It's crazy that a D1 AA beating two high schoolers in a row is considered impressive. You have a good point regarding Bo using his physicality to overwhelm other high school kids. He's not a slick wrestler, seeming to prefer snap down-go behinds. That will be tougher to do at higher levels in both folk and free. Will he plateau or continue to develop? I wouldn't say that Chance is a good comparison, though, as his issues we more off the mat. His career would have been very different without all that, in my opinion.

Is Barr staying at 197? If so, are the Mirasolas really going to stick around?

Did it? I'm at my in-laws for dinner, and none of them even knew the NCAA tournament was this past weekend. Didn't see anything on ESPNs main page or on social media, either. He was only there to make a spectacle, as that's all he is good for.

Yeah, it sounds like it should be a big deal. But does anyone care?

The big criticism I remember of Lee was that if he had won, he would have still wrestled the finals. Is that not true of Kerk? It did not appear that his injury worsened in the semifinals match..... (For the record, I'm not a fan of criticizing any of these wrestlers. Except AJ.)

Yeah, not so fast. AJ, after placing third, stated in his Flo interview that he is going to win three more national championships, maybe four more if they award him a fifth year. I also suspect he is not good at math. Hell, maybe that's too generous. He's not even good at counting.

That was certainly Seymour's approach. But the officiating was fine. Perhaps the nerves got to LL. He didn't fully commit to his attacks and didn't push enough to earn a stall call. An unsatisfactory match to watch all around. Reminded me of every Jason Tsirtis match ever.

DT trying to break his knee in frustration leaves a bad taste in your mouth with J'den? OK, dude.

He may not top the list, but J'den at least needs to be mentioned (other than in WKN's list). Not quite as dominant or dynamic as some of the others, but he won his first as a true freshman and did not take a RS at any point. And he is one of the few to win an Olympic medal while still in college. Only five career losses, one of which was a questionable DQ (in my opinion).

I don't disagree regarding the NCAA. It's a multi billion dollar a year business built on slave labor. But, I still don't see the screw job on a school trying to blatantly wrestle a kid with no eligibility left. It's been crazy times since 2020, but every other kid that didn't use the free year packed up and moved on with their life after their 4 years of competition were completed. There is no way he and the staff didn't know he exhausted his eligibility, therefore, no screwjob if he gets booted. If they let him wrestle, then whatever, but some other kid is missing their opportunity at being an NCAA qualifier. Is that not a screwjob?

If he's getting screwed it's by whomever at his school or on the coaching staff that told him he could have a fifth postseason. The free year was pretty clear, and he didn't use it. I really fail to see a screw job in the NCAA not allowing a fifth year for him. Seems like he is in the bracket, though.....

What has he had taken away from him besides this? It was the 2020 senior class that got screwed. He had four chances. (The fifth year was always a stupid idea)

This is on the coaching staff. If they had no idea his eligibility was questionable (or straight up exhausted), they are idiots. If they knew, then they should have tried to clear up things with the NCAA long ago. But given he already competed in four conference tournaments prior to this year and didn't use the "free year" there is no argument to be made.
