Is Wrestleknownothing the Billy Bean (Money Ball) of wrestling?  Perhaps there is a statistical future as an advisor for a D1 team.   Can he take, say, Maryland or Bloomsburg to an NCAA championship with un/orthodox analytics?

No

When was the last rule change that directly affected tournament scoring from bonus points? 1994?

In 1995 they increased pinfalls (and related) from 1 to 2 points, major went from 0.5 to 1 point, and tech fall was replaced by match termination (though both required a 15 point lead and were worth 1 point).

In 1997 the tech fall was restored. But they also distinguished between a tech fall (leading by 15 with back points) worth 1.5 and a match termination (leading by 15 without back points) worth 1 point.

Now all tech falls are worth 1.5 (though I do not know when that change was made).
