I didn't say Barr knew his traits.

Don't forget where Beard wrestled first. They know his traits.

Unless the previous match was a default (by same wrestler)

I'm just saying there are other options.

Not to seem too naive but money always changed hands during protests. I worked in '96 and '03. FILA charged 400 Swiss francs to listen to a protest. We all know there were bribes but I would suggest that if you saw money being put down that what you saw wasn't the bribe. Bribes were likely done out of site and in addition to what you would have seen.

I remember when we first saw Hasimikov walk out to wrestle- ('79 San Diego) - One of us said- How are you supposed to wrestle THAT!?

From this year's OPC- Gable Steveson Minnesota, MN 285 M RS Jr.

And he has another year.

He isn't in the OPC yet but is shown on the Minn website. https://gophersports.com/sports/wrestling/roster/gable-steveson/22871

Close calls either way but keep one thing in mind. When you are counting for a danger takedown, you don't start counting the instant the other guy goes to his back. You give it 2-3 seconds to be sure he's being held there.

Slightly different side of this. How many beat more than 1 previous champ on the way to winning one himself? Ed Hamer (Lehigh- '59) beat Alberts of Pitt and Murty Ok State in winning.

If we're talking people who became champs or were at the time Frick- Dan Sherman (IA), Milkovich, Breece (OK), Bennett, Churella, Yagla Close behind Mike Brown- Bohna UCLA, Mann Ia St, Loban Clemson, Harris Ore St, L Banach Ia,

Not sure that this is an exact precedent but ... https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/42254200/ncaa-makes-canadian-hockey-league-players-eligible-div-i

Hammers only come from the A pools.

That was mainly a number of mid-west schools in the mid 60s as I recall.

The statement was actually correct (notwithstanding the more literal picture above) which was unusual for Yogi. He lived in Montclair and when the road split- you could get to his house either way- https://www.facebook.com/share/v/ok3TiQTjvTmk2m33/

Albania is now on standard time rather than daylight- they do it a week earlier plus there's a delay with UWW- they're talking about 6am edt (9 minutes from now)

Not to my knowledge. Those are the bouts. Lehigh does them as more of an exhibition- not as formal wrestleoffs anymore.

Lehigh tonight https://lehighsports.com/news/2024/10/23/wrestling-brown-and-white-intrasquad-set-for-thursday-night-at-grace-hall.aspx

No, not NIL. https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/41702974/ncaa-approves-elimination-national-letter-intent-program

He reffed at Lehigh

I wouldn't say nearly guaranteed since he hadn't come that close to getting a knee down other than early on and wasn't getting him to move to the edge. However, he didn't give him much time and in my experience they usually give them a lot more time than that.

I haven't looked every day but I see he's showing on CSUB online roster. Here's his bio- https://gorunners.com/sports/wrestling/roster/aj-ferrari/8540

Interesting question about the ankle bands. We were given a "formula" to use to assign but it was based on school colors. Unless the guy that gave us the list used the blue for Fresno, I don't get it. Especially since if we had considered them equal the top guy (which was McIlravy) would get red. We let them reassign at the table a few years later when there was a major screwup between Nebraska and Minnesota (I think). Both reddish and must have had Minn on top. There was a stalling call at some point that nobody could remember what happened as they everyone was confused with the colors.
