Hofstra has one of the smallest rosters around. Also missing from their roster is Dwight Howes. What became of him? He was fantastic in HS.

Alan Fried interview, part 3 (conclusion)
Plasmodium replied to TheOhioState's topic in College Wrestling
I agree, He's pretty great. But is he really, really great? :D The burning questions are: Is he is more great than David Taylor? What would his margin of victory be in a fantasy match up with Dake? -

There to get a degree? Care to explain why the red shirt year exists?

Don't most places use 5 on September 1 as the canonical time to start school?

You guys must be intimidated by a man's man: Not me. I can smell his cologne from here.

This guy should run police seminars on how to subdue people.

I am very appreciative of the GIS work Thanks.

Should fans be allowed to vote for the Hodge?
Plasmodium replied to flaBigRedfan's topic in College Wrestling
A single loss shouldn't eliminate anyone from anything but NCAAs. The Hodge should be earned with quality wins. -
That definitely sounds like the actions of one individual coach. I can't imagine a coach not tripping over himself to write a letter of recommendation for a guy that spent 5 years in his program.

Number of NQs from CA and OR have plummeted. Theories?
Plasmodium replied to Jaroslav Hasek's topic in College Wrestling
While this is definitely true, some states have historically over performed based on the number of D1 programs (Ohio, New Jersey) and others have underperformed (North Carolina). I'd like to see North Carolina's numbers, if you have them. below are CA, OR and NC's NQs from 1998-2014. If it's too small to read you can find a bigger version here: http://jaroslavwrestling.wordpress.com/2014/03/31/ncaa-wrestling-national-qualifiers-from-california-oregon-north-carolina-1998-2014/ let me know if you have any other suggestions on states to compare. I am from Colorado so I would be interested in how we are trending. More than that, it would be interesting to see how states that have had high and sustained growth trend. It seems like population shifts don't have a large effect. -
I hope this mystery is more interesting than the last.

Apples and oranges. If they want to hire a younger guy, it should be someone like Eric Guerrero, Donny Pritzlaff or Brandon Eggum.

How does Coleman Scott make anyone's short list? He is still competing.

Yazdani's illegal foot stomping single
Plasmodium replied to Two_on_one's topic in International Wrestling
I'll guess that it was already well scouted. Check out 1:43 of his match with Varner: -
Yazdani's illegal foot stomping single

This was very clear in video. Anybody know what would have happened if Zeke Jones threw a brick? -
Flo Wrestler of the Year: David Taylor (link)
Plasmodium replied to TBar1977's topic in College Wrestling
E=mc^2. I can't imagine the energy produced by converting the mass of just one elephant into energy, let alone the ark. Your statement is preposterous. :D -
How many scholarships do they have? They have the same funding as some schools that do have 9.9. Edinboro is very reasonably priced, even for out of staters

Careers should be measured by your peak skill level and quality wins. -
Yazdani's illegal foot stomping single
Plasmodium replied to Two_on_one's topic in International Wrestling
He did it to Bergman also. At 0:34 1:42 and 6:10. And the ref spent half the match shaking his finger at Bergman. Totally asleep at the wheel. -
Northwestern: College Athletes Can Unionize
Plasmodium replied to vsnej's topic in College Wrestling
FWIW, some wrestlers make money from their name. David Taylor headlines lots of camps and clinics, so his name is at the top of that list. -
Northwestern: College Athletes Can Unionize
Plasmodium replied to vsnej's topic in College Wrestling
These guys are employees and their job title is 'student-athlete'. :) They are going to rake in overtime and get paid premium wage to study more. How many hours total does a football player put in for both school and sports? 60? A serious student at Northwestern --- 70? The university will have to hire work-study folks to make sure they are actually studying during their billable hours. This will herald the end of non-revenue sports. -

Here are some athletic department figures. -
Literally none of those situations are stalling.
