where would their backups finish as a team at NCAAs? Wrestling should allow 2 per weight per school. Track and field, swimming and gymnastics do. Why not us?

Incontrera seems to be way over ranked. He is getting smoked in the finals.

extremely watered down tournament. sure isn't what is was when I was competing.

there is no reason to engage this piece of crap. they are an anti white anti christian scummer.

ah yes, your bigotry against white christians shows up again. delete your account, you scum bag.

Battisto is really good. He needs to be on the NCAA Championships broadcast.

he is an ncaa champ. did you forget that part?

Ferrari is not in the bracket. Damn. Was looking forward to some antics.

gulp.... If he doesn't enter, the bet is voided. just like player prop bets.

A lot can happen between now and March. Predetermined matchups at NCAAs rarely happen. The brackets are filled with landmines. Bartlett could win NCAAs without having to beat either of these guys. Mendez sure looks dominant right now, but its December.

I like it. Deal. Virtual handshake.

Even more rare is an injury to one of Cael's guys that Cael can't heal by thinking about it.

I guarantee you are right about this. There is NO WAY that he is eating 6K vegan calories.

I'd bet on him making the finals. Let's not make it dependent on your luck in Vegas. Let's just make a $100,000 intermat bucks bet.

you know how you tell if someone is a vegan? don't worry, they will tell you.

I'll take that bet. How much you in for?

Harbaugh wears cleats. I'd like to see wrestling coaches in wrestling shoes. Better for the mats.

the dims have nobody who is a decent candidate. gavin slimey newsome? big mike obama? they have nothing at all.

great share. ty

I wonder if it is possible to put theoretical values on being on top like the guy who wrote the paper who influenced the coach who never punts? https://eml.berkeley.edu/~dromer/papers/JPE_April06.pdf Someone smarter than me with numbers could probably do a theoretical model.

I'm sure many of you have heard about the football coach who never punts and always onsides kicks. For those who haven't: https://bleacherreport.com/articles/1849595-high-school-coach-who-never-punts-explains-his-strategy In MLB, there has been an emphasis on home runs and a de-emphasis on batting average because of analytics. In basketball, there is an emphasis on 3 point shots because of analytics. Is wrestling lagging behind the analytics revolution? 3 point takedowns have started to balance out the value of certain scoring events, but I have a hunch that there is a huge edge that is being ignored because of traditional thinking and because its risky - top wrestling. Hear me out. What % of matches does wrestler A win when he turns wrestler B for a 4 point near fall? How likely is it that after turning someone once that you are able to turn them again? How much time do we spend on top wrestling during practice? If your partners in your room are beasts on top, will you become really good on bottom, negating the risk of being turned? What if a program spent 90% of their time mat wrestling and 10% on neutral? I think neutral is the emphasis in most rooms, it certainly was in mine. Should wrestling coaches consider choosing top every time? The other possibility is a pin, which in duals has a HUGE value. The risk is an escape in most cases, so maybe the upside is greater than the risk? In basketball you only have to shoot 30% from 3 to make high volume 3 point shooting make sense. I wonder about the rates in wrestling. Long post, I know, so the summarize - is wrestling overlooking the high potential value of top wrestling while also under developing top wrestling skills?

I met him a couple times and was impressed that he levitates without touching the ground when he walks. Never seen that before.

This is one of the most disturbing posts in the history of wrestling forums. I am disgusted, but also impressed you found a way to be more vile than a bunch of insane wrestling fans.

President Trump is a 2:1 favorite in the Vegas/Offshore books right now. In fact, he is now more of a favorite to win than at any time while Biden was the candidate. Interesting times!
