Boring!?!?!?!?!! Not at all. He makes it interesting because his wins are never guaranteed!!!! Losses are rarely less than a takedown away!!!

I hate the fact that he coaches while reffing. Let the kids wrestle as they want and penalize and award points when warranted!

I don't see the fans filling the arena for national national duals. Never really did before.

Love Shane Sparks but damn why the forced pluralization of singular words?!?!

Not bagging on the "kids". I'm bagging (whatever that means) on those who thought having kids broadcast to the world was a great idea I pay for BIG 10 Plus and expect better. Not knowing rules. Slow to put scores on screen. No riding time on screen. Cameras not following the action. Its all BS The whole crappy streaming is another issue all together that has been discussed here a bunch.

Watch the matches on BIG 10 Plus that's where the kids come into the broadcast picture no matter the team

I knew some fella was gonna come up with the same tired answer! "Back in my day we had to..........

I asked first!!

From Big 10+ using kids with no clue regarding wrestling rules to seasoned broadcasters (Tim Johnson) not knowing tie breaking criteria. Streaming issues with several outlets is always an issue. Big 10 + shows scores with no riding time. We need to demand better ! How do we hold their collective feet to the fire?

Many AF Academy grads go to grad school prior to active duty. This one was weird because he still had eligibility available.

I would assume the first topic was either coffee or the Buffalo Bills

Did he really go on Basch with the sole intent to complain or was Woods/Iowa one of several topics?

Buckshot, I agree wit you 100% regarding making it hard to watch! Every article written about upcoming events should include date and time of said event! Flo and Track should include in their dashboards when each session of tournaments starts and which round will be wrestled which session. One shouldn't need to be logged on to their device to be able to determine if the semis are tonight or first thing in the morning when sitting in the gym! My big pet peeve is the stream for events not starting until moments before the whistle blows! No.way to.tell if you have jumped through the right hoops to log in to watch and by the time you figure it out, 3 matches have been wrestled.

Thanks a bunch for the comment! Your input is awesome!!

College wrestling has issues and these two burn my butt! I travelled to Nashville to watch the duals and spent good money for tickets, gas and lodging. The hosts decided that programs were not needed for this event. The friend I was with didn't have a working knowledge of the teams or the athletes and had no way to get a handle on the competitors or what the expectations should be. Piss poor! Especially for the cost of the tix! 1/2 of the gym did not have the ability to see the team score! The only score boards with the team score faced only 1/2 of the gym. I wrote the folks at Journeyman about these issues and their answer was to follow along on Tournaflex.com. What a crock! Wrestling is its own worst enemy!

Why doesn't each wrestler have a backup pair of head gear? Too many time I see coaches scrambling to find a headgear that fits during matches after breakage.

We do it in freestyle and Greco! Just add green or red accents or piping to the singlets.

I'd rather watch Taylor chew gum than Willie chewing snuff! Ever watch him and Basch? Willie is chewing and spit tin into a bottle!

One still must graduate and meet certain academic requirements to get into college and be eligible. Its not like these kids are skipping their senior year, they are just not competing in wrestling their senior year.

Beating a future champ is not beating a champ !

Olympic redshift and does not even give the Olympics a shot I have been saying for years that the Olyshirt system is broken.

All y'all are missing the fact that the showdown will happen! Seeding the past world/Olympic champs 1-2-3 wouldn't have guaranteed the match we have all been wanting to see.

When you are the only national champ in a room with a few AAs you get serious recognition, especially in a town that was once a wrestling Mecca.

Does the GOAT deserve universal love?
