Intriguing early round matchups (if they happen)
PSUMike replied to 1032004's topic in College Wrestling
Verkleeren vs. Alirez is a tough first round then the winner gets Sasso. Zacherl vs. Kolodzik is interesting. Venz vs. Bonaccorsi is a tough R2. Phipps vs. Geer is a battle of 2 PA boys. Wood vs. Orndorff R2 -

My biggest issue has always been a tremendous amount of recency bias. I could deck you 5 times leading up but if you beat me 3-2 in a rideout, you're going to leapfrog me in their rankings.

A Cinnabon never pays his debts. They are the anti-Lannisters.

133 was, in my opinion, the toughest bracket. So whomever won it makes the most logical sense. No complaints here.

Was it weak last year? Kinda. No one wanted to be in Nolf's weight so I think a few guys who would have been better suited for 157 moved up or down to avoid him.

That wouldn't surprise me to be honest. But I still would favor Brooks or Venz.

Maybe I'm overly critical but I don't watch Deakin and think "He's a national champ in the making" although that's how it looks. Young, to my eye, looks like a bloodround/7-8th place type of wrestler. There are quite a few guys in this weight who will AA this year who I don't think are AA talent. I just think the overall composition of the weight is weak relative to legacy data. Conversely, Carr is a multi-time NCAA champ and International competitor to my eye. I'm just not 100% sold he's there yet. And Hidley looks like a perennial bridesmade who never quite gets over the hump (Sorensen, Caldwell, McMullen type).

Kaleb Young was ranked 3rd in the country for most of the year. If you think he's a top 3 caliber wrestler any year, I don't know what to tell ya.

Look at the talent for other years at the weight and tell me 157 is a strong weight this year.

I think the first 5 will be pretty chalky in terms of who comes out on top. My god, is 157 comically weak. 165 - Flip a coin 174 - I think Hall pulls his head out of his ass and makes a statement here. 184 - Whomever wins the Venz/Brooks semi will win. Lean Venz. 197 - Moore HWT - Gable

On MMA forums, he was sometimes referred to as Honky Kong which I thought was hysterical.

I'll be 32 in May.

Coach that could make Cael-like splash
PSUMike replied to shieldofpistis's topic in College Wrestling
Wright is a local boy who was probably going to Penn State regardless of who was there. I'm fairly certain Ruth was committed before Cael even got the job. Molinaro was already at Penn State when Cael came in. Frank graduated HS in 2007. The Altons...who knows. -
