Coastal

Not a fan of tossing or sliding equipment being a unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. Intent is the key there and I am struggling to see how sliiding something is unsportsmanlike.

Forrest has traveled to Oklahoma State's RTC for a while now. They train at Young Guns quite a bit, have outsiders come train at the Compound/McCourt. They trained at Iowa's RTC before the US Open. Bassett was training at NLWC quite a bit but that's tailed off since he committed. I think the real question is if these kids ever actually go to school

And yet there's only one person continually bringing up politics on a wrestling board....

Speed fades faster than strength and the brain fades the slowest of all. It's why we see NFL Olinemen and pocket passer QBs play to a much older age.

It's a dick move to post usernames from other forums on this one. Posting quotes from other forums is ok but you should take the usernames out.

A sophomore who is out of U17 eligibility. Jayden James is a grade older and a year younger for example. Miller lost, Bassett lost, Mocco lost...and we're to the "questioning the officiating" page in your program for those following along.

All those things were said on this board.

The cope is getting more and more exaggerated. Bassett "looked good" losing, Mocco had takedowns while getting horsed around despite a weight advantage... even a future potential recruit in Miller "won" by not getting destroyed by Duke. The only thing all three shared was losing.

I have no horse in the race either but all freestyle pushouts are not the same. Some leg in the air, walk 'em out for a free point would be pulled back to center in folk, some are under Hook sumo pushouts.

From my understanding, Nolf isn't qualified for WTT.

Three champions.

I realize they are used to it, but do you really think Iowa fans should be "damn happy" with losing?

There's a lot of countries at Worlds that wouldn't place in the top 50 in the stronger countries.

That number will drop substantially at the WTT as one has to qualify for that event. Top end wrestlers didn't break a sweat until the quarters or semis in most cases.

Penn State - 7 Gold 2 Silver 1 Bronze OK State - 2 Gold 2 Silver 2 Bronze Cornell - 1 Gold 3 Bronze Arizona St -1 Gold 1 Silver Minnesota - 1 Gold 1 Bronze Missouri - 3 silver 1 Bronze Lehigh - 1 gold Illinois - 1 gold Oregon St - 1 gold Ohio State/Nebraska -1 Silver 1 Bronze Stanford did get 2 bronze but both were at the SR level so they should be noted. There's your top 10/11 current college teams in Freestyle. Some teams have former World Team members that did not compete for one reason or another but none would move into the top ten.

Third Place SRs 2 Stanford, Penn State, Cornell U20 Missouri, 2 Cornell, Iowa (finally on the board), Oklahoma St, NC St, Ohio St, Lehigh, Nebraska, Minnesota

If we want to look at those who made the finals and took second we have: SRs Missouri, Ohio State U20 2 Missouri, 2 Penn State, 2 Oklahoma St 1 Michigan 1 ASU 1 Nebraska 0 Iowa Sinclair was a finalist in both SRs and U20 at different weights.

It's amazing how Iowa fans like the pastry are twisting themselves into knots that Bassett "looked good" losing. He's going to look "great" in college then when he can't physically bully other wrestlers. Now the pastry is pointing out that Mirasola only had pushouts on Mocco as a slam on Mirasola instead of the fact that a non-physical heavyweight was able to physically manhandle their other prized recruit.

Oklahoma State had a great showing with a commit winning SRs and another winning U20. Cornell, Minnesota, Lehigh, ASU and Oregon St all snagged U20 golds. Illinois joined the party with an U17 winning gold. Penn State won 2 SR, 4 U20 and 1 U17. Iowa was blanked across the board.

Miller is may be a sophomore but he's a really old soph. There wasn't much of an age difference between the two.

One of the C. Mirasolas is taking on one of the D. Bechtolds next on mat 5. I wish this new dashboard had the weights of the upcoming bouts.

Carr/Mesenbrink was entertaining after a few slower bouts. Wasn't expecting that result.

Really looked like Gross had 2nd day weight issues.

Inconsistent officiating is a bane on American freestyle. How no one went on the clock in the second period is beyond my understanding.
