    2024 Olympic Trials match and discussion thread

    I know this is wishful thinking, but with the reduced number of weights, I think a country could qualify more than one wrestler. Allow runner-up trials wrestlers to go to Last Chance and have a set number of placers make the team.

    My thought as well. No guarantee that he would wrestle someone he already beat.

    2024 Olympic Trials match and discussion thread

    Watching Burroughs v. Messenbrink kind of reminded me of Yianni v. Van Ness in 2023 NCAA’s. Yianni had that attitude of being indignant that someone challenged him and had the gall to wrestle him tough. Burroughs appeared the same.

    Burroughs needs to break down and buy a pair of socks that don’t always need pulled up.🥴

    Last Chance OTT Qualifier - April 7

    Forgive me. As much as I follow along, I still have much to learn. 🤔 Now, having admitted my shortcomings, I do have a follow-up. I read the name Lisa Morales when discussing GIA. Can someone educate me on the significance, please?

    Last Chance OTT Qualifier - April 7

    I’d like to propose a change in expression. “Full Court Press” aligns with that other winter sport. I am proposing that we replace FULL COURT PRESS with SUFFOCATING RIDE. Any interest or any other possible suggestions?

    Whiniest Big 10 Coach

    The funny thing is that I like Tom Ryan because I think he, actually, is a very good guy. I think, like many of us, emotion sometimes gets the better of him, and he needs to refrain from hitting “send.” It has to be frustrating for these coaches to see what PSU and the NLWC is doing and...

    You wrestling guys are insane

    Your vacation is their vacation.

    You wrestling guys are insane

    And, along with your 20 aliases, you are in a serious relationship with GIA.😀

    2024-25 PSU Lineup (The Dynasty Continues)

    I agree on Carter. Byers said in an interview, a few weeks back, that he would be surprised if Kerk did not come back. Maybe the national title changes his thinking.

    BTN embarrassing

    Yes. And, truthfully, I am okay with that. I have a company of about 40 employees. Other than myself, only one other is interested in wrestling. I like that ESPN covers the championships, but I would just as soon that ESPN not be involved any more than that.

    Absolutely true. And, he is a master tactician on the mat. He adjusts to everything so well. I think he is a legitimate threat to DT’s Olympic’s spot. No disrespect to David at all. I just think that Aaron is something very special.

    2024 NCAA's - Day 3 - Match/discussion thread

    I have read much of the commentary on Mitch’s match. My thought was that he knew exactly what was going on. He felt like he could not ride Carr long enough to melt off the RT. He also felt that he had the momentum and could get another TD. The problem was that he left the match in the hands...

    Didn’t Arujau take it to Fix in last year’s semifinals also?

    Braeden was a pleasant surprise. He has a lot to hang his hat on, though I am sure that is of little consolation to him right now. I think Aaron’s biggest enemy is the 3-point takedown. He gets in a hole against the better wrestlers and cannot recover.

    2024 NCAA's - Day 2 - Match/discussion thread

    I think back to 2011 and Ed Ruth’s injury. I never thought Ed would wrestle in the Consolations, but he ended up taking 3rd in impressive fashion. I may be wrong, but Ed’s 3rd place win might have clinched Cael’s first title. Very fuzzy on that detail.

    Is the extra pound per day a relatively new thing, or has that been around for awhile?
