Whoops, meant to quote @PortaJohn 's post saying Brooks was the best

Did any of the 4 have a better win than Nickal beating the 2x defending champ as a sophomore (kudos to Theo for calling this win out)?
-
Yeah this question is kinda dumb. I think Nickal vs Ruth is more comparable, and a more interesting question IMO

Minnow being Minnow, guessing this gets deleted:

Gross beat Fix less than a year ago

Do they get their hand raised for a MFF?
-
So the MFF is included in the “33”? I could see including non-D1 in that number, but not sure why they’d include MFF’s at all (regular dual forfeits yes)
-
I don’t see that, might be on desktop and not mobile? They don’t count MFF’s at all right?
-
Yeah. And I get your point about the small schools too, and showing them how wrestling can be a positive for enrollment and/or revenue (especially now when combined with a women’s team) and hopefully leading to more D1 teams. I guess my main point was IMO I think it’s going to be easier for Power 5 schools to get competitive wrestling teams just from the resources from being at that school, even if they’re towards the bottom of the totem pole in terms of importance to the school.
-
That’s the wrestlestat number isn’t it though, so I think counts non-D1? Looks like Millner also has 118 on wrestlestat not counting his redshirt

Who has the most of active wrestlers?

SoCon Seeding Guess/Interactive Bracket
1032004 replied to bracketbuster's topic in College Wrestling
Socon looking up it seems. 125, 133 (3), 141, 165, and 184 (3) all with multiple guys in the coaches rank. But I saw they only had 12 pre-allocations with 133 and 174 being the only weights with more than 1. -
Agree, but that’s not really mutually exclusive from “Football, Basketball and Baseball are undoubtedly 1-2-3.” Teams like NC State and VT are good examples of southern schools that have built a pretty good following for wrestling despite not being very good historically and probably still not being in the top 3 sports in importance at the school.

Spencer Lee has a new webshow "GOAT Talk"
1032004 replied to Jimmy Cinnabon's topic in College Wrestling
Was actually a pretty good segment I thought. With it being him and Clark I’m guessing the implication is maybe just U of Iowa GOAT? -
I mean isn't this the case even at Penn State and pretty much all of the "Power 5" schools?
-
What about winning Olympic gold while in college?
-
I don’t think the OP was suggesting that, although as I called out the data does likely help those guys that couldn’t wrestle as freshmen because they didn’t have the opportunity to lose. I think it’s more just saying that it’s possible that one of those guys could be the GOAT (Uetake being the main one that seems to be in the conversation), not to claim that going 3 for 3 is just as good as going 4 for 4.
-
Looks like Northwestern should’ve went to the last chance open?
-
Burwikk transfers back to Wisconsin
-
Correct. Dake’s big achievement was winning at 4 different weights. If he lost to Taylor then that goes away, plus he had other losses so yes, he wouldn’t be in the convo. Although some would argue he’s not in the convo to begin with, the only guys that should be in the convo are ones that were undefeated… He said most… If he doesn’t lose the rest of the way, yes IMO. If he does then I think you could stil argue undefeated guys over him.
-
IMO, yes. I think by definition someone that lost at the NCAA tournament can not be the GOAT. Can they maybe be ahead of a few guys on this list, I guess so
-
I think drawing the line at never having lost at the NCAA tournament makes sense. WKN, yeah I guess that would also include guys who missed seasons due to injury/suspension
