Beard is looking damn good

Guys seem to hand fight with brooks for about 25 seconds and then just go “ok I’ve had enough of this take me”

Thank you for the cash boys

welp think the team score record can probably be kissed goodbye

sick td by abas

his west Allegheny teammate Shawn Taylor is going there too!

Watters is so damn big for 149

could not tell you I thought he was behind him had ankle hooked and a crossface on for about 20 seconds

thats gotta be a td for miller ankle hooked crossface on behind the hips

great start for V-tech

leete looks like an absolute bitch to wrestle kids just jacking up hooks left and right

this could be a terrible round for michigan Belton up 8-4

hes visually impaired so you can't break contact

very bad on bottom great otherwise

Nagao vs baseline defense

I am still holding out hope that Vito can get healthy and get his weight down in a month but that seems rather far fetched at this point. There was a time where daton vs Gillman was seemingly a coin flip so perhaps Daton could be our guy too.

I think this strategy is really sound for smaller field tourneys to win something big you probably have to get lucky with some mid seed guys but I think doing this could certainly win like a 20-30 man thing pretty easily

Jacques has finally made an enormous jump in his freestlye wrestling hes actually super dynamic on his feet im not sure what clicked.

Carter (hes going to be unbelievably chalk so on the off chance he loses to mehki and med defaults youd have crazy leverage by not using him but its hard to pass up on a 9 seed thats the favorite to win the weight) heavy is a weight i feel like you want to prioritize one of the big 3 wyatt has been my lean because of his chance to make the finals as well as his bonus ability but those 3 guys seem to have really separated from the field 157 is a weight I think you can get some value. Levi is a likely champ but im not a huge fan of his draw for bonus opportunities and I think the field is wide open enough that you can take some shots. I like Andonian,Zerben,Mauller in that order 141 I lean brock hardy top 5 upside with an outside shot at making the finals (very outside) 149 I like gomez legit shot to win it and a very favorable draw to the semis imo 125 I think you just go with your favorite value guy I like Camacho but you still give up decent points on him Poulin, Palmer (if you think he can win off the scale) seem like solid picks 184 and 197 are my main pay ups I think keck could bonus the field and same thing with trent and Aaron they could bonus to the finals

Knee tag (first to 3 don't let anyone drop to a knee) Don't have a name but it's a hand fighting game you get a point for getting your hands locked around the body, a point for snapping a person down so both hands touch the mat, and a point for getting all the way behind someone so like off a slide by or a duck something of that nature.

is that the same rohit that beat castillo at u17's?

taking zain out of the equation just because its so up in the air what weight he goes (if he wins the spot im super confident he will qualify the weight) ill be rooting for Yianni or Alirez. Simply because I think both guys have solid international pedigree. I know its a small sample but Alirez teching Haji alyev and then beating bartlett with relative ease at senior nats gives me pretty high confidence in him if he were also to beat some combination of lee,Yianni,Mckenna. I also really like how alirez wrestles he can transition to a lace effortlessly and he wrestles super clean which allows him to avoid giving up chained points. And then of course Yianni has the world silver and wins over bajarang and tevanyan among others.

I think Alirez or if zain somehow makes the weight and is functional are our safest bets to qualify the weight followed by Yianni then Nick. Nick obviously domestically is one of the best guys, but he seems to struggle with the international comp a bit although he looked good at worlds despite not medaling.

Nasir Bailey vs Nagao Davis vs Peterson/Ungar Shapiro vs Chittum Bernie vs Hawks Levi vs Mauller (don't really expect it to be in the balance just insane that the 1 seed has a 3x AA r2) decent chance Mauller doesn't even win r1 though he lost to Teague in the dual.

second guy looks at least solid, beat tobier at worlds and lost to tevanyan 8-6. I dont really think James is going to be a factor at 65 though.
