  1. What I recall was that they had rescinded it a couple years earlier but allowed anyone that had attended NCAAs already to be grandfathered in to go again if they still had eligibility and made the D2 finals or won D3s. And it wasn't the rules committee that did this. It was the NCAA bean counters.
  2. I'm not the Wright guy to ask about that!
  3. Wright from PSU back in 2000-2001 choked out 2 Lehigh wrestlers that year (Bernholz/Cote) both with Fred Ambrose as ref. Strobel sent in the Bernholz video. Although it wasn't technically a rule change it was looked at after that. I think Wright lost his next 10(?) bouts.
  4. You said might be- to be sure check One More Shot. We thought Dan Hodge was the only one close to being an actor. I saw the clip of this one (Miracle) and thought the kid was the only one that could act.
  5. During the Senior and U23 world's, I was helping remotely. I viewed the UWW stream for my mat and scored it as if I was matside. Using that software breaks the stream up into bout-sized chunks to be archived as per usual. We were the ones putting the commercials in. We did it between bouts. I don't know how they're doing it here.
  6. Maybe he's branching out?
  7. Should try to get Cooper Flynn a match with Cooper Flagg
  8. And the top referee in that era.
  9. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Reed
  10. One was EIWAs, I believe Chris's freshman year. And their trainer (Also Chris) went through the whole process and pulled him in Semis. He was able to get back to NCAAs.
  11. I'm going to disagree with one thing here. We (Lehigh) wrestled 123-191 + Unl in duals. My understanding is that the East generally wrestled this combo and the West 115-177 + Unl. This must have differed school to school given JBs info- which would have included Lock Haven. I did notice in 1960 and 1962 we wrestled Okla and Colgate without either weight but all other duals that year had 191. 1958 didn't have 191 at all. And then as said- at NCAAs 115-191 + Unl. Definitely more bumping. Thad Turner wrestled anywhere from 167-Unl.
  12. This is about as important of a discussion as what different areas call certain moves. Koch is pronounced- Cock, Cuck, Kotch, Coke. There is a family from NJ - Dufresne- where I think every member of the family pronounced it differently (or at least a lot of them). Du-frane, Du-frez-knee, Du-frez-nay, Du-fren.
  13. I'll play a little devil's advocate here. And for full disclosure, I've known Mike for a long time (before HS) and know the trainer, Chris. Chris came to me at other events to pull kids, so I know it's not a pattern. You couldn't see the original head hit on the mat. And the issues later weren't so much while wrestling as when the ref would blow the whistle and he took his time getting up. He attacked and defended. So maybe he was tired or recovering from something.
  14. This was his freshman picture, BTW
  15. I don't imagine it all came from one person. I recall a lot coming out of a club near Pittsburgh (Adam Frey's dad among others). I remember hearing of one guy from the 60s inspiring the club to develop it even though that guy wasn't really a big name.
  16. There's one in the OPC at Coe (definitely not this one though)
  17. Politically he is (or at least was) but he's actually quite the pleasant personality to what I have seen.
  18. Of course. He sat out for some period of time also.
