    Wasn’t the repechage process from the book too? There is of course precedent for courts ruling against “the book” though. The kid in Wisconsin that was DQ’ed but then allowed by a judge to wrestle comes to mind. Hopefully Vinesh has the Cornell lawyers

    I saw people saying that she was screwed out of an opportunity to wrestle off for 53, but also that she lost at 53. Maybe both things are true. She did “lose” at 53, but apparently it was stated that she just had to place top 4 in order to then have those 4 compete for the 53 spot, so she may have lost intentionally: https://sportstar.thehindu.com/olympics/paris-2024/news/vinesh-phogat-antim-panghal-53kg-paris-2024-olympics-selection-trial-explain-wfi-timeline-ioa-ad-hoc-committee/article68500511.ece

    Was she? I saw people claiming that but in looking closer it seems she did compete for the 53kg spot and lost, and may have even gotten favorable treatment to then compete for 50kg after losing.

    Honestly that would be my guess, maybe he coaches but doesn’t really compete much and then makes another run in ‘28

    So he lost the team points but still got to say he placed 6th? His website does say he’s the only 4x AA in Wyoming school history… https://joeleblancwrestling.com

    Crap are the Olympics over already?
  7. 1032004
    Don’t disagree but I think FRL talking about odds for an event that happens once every 4 years is the least of the concerns

    Interesting. Has anyone ever missed weight for the NCAA finals? And if so, did it change a team outcome?

    Wait I thought @gimpeltf above said he’s getting commentary on the single mats but not multi view? I’ve mainly just watched the single mats as I’m mostly watching on phone. But I just saw in the day 4 thread that someone saying there were ads for the replays on phone but not computer? Maybe the commentary is different for phone vs computer too?

    Even in the first round matches?
  11. 1032004
    I’ve been watching the specific mats. IIRC there wasn’t any before the semis in the ones I’ve watched.

    It’s OK but it could certainly be better. -Should be easier to find specific matches, either have more individual match videos or timestamps or something. The ads while trying to find a specific match on a replay were terrible. -No commentary in the early rounds that I’ve seen.

    They have been talking about it a bunch during the Olympics, but even though I don’t gamble I don’t mind it as there aren’t many chances to really gamble on wrestling. They also usually throw in the obligatory “please bet responsibly.” But hopefully you aren’t referencing the promotion of the Lineup Legends contest, as that is free to enter.

    Yeah I’m nervous. Lee has been doing well getting turns, but you have to get there first.

    I’m not a PSU fan and I know you’re trolling but this is funny. ”Don’t go to Penn State, you might only get silver or bronze at the Olympics!”
  16. 1032004
    So you’re saying Bucknell and Air Force have a shot?
  17. 1032004
    So who got eliminated?
  18. 1032004
    Hmm, maybe, now I can’t remember either
  19. 1032004
    He’s also 31. If he beats Yazdani then I think it’s not just sour grapes to wonder if he may have had some “help”
  20. 1032004
    Even if hypothetically she announced she had an injury immediately after the semis?
  21. 1032004
    I don’t think “selling out on the stalemate” with only a few seconds left was the wrong decision. I’m more surprised he took that bad shot that got him into that position.
  22. 1032004
    Yes. I get not expecting him to medal because he’s “not an experienced freestyler,” but he’s been out of college for over a year, he should know how par terre works.
  23. 1032004
    Higuchi has looked great. I think it’s a tossup but rooting for Spencer of course
  24. 1032004
    But they would have if she announced she was injured?

    Jimmy going for the reverse reverse jinx again
