Ok guys, go head.

You could go Stieber at 133, Dake at 141. Though that wasn’t Dake’s (or Stieber’s) best year.

125 you could have arguments for McDonough and Delgado. Both had two titles but missed an AA year. McDonough went 1-2-1-DNP, so that’s a judgement call against 2-3-2-1. I would probably go McDonough, as much as I love Nico, but it’s a judgement call.

The rest I’m on board with, Ringer does have an argument but I’ll take the two Hodge’s.

Also, how do you value the guys on the edges? How does Spencer and Yianni’s 2 for 2 stack up against 4 years but less or equal championships.

 

[caliPSUfan]

Focusing on what guys did at that specific weight during the decade makes it understandable to keep Dake off...unfortunately with that rule, I have to leave Ruth off too. My list will be less popular because of that alone, but I have to have some specific guideline if I’m making a list like this...


125 - Spencer (2 seasons) - 1st / 1st (plus lots of bonus)

133 - Steiber (2 seasons) - 1st / 1st

141 - Yianni (2 seasons) - 1st / 1st (Russell, and Steiber were both 2 time champs at this weight too, but Stieber already made the list and I’ll go Yianni over Russell)

149 - Zain (3 seasons) - 1st / 1st / 1st (lots of bonus plus 2 Hodge trophies)

157 - Nolf (4 seasons) - 2nd / 1st / 1st / 1st (lots of bonus)

165 - Taylor (3 seasons) - 1st / 2nd / 1st (lots of bonus plus 2 Hodge Trophies)

174 - Zahid (3 seasons) - 3rd / 1st / 1st

184 - Bo (2 seasons) - 1st / 1st

197 - Cox (4 seasons) - 1st / 5th / 1st / 1st

285 - Snyder (3 seasons) - 1st / 1st / 1st

285 - Snyder (3 seasons) - 1st / 1st / 1st

Yeah. It’s a hard list to make and it’s a mix of body of work and how you want to add in (or not) performances at different weights. Zahid is definitely the better career at 174, but Ed still has the body of work (slightly) and depending on how you want to play with it you can slide him in there.

The best way to make a logical statistical list would be the individual season. I.E. 149 - 2017 Zain. 157 - 2019 Nolf and so on.

Spencer lee all day at 125

Your probably putting weight on the 4 finishes in the decade for nico. Which I get, but spencer may go down as the best 125 EVER.

285 - Snyder (3 seasons) - 1st / 1st / 1st

This lineup except I'm putting Ed in at 174.

If we narrow results to only at that weight, then Gabe Dean should be the 184. Yes, he lost to Bo -- thus finished 3-1-1-2 at the weight. I'm taking Bo, and likewise taking Ed.

 

[funkisfun12]

All decade team (Month of June only):
125 Spencer, yup
133 Desanto, beat the guy up there^^^^
141 Brody Grothus, just make weight bro
149 Lugo, room bump
157 Kem Dog, hell, Young Guns
165 The Bull, eventually will finish better than 5th
174 EVANS!, whether he's impressed or not
184 $$$$
197 Warnerov, beat Beard a few years ago
285 Sam "the bullet catcher" Stoll. Only injuries stopped him from being a 3 timer.

I thought about Dean because of the body of work, but I leaned Bo via the h2h and 100% winning percentage at the weight. I struggle keeping Ed off the list though...

Im sure he will, but I wasnt even considering active guys.

Completely forgot Steiber had 2 yrs at 33

 

[Gray52]

Anyone who puts Zahid ahead of Ruth is...
1. Not paying attention.
Or
2. Trippin

 

[caliPSUfan]

not really...at 174

Zahid is 3/1/1 while Ruth is 3/1

 

[Gray52]

Zahid is 3/1/1 while Ruth is 3/1

Ah.. I now see what you mean. I guess in that case, yes... he is. If we’re looking strictly at objective results at a single weight, that’s pretty easy for someone to look those up and post. End of thread. But looking at this without qualifiers, I think Ed is an easy choice.

 

[nitlion6]

Assuming I can use wherever I want them as long as they competed there at some point

125 Spencer
133 Lougie Bear
141 Dake
149 Zain
157 Jason
165 DT
174 Ed
184 Bo
197 Cox
Hwt Snyder

That is quite a line up

 

[RoarLions1]

I'll assume the decade is 2010-2019. Splitting hairs, the current decade ends in 2020. That aside, for the past 10 years, here's the 15 highest point-getters at the NCAA Tournament over that span;

Logan Stieber 104.5 - 133 (2), 141 (2)
David Taylor 101 - 157, 165 (3)
Jason Nolf 98 - 157 (4)
Edward Ruth 96.5 - 174 (2), 184 (2)
Kyle Dake 96 - 141, 149, 157, 165
Bo Nickal 95.5 - 174, 184 (2), 197
Alex Dieringer 94 - 157 (2), 165 (2)
Zain Retherford 93.5 - 141, 149 (3)
Kyle Snyder 89 - 197, 285 (3)
Jordan Oliver 86.5 - 133 (3), 149
Isaiah Martinez 82.5 - 157 (2), 165 (2)
JDen Cox 80 - 197 (4)
Nathan Tomasello 77.5 - 125 (2), 133, 125
Gabriel Dean 77.5 - 184 (4)
Anthony Nelson 75.5 - 285 (4)

Pick your weight classes if you like, as said, these are the guys that scored the most at the big dance, 2010-2019.

EDIT: Added weights above, with the following interesting facts among the top-15;
-- Four guys stayed at the same weight; Nolf, Cox, Dean, and Nelson.
-- One guys was at four different weights; Dake
-- One guy was at three weights; Nickal
-- Only one guy went DOWN a weight; Tomasello (from 133 to 125)
-- Only one guy went up 2 weights in consecutive years; Jordan (133 to 149)
-- The four-time champs are #1 and #5 on the list
-- 125 and 174 are the weights that show up the least amount
-- 157 shows up the most

 

[lions#1]

These guys won the most titles during the decade and need to be on the list (no particular order)

Stieber
Dake
Cox
Dieringer
Snyder
ED
ZAIN
JASON
BO

10. Taylor - 2 time Hodge winner and four time finalist separates him from the other 2 time NCAA champions

 

[Cali_Nittany]

Dake, DT, IMar, Dringer, Nolf, Cenzo. That's a lot of hardware just at 157 and 165. Nolf at 157 and DT at 165 with Martinez and Dieringer on the 2nd team. Then there's Joseph's 1-1-2. He cant even make the 2nd team right now. Loaded in the middle. Have to stash Dake down at 141 with Zain at 149.

 

[regularfan]

This thread got me thinking about who would be on Penn State's All-Decade team (NCAA Championship years 2010-19): Below is what I came up with

Some stats I found looking into this
Qualifiers: 86 out of possible 100 - every year at 149, 165 (141 is least with 7)
All-Americans: 58 (most is 9 at 174, least is 141 with 3)
National Champions: 23, 5 at 184, 4 at 149/165, none at 133, 141

By weight (hopefully my math is correct)
125: 8 Qualifiers, 5 All-Americans, 1 National Champion
133: 9 Q, 4 AA, 0 NC
141: 7 Q, 3 AA, 0 NC
149: 10 Q, 7 AA, 4 NC
157: 9 Q, 7 AA, 3 NC
165: 8 Q, 7 AA, 4 NC
174: 10 Q, 9 AA, 3 NC
184: 8 Q, 6 AA, 5 NC
197: 8 Q, 6 AA, 2 NC
285: 9 Q, 4 AA, 1 NC

PSU All-Decade Team (in my opinion)
125: Nico Megaludis; 2nd, 2nd, 3rd, 1st
133: Jordan Conaway; R12, DNQ, 8th (125), 6th
141: Nick Lee; 5th, 5th
149: Zain Retherford 5th (141), 1st, 1st, 1st
157: Jason Nolf 2nd, 1st, 1st, 1st
165: David Taylor; 2nd (157), 1st, 2nd, 1st
174: Mark Hall; 1st, 2nd, 2nd
184: Ed Ruth; 3rd (174), 1st (174), 1st, 1st
197: Bo Nickal; 2nd (174), 1st (184), 1st (184), 1st
285: Anthony Cassar: DNQ, 1st

Honorable mentions
133: Andrew Long (3rd in 2011) - highest placer at weight this decade
149: Frank Molinaro; 8th ('09), 5th, 3rd, 1st
165: Vincenzo Joseph 1st, 1st, 2nd - if he were to win at 165 this year the NCAA placements would put Joseph ahead of Taylor. Not saying he is better but was just interesting to me
174: Matt Brown; 2nd, 5th, 1st
184/197: Quentin Wright; 1st, 2nd, 1st (197)
285: Nick Nevills DNQ, 5th, 7th, DNQ

Cali's post got me thinking about who will crash this party next year, and the year after. First, several guys will roll off of my list, as the "last 10 year" rule heads into the future. Gone will be Dake and Oliver after this season is over, and Taylor, Ruth, and Nelson the year after. Zahid (67.5), Cenzo (62), and Hall (60) could all be top-15 in a year, and Spencer Lee (51.5) in two years. Spencer has a shot at the top spot, needing 52.5 points in the next two years to surpass Stieber.
