For entry fees? How much money could the possibly miss out on switching from an open go an invitational?

With 5 for 5 could we see the end of the open? The main purpose of opens is to allow unattached wrestlers some experience. With the addition of 5 dates for red shirts we already saw this purpose diminished. Now without dates to protect and no reason to wrestle unattached will we be seeing an increase of invitationals and decrease in the college open?

It will never happen but id love it if every d1 team got an entry per weight to nationals and it was single elimination until the round of 32.

He was booked again and given another paycheck to do exactly the same thing. Dont you know rewarding behaviors with money is penalization? Willie is a clown if RAF wasn't his baby hed be ripping shit like this just like I am.

They could have meant something out the gate.

Who could have possibly predicted this! Omg! Trashy organization.

I responded to your post yes, but with basically 4 points of contention. D1 has never caught anyone for PEDS, zahid was suspended by ASU but the test was administered by UWW in Italy and was not for PEDs, that we had a recent 4 timer test positive for PEDs outside the NCAA almost immediately after his NCAA career, and that most wrestlers/fans would rather this Pandoras box remain shut. You then responded to my post arguing the Zahid incident ( with absolutely no evidence to your point) and addressed litterally nothing else. You're like talking to brick wall. You've argued using vibes and completely avoided any kind of conversation on the topic. Possibly because you enjoy bickering but likely because you have no point to make against anything ive said.

You dont even have a source for your claim! You pulled it out of your ass. Flo and all other outlets reported the failed drug test occurred in Italy. Im not clinging to anything. I made a post with several points on the topic of PEDs in d1 wrestling and this is the singular point YOU CHOSE to respond to. Id gladly talk about any and all points I made.

Weak deflection and I never claimed to be interesting but hey anything to not address the topic we began discussing in a legitimate manner.

ASU national champion wrestler Zahid Valencia suspended after failed drug test - The Arizona State Press https://share.google/OfuMpk6cVW6Mv3xgl He failed a test in Italy for recreational drugs and ASU chose to punish him for it. You know, exactly like I said.

The NCAA didnt honor it. ASU did which is why you thought the administered the test. Likely because he was representing sunkist and wrestling in their room. You're awfully snarky for someone who doesnt have any clue about the situation at all. Its also weird thats what youre clinging too when the other things I said are more interesting and relevant to the sport. But hey I'll be back with an article to make you look stupid.

Never happened. He popped for cocaine(allegedly, i think the term used was party drug) in a UWW drug test. It had nothing to do with the school or the NCAA and also wasnt PEDs. But thats kind of my point the NCAA has NEVER caught a d1 wrestler for PEDs and I would hope none of us are stupid enough to think no one in d1 wrestling is using. I mean we have a recent 4 timer caught by UWW and suspended for something worse than what Zahid got caught for and we just pretend a)it was an accident b) it never happened or c) even if it did happen he was clean for all 4 titles... This is a Pandora's box we as fans just dont want opened and I tend to feel that way as well. The sport feels pure but its likely not true and thats a matter of fairness.

Can you name a time and D1 guy has ever tested positive? I cant. How about at the D1 national championship? To my knowledge they have never caught anyone.

Did you just kiss and tell? Also you have got to be kidding me... in my entire lifetime the ncaa has never EVER caught one PED user from the test at the d1 wrestling championships. You think no one takes anything? Hell some of the guys who wrestled in the tournament have gone on to pop in the UFC. Wake up.

They wrestled like the loser was going to executed. And the woman in the stands was screaming like it as well. Insane throws, vicious arm drags, awesome ending. 10/10 match
