  1. no more voting.
  2. no i get a point for every 30 seconds i hold him down. 30 consecutive. it makes the td that much more important.
  3. I would like to see some data on this. did the 30 sec increase action and scoring. i dont know if it has or not. but i know that action during that 30 sec clock has not improved. seldom do you see anyone score. and more often than not, its a counter. then they added the points if you do score. so it makes it even less action, b/c the guy on the clock doesn't want to get countered. but I am open to data that shows it had its intended outcome.
  4. i like the clock thing... but now you are going to give him a point? all he has to do is stall... i can see letting him up after the clock goes off. but giving him a point. no. why not have a clock on the bottom guy? if he doesn't escape within 30 seconds the top guy gets a point... not just at the end of the match....like RT
  5. I disagree that voting is an improvement. you still have people scratching their heads about calls. and just controlling the middle is an example of NOT stalling? come on.
  6. yes, but it doesn't really address stalling. on the clock.. action stops. one guy runs... the other guy does as little as possible so as to not get countered. it is nothing like the basketball shot clock in basketball you dont have to score... you just have to hit the rim
  7. what there saying is.. only 7% of the time.. guys didn't get backs... so it isn't worth dealing with
  8. yes, in really tight matches you aren't going to turn guys
  9. who knows? who cares? im just quoting the article. only 7% of the time did the guy with RT NOT get backs
  10. i say, the reason they didn't add the need to turn was that it only happened in 7% of the riding time matches...
  11. A riding time point went on the board in 325 of the 640 matches at the Division I NCAA Championships in March. Only 23 of those bouts were determined by or sent into overtime by a riding time point. Of those 23, none of the wrestlers who registered riding time points also scored near-fall points.
  12. https://www.flowrestling.org/articles/11099028-why-the-ncaa-wrestling-rules-committee-nixed-the-turning-point-proposal
  13. is it that small a field every year?
  14. correct me if im wrong.. PSU has two starters from PA?
  15. i have heard and forgotten many legendary ray brinzer stories the gumby not warming up the difference between iowa and osu
  16. true , i remembered that, but didn't realize it was 89...lewis was at iowa earlier... but would he have been in the same room with smith? not sure when gable coached world teams... if smith was on them... possibly.
  17. i apologize for my posts.
  18. i agree with the scoring aspect... yes he is superior... but do you think the guy that has been countered successfully 3 times.. is really going to go for it 4,5,6,7 times? i hope it doesn't slow down the action... but...
  19. gable was old by the time smith was in college but it maybe could have happened
  20. i agree, the shot clock has caused even more stalling in the what i have been told is the non stalling wrestling style. the guy not on the clock runs, with no penalty and the other guys knows it so he just follows him around for 30 sec in most cases
