for his brother.
  7. I thought they didn't recruit him. Didn't Welsh essentially contact them and ask to join?
  8. Penn State is the number one place. You have to understand that there will be competition for starting spots, because each spot realistically represents a NC wrestler. We are at the point where you don't go to Penn State and expect to start unless you are capable of winning a NC each year.
  9. Rick Sanders, Stan Dziedzic? Wait, you mean in Greco? Nevermind.
  10. Bono beat Mike Uker in the 1996 NCAA Wrestling tournament.
  11. It would be interesting to devise a metric that combines Dominance and Quality of Competition.
  12. I guess the debate comes down to the worth of specific Olympic Gold medals, which I understand. I suppose there could be arguments made for certain Olympic Silver or Bronze medals to be "worth" more than certain Olympic Golds. That's why we have message boards!
  13. If you can't put someone in the top 5 without an Olympic gold, how do you leave out someone with two Olympic golds?
  14. Hamiti did look very improved. Hard to tell how much was the weight class change. I have no idea how he made 165 for three years.
  15. Brands challenging a stall call.
  16. The flag issue is silly. The flag is not exclusive to Olympic Champions, just is it is not exclusive to members of the military. An interesting note from the US Flag Code: “The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding or drapery. It should never be festooned, drawn back, nor up, in folds but always allowed to fall free.”
  17. Mercenaries 3 for 3
  18. One year mercenaries won the last two matches. Can Farva make it three in a row?
  19. They just said that Buchanan showed up in Wyoming after high school graduation and then didn’t leave. Huh?
  20. Ref blows it dead right away and then says “we gotta wrestle out of that.”
  21. Hamiti probably scored more offensive points in this final than all of Fix’s finals
  22. Tervel
