Meyer pin

[Plasmodium 2,304]

Anybody have a video of this coach fight?

[hammerlockthree 2,637]

you watch the replay you can clearly see the entire midline of brunsons back is exposed and off the mat, i don't know how he could have had two shoulders blades down.

 

The "he deserved it" and "he would have lost anyway" arguments are insanely stupid.

How about don't put yourself in the situation when you are wrestling at Carver.  Nothing wrong with a little home cooking.

So you are saying it's ok for the refs in carver to screw the visiting team?

[WildTurkey44 321]

It was a pin.

[hammerlockthree 2,637]

Anyone saying it was please produce a screen shot. 

[Cooch1 147]

Perhaps the ref slapped the mat figuring he may have missed it a few seconds earlier when he was out of position, and feeling a bit guilty with all the homer fans screaming, he was trying to make up for what he felt may have been a mistake on his part.

Welp.

[Flying-Tiger 617]

Did the ref award any points? I was under the assumption he did but I have read from several people that there was no takedown or backs. If not, then I guess it did impact the result. Still have no sympathy for the Illinois wrestler with the way he wrestled that last period but I can understand people wanting the ref to get it correct. 

[Cooch1 147]

Need more than a single frame, like about 24 to equal fall control. Reminds me of Churella/Hendrix

[hammerlockthree 2,637]

Welp.

man he does look pinned from there...to bad i've seen the reverse angle. 

[BigRedMachine 210]

For those who know the rules better than I do: does it need to be both scapula touching, or simply both halves of the upper back with the bottom of the scapula being the criteria for determining where the upper back begins? If the former, that's definitely a fall.

In either picture, where do you see both shoulders or scapulae touching to even bring this up? In the upper- which is closer to a fall- the right singlet strap isn't even touching.You can see the center part of the singlet and the exposed center of his back.

I'm not sure you understood my question. I'm asking for the official definition of a fall according to the NCAA rule book and what role the scapulae play in the matter (i.e. are they required to be touching for a fall to occur or does it simply have to be both sides of the upper back and the scapulae simply define where the upper begins). The second picture is after the fall was called and the red line I drew shows exactly what part of the right side of his back was touching.

Are you saying the fall was called based on the first picture? That's what I was referring to, not the second.

 

Any part of both shoulders or part of both scapulae- I suspect proper grammar should say each rather than both.

 

As to the first picture, I don't see the ref looking like he's about to slap the mat, in fact it might look like he just got down, and there were a few seconds between the two shots (Look at some of the people on the bench) so he might have rocked up to get the fall and then back after. Joe T was in perfect position to see it.

Yes, the second picture is only there to put into perspective which part of his back this was that was touching the mat.

Given this criteria, I would say technically not a fall. Very close though.

The position he's in in the first picture is as far as he gets to his right side being flat. He stays in this position a good period of time, but does not go any further towards his right side. Feel free to review the video on the first page.

 

Here's a pic as the fall is being called:

Didn't look like a fall to me at all once you watch the replay with the appropriate camera angle.  Also I'm a little confused; I didn't watch the match, the scoreboard says 5-3 Brunson on the broadcast, but someone here was saying that Meyer was winning the match.  Can I get some clarification?

Give Meyer 2 for the takedown and 2 NF points and the score would be 7-5 w/o the pin.

In this photo, he is flat.

Thanks there Big Red.

[Medicine_Man 877]

definitely not pinned, bad call, Vak is wrong for the first time in recent memory.

[hammerlockthree 2,637]

he even tried to cover up with an apocryphal photo...

[rstrong 75]

Yep - definitely not a pin. I can upload the video to youtube if there's sufficient interest. But at this point, it kind of seems moot. It was not a pin.

 

EDIT: Not a pinfall!

Do you have video from that angle?

 

Edit: I found it.
