    Yeah, his case is an example of a terrible seeding job rather than an unexpected run. Was penalized by the seeding committee for being injured for a significant time. His dominance in the tournament may have been a bit surprising, but AAing certainly was not. good interview with Brewer talking about his issues that year

    Not as impressive as Jackson, but from same era Zeke Jones is another guy who never won NCAA but had international success. World gold and bronze plus Olympic silver.

    Plus Cormier

    Going back a bit Gene Mills over Joe Gonzalez 16-13 ‘79 finals.

    Bobby Weaver is another.

    all good, if you add them to the list I guess best chance is GMU's 157 DJ McGee. Pretty long shot this year though, but he's only a RS freshman, so one to keep an eye on in next few years.

    what about GMU? Last AA was in the 90s I think. And VMI too unless you count Richards COVID year AA.

    Beat Lewis in the 3rd place match

    Got it, thanks

    Original post included former assistants

    Gable record v JRob?
  13. 11986
    Pop has beaten Oklahoma St before iirc

    He was on these boards not too long ago….at least I’m about 99% sure same guy and I called him parity boy in a post back then and he adopted it…. jimmy while irritating is less harmful imo. His trolling actually inadvertently leads to decent wrestling conversation some of the times he posts with dumb topics.

    I wonder if the EIWA might look to replace the departing Ivy schools with new members. Not sure what schools, if any, make sense though. Not like former member Rutgers is leaving B1G or anything.

    same NCAA finals Lou Banach pinned Bruce Baumgartner.

    did TJ wrestle lower weight at Ok St than in HS? I know he wrestled 119 at Dapper Dan vs future UNC teammate Ty Moore (RIP) and was at 126 while at Ok St. Maybe he dropped for Dapper Dan from whatever he wrestled his senior year in HS.

    He did. But was still an awesome season with all those pins and 50 or so wins. Cliff was a stylistic match- up problem, that’s the way it goes sometimes, but Scott was going to be the Hodge winner until that happened.

    One of the best single seasons for any wrestler that did not win the championship.
  20. 11986
    Lock Haven coach Scott Moore wrestled a ton of matches at Penn St and UVA.

    I'm going to disagree with you because IMO NCSt is already an established program, though IF they do finish 2nd that's a significant jump even from their steady success of late. Now, maybe keep an eye on Coach Pop's old assistant Frank Beasley, he's slowly making progress at GMU. Hopefully they can be a top team in MAC soon and get some guys contending for AA spots.

    current Virginia Tech assistant coach and Oklahoma NCAA champ Cody Brewer, (Dr.) Jim Martin, the Banach brothers, Coach Strobel from Lehigh (RIP), just a few that come to mind
  23. 11986
    agreed and he also has wins over 3 of those 4, maybe all 4. Not sure if he wrestled and beat Guererro earlier in the year he lost to him at NCAAs. I know he avenged regular season loss to Tirapelle at Big Ten same year, had multiple wins over Abe the year McGiness won his first title, and he avenged regular season loss to Cunningham in the NCAA finals same year.
  24. 11986
    I'm pretty sure that is correct
  25. 11986
    what 4 timer has lost to the most NCAA champs? Stieber I guess with the 1 loss to Retherford? 3 timer? Tom Brands has 3 that I can think of - Jim Martin, Kendall Cross, and Alan Fried. Anyone else for him or what about other 3 timers? 2 timer? Jeff McGuiness has 4 that I can think of - Sanshiro Abe, Eric Guererro, Casey Cunningham, and Adam Tirapelle. Anyone else for him or what about other 2 timers? thinking JP O'Connor's 6 is going to stand as most for a 1 timer.
