Yes you may or may not be an adult but you are surely talking. You have given zero examples of your ridiculous theory. Region 1 IS way better than your region. Period. You are making silly statements now. Region 1 has done very good, there is no denying that. However the rules are the rules and eac...

Webster's definition of "Entitled" : believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment. How does winning at least 14 more matches than your region show special treatment. Are you saying that referees are giving region 1 athletes special treatment?? Keep looki...

After the season that Ty Watters is having as a true freshman, I have a hard time seeing Rune taking a redshirt next year. Flynn is known for putting the best team possible on the mat, and I think he will be the best guy at 197. I can see Hoke needing a redshirt season. I think Robin will be at 184 ...

What are some examples that support your claim?? The examples that support my claims is as follows: The most competitive matches in the Regional Tournament should be the Consolation Semifinals, because it is either do or die. If you win you qualify for the state tournament and if you lose you get t...

I am sure there are plenty of examples that dispute my opinion, I will not argue that, but there are plenty of examples that support it. The point was that it is not a viable option to revise the qualification process for the entire state, just to benefit one or two people fighting for a 5th place ...

I am confused by all this. Everyone should be rejoicing that Region 1 is so good. The conversation should be centered around on how to make Regions 2,3,&4 better. Bringing the bottom up toward the top is far better than pushing the top back down toward the bottom. Altering the qualification proc...

I stand corrected, good find, thanks for sharing.

Shawn Taylor hasn’t wrestled all year. I was really looking forward to watching him wrestle at the Iron Man but unfortunately he didn’t wrestle. I would assume that the plan is have Shawn wrestle 165 after Peyton is done. Brody Conley needs to stay right where he is and Hoke Hogan might take a redsh...

Let's take a crack at AAA, these predictions are based on little knowledge of the wrestlers and just a few tournament results: 106 P. Martin (Unv.) vs D. Owens (Sp. Mills) 113 C. Smith (South) vs G. Johnson (W.W.) 120 L. Garcia (B.U.) vs K. Plinski (Wash) 126 B. McComas (G.W.) vs S. Myers (PHS) 132 ...

After a little thought and reflection on my post, there is a clear distinction between Jett Strickenberger and Gavin Quiocho. Jett was at a Junior College and was either out of eligibility or he was in the transfer portal, probably both of these two things are true, which means he is available for o...

Why isn't Domique Way in the bracket? After the year he was having, I can't imagine why he isn't wrestling.

One can only assume that if they recruited a Junior College national champion out of Northwest Kansas that they at least reached out to a Division 2 national champion who is less than 100 miles away. I can neither confirm nor deny this to be true, but I have heard Gavin is happy and completely satis...

Do any other D1 conferences in wrestling hold conference tournaments at a neutral site? Not that I am aware of, even the SoCon and the MAC have revolving conference tournaments. Ohio University was the host of the MAC tournament last year, and if a little town like Athens, Ohio, can pull off hostin...

Why wouldn’t that be a reason? When I was in college there is no way possible my parents could’ve flown to Tulsa, OK and they certainly didn’t have a vehicle capable of making the trip. Feasibly it wasn’t possible for them but they could’ve drove to Blacksburg or to Pittsburg, making the trip to NC ...

This is a good point. Although I believe Morgantown could handle hosting an event like this, I do not think it would be the most accommodating and fan friendly experience. However, I wonder about schools like South Dakota State, North Dakota State, Norhtern Iowa, and possibly even Norhtern Colorado ...

Logistically, it makes no sense for WVU to host the Big 12. Operating costs are becoming a higher focus in everything and that is now including wrestling. What operating costs would they have that wouldn't be covered by the Big 12 Athletic Conference. The ticket sales would be more than enough to c...

This is the biggest problem with the BIG 12 conference, they have tended to hold their conference tournament at a neutral site since they started expanding. Since 2016 it has been held in either Kansas City, MO or Tulsa, Oklahoma. It is hard for me to see this changing especially with some of the PA...

Perhaps some perspective from both sides is what this conversation needs. First can everyone please quit referring to these young men as "kids" or "children". If you want a young man to grow up and act like a man then he needs to be treated as such, and referring to a young man t...

Can’t tell if you’re being serious or not? His name is Dominic Way. Not two different people. I see what you did there (wink/wink), they are using Nick as a secret ace in the hole. They are going to keep Dom in the lineup for the rest of this year, and then next year they are going to slide Nick in...

Has any wvu wrestler knocked off a #1 ranked wrestler at the coliseum? I can’t remember one but I’m not that detailed of a fan. I’ve attended about 80% of the meets since the late 70’s, just not that detailed. Could have happened, please help! That is a good question....I have a feeling the answer ...

I'm confused by this whole topic, so let me get this straight. These two fellows used to wrestle for Ripley, and obviously did not look good in the Viking Blue. So, the coach from Parkersburg High School offered them each a "Big Red" shirt to wear in hopes that they would come to wrestle f...

On the home page for the WSAZ brackets, in the upper right-hand corner there is a tab that says Team Scores.

Isn't that how they do it for the State Dual Tournament? No, there is no seeding for the state tournament. It is based on a random pill draw and order of placement within the regions. A new thing in place is not really seeding, but is an attempt to keep the 2 clear cut best wrestlers in a weight cl...

I predict that there will be a lot of competitive matches that WVU comes up on the short end of. The team scores in the Mizzou match and the Iowa State match will, more than likely, be lop sided but the individual matches will be more competitive than in the past. If this team is at full strength th...

Isn't that how they do it for the State Dual Tournament?

The next two weekends are going to be a big test for the Mountaineers. This Friday they host Missouri and next weekend it is off to Iowa for matches against Iowa State and Northern Iowa. Every guy in the lineup is going to face a minimum of one opponent ranked in the Top 10 and nearly half of them w...

Not having Jett in the lineup at 125 is a big disadvantage. Picking up the first match win is big and sets the tone for the rest of the dual. Jordan definitely got the short end of the stick of a bad call, but who would have thought that he would not have scored at least one takedown. The next time ...
