Ahhh...the old "he wasn't really trying".
A great alternative to taking your medicine after talking shit to a HSer.
Yes, at least Kennedy has some offense. Arnold is a 1-TD wrestler ... if that ... against anyone ranked.
BTW, Kennedy recently qualified for U23s. The last we saw Arnold he went down two straight to a HSer at U20s ... with 0 TDs.
I went and re-watched the action prior to Blaze being put on the clock again. I don't get it. Blaze was holding center for nearly all of the 1:11 in mat time that elapsed prior to the call and Vito had two deep sprawls that took him far from center. Based on what I have seen in the past, I think international officials would have either called nothing or put Vito on the clock. Any freestyle officials out there who want to wade in on this?

He'll live. Reliving something that happened four months ago is wasted energy. I wonder if he is still pretty upset at Manning for egging the fans on?Jordan sounding pretty upset about how he feels he was treated at Penn State during the Olympic Trials:

Just heard I take all that with a grain of salt just throwing it out there. As much as I enjoy reading some of the expertise we find on this board I can't help wondering how far Caels thinking is from all of ours lol.
Jordan has had a wonderfully career and done a lot for the wrestling community. But his constant chirping, borderline dirty wrestling, and butt hurt attitude makes it really hard to root for him.
On top of that. If he had glued his socks up and didn't come across as a dead-tired, stalling wuss the fan reaction would not have been so vile.
Quit freaking whining, it reinforces the "wuss" perception.
Hell, JB was such a dick about everything Kyle Dake felt obligated to make a statement that was a jab at JB.
I think that Nico was an outlier in taking a late redshirt. I think that if Levi took one now, it would not help him.
Yep. JB is an ambassador for the sport only when things are going well for him. He is as magnanimous as they come.
When things are not going well, another JB surfaces.
Damn. I’ve seen Nolf do some crazy stuff on the mat, but he just hurt this guys feelings. Can hear Byers yelling it. “Jason shoots off the whistle and it looks like he’s about to….JASON JUST HURT HIS FEELINGS!!! RIGHT IN THE SELF-ESTEEM!!”THAT’S GONNA HURT FOR MONTHS!!Jordan sounding pretty upset about how he feels he was treated at Penn State during the Olympic Trials:

Burroughs is a great wrestler and champion, but he is also such a drama queen weenie.
“The fans at Penn State hurt my feelings! I need to be idolized!” Awww…poor f*cking baby. Get over yourself…it’s only wrestling.
Someone is turning a new leaf.
All the shitposting at Ferrari has been erased as well.

All of JB's points came off push outs. He couldn't take Levi down. Levi is the only opponent JB couldn't takedown in the tournament. If JB can't take Levi down, then it's not looking good for any of Levi's college opponents.
The physical strength Levi displays is mind boggling. He only gave up three takedowns in the entire tournament, one to Carr & two to Wick. Hopefully, Flo posts the Levi vs O'Toole match. That was an exceptional performance by Levi.

Here is a phenomenal display of strength by Levi. How many wrestlers could finish a takedown like this?
Levi shoots, O'Toole sprawls. Levi is flat on his belly with his feet off the mat, but he keeps his hands locked around the leg.
Levi starts driving forward with his legs. O'Toole keeps sprawling.
Levi works to his knees. O'Toole is still sprawling.
Levi sucks in the leg before finishing off the takedown.

Reminder that Facundo beat Levi (with TDs) a few months ago at the oly trials. Among Levi, Mitchell and Alex, only Levi can shirt this season.
Reminder that Beau has a RS as well. So does Lilledahl as a true FR. Come to think of it, AB has a RS last year as well.
Plus, are you seriously positing that Facundo will be standing in Levi's way when he takes the mat this year?
While true, Levi seems a different guy at 79kg than he was at 74kg. 157 must have been a very hard cut. Harder than I realized. Just imagine what Levi will be like in 6 months after living and wrestling at 174 for a season. I hope he doesn't RS. I love the new and improved Levi.
I liked your post simply for the use of the word "positing" at 6am.
Again, Willie and others (was it iron head?) said Levi is shirting this season.
And I don’t think it’s out of the realm of possibility that Facundo is beating him. In fact, we saw it happen a few months ago.
Would it be preposterous for a person to beat another 6-0 in free then be better in folk 7 months later?
possible yes.. but that freestyle win doesn't mean a whole lot IMO.. Facundo is a more polished freestyle wrestler.. Levi has shown far more superiority at folk...
I think all of us would be on board with this possibility, if not the likelihood, if it weren't for the somewhat shocking revilation that Alex certified where he did, and seems to look pretty skinny, after seeing him bulked up not that long ago.
It seemed at one time that 174 was the plan, and Alex was looking big.
Then....? Something must have changed last spring or early summer. It could be that Levi simply said he doesn't want to shirt, but if he is willing, why would Alex have to drop 2 weight classes? Does that mean that Zach Ryder also refused to shirt and can beat Alex? If so then what happens next year? Levi goes and Zach shirts then? My head hurts.
I am jazzed for Levi, especially after his performance this weekend, especially the O'Toole match. One can't help but feel badly for Alex for sure, even if he goes 157, this can't be the funnest of developments for him.
Kinda funny. New and improved NCAA champion
Although Facundo has shown potential with freestyle, I haven't seen (yet) where he is at the same level with folkstyle as Haines.
And to be clear, few wrestlers have shown the ability to wrestle folkstyle at the same level as Haines.

Let me just say... I hate you all for the "problems" you have.
Just to kinda put this all in perspective - the coaches WANTED Levi to shirt and Alex to have the spot at 174. But Levi doesn't want to shirt. Wants to do his 4 and then move on.
Levi is and always will be the better folkstyler. His performance at OTT was just more of him being tired from a long season.

Our problems just keep getting worse too! Woe is us! Our problems are even worse than that one time fans, coaches, and wrestlers were mean to Jordan Burroughs.
