It was thats my mistake I knew he was on the roster and at 133 bad assumption on my end.

mizzou not using Sinclair there is weak sauce

Yianni got double boots in over the top in the NCAA finals to force OT against McKenna I believe in 2019? super similar situation but people said it should not have been a takedown for Yianni it was not ruled one here idk.

scramble towards the end of the third where Keegan went to split the legs I think was a great example of free vs folk.

anyone just get yianni d McKenna ptsd?

Beau and Edmond are the same exact wrestler Beau is just a lot more skilled and maybe even a slightly better athlete but they are both freaks.

Walker is going to be good had Jax dead to rights a few years ago at u17's and wrestled Luke really close both times they met last year. Kind of similar styles honestly.

Barr's tank just seems to be a lot better than these guys. I wonder if growing into the weight is benefiting him more than these guys cutting down into it. Will be interesting if that proves to still be beneficial against Ferrari and Buchannen.

Dragein Missouri kid spent some time at sem hes a freshman

just now tuning in has rokfin been having issues?

the only time I ever recall him getting ridden out was this tournament last year against Vito. He can generate offense from neutral but he seems to have started coasting and then expecting to win the match with a few flurries which is just not going to work against the better guys. I do wonder if the cut is getting to him a bit and he does not have confidence going under and having to work in the third. He looked either hurt or dead tired against Chattanooga at the end there, he's and enormous 133 so I would not be shocked if hes having issues managing the weight.

Sakamoto is enrolled at Okie state and just won what I believe to be japans version of nationals someone correct me if I'm wrong please. He is currently red shirting but the DT effect seems to just keep spreading.

at the time of making the team he would still be in high school I believe trials will be in April.

Bo - 174> 184> 197> 202.4 > 213.4 > 189 > 185

PSU seems to do really well coaching their guys to have that next best thing mentality. A lot of times a guy will lose on the front side who is expected to push for potentially a title, and they just check out on the backside. PSU guys seem to wrestle the backside just as well as they do the frontside which is saying something. That being said I do not think Davis aa's as of now and contrary to what I just said if Beau were to say get a guy like Hardy in the quarters I could see him maybe dropping that match and potentially checking out being he's in his 6th year and its pretty much title or bust for him at least in his expectations I would imagine.

Matches that can go v-techs way 125 133 141 149 157 (I think this match is either 30 total points or one guy hits a big move and the other guy gets pinned or ends up chasing and shooting himself out of the match. I went with Fish by fall but I could just as easily see Hip by some form of bonus as well) 197 I predicted okie state by 33 but if v-tech had something like a 10–12-point lead at the intermission I would not be totally shocked.

125: Spratley DEC Ventresca (3-0 OKST) 133: Witcraft DEC McGonagle (6-0 OKST) 141: Jamison DEC Latona (9-0 OKST) 149: Henson DEC Young (9-3 OKST) 157: Fish fall Hipolito (15-3 OKST) 165: Amine DEC Church (18-3 OKST) 174: Hamiti MAJ Wolak (22-3 OKST) 184: Plott TECH Stewart (27-3 OKST) 197: Surber DEC Smith (30-3 OKST) 285: Hendrickson Pin Mullen (36-3 OKST) I think there is an alternate universe where tech can win this 18-12

assuming PSU is out given lineup stuff (probably not a good assumption) given his freestyle aspirations I think Okie state is the best landing spot. Perhaps Iowa will shill out the most money but I will be cheering for an okie state landing spot however my favorite destination would be him staying at Ohio State. I do believe Ladarion is probably not long for weekly weigh ins at 165 so I would imagine Rocco will still need to go up to 184 at some point for okie state. They also have Brayden Thompson who would occupy 174/184 so it may just be that Dee has to cut weight for awhile or Thompson is SOL.

Ill throw in some off the board ones because I think everyone has covered the main ones Ech vs Mendez/Alirez/Beau: I think Chittum burning his red shirt means that Iowa State is bumping everyone down. Ech honestly should have beaten both Ridge and Parco I do not think anyone is as prolific on top at 141 as Ridge or Parco perhaps Mendez or Hardy but I really think Echemendia could play spoiler to what is otherwise seemingly an anointed finals. Lilledahl vs Ramos vs Robinson vs Richie figs: all of these style matchups would be very fun in any iteration Hamiti vs Haines or Keegan: Probably going to be Keegan and Levi at the end of the day but Dean is still young compared to probably every senior in the country I believe he is 21 so I think he would still be developing anywhere but being with David I really think the best is yet to come for him. Meyer vs kasak: Jacori if healthy could play spoiler but his match is going to look similar vs anyone can they take him down when they get to his legs. Meyers health is also a big question mark but his skill and athleticism are undeniable.

wilochell looked toast 2 minutes into the match, however the pace SVN put on him was also absolutely insane so hard to say it was not just that.

If we are doing simply from last year to this year I'm going Eddie ventresca. 2-7 vs d1 comp to 10-1 but even if you look at the year he AA'd he was 15-7 going into NCAA's.

Keegan is stellar out of the crackdown position that's where he beat carr when they wrestled. Levi has an uncanny ability to get his knees under him and pull shots in perhaps that situation plays out differently if keegan can funk and leg pass, but I feel like thats going to be a crucial point in the matchup and I give the edge to levi there.

He is joining Mccorts 157lbr who placed at ironman, who also happens to be former teammates with the two guys that were once committed to Cornell and then psu and then Rutgers. His name escapes me though.

Year 1: Duke goes right away, Kasak RS's Levi uses last year of eligibility. year 2: Kasak 157 Duke bumps to 165 MM goes 174 (not because he grows into it but because he will win it anyway) Duke said he intends to make the 70kg world team this year so I would imagine he's trying to keep his weight relatively in check for the time being.

174: Hamiti 10% 125: Ramos 20% 157: Shapiro 25% 197: Cardenas 30% 133: Crookham 31% 149: Henson 40% 141: Mendez 50% 184: Cstar 65% 165: MM 95% 285: Gable 99%
