  1. Focus had a tear in something. MCL, I think? He was on pitch count so he could get to NCAAs. He said at one point for nearly a month he couldn't barely bend his knee, let alone shoot properly.
  2. I don't think it was Arnold's anyways. They were pretty even.
  3. Nebraska is still Tier 3. To be Tier 2 they would need to have better than a fart's chance in a $HlT storm against Penn State. They still do not.
  4. I have a solid idea who it might be.
  5. My boy Jawn dropping bombs on the twattersphere.
  6. I am not saying Minny doesn't best Rutgers. Actually, I say the opposite. I am saying I don't see Minny taking a dual against Iowa, Nebraska, or the Ohio State. I could see Rutgers or Michigan doing it, though. You know how I do my tiers, brosef. Can't skip one unless something ridiculous happens (say, for example, one side is missing five starters and the other is not).
  7. "It's far too early in the season for terrible grammar." FIFY
  8. For dual purposes? Rutgers is salty. I don't see Minny beating Iowa, Nebraska, or Ohio State - if full starting lineups are there. Rutgers/Michigan might be able to sneak one. Also, I did say might need to combine 4/5.
  9. No. Just... no. Tier 1 - Penn State Tier 2 - Empty Nobody is sniffing Penn State. Ergo, there is no Tier 2. Tier 3 - Iowa, Nebraska, Ohio State Tier 4 - Rutgers, Michigan Tier 5 - Minnesota, Illinois Tier 6 - EMPTY Tier 7 - Maryland, Purdue Tier 8 - Northwestern, Michigan State Might need to move Tier 4 in to Tier 5 and leave Tier 3 on an island as well.
  10. Allred is overranked. There are wrestlers ranked below him that he will lose to, without a doubt.
  11. This year's MFS senior rep at 79 KG (174lbs) will have to retire from Folkstyle.
  12. I must also add that I was on my phone and not looking at wrestlestat... legit rattling names off the top of my head.
  13. Wrestlestat ratings, brotha - not rankings. It goes off all the results, not just the last tournament (which should probably be factored in, I agree). Also, Kasak destroyed Taylor twice last season. Destroyed. Whereas Taylor lost to Blaze, Kasak, Kasak, and Askey. Again: Ratings, not rankings, determined by a formula taking all results in to account. Sinclair is currently 'ranked' at 197 on Wrestlestat, that is why he isn't there. Also add in that he had two Major Decision losses (Plott, #5@184 and Buchanan, #1@197lbs) and two regular decision losses (Volker, 12@197 and Smith, #23@197), and his rating is only good for 1517.39 on Wrestlestat's Elo system. That is good enough for #8 at 197lbs and #9 at 184lbs. In media rankings wrestlers will get a pass on some losses, especially as the season progresses. That doesn't happen with wrestlestat's ratings system. Unfortunately, a loss to Smith in November is just as damning as a loss to Smith in February. As far as McEnelly? He had a lot of close wins. Those don't help when using a computer program that factors in margin of victory (a 4-1 OT victory of Bullock, for example). Ferrari's close matches were to Plott (victory) and Starocci.
  14. You assume it had nothing to do with timing, which is actually wild if you think about it. Here are the things we do know: - Cael had long understood that a National Duals of any time would need to happen before the 1st of the year - Cael has long put a priority on MFS Worlds U20, U23, and Seniors over early season events. - Cael has long put a priority on NCAAs over B1Gs. - Cael is big on HEW prevention, which would mean resr after each of some sort. Timing lines up to be that many of his heavy hitters would be missing National Duals. It is a legitimate claim, not an excuse.
  15. He is small (88.5 KG, 195lbs) w/ zero cutting. Being smaller in Folkstyle would hurt him more than MFS.
  16. I am kicking myself in the nuts there.
  17. He wouldn't be sniffing Tier 3, all respects due. I probably have him Tier 6 right now. Tier 1 - Haines Tier 2 - Empty Tier 3 - Pinto, Kharchla, Steed, Ruiz, PK Tier 4 - Norman, Singleton, Mantanona Tier 5 - Thompson, Wask, Gaitan, Augustine *Disclaimer: Not really researched, just going off top of the head for now
  18. They're bean polls, man! Watch Brock's match with Henckel at U20s. He was clearly gassed from wrestling the whole day by match 2, but even in Match 1 or the US Open, he is clearly smaller. That is at 174lbs as-is.
  19. Sinclair is neck & neck with the highest returning placer in McEnelly. We have Ryder and Welsh in the mix. Those four are nutso, and that isn't even considering that there are other studs at 184lbs that might play a factor.
  20. Can you post that, or send it to me?
  21. Heard eight of the officers are suing Snyder's ole baby arm for emotional damages. Not Snyder himself... the pork sausage explicitly. They use great detail in the definition and explanation of the 'defendant.'
  22. Berger? No, he's a Cuntberger. I still can't believe how much of a turdbiscuit that guy is. I might be 57(ish) years... I'd still slap the white off of him, were I to see him. Why purposefully and maliciously try to permanently damage someone's face? That is weak.
  23. I agree. That said, I am also wondering if there are other plans for Michigan where the Mantanona brother send up going 174/184 rather than 165/174... I have heard absolutely not, but I still wonder.
