There is a max of 9 scholarships for D2, and those limits are based on programs that are fully funded by the school, endowments, or fundraising to reach that cap. As a former college coach for a decade, I will be happy to answer any recruiting process questions if any should arise, but the information that people are sharing on this thread is very true. The first thing I always looked at was social media, then grades. Here is a little article that was published in USA Wrestler last year that I wrote along with fellow Hoosier, Cam Eppert. It's worth a read. https://www.qgdigitalpublishing.com/publication/?m=58602&i=678992&p=32

Jim, do we know why that is the case? A forfeit counts as a loss on a record whereas a medical forfeit does not. I had a kid carted off to the hospital and now those matches count as losses on his record which the idiot coaches down here will pay too much mind to when it comes to seeing our big competitions.

Is there a "medical forfeit" in high school wrestling? In Trackwrestling can a match be labeled with that as a result?

Luckily one of the Y2s here actually read my initial post. Thank you, Y21AB.

Does anyone know how many wrestlers have placed 4x at the Indiana State Tournament and been a 4x All-American in college (at any level)? Off the top of my head I think of Angel. I haven't really put much thought into it, but was just wondering if anyone knew this stat. Thanks!

Behling, do you have an extra pair of shoes? I am in Ft. Wayne until Tuesday!

Cumberland. All the same, congrats young man. I am spending this weekend with one of the assistant coaches there!

It looks as if he was Player of the Week actually, not Wrestler of the Week.

I now coach in Louisiana. We travel to New Jersey, Texas, Tennessee, and Georgia for tournaments. We miss a total of 4 days from these four tournaments. That truly isn't much at all. Let alone, at least change the rule so that teams can travel over Christmas break for holiday tournaments. That would be a good start. By the way, we fundraise for all of our travels. If your team wants to travel, have them raise the money. That is a simple fix. I would venture to say that the teams all across the country that travel around the country are not having those expenses paid for by their school funds. I could be wrong though.

Thanks for the input, Jimbo! I am looking for a little more clarification... 1) Is GREEN always HOME? I am not asking if you can make a team that has a red singlet the "away/red" team. I am asking... is green always home? Is it feasible that red wristbands are awarding points to the "home" side of the scoreboard? 2) Do you have a rule for this or a specific section in the case manual? 3) So you are telling me that you would NOT call an illegal hold in a position where we started in an Iranian but i put you on your hip and I am stepping over for a turk? Text me if you need me to send you a specific video of what I am talking about. There is nothing in the rule book that says ANYTHING about pressure on the head in a head scissors. The only place that pressure on the head/neck is addressed is in a draping scissors situation.

3 questions and even more specifically these two are in the NFHS rule book... 1) is green always “home” and is that a rule? 2) is the match over with the slap of the mat or the whistle? Example...an official at our HS tourney said today that in terms of if time is out or not you go by the whistle and not the slap of the mat. 3) pertaining to a head scissors (with or without an arm): in what positions can there be a draping scissors? The only one I can think of is in an Iranian. I had an official tell me it was draping when both athletes were on their hip and the offensive wrestler was stepping over for a turk from the Iranian. Is there anything in the rule that says anything about pressure against the head? I am not seeing it. I understand that for a DRAPING scissor the rule states that pressure would have to be there. However, under illegal moves it says the straight head scissors (arm included or not) is illegal. There is nothing about pressure at all.

I don't believe Brooks was a Fargo champ. He lost to Tomasello in the finals the year he made it. I could be wrong though, even though I was his coach for that match.

Is this tonight only?

Rod! Great to see your name pop up when I scrolled this topic. I hope all is well. Will BHSS be at the team state duals in December? Andrew Nicola
