Yeah lost to Mendoza too. I don’t follow every result. They wrestled a close match more recently I think. May have been freestyle. I still like his chances better in folkstyle and stand by my prediction.

Love Vega. Reminds me of Saitiev, RIP. But he loves to scramble and funk and in freestyle that’s not as effective. I’ll take Bassett in freestyle but in folk I’d pick Vega.

Two things can be true. While I buy that, because it’s obvious, I do think in this case there may have been some thought into not allowing him to go elsewhere, specifically to OK state. They may have misread just how committed Ryder was.

Is this true? If so Cael and co need to bite the bullet and do what’s best for the sport not just their guys. And I get that they are paid to do what’s best for their guys. Come on, every other team? It’s a very bad look. If it’s not true and there are multiple teams not competing it makes it a little easier to stomach. But I still think the NCAA desperately needs a dual tournament. We do it perfectly in NJ. Dual tourney then individual tourney.

This could actually be a huge moment for Taylor and co. If Ryder goes to Oklahoma State and knocks off Welsh it would be an epic redemption story the likes of we haven’t seen since Bubba J knocked off Taylor himself.

That’s a bit much. I actually think it’s a well thought out post. The most likely to me is Barr. Munoz is tough. Not an ideal opponent if you’re banged up. It’s tough to rank them top to bottom. They all seem equally unlikely.

Steveson may well be the best on the planet but that is yet to be determined. There are some monster Iranians who will definitely have a say in that.

I’ve been curious how an Angelo Ferrari vs Mcenelly match might go but is it possible he can go with Carter? He looks every bit the part to me. What kind of shot would you give him? I’d go as high as 30%. That’s a heck of a lot for freshman vs a 4 time champ but man this kid seems special.

Well now the word is he "fell out of a window while doing some house cleaning." AKA he pissed off the wrong Russian and got tossed out a window.

The GOAT and he was so damn fun to watch. Had an arsenal. I remember seeing him at Madison square garden. He’d look like a feeble praying mantis out there. Elbows in, arms like noodles, dangling. But my god. Freestyle master. Could wrestle from anywhere. I heard he had chronic lung disease. Not sure about that however. Sad day.

And honestly I’d say the same about Ferrari. He’s impressed me since those who’s number 1 matches when he majored Joe Sealy. Gotten bigger but he can attack. Didn’t do it much vs Carter but probably smart. I think they will wrestle Arnold here and use Angelo vs Ok St.

Well that’s pretty good. I’m with ya haven’t seen him a lot but from my eye test I’ve been highly impressed. Wondering how close he might be with Keck and Carter. I think Mcenelly beats Plott.

I’m hoping it’s Ferrari because I think he’s better and I want to see just how good Mcenelly is. From the eye test he’s pretty dang good. But can his attacks penetrate Ferrari’s stance and can he finish on him if he does get to his legs. Mcenelly is so so good at that bee line single to corner to feet finish. He just beasts right through them. But Ferrari showed a lot in his loss to Carter. I hope we get to see it.

I’ve been around since day 1. Flo is ten times better now than it was then. Wth are you talking about? Martin created the site but barely made any content, Joe is a good dude but hardly a professional journalist or broadcaster. Mike Mal was cool but does ESPN keep all of their commentators forever? Stop with the nonsense. Flo has done more for wrestling in the last 20 years than any company in the world. Are they always perfect? Hell no. Do they write cheesy headlines? Hell yes but overall they try to do what’s best for wrestling while trying to turn a buck in the process. Hammerlock has a bug up his ass about Flo even though he continues to give them his money.
