At least 38 of them.

@Wrestleknownothing 42 takedowns total.

That is my entry here because I want to piss off people. My actual entry on Matness will be significantly different.

Because 333 is half of 666.

I meant the 333 under the picture, my man.

Just to ruffle some feathers...

Before I threw those last two reactions at you, I thought you might appreciate this...

Your second paragraph is precisely why I think Rutgers is still very much alive. They could usher in a new era at Rutgers for the next 5-10 years of NCAA podium finishes, the like of which has never happened for Rutgers (right?). That said, if the coaching staff was good enough, they would have more perennial contenders, right? Oklahoma State, Iowa, and Penn State seem to be the Top 3 most logical choices. Michigan because of the moneys and Rutgers because of the opportunity to start something great there seem to be less likely, but also logical.

I want to step in here with you, but SVN - Lovett was 2-2 with a minute left in the match, so basing this off of a 10-2 Major isn't really that good, man... and it was in Nebbie! SVN has destroyed everyone else this year and between his first and second match with Parco, the gap widened. SVN is in the better room. The maths is mathing the wrong way, here brada. I want to help you and take one of the bettors off your hands, but I feel the need to tell you that Iowa-Penn State is also in Penn State this year. Pleeeeease don't go through with it. I don't want to see you hurt! Also, I don't want to have to change my avatar to mirror yours again (in to something silly... because I'll do it!).

He has beaten last year's #7 (Little, #9 seed), #8 (Beard, #4 seed), and R12 (Poz, #14 seed). If you aren't willing to call him a contender, you shouldn't be willing to call Focus a contender, either.

Damn. Zillmer Jr?

Also, FWIW, his schedule has been brutal the last several matches. Walters doesn't do better in that stretch. You're talking about a guy who hasn't made 184lbs in YEARS coming down and doing better, when he isn't exactly blowing out his competition at 197lbs...

That true frosh was at 160 last year, too? I think something is up with Bullock. If Walters were able to go 184 and beat Bullock, I think we would have seen him already.

He was slightly less successful in High School, however still an absolute hammer. I have always thought him as good as Evan here, and his results are now.

Oh, the Iowa State team that could have been. At least they won every single toss-up. Echemendia as the 141lb starter doesn't seem such a guarantee at this point.

So to summarize this last offseason: - Askren turned the job down - In anger, or response(?), administration extended Bono - Wiscy regresses to the lowest it's been in the Wrestelstat era (dual rank) with many injury issues I wish Reader would get out of his shadow and show what he is capable of, although I am thankful that Bennett was able to tab the spot at CMU instead of Reader.

Amos 2029 NCAA D1 285lb 6th placer! *I jest and wish we could get a healthy Amos on the mat.

Kerk can win those 1-0, 2-0 matches and not be in danger. I would expect that gap to be wider against Slav, especially after he had a 9-0 Major in their last match. 100% is still nearly double 52%, but I acknowledge what you're saying is also true. I don't give three deuces if Harer was 272-0 in high school (Ahem, Justin Zeerip), until you put-out against NCAA D1, or comparable competition (MFS senior level), you aren't on the same level as a returning 3rd placer. He beat Taylor last week via 9-3 Decision, so I would think the gap would be wider than six points, at the very least.

Kerk wrestled a safe gameplan to win against a guy who is fast, explosive, and strong. He coasted. No problem with that, but he wins the match the way it was wrestled 10/10 times. Bartlett just won by more than one takedown against a guy who has three other losses on the season by one takedown (or less). That is like MM winning via techfellery. He didn't look bad. I am not sure why thinking he should have a wide margin on an AA quality wrestler is a requirement for him to do well. He won that match pretty easily. LL looked like the cut might be a thing. He is at 133 for them next year. Davis at 141. Barr with a 1M19S techfall against Poz? HFS. To put that in to perspective, here are his other losses via bonus: 2023-24 season- - 3/21/24, NCAAs via 14-4 MAJ to Tanner Sloan 2022-23 season- - NONE 2021-22 season- - 1/16/22, Penn State dual via 10-2 MAJ to Aaron Brooks (184) 2020-21 season- - 3/6/21, B1Gs via 10-2 MAJ to Aaron Brooks (184) B1G champ vs B1G champ? Davis wins? Not impressive, but he got the dub against another high profile guy. VanDee might just wrestle Michigan guys tough. That could be a thing. Kasak 4-0 over Harer? That one was perplexing and concerning. This is the same guy that a HEW-Ed Scott techfalled rather easily. Turley putting up a fight against Haines wasn't a surprise. I think Haines gets bonus next time, if they meet again. While it was close, it really wasn't. Haines was never in danger. Starocci with the techfellery on SCW? Is it insane to think that a 4x champ has nearly doubled his bonus rate from last year as of now? 52% VS 100%...

It's not really that bold, honestly. He is as much a lock as anybody, imho.

?? Do you mean Max Dean?

To help you out a bit...

I think he strives to start and be a star, which was what I meant. ChatGPT spits this out:

Holding his weight down makes very little sense. Most OLB that are being drafted high are in the ~255-265lb range aren't they?

He was 235.3 at National Duals.
