    I don't see why the loss to someone who is redshirtlng should impact the ranking but as you noted, how will impact the seed is a better question? McEnelly will have a better win percentage (assuming he only takes 1 loss at B1Gs) and have the same placement. B12 is a little stronger at 184 so Plott might have RPI. Can Foca jump him in the seeding criteria?

    That makes sense tho. I am not questioning why Iowa is heavy in the portal or is paying guys lots of money. Caliendo is mulit-year starter and will part of the line up next year. I just don't get why they went and got 1 year rentals. If this wasn't the year they were going to try and maximize points, whey didn't they try and pay highly ranked underclassman.

    Let's not pretend that Parco, Teamer, and Buchanan all knocked on Iowa's door unsolicited. As I said, I am not questioning the decision to sit Ferrari and do whats best long term. I don't understand why they went out, recruited and PAID 1 year guys when they are not going to put out their best lineup.

    I understand why Iowa is redshirting Ferrari as they will get more out of him over the next 4 years. What I can't understand is why did they pay all that money for 1 year transfers, but not put out their best lineup?

    Just ask him. Hey Angelo, what is your ceiling at NCAAs this year:
  6. Dogbone
    Very interesting. If he is going to give it a go, its probably better for him to wrestle the whole tournament anyway to get his match count/lungs up, etc. so he is prepared as possible for NCAAs.

    Kyle Dake did an interview once where he basically said he went into every match thinking he is already up 2-0 because he knew he would get an escape and he would earn a riding time point.
  8. Dogbone
    It seems to be just speculation based on him missing his best competition dates this year (CKLV and Little Rock).

    He is also just making up things and stating them as fact like Schultz's cuts 50+ pounds....

    They have Gallagher beating Peterson so it doesn't seem like they do.

    MM only won by major in that match in the dual and did not break him at the NCAA's "only" beating Amine 6-1. The dual loss was the only match Amine has lost by bonus in his career. Caliendo has been very impressive this year outside of the MM match, but the chances to bonus Amine still seem very low.

    New lines starting to pop up: Penn +6.5 v. Rutgers (today) OkSt -1.5 v. Iowa (Sunday)

    We did not watch the same match, I guess. Starocci was never threatened once. Starocci is getting Techs against B1G competition and NCAA qualifiers. Ferrari can't tech the SDSU backup. Its a different level.

    Looks like he is just coaching to me. He doesn't even seem that passionate about it. Both are bad calls, but I don't want my coach to just accept it, especially if they were on the wrong side of the first one. If anything, it would be consistent for Poeta to point out that the Sealey's TD was no different than Bryd's and they should be called the same, which was incorrectly no TD unfortunately.
  17. Dogbone
    Where did he complain or make a comment about the Sealey TD?
  18. Dogbone
    That is where I disagree. Majoring Plott just means he is the contender at the 2nd level of 184 (3rd place). It does not mean anything with regards to his ability to beat the other 2.
  19. Dogbone
    Exactly! It has nothing to do with who the calls go against or any fan base because there have been so many questionable calls. He is like an athlete that chokes in big moments. Sure is is fine with no one is around but when the moment gets big, his brain does bizarre things.
  20. Dogbone
    Yes, there can be more than two title contenders but there is not at 184 this season. I'm sorry, Plott is very good and in a different year or weight class he has the ability to win a NC, but he is just level below the top two guys.
  21. Dogbone
    There have been a lot of good duals this year where the dual outcome was not in doubt but had a lot of toss up matches. This dual does not seem to have a lot of toss ups, but the dual is a toss up with bonus points likely deciding the difference. Just interesting to me.
  22. Dogbone
    Refs are not supposed to be known. The fact that he is the most well known and recognized ref tells you all you need to know. I don't know the name of another NCAA ref nor could I recognize one in street clothes, but I can with Angel.
  23. Dogbone
    2 point stall call was basically a fleeing the mat call, which was justified IMO. It wasn't like he sprawled and went out of bounds, he was literally running away. If that happens in the first period, no one thinks twice about it.
  24. Dogbone
    I think you get at least two AAs. UNI is a top dual team this year and is a good example of why a dual team championship would be great for the sport. But as you noted, they probably are not going to place as high at NCAAs. Hopefully the local fan base isn't expecting a top 4 tournament finish despite them possibly being a top 4 dual team.
  25. Dogbone
    They really need to stop taking team points away unless there have been multiple infractions, if at all. There is no way a causal fan could watch the coaches in the ISU/UNI dual and the Indiana coaches in the NU/IU dual and understand why IU lost a team point. To be clear, I loved seeing Metcalf and Schwab go at each other. Headgear throw should definitely not be a team point or any celebration either.
