@MrPatMineo The more I watch this, the worse it gets. The reaction time crowd for this one should go back and count seconds. In one video, Robideau is on his hip in the cradle from the :05-:08 mark (of the video) without coming off it. How much reaction time are you people arguing for?

Dang.

@WCMLPodcast Davino was definitely the right guy to win in that match and I would have been fine with them calling it, but there are plenty of similar situations where that’s not a takedown. It’s not unusual on a single for guys to touch the far ankle but not be able to control it & be no TD

Everyone is talking about the Duke match and rightfully so but how about Davino having two feet locked up in OT and the refs NOT calling a TD

Worst hose job since Ian Miller

@CPyles8 @ShaneSparksBTN @Andy_Hamilton This is some of your best work 😂

When you accidentally call it a wrestling mat.

@johnnidijulius Funnily enough, the old hand rear-standing hand touch takedown, while it negated legit granby situations, would have been appropriate here as it’s clear Welch wasn’t working out of it.

Do you guys think this is this just an edge case where reaction time works majority of the time but when it goes bad, it’s BAD…or is this a perverse outcome to the rule where reaction time intended to improve the sport, created new problems we didn’t realize we’d have?

Marcus Blaze had to pay the Cael Tax at some point. Now he got it out of the way and doesn’t have to lose at NCAAs 😎

@EricOlanowski No, I’m literally talking about right before this restart. Block was on his knees out of bounds from :25 to :15 left in the 3rd with no attempt to engage or circle in.

@Coach_Shrubbery Not remotely close to what actually happened. What you’re talking about was earlier in the match when he thought he had a takedown and was pleading to Brands to throw the brick.

Same scenario. Same ref. Same teams. Should be same call, right?!?! 🙂‍↔️ 👎

Death. Taxes. And @ShaneSparksBTN bringing up Sammy Brooks mullet at Big Tens 😂

@MatScouts1 @adamtirapelle is this the kind of situation you were talking about the other day? Lol

Sometimes I get randomly sad that @drmccutcheon_dc never All-American-ed

@adamtirapelle I like the idea here in theory but can you share some examples of the type of specific situations you have in mind?

I can think of at least 10 situations in folkstyle that if we started calling "control" instead of "stalemate" or "potentially dangerous," we'd have more scoring and you would reward offense, thus seeing more offensive attacks. Right now, it's an all-or-nothing game. If you don't gain 100% control beyond any shadow of a doubt, you score zero. If we started liberalizing what control is and awarding points easier and forcing the defensive guy to show that he's not in control vs. the offensive guy to demonstrate he's completely in control, we would see more activity. It would be a big change for folkstyle wrestling. And I think a lot of people would hate it initially. Just like we all hated the freestyle rules as they changed. But as we got used to new definitions, it would make for a better product

When I coached high school wrestling, every standout football player that made the local media would be listed in an article at like 212 pounds, then come in that same night to our match and weigh in for 195 with room to spare

The Jags had a day yesterday at Falcon. This is not the most experienced team I’ve coached but these guys/gals absolutely got after it yesterday to bring home the 3rd place team trophy.

@CPyles8 @FloWrestling Thanks for the follow up. I’ll take a look!

@Coach_Shrubbery @FloWrestling Totatlly get it. I know this is coming very soon to the app where you can get alerts by team so you dont have to select individuals. For now, you can actually add them by team if you use web.

@FloWrestling it would be nice if your app would let me scroll past the first few weights

This reminds me so much of PSU wrestling. Cael Sanderson took Iowa State to 3rd at NCAAs while PSU wasn’t top 10, but he saw the potential for PSU to be elite and within 2 years PSU started winning national titles ever year.

@LandonTengwall So predictable it’s pathetic
