I think my biggest issue with the movie is that they say ASU dropped the program his soph year and don't bring it back til the end of his jr year. Then when they do come back he almost kicked off the team til they rally together Rudy style.
The program was cut for 10 days. He was one match from AA his freshman year. Then AA'd his soph year (the entire year they cut out of the movie). He wouldn't have been in any danger of being cut going into his jr year.
Oh and also how the Tom Brands actor didn't even try to act like Tom Brands.
They dropped the program and the movie says he sat out his soph and almost all jr year. Then when the team comes back he's going to be cut until the team unites and they decide he can stay. In reality the program was cut for all of ten days and he finished 4th that year at 125 then 7th his jr year (they said he was pinned in the finals).
They also say McDonough had never lost, never had a point scored on him, and had won 2 consecutive titles. We obviously know this to be inaccurate as well.
Lets play off the other thread. What, in your opinion, was the most entertaining match of all time? A link to said match would be most appreciated...I'll start.
Jordan Burroughs vs Jordan Leen - 2008 CKLV Finals
Leen was the defending national champ. Burroughs won the weight later on in the year in a LOADED 157 bracket.

all do or die guys. made wrestling entertaining at a time when, no offense, a plethora of guys like tsirtsis made a living on 1-0 matches.
one of my favorite things to do is when a ref makes a stupid call like that i ask them to cite the exact page number from the nfhs rule book that it talks about whatever they dinged them for.
Jayson Ness - 5,3,2,1
Dylan Ness - 2,4,2,6 (inj def after semis sr season)
Hayden HIdlay - 2,4,5,3
Trent Hidlay - 2,5,4,2
Idk man, Im going with the Ness brothers. Its close though. I think had Dylan not gotten hurt he would've won it his sr year.
If they kept their floors cleaner the space lasers wouldn't start the fire. I take no blame.
No but seriously, i really didnt mean for it to take legs to the point of someone having to deny it. Mineo has to know someone connected to make a claim that lead to an actual denial. He wouldn't just make that up outta thin air.
