Tag Drake in I’m sure he’s up for wrestling whenever he can.

Well it looks like the Lee picks the winner. Who would have thunk it.

It’s been awhile since I’ve heard, so these days many challenges do a team get to use during the NCAA Championship?

Jason Tsirtsis during his title run seems like a none HWT contender for this. Seemed like almost all his matches were low scoring sudden victory wins.

Kuch Dang thought he was out of eligibility by now.

Michigan found an extra year for Micic.

I can see Slap Fighting as the next logical step.

Feel like Micic would have found a loop hole to get another year if he wanted to.

I’d suspect that the reality of most programs big and small these days. It’s becoming a little less big vs small schools and a little more access to the academies. Academy access is indeed forming pools of super teams at large schools in some area especially with open enrollment. But having access to them is also likely helping to convince a few kids to remain at their smaller schools now too, that is if they can also convince a few training parents to remain there too.

If you are in the Philly area stay safe. It’s going to be a rough night.

Kinda like Takedown calls in the middle of the mat vs. takedown calls on the edge.

She take your breath away?

Pretty sure Junior Jacob Moran at IU (who also had a gap year) was finally reaching 125 sustainably last year. So give Steen a few more years.

UFC seems to want to make him a priority this yet. As long as he reminds exiting in fights to fans I think he get to some ranked fights relatively quickly. But agree he likely won’t be near title fight status before next year. Not to mention Dana does like to slow roll the hyped on a few big names as they get closer to a title to ensure the most fan interest. So you have to figure if he’s running through some talented people Dana will give him 3 top 10 fighters prior to the title.

Wonder how fast Indiana is skyrocketing up that ladder after beating Maryland earlier this week??

Not a fan of consistent play by play calls. We are watching the video so we can see the action. Anyone paying for it clearly knows the basic moves. Announcer should really be there for background info, occasional in match technique insight, and some commentary when something causes a big match swing. Let the rest of the match play out with the crowd noise.

And so loud compared to the broadcast volume. I swear my speakers about piped a few times when a intermission or add comes on.

Momir has a grandson currently on the Wolverine wrestling team, which he had been working with through high school. So continuing that family connection may have played a factor in his decision to help their program.

Seems reasonable considering what it gets the country as a result.

I think that close. Send a participant to to PanAm Championships to gets you to send a wrestler to Worlds. Olympics you have three routes. 1. Medal at Worlds or now win a special bronze medal loser wrestle off at an Olympic weight. 2. place top 2 in the Continental Championship. 3. I believe they just changed the Last Chance Qualifier to the top 2, plus the winner of a special bronze medalist wrestle-off.

For the most part. They do have a few others dancing around the Top 20 rankings, but consistency is still not there.

Honestly I don’t think Jordan really wants the job. He is able to be much more of that attack dog from where he is currently than if he was made Speaker. The Speaker is tasked more with keeping the House flowing and in some cases having to bargain with the opposing side to move bills along. Jordan has more freedom call out the Dems by remaining where he is without the issue of taking the Speakers blame for the House being completely stalled out for the next two years. In sports terms he likes being the team enforcer and you don’t usually make that type your team captain.
