Brick Review Change???

I was at match yesterday. I hate coaches challenge and refs reviews when they take too long. I thought yesterday the refs did good job on confirming calls. The one thing I think should be considered is in dual match offer 2 challenges to coaches. One for first 5 matches. Then another one for coach after intermission.
I also would consider if the challenge is wrong to allow opponent choice on restart. This might prevent coach/ wrestler to use brick when someone is gassed.
Curious what other people think of above.

Biggest losers

A couple big lottery winners expired with no one collecting. One was $44 million, the other was $36 million.

Imagine how you would feel if you found one now after cleaning the house!

PSU ever had a player from Hawaii?

I know there was a Samoan OL a few years back but I am not sure where he was from. I think Vega is from Washington.

PSU just got a CB for a kid from Hawaii. I doubt he is coming here but he is visiting. The On3 site gives points simply for visiting so he got the CB. Also visiting UW and Nebraska.

Match Thread Ohio State dual - Fri, Feb 2

Here we go, getting down to the nitty gritty of the season with the Bucknuts followed by the Schlockeyes a week later. I'm thinking we see a full-strength squad except for Kasak who could be going to Edinbory to get some more matches at 149. Here's how I see it:

Davis maj. McCrone 4-0 His top game + 3 pt takedowns can get hiin a win with two takedowns, a good ride and an escape

Nagao dec. Bouzakis 7-0 -Bouzakis is going to get worked on bottom

Bartlett dec. Mendez 10-0- Beau is at his best when guys attack at a high pace, Mendez comes hard but that plays into Beau's hands

D'Emilio dec. Evans 10-3- If Kasak is here we could be looking at a shutout

Haines maj. Wilcok 14-3- Haines is ramping up, bonuses for the next coupleweeks

Mesenbrink tech, Hepner 19-3- I have a hard time picking a pin here but it could easily happen

SuperStarocci maj Welsh 24-3- I'm changing my initial prediction to a pin, the kid is going into the lions den and CStarr is the guy who is going to perform the baptism by fire

Truax maj. Shumate 28-3 Bernie seems to have picked up and should handke shumate easily

Brooks- I'm leading toward a pin now, he's gonna rough this guy up and Daniel Greg will do the same at 285

Kerk maj. Feldman 36-3

Parking tickets

I've been parking near the bus terminal for going on 10 years. So have a lot of wrestling fans. Never once has anyone ever come back from the match with a parking ticket. Until today that is. Every car in the lot had a $50 ticket courtesy of PSU. A warning would have been nice. There are exactly ZERO no parking signs around. Is anyone else in the same boat today?

Interesting match ups tonight
