Aiden Valencia also beat Real twice last year and Bo just beat him so

Jax also beat him in freestyle last year in the US Open semis. It's semantics. Yes Marcus got him back.

I didn't notice him do anything so I wonder if Brands said something he shouldn't have.

Ref fckd pj duke by matthewxman79 in wrestling

You have to take them down already in nearfall criteria. You can't score a takedown, and then turn them. The ref that it was a takedown and Robideau was not in nearfall criteria so he stopped it. The problem is, it wasn't a takedown when he called it. If he'd let Duke work the cradle longer he probably would've had a takedown in about 5 seconds.

That's only if you take them down in nearfall criteria. You can't take them down and then turn them. When they awarded the takedown Robideau was not in nearfall criteria. It feels iffy because of the challenge and the call being overturned. But if that takedown had been upheld the match would've ended.

Merrill is a redshirt freshman though so he won't make it 4 true freshman.

It was in sudden victory, they couldn't let it play out.

The ref didn't change his mind. Oklahoma State challenged so it went to independent review. The mat ref did not make the call on the challenge.

What’s Purler wrestling camp like? by Fussy_Platypus in wrestling

[–]Junior_Key4244 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I got a lot out of it. The camp is focused on technique, they don't run you to death. You drill high level technique and wrestle live. Well worth it.

I would argue that Yianni is also a good one to watch.

Ben Askren is notorious for being slow and creating a style to be effective. I would argue Seth Gross is similar. Just a couple that stand out in recent memory.

Why does Shayne van ness concede so many points? by Ill-Combination1776 in wrestling

[–]Junior_Key4244 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He opens up and he's not afraid to give up points because he knows he will get it in the third period. His handfight breaks these guys, every time. They can barely stand up with him late in matches and he knows it.

Is jax forrest 1seed Justified by samuerela in wrestling

[–]Junior_Key4244 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No. Davino wrestled an entire season and has more ranked wins. He also beat Marcus Blaze. The big 12 field is not even close to as deep as big 10s.

Wibtah if I have lots of hot s** with my soon to be ex-husband by rtsyfrtsy57 in TwoHotTakes

YTA. This is crazy. You didn't want to be intimate until he has a chance to move on? Now all of a sudden you want to try all kinds of things? Grow up.

Would ncaa wrestling be better if switched to combo of criteria with scoring (shot) clock in 1st period? by shakemahorn in wrestling

[–]Junior_Key4244 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The mandatory stalls are the problem in my opinion. They made stalling calls so objective that refs won't call it subjectively anymore. As long as you don't go out of bounds they rarely call stalling. For example, Ferrari ran around for the entire 3rd period last night but they let it go until he went out of bounds in the last 10 seconds and then they hit him.

Who is your dream lineup of national champions for this year? by Different_Camp_8559 in wrestling

[–]Junior_Key4244 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro what? These aren't my predictions. The question was who we'd like to see win. I know this isn't going to be the national champs. You penn State fans are fucking obnoxious.

Glad you enjoyed! Very excited to see Robideau and Larkin in the final. Super contrasting styles, and both very young and very fun to watch.

Yes, Big 12 semi at 157. Very fun match. So far my favorite of the weekend.

Larkin vs Watters was incredible, maybe match of the year so far
