more so thinking about his match with tom crook last year that he got beat quite badly in. I think he would have a very hard time finishing on longer guys and while hes very good on bottom against guys who throw legs he seems to struggle against more conventional rides even at 133.

I am also not a PSU fan but ultimately it will count as a win and not effecting seeding in anyway also kinda evens out the illegal cutback Vinnie hit on him at dapper dan I guess. I just think this reaction time thing is crazy I personally did not think it was even a position where danger needed to be counted I thought he was on his back long enough that it was just a takedown.

I have admittedly only watched Nic at the clarion open V-tech dual and CKLV but that was far and away the best hes looked especially getting to legs. I think he may have some weight cut issues because he looked in all honesty bad at clarion and on day one at CKLV he looked terrible. If I recall national duals was also a two day weigh in so that may be something to look out for at big 10's and NCAA's. Unfortunately for him I don't think he has the frame for 141 and I assume cannon will go 149 moving forward and Jesse will stay at 141.

I think he would have been our rep for at least two cycles more than likely however I do think he matured so early that his progression from when we last saw him to now may have not been that extreme so I don't know that we can say for sure he would've been medaling every year given how strong 65kg is, but I do think wed have a gold or two from 2017 to now.

major takeaways. Davis is not a lock to AA, Kasak is a dog, Mitchell can go to both sides 20 different ways, Welsh can freaking handfight, Rogotzke is going to look for a chin whip for 7minutes, Kirk is enormous, Mendez and beau is gonna be close everytime.

Not picking kade to beat Daton by any means but I think this match is going to have a lot of really fun exchanges and I fully expect to see both guys try and hit an inside trip or 3

My initial thought when seeing this was Carr easily, but after thinking about it a bit more hall has a style very similar to Ramirez (not as powerful) so I could see hall snagging a takedown or two somewhere. Keegan really melted Hall though and I think could have scored more had he committed to his leg attacks earlier and Carr is probably the best finisher in the country once hes on someones legs so still definitely taking Carr but hall could certainly make it fun.

Vito seems to be a bad matchup for Daton having won their last two meetings once in freestyle once in folk. While im not saying its impossible for Daton to beat him I think he'd need Vito to be off which we've seen happen. I do like Daton against crookham as well as nagao and ragusin. Ragusin is a guy I could see posing Vito issues he reminds me a lot of Latona with his body type but I think he punishes errant shots better than Latona and is much quicker to the corner.

Brayden palmer with one day weigh ins is a natty champ Brayden palmer with two days however thats a diff story. he started his career at 141 I believe

the app is updated to the 22nd the website is the 29th from what ive seen

I think similarly to quentin he was on a roster with such dominant bonus machines he gets a bit forgotten. On another program he would be one of the first names to come to mind as an all timer.

Davis vs Mccrone: I think davis should win this rather easily mccrone is sorta funky and could pose issues on top but after davis got away from deagustino i doubt mccrone does anything more than potentially get a leg in and some riding time while davis works out of it nagao vs bouzakis: nagaos speed to the leg and nics seeming inability to keep guys off his legs seems like a recipe for a lot of takedowns. I think i would actually caution nagao from throwing legs as nic seems to have a very good feel from bottom and shift his weight really well + hes incredibly explosive. Aside from nic catching something I could see nagao pushing for bonus here especially if he takes him down and flattens him out. match of the dual: I could see this match going one of two ways. Jesse really picking his spots and having limited output and it coming down to beaus scrambling and leg defense as to who gets the takedown. Or jesse shooting himself out of the match. I dont really see a world where Jesse wins this by more than one score I believe alirez is the only person to do that both in folk and free since beaus decent, its a toss-up in my book. 149: personally, I think dylan has had a very good year Austin is just that dude. I favor Dylan in the match, but it feels like a blood round type of match it should show if kasak is ready to push for the podium. 157: could see haines push for the major expecting something like 5-2 maybe 8-2 wilcox is pretty tough 165: I really rate hepner hes scrambly and good on top. I think he keeps it to a decision but if mitchell gets on his offense early Hepner is almost certainly going to fade late so it could get ugly in that instance =. 174: welsh handfights like hes a 5th year and holds position very well, Carter is Carter. I think it takes a bit for carter to find his first takedown but then he puts on a tough ride and breaks welsh and it snowballs from there. 184: I have no idea bernie hasnt looked great since the all star to me and idk who osu is wrestling 197: geog is pretty tough that said aaron ends it early third or before the third. 285: I dont know that there is a worse matchup for feldman i think dan could snag his ankle without bending and he also has like 40lbs on him.

My favorite scenes from the film were after Yianni lost match two showing everyone's mixed emotions as well as Yianni in the tunnel I thought that was a pretty powerful shot. As well as just how much Grey and Frank care for those guys. Im sure most every coach is like that, but it just was very prevalent in the film with how they would speak to Vito before and during his matches.

not taking anything away from him because hes very strong but he lifts especially when hes dumbbell pressed from what ive seen look like they are loading his joints a lot and are also not controlled and in a short range of motion. So I wonder if doing that over the years has hindered his rom and speed. I know boxers will train explosive reps but thats usually over a full range and with nowhere even remotely close to a max load.

I think Kaleb may be focusing on trials. I personally do not think hes a factor but coming off of his BF win im guessing hes putting his focus towards that I would imagine the cut to 143 point whatever is brutal for him his a long dude.

apologies this was for more mspart I just quoted you because you summarized everything else very well!

What brought me to make the thread is he just took third at the zegreb open losing to amirezza azirpeli (I likely butchered that) 8-7 amirezza then went on to beat Snyder in the finals 6-3 ive not seen the matches so it could've been some flukey stuff or just a matchup thing I just found it interesting @mspart

for his mma career its mildly concerning because ive seen him training his striking since he left okie state and there has been seemingly no progression

Ben said on FRL that once mocco graduates keegan will move up to 174. I dont know if thats just his assumption or if they have talked about it. I would assume he will try and enter the 4x champ category especially since its still only his 5th year since he did not redshirt.

hmm I was quite young for both of them but at least for me personally I remember watching kyle beat david at WTT and that setting up there all star match and from there it was like the talk of the season I dont recall dean vs Nickal having quite the same hype that could have been because dean took losses and nickal lost to myles at that big 10 I believe but I was not present enough on socials to know how hyped up that was.

they absolutely should but they won't

that would be far and away the biggest match since dake vs taylor and with the prevalence of social media now likely bigger.

free to watch highly recommend

I think if they hit at the trials and Keegan were to beat him that may fuel the fire but I personally don't think collegiate wrestling has anything left to offer him although NIL can change that a bit.

I absolutely do not disagree it was just a result I did not see discussed at all and found it interesting so wanted to see peoples thoughts.
