BrennanFan Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Thoughts? IMO yes. Beating BAM after his loss to Timberman would be my justification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INwrestling Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I think Lee earned the #1 spot back after pinning Lawrence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

navy80 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 1. Laughlin (loss was to one loss Whitaker at 160!) Q as freshman and 5th place as sophomore 2. Lee (redeemed himself with pin over BAM) 2nd as a freshman 3. Timberman (Has beaten several top wrestlers this year, Bethel, Lee, Vaughn, Negangard) tough draws at semi state FWwrestling1996 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maligned Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 (edited) Why would Lee be above Timberman if Timberman beat him? If we're just looking at these three, Lee has both the highest ceiling win and the "best" loss in my opinion. Plus, his other results are more dominating. That's enough to push him to the top for me.

Plus, his other results are more dominating. That's enough to push him to the top for me.. But his loss was to Timberman who beat Lee. So by your own logic Laughlin should be first. Timberman second Lee third. These are rankings not predictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

navy80 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Why would Lee be above Timberman if Timberman beat him? That was sooo four weeks ago....since then, Lee pinned BAM and Timberman lost... There is an argument for each of them to be ranked first. Also, I like Lee to be first because he has the highest finish at state and he is from the E-ville semi-state which I am biased to.

warsawwrestling Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I hate to be the person to break this all to you, but it doesn't matter. They will not be receiving a ring for being the number 1 in the rankings. I am pretty sure it doesn't get you out of wrestling the ticket round of Semi-State. They all in their own right have earned a shot at winning the real thing. Only 5 more weeks and all your questions will be answered. allyourbase, ugotstuck2 and Coach Hull 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maligned Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 (edited) . But his loss was to Timberman who beat Lee. So by your own logic Laughlin should be first. Timberman second Lee third. These are rankings not predictions. I didn't explain my logic other than to say I thought Lee's loss was the "best" and his win showed the highest ceiling. By strict head-to-head, it's obviously Laughlin, Timberman, Lee if we're confined to that. But this is not a seeding discussion and we have much more information than that--each guy's wins, Laughlin's loss, each guy's past HS seasons and off-season, etc. And since they've all got one loss and I would want my rankings to be both results-based and predictive of who's really the best, I would put Lee #1 based on what ALL the information says about the quality of the wins and losses for all 3.

guillotine Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 It will all play out in a month or so. So as of now the rankings are something to talk about, but in the grand scheme of things they dont mean anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caleb Spires Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I think Lee will win and TImberman would beat Laughlin in a rematch, but considering all 3 have one loss, I'd give the number one spot to Laughlin since he hasn't lost at 145 yet. 7isenough 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
