What if: 2020 NCAA Championships Brackets (based on Dual Impact Index) #d1wrestle Special thanks to @CauliFriend wrestlingbypirate.wordpress.com/2020/03/31/wha…

We've got our analysis up for the 2020 Hodge Finalists. Maybe you know how you'd vote, but have you considered: Is 8 a lot of Hodge Trophy Finalists ? Is the Hodge Trophy Way Better than the Heisman Trophy? @ncaawrestling @WINWrestlingMag 3dwrestlerstats.com/blog/hodge/202…

@BaybeeMarky_PSU (Penn State) wins 2020 Abacus Award! #d1wrestle wrestlingbypirate.wordpress.com/2020/03/24/mar…

Need to deep dive on some stats prior to Voting ? Already know who your voting for, but want to see how great your guy truly is? We've got you covered (@ncaawrestling): 3dwrestlerstats.com/wrestling-stat…

After a great @VNcaas, a sneak peak at 3DWS Ratings for @WINWrestlingMag Hodge Finalists. More details to follow 1 Note: prior to cancellation of @ncaawrestling @MarchMATness_ we didn't take a look at Shane Griffith, thinking a Frosh would be tough to consider ...

@TeamKuzinski @VNcaas @MizzouWrestling Well, I guess that works too. Just don't screw anyone out of the Virtual Gorrarian Award!

@CauliFriend @VNcaas @MizzouWrestling I'll just change a fall to a MD.

Bout 507, 149 Semifinals Mauller (Missouri) dec Lugo (Iowa) SV2 4-2 @MizzouWrestling Mauller keeps it close all match and then strikes for a takedown in double OT. Iowa is deducted a team point for arguing a non stalling call on the edge in the first sudden victory

@TeamKuzinski @VNcaas @MizzouWrestling Yeah, I should have added that feature. Or maybe the virtual coaches should behave themselves! Unhide the "Match Results" sheet, and manually change the 'Total Points' from that match to one less than the calculated amount. Now... no more shenanigans @VNcaas !!

@VNcaas @MizzouWrestling I don't know how to deduct team points on my spreadsheet! @CauliFriend

@WrestlingQuoter Today I learned what BDI meant...

I’ll feed em to ya, gents... pooled weights Bout 001 285: Tommy Baranoski BLOODROUND (Bloodround RTC) vs Earl Mark Cody SMITH (The Open Mat) Bout 002 195: Big Dick IMMEL (TrackWrestling) vs Mr. Ryan HOLMES (FloWrestling) I can go on.

Enoughs enough... @jasonmbryant @bryanhazard let’s start the announcements for #WrestlingMediaDuals #WillieVsRhino

@wrestlingbypir8 @VNcaas @LeeSpencerlee36 I was just really upset about losing the potential of another 4-timer. Maybe it was overreaching to make him the first 5-timer?

@CauliFriend @VNcaas Man, @LeeSpencerlee36 is a REALLY great wrestler, if he's picked to win the NCAA title at 125, 174, and 184!

If you don't like @VNcaas 's tournament simulation/picks, and want to design your own 2020 NCAA tournament, feel free to use this doc to fill out brackets and calculate team scores.

@CradleCity2018 @VNcaas Lol thanks for letting me know. I need to slow down when tweeting...

In the spirit of @VNcaas tournament simulation, here are my completely biased and inaccurate predictions for each Weight Class Podium and Team Scores:

@Richard_Immel Exciting bracket! I really like the Region idea!

Let's have some fun. Round-of-64 voting for the best college wrestler will be open until 6 p.m. (ET). Vote in the thread below ⬇️
