It’s happened many times in the past, Public to Private or back Private to Public . Odds are it’s going to happen many times in the future. Lol

I don’t think much will change in a match just because of adding an extra points or even point of contact point . Experienced refs still going to hit them stalling, maybe even faster now with stalling because they want action . Points change will award the active wrestler, team scoring will prolly go up in Duals with Majors and Techs as well and we may see less OT matches . I love technical wrestling, score points, score a lot. This is what I’ve always told my sons . I’m not driving hour away to see you pin a kid in 15 seconds . Go out there and score, score and score points. I’m glad they’re awarding wrestling technicians .

Really impressed with these High Schoolers Bo Bassett & Jax Forrest performances. “Kids” taking it to these multi time NCAA Champions . Seen up to 11-12 years age differences in these two. Usually we see these high school kids are wrestling at NHSCA’s National Championships . No … they got bigger and better expectations on their table . Future is bright for USA Wrestling . I’m just at WOW !

LETS GET TO IT ! It’s bout time we see some Tech Falls in the 1st period regularly bases now in HS wrestling ! 3 Point Takedowns ! Yeah

Just a story I seen on Indianapolis News . Great Job Mr. Pitzulo ! https://www.instagram.com/reel/C5ThWV8rRY8/?igsh=aDhuMzZxdmVqeHpx

I do think the 3 is coming for takedown . Huge success in College .

125- I was going to pick Figs at whatever seed they gave him . Reasons … He came back from a loss to Provo from Stanford in OT 13-8, in early February to beat Provo 4-1 at PAC 12 Championships . 2 of his loses was injury defaulted and was giving a loss to Volk at Cliff Keen which is debatable. You can check that match out on Flo. Flo even did a story on that match . His only real loss match was to California and Oregon State Rival Maximo Renteria . Wonder why Maximo didn’t wrestle in NCAA’s cause he would have AA if not a finalist . Both know each other very well . As stated earlier Rich is Family . Asa wrestled with him on Team Shutt a few times while in High School . Super Proud of him .

Fellas … if you didn’t pick #12 at 157 Andonian “the funk” you haven’t watched NCAA Nationals past few years and as I type this he knocks off #5 seed .

Seeding the NCAA’s Given where Vito Arujau from Cornell is sitting, in the bottom bracket at 6th seed, who came up with that madness? I’m not sure the Seeding Committee is aware of it or not, but Vito is the returning NCAA Champion and the defending World Champion! Granted, he has two losses on the season. Both of them to a very talented wrestler from Lehigh who’s seeded 2nd which puts them together again in the quarters. Yes, I know the NCAA seeding committee has, to eliminate constant bitching and political infighting, established a set of hard fast criteria. And, maybe that’s what has Vito at 6th but, couldn’t there be one or two ‘we need to do something’ exceptions? Not for Vito, I’m not asking for Vito, he’ll do what he’s always done. But for Kai Orine from NC State who’s seeded 3rd and will run into Vito in the quarters. Is that fair to Kai? Why not put Vito 3rd and push Kai to 4th? That would give Kai a better shot at placing and in theory a match against Fix in the semi’s. But hitting Vito in the quarters, well, I wish him well. Of course, Kai might beat Vito, but there’s a stronger possibility that won’t happen. So, instead of penalizing Vito for only having 15 matches, is the Seeding Committee really teaching him a lesson? Ask Kai and just to play devil’s advocate here, Dylan Shawver from Rutgers has 5 loses and he’s seeded 4th, two slots ahead of Vito who has only lost to one person all year. Now to the ultimate, “what the hell is anyone thinking,” bobblehead move. Penn State’s Starocci is the 9th seed? Pardon me, but he’s a three-time NCAA Champion going for his fourth title and the committee seeds him 9th! No one has come close to touching him this year. Yea, I get it, he forfeited out of the Big Ten’s and they’re his two losses but really, you could hand out baseball bats to half the athletes in his weight class and he’d still win the tournament. But I guess the Seeding Committee is teaching him, and PSU a lesson. “We have rules.” Horse manure. He was saving himself at the Big 10’s for the NCAA’s because his knee wasn’t at 100%. No one shook hands with him and then walked off the mat with more points than he had. It was two whistle-whistles. Again, just like Vito, Carter doesn’t give a hoot where you put him, but I bet Mekhi Lewis does. He’s seeded 1st, and deserves a shot to be in the finals. Not now. So, who is the Seeding Committee teaching a lesson to here, Carter? Nope! Then in the semi’s, on paper at least, Carter has Shane Griffith. I bet the Michigan coaches are jumping for joy over that. Hypothetically speaking, what if Michigan was in the running, neck and neck for the team title with Penn State. Wouldn’t it be sneaky if Cael (which he’d never do so please no poison pen notes) knew that Carter could take out Shane, but if they met in the finals, that might be enough points for Michigan to win the team title. So, strategically he has Carter whistle-whistle out of the Big Ten’s, get 9th seed and take Shane out so the Nittany Lions would win the team title. Sounds plausible, certainly sneaky, and of course no coach would ever do that, right? Has the Seeding Committee thought of that, I doubt it. These people need to have a “however” for those moments when the black and white of their rules don’t make sense. And in the case of Vito and Carter, they’re not the ones that were taught a lesson.

It was early Christmas gift giving to others at 174 at B1G Championships from Starocci . Starocci is LOCK for his 4th Title and it’s extra motivation for him . “Seed me where you want” As Rick Flair said : “You gotta Beat the Man to be the Man” Starocci secretly said … vvvv

Bet ! Since I got 800k Bananas to spare, I’ll spot you 1K . I’ll drag your carcass in the HOF next year if you beat me . You was a shoe in with me this year if it wasn’t for that @Regionrat1 make one post a year . You make 2 post a year you should be good . Lmao . Region Fans ? You know I’m right about @Regionrat1.

Gimme them ! 125 Figueroa (8) 133 Vito (6) 141 Moore (15) 149 Gomez (6) 157 Andonian (12) 165 Carr (4) 174 Starocci (9) WC 184 Plott (3) 197 Brooks (1) 285 Kerkvliet (1) 100,000 K Bananas I’m in the Top 5
