  1. my only qualm with the qualification process is guys like Vito and dalton not really having an opportunity to challenge for the spot because it is during the collegiate season. Gillman could have and I wish he did but I know the cut is hard on him. In nicks case I think he was our best rep you could argue Alirez and I personally think he's gonna be our rep to try and qualify at last chance but given the last 12 months nick was the right guy so I can't fault that and he beat Yianni albeit the concussion muddied the waters a tad. I can see an argument that Yianni has more international pedigree so maybe you want him at an event like this but at the end of the day I think hindsight is 20/20. It could be foolish of me to say like even though he did not meet the criteria Spencer should have been allowed to try and compete to qualify the spot because well hes Spencer but I know you can't make exceptions.
  2. it'll be whoever wins the spot at trials!
  3. to put in perspective how hard it is to qualify at last chance JO lost to Gadzhiev who won worlds that same year following the olympics.
  4. he said he wants to devote all his time towards coaching. I feel like he likely makes some reappearances because I doubt a T,Th show for an hour from 8:30-10 hampers his ability to coach that much.
  5. im not sure how danny fongaro or jordan hamden snagged allocations over crook
  6. There's no wrestling this weekend aside from pan am's and NJ states so there was not really a ton for them to talk about aside from carter hypotheticals. Generally, Tuesdays they recap the weekend and Thursdays they do picks and talk about the upcoming duals. I personally enjoy the banter although it may lose some of its luster once ben is done.
  7. was there ever any confirmation on the tweet about carter dislocating his knee or was he talking out his ass again.
  8. I think hed likely still be our rep however I dont think he can compete with zare only training a little bit the past two years when zare has a guy like masoumi pushing him for his own team spot.
  9. Hope SVN can stay healthy seems like hes had the injury bug dating back to HS
  10. love the molton shout hes super athletic and has not lost since December which I think is something only one other 125'er Matt Ramos can say.
  11. Team that can beat penn state if they all get blessed by god the night before NCAA's and everything that could go wrong for psu does NC state Camacho stays in form wins 125 Orine draws in opposite side of fix and vito is not healthy/is cutting for trials already makes finals ryan jack reaches back on beau in the quarters like he did eierman but gets the fall call and then proceeds to beat whoever the 4 seed is makes the finals but loses because lightning cannot possibly strike 3 times Jackson arrington gets the first takedown on ridge then chooses neutral and proceeds to circle but gets 2 stall calls on ridge for getting himself pushed out. Goes on to stun henson in the finals. Ed scott throws people and gets a lot of pins AA's I got nothing at 165 Nc state says f it and pulls singletons red shirt for confrences and he shows why he beat gabe arnold in 2 matches at u20's takes out a hobbled carter in the semis and avenges his ACC finals loss to mehki (in this hypothetical he loses to mehki at acc's) Fishback steals all of tj stewarts speed like its space jam and AA's Trent beats Aaron in the finals (the most realistic prediction on here imo) and celebrates by punching himself with one hand and holding a hoagie with the other trephan AA's
  12. hes going to be an absolute nightmare to seed with wins over mendez,lachlan,jack,crook. I cannot name someone off the top of my head with better wins but he has a lot of really bad losses too.
  13. I think he was the clear #2 in Russia having beaten baev the last two times they wrestled 9-1 and 9-3 however that was almost 18months ago you could argue bizhoev or valiev but Zhamolov to me is the most talented guy at the weight. As you said he definitely lacks experience and savviness as well as perhaps the mental to win consistently but I think he can beat anyone in a given match certainly not a guy id want to draw in before the semis.
  14. gotta love mineo reporting news that no other outlet has reoprted and stating it like its fact.
  15. I agree the committee is allowed to move someone within one seed of what the formula spits out so I was saying I could see them moving carr to 1 and MM to 2 to avoid a Carr vs Keegan semi. Not entirely sure I would agree with that, but I think its possible.
  16. I'm not sure he can jump Jacori/Zerban assuming they win conferences and I don't know if blockhus takes second at big10's if he will pass him or potentially franek taking second, I should have said 4/5 although that seeding is rather immaterial.
  17. assuming meyer wins EIWA's (he should) I would imagine he slots in somewhere around 5-6 he has really good wins and if he does not win EIWA's hes just not beating levi.
  18. I think a 1 loss carr may still garner the 1 seed given his loss does not have a loss to MM and the committee can move within one spot of what the forumla spits out, and I doubt the consensus will be that KOT and carr should hit in the semis.
  19. I've heard across all of their athletics they put an extreme emphasis on technical perfection above anything else. That seems especially evident in their combat sports i.e. judo and wrestling.
  20. Im a big fan of that WVU team in general I think strickenberger,Titus,Watters,Hall could all end up on the podium
  21. I wish matty singleton was wrestling for NC state I think he would really push them to be possibly top 2
  22. This past weekend or two we've the seeming resurgence of Jakob camacho and richie figs. We also saw Tj stewart look absolutely incredible against dylan fishback. So it made me start thinking about lower seeded guys or guys that dont get the shine who could make noise at NCAA's and was wondering what your guys picks are. Me personally I like TJ, Figs and stephen little to do some serious damage relative to the publics perception of them.
  23. i'm a bit concerned with any of the guys that are content with 1 score matches I think surtin may be my pick I really thought he should have gotten backs against spratley and the neck does not seem to be an issue. If camacho can get the cut down I think hes a strong pick as well aside from the obvious ramos.
