LOL....This isn't parity ..... parity means equal amount of something.... the only thing getting "more equal" is that the #2 and #3 teams closing the gap on #1 because they have spent lot of money with recruiting and poaching good transfers from mid-tier teams. How is that parity for NCAA wrestling?

Later in the afternoon or evening would be good.

I can relate as well...

Dake wasn't the best leg rider, but it is the single most dominant match on top in the history of NCAA wrestling. I think he finished with 6:18 of riding time... only 42 seconds of not riding.

What we do know from the results is that both lost to top 10 guys, Kennedy has beaten #14 and a few guys below that and Brands has not beaten a top 33 guy. Kennedy has a slight edge or you have a 2-3 wrestle off for the spot.

Kennedy and Hamiti wrestled two years ago...those results are very outdated Kennedy has lost to 2 Haines 5 Pinto, and 10 Karchla ... Beaten 14 Wask 17 Ogun 23 whiting 24 Braunagel 33 Harkins Brands lost to 3 Hamiti and 4 Norman and no wins over any top 33 guys (obviously he has been out) So, with all the data in.... who do you actually go with at the NCAA? Both have lost to top 10 guys - but Kennedy has wins over 5 guys in the top 33, but Brands would have probably beat the same guys as well. So, Is there a 2 of 3 wrestle off in the room?

Robles would like a word.

Just when Faux Jimmy 2 was becoming a 1% tolerable poster, he goes and pulls this.

The logical side of me says 16-16 and coming down to criteria... but the other side of me says we see something big happen that we did not expect.

Distinct underdog? I think most projections are 5 -5 in matches with bonus being the difference maker.

Yep - or in other words, round 1.

I would think that has kept his cardio up in the meantime.... If he got cleared last week he gets about 3 weeks on the mat until conference and 5 weeks until the NCAA. Is that enough time to get ready?

I think he goes #2 - Little is 3-0 in conference - AJ 2-0 and Munoz 1-0.

Who thought he could make it this far? Skips Oregon State dual (Munoz didn't wrestle either) - skips LR match with Little- Wrestles last night and wins by TF

When he was riding Seymour, he came down twice in row intentionally with his knee on Seymour's ankle. The ref penalized him for it and the Lehigh crowd was not happy. Seymour limped around the rest of the match. Then after the match, Figs has his usual antics. You can watch the replay on Flo.

You must have missed the PSU Maryland dual... there was a Basch @Husker_Du segment on how terrible it was....and no it wasn't just a mispronounced name. It's been more than just one instance this season. Young kids are not prepared for big10 wrestling announcing...not necessarily their fault.... but it was a disaster.

Lehigh having their way with ASU.... FIgs with some cheap wrestling. And it's being live streamed on Flo

How dare we pay for a service and expect mediocre.

The real fun will be Ferrari's posts....

No program is going to pay a guy more who doesn't AA either. As a side related side note, you dont' think Bob would pay AJ next year if he can get into Iowa?

Not wrestling could hurt NIL, but he could also hurt his future NIL by not AA or having a bad showing. He hasn't wrestled much, he has one top 20 match on his resume and if he wrestles this Friday it will be the first time in about a month. All signs point toward an unprepared and unsuccessful post-season. He has stayed out of trouble, stayed eligible, wrestled some matches. It's what his next university wants to see from him to be able to gain entrance.

Im in.

I would not be surprised if he is done for this season.
