"This guy won NCAAs as a freshman and a junior world gold.,.I expected .... "
Your comment is 100% fair.
Definitely never going to be the multiple time world champ some people expected, but he is solidyeah this is all in context.

Not starting over Dake, JB, DT, or Zahid obviously.
But he's somewhere in that next mix of guys. Just clearly behind those 4
He's good just not Senior Level World Medalist good ... Maybe with opportunity and draw, he could eek out a bronze at 79kg or 86kg
He's good just not USA 1st team good.
yeah fair enough. I just think the tone a lot of people take on here is as if it's a mystery why he didn't just inherit a world team spot.

He just isn't that good....

Looks to me like Lee sort of shut down, when was the last time he did that? Looks like he felt the chest wrap, waisted some attempts that ended up in merkles, got hit with some old man stuff and lost faith in his attacks to me. Not like Lee.

Would love to be as non-athletic as a two time NCAA champI'm sorry you're right he's lazy and has bad technique.

Could they get th.e cameras on a wider angle? Could pyles suck at announcing any worse? Saying "good" in front of everything he sees doesn't count as commentary.
Are the announcers in Austin? if not they should shut up and work the cameras.

Just now, ppitts71 said:I think we can all agree that all three things are true
Oliver looks pretty when he attacks
Rarely actually attacks
Oliver is overrated as an international wrestler
i don't like oliver but he's also old as hell. I give the guys with who've been wrestling at the senior level for 10 years some slack, or at least not freak out cause someone said something nice about them.

5 minutes ago, NJDan said:But if he was such a good attacker, he'd do it more. That would make sense. In reality, at least today he wrestled defensively and evasively and did just enough to eke out a win.
you know this isn't middle school wrestling right?

(this will be funnier for hl3, since he's met me in person and lets just say it would be a comedic look)
yes i was about to make exactly the same comment before i finished your post...

This is the scrubbiest look. Its senior lvl for god sakes dont advertise that you are borrowing singlets.

Ok so the returning medalists go to Final X, do they get the world team trials challenge tournament winners?
I thought that was the case but when I looked down the list it seemed like people such as suriano must be missing.

Cael said "creighton who?"
-
Hasn't Cael been at it long enough to say his coaching tree sucks?
Kidding aside, Cody, Cunningham, Varner are probably all ultra elite coaches...but Cael keeps em....or they are so good that they can afford to keep competing.
Come to think of it, keeping guys around to train might hurt their coaching prospects. All these elite guys used to be doubling down as coaches/athletes, which is not ideal, but would a guy like Nolf, assuming he doesn't compete well, be competitive for a high paying college job if he wrestles through 2024?
Just pointing out things that might shrink the tree...

How big can a circle be in NCAA? Has it changed recently?
how big was that crazy mat iowa had in the 70's were the wrestling area was a square?

I'm not trying to by obnoxious but I'm gonna restate this post from a cynical perspective.
"He's got one workout partner who is aging out, and he was bought off when he signed so why couldn't be bought off again."
For the record I don't think he's gonna transfer, but I don't think anyone would be surprised.

very true

6 hours ago, ShakaAloha said:I also think it's higher but didn't want to overstate. The point I was trying to make is that the posters hating on AV would get destroyed by him in a match. The past national champs and AA's that post here aren't criticizing him. They know how hard it is.
I know numerous people of said status who criticize him without restraint....

its kind of funny that you only said 95% because I assume its higher.
But people don't bag on him for not being good, they bag on him for quitting visibly and dramatically over and over.
Are we admirers of talent or effort?
If USA Wrestling is going to get in bed with Flo, when is there media production accountability?
