Gaitan getting a turn there probably a similar chance as another TD given the little time left I think the issue is that Dresser thought Gaitan had the RT point, so they told him to finish the ride.

jross Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 In live wrestling and with between-period position selection, what is your opinion on the wrestler making their own decision versus following the coach's instruction?

Captain of your own ship or fall in line? It depends. If you're an underclassman or haven't been watching tape (or the scoreboard and RT clock) and in a tight match, better to fall in line. If you're experienced and have a good feel for your opponent in-match, captain. Some coaches will also trust their wreslers to make the best choice. PSU seems to do this a lot.

I think he may well have, but even if Echemendia didn’t, it was close enough that challenging would have given him a much needed breather and a much better chance in overtime. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d like to know what you have to back this up other than just feeling like disagreeing. Ech is a classic gasser, and had just run down a bear hug fir 30 seconds at the end if the match against the #1 guy. After holding Woods’ offense at bay all match then getting run over. JB called him out as looking very gassed on the broadcast just before overtime. Does JB also not know when someone is and isn’t gassed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happens in the NFL too. A lot of head coaches will hire someone whose sole responibility is clock management because in the moment it is too hard for the head coach. Of course, wrestling coaches are not calling plays, so there is that. Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain of your own ship or fall in line? I have no issue with wrestlers making their own decisions, but if you have a coach yelling to hold him down your instinct will be to listen to the coach. You may be confused by the instruction, but you will probably follow it for at least 10 or 15 seconds before (if even) you realize they are wrong.

The amount of time a wrestler is provided by the referee to react to individual scoring or wrestling situations. Reaction time is provided in all situations except for locked hands calls down on the mat. Reaction time is determined by each individual referee and is described only as a period that is not instantaneous https://www.ncaapublications.com/productdownloads/WR24.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both wrestlers were gassed, and Ech nearly exhausted his on that last move... looked make or break to me. The match was over after the no-call. They were not sputtering like PK but on fumes.
