  1. I’ve said forever that if it looks like a clear slip then continue wrestling where you end up without awarding points to either wrestler. Ref can signal the “slip” to nullify any points being awarded, but if you end up on bottom afterward then you just have to deal with defending the position you are now in. Most slips, at least at a nine international level, are due to a lack of a solid position and technique anyway, so if you don’t want to end up on bottom after then improve on your position and technique.
  2. He seemed like the lead candidates to take over from the start. This move keeps continuity with the program with current wrestlers and he should be able to draw in some decent in-state guys too. Rough being a mid-major these days, hopefully Bennett can keep the Chips rolling.
  3. Sancho’s or Coleman’s family must be right next to the announcers booth.
  4. Well we are in the era where the athletes can openly leave pretty easily too if they have other attractive options.
  5. https://www.espn.com/mma/ufc/story/_/id/39881399/cauliflower-ear-ufc
  6. Seems like Duke missed out on a heck of a branding deal by not locking him in.
  7. I was really under the belief he had one more good season left in him as the head coach. The team still looks decent, doesn't have the headache of Ferrari anymore, and had Scott riding shotgun to help take on some of that daily coaching grind. In true "Cowboy" fashion he just decides to ride off into the sunset of the off season rather than taking one last farewell tour. Still one heck of a career as a competitor and coach.
  8. Until the Covid Bonus Year people all clear out I’m not sure how anyone can keep track of who still has eligibility. Is next year the last of last one for any of the final straggles of this rule?
  9. It was after after Storacci finishes his post match interview where he decided not to disclose the injury. JB said “he knows a guy that will be there in April” and “I would go right after that injury”. Guessing that was not the tact Nickal expected after someone just won his 4th title while injured. JB did go on the praise him for battle hard to win the title, but I think the prior comment lingered.
  10. Maybe they realized in bible study that only Jesus was perfect? (Not helping my place in the after life with that one)
  11. I do recall JB adding in that he’d have no problem going after the leg at the trials in a few weeks. I’m guessing that added comment may have been what led to Nickal’s post. Sure it’s what anyone would be thinking if you want to make the Olympic Team. However when you are hired to be an unbiased commentator for a college event I’m not sure you need to make that type of statement on the air as a guys winnings 4th title. Time and place.
  12. No way, Middle Schools trying to impress a cute girl rarely give good comments.
  13. Wow DC took time out from his wrestling commentator gig to worry about what social media is saying. Let alone respond to it. Come on man. I haven’t had much issue with the commentary. Just having JB and him together means we don’t have a true commentator with thorough background knowledge and statistical info. Both of them are good at general knowledge, reacting to play by play situations, and telling stories but they need someone to play off of that has the other factors.
  14. Well I mean if you use that term loosely. A champ of something.
  15. They may have to cut Brooks 4x interview short. Shows already ran over thanks to all the early bricks and blood times. I guess the silver lining is he won’t have time to say much that could insult another major religious group.
  16. Carr had a battle to win for sure but as a former champ I just can’t say it’s completely unexpected.
  17. Fully expect Brooks to walk out to Jesus Walks by Kanye or he’s stepping off brand.
  18. Forget seeds since 125 was a wreck and Vito/Storocci were way undervalued returning champs. Baring Hidlay miracle, is Henson the most unexpected champion tonight?
  19. It was kinda a lackluster match but apparently bring a 4xer isn’t worth the added crowd/ESPN fanfare anymore.
  20. Mesenbrink not knowing the score made up for extra stall call Carr got. But still a bad way to finish an active match.
  21. Bring the Pain by Meth would be a good walk out though.
