What are you talking about? He holds center and controls the action like an eastern euro begging for a cold spray!! Wait, is this not the freestyle board? Oh. Welp, then maybe you should check out Lewan's training center and maybe you haters can stfu.

I have said it before and I will say it again: Death to the NCAA. But that means death to olympic sports as we know them. All will become so small and niche such as men's gymnastics that collegiate sports will eventually just... go away. And it will be a linger, brutal death. And don't think for one moment that this won't trickle down to high school and younger as school administrations have to look under the couch for every penny they can get. All it takes is one superintendent emboldened by the NCAA's eventual decision to make the same move and you will see rapid emulation.

Does Kueter get a shot at Davison considering his current cardio? Related: If Brands doesn't send him out are we calling this a duck no matter what, or only if Keuter burns the redshirt?

Oklahoma is more likely to cut wrestling than the other SEC schools to add it. I don't like saying that out loud nor am I saying it is going to happen, but it is a true statement when taken at surface level.

Then we have the answer to our question.

I disagree but only because I believe Team USA should not be the gatekeeper for rankings tournies entries. I quite enjoyed Yianni/Retherford at Dogu as an example because it spoke to the Team USA "may the best ahtlete win" mantra. Only the highest ladder entry should be comped, but if someone wants to pay their way then let them enter. Also, not everyone goes to rankings events or they only attend a limited quantity so it is unfortunately a conundrum.

Beats the old process of no challenge, and to be honest I'm not sure how I feel about it. You won the spot then in my eyes you have earned the right through the entirety of the season. The season begins the moment you win the spot and does not conclude until Olympic Team Trials scales open. It's both a perk and a heavy responsibility, nay duty, of being the world team rep. Makes more sense to have them on weight a few weeks prior to the event they are challenging so they can decide to ramp up or taper down and adjust their OTT training schedule accordingly.

I highly doubt it would be limited to "just" football as I bet that MBB would also be part of the B1G/SEC package. But we shall see and this will take years to fully shake out.

If Kerk doesn't return, I could 100% see Carl recruiting Beard to come back at heavy. He's ruthless like that.

Is he dropping to 125?

I expect @cowcards will be updating this wiki table with school and classification after someone finally figures this out. Right? Right.....? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NCAA_Division_I_Wrestling_Championships

Was it Davis and Zalesky?

FIFY, and this is being generous to the field

Trumble is the people's champion (Blue Dragons excluded)

I am such an idiot. I confused Trumble with Aiello at senior nats because I was in too much of a hurry to fire off a joke about eating Cox.

Pepperidge Farm remembers when Illinois was a strong program with hammers top to bottom.

Trumble had a great showing at senior nats last month to put himself on the radar but I don't see any scenario where he gets past Jackson, Moore, or Cox. Actually on second thought it will be tough but he can beat Cox if he sneaks into his room to mess with his alarm clock and leaves a complimentary ticket to the breakfast buffet.

I'd like to hear your argument why he was better than Cox in high school.

Cheese and rice leave it to the quakers to ruin a good thing just because they live in Utah and don't realize . . . You should just soak and calm down

Pinned it in the first period like every other challenge that thinks it can overcome the force known as Amit Elor. But in all seriousness, the cut has to be tough and I while I understand the business side of things I wish she would have stepped up to battle the GOAT. But methinks there were reasons in the room that said "I'll cut down."

It's not the weakest but Starocci is one of, if not the, strongest bet along with Brooks. 125 crapshoot 133 I'll take the senior worlds finalist for $500 Alex. Covid problem for everyone else compounded it. 141 Everyone has seen the senior lapping the field blow up a la Myles Martin 149 Lovett hasn't proven separation and his style lends him no favors in that department 157 I don't doubt Haines/PSU but a twice torn meniscus in-season is a bear 165 Toughest bracket in the tournament. You have 30 people fighting for 4th-8th. 174 Starocci is nails. 184 See 141 except Keck is even less proven. 197 I'll take one of the best wrestlers in the world at his weight. See 133 285 Hendrickson isn't the same wrestler and likely can't beat Kerk in his current state. He is barely getting through decision matches after likely tearing out his knee when he destroyed everyone besides the big boring oak tree last year. Thank god the military dgaf about physical health and said "nah, we don't believe in MRS get out there boy Uncle Sam is gonna need you soon."

And didn't wrestle him again when given the opportunity.

I literally said they should be separated and one of them has to defeat MM on Friday night, so yeah?

KOT and Carr being on the same side would be a travesty. If MM earns Saturday night then great, but don't rob fans of the opportunity for closure.
