I'm predicting 4 time AAthey need another category, especially for this year: Likely to be 3 x All American and serious Natl Champ contender. Then Beau is in!!

I'd take Flo's predictions with a pound of salt as they did not even bother to determine if the wrestlers are actually eligible for consideration for an at large. They included Kemerer and Camacho from Pitt, both of whom were replaced in the line-ups. Also, they have Decatur in -- did he weigh in and forfeit? if not, shold be ineligible.
In the 149s, neither Hunsaker nor Scharenbrock meet the prerequisites. Bartlett and Omania have to stay in top 33 to remain candidates.
Thus, there are really only 9 wrestlers for 6 spots and being an alternate may be critical as (1) Alirez has only wrestled 1 match since January 8 (an extra bout against Utah Valley's sixth string 141 pounder) to keep him eligible for a coaches ranking and (2) Cobb is at Navy, which has shut down all sports activities through at least Wednesday.
My predictions:
Murin
Thomas
Cobb
Alirez
Last two spots Omania (unless losing record is viewed as a veto) and then Crooks/Bartlett/Scott toss-up.
Now that Alirez’s withdraw official, where does that leave Bartlett?
Utah Valley's Hunsaker may also be ahead of Beau -- 31st in coaches poll and pinned 8 seed Abas.Ed Scott is likely ahead of him in line. Bartlett is ahead of him in the CR but Scott holds the W over a NQ.

Thanks, though. I knew he was close, but I figured someone else knew the details.Ah yeah ... we can probably forget about it then.
Actually, we have only another 3.5 hrs.We have another week of possible Covid mischief, I think he still has a 1% chance
That's an awful way of doing it in these days of covid. Where are peoples heads.
I know Tocci is on the NCAA Wrestling Committee, but this confuses me. According to the manual, two alternates should already have been selected, with one being invited to the NCAA Championships in case of a withdrawal or a missed weight.
Feeling bad for the Navy guys (9 qualifiers), sports (except for mens b-ball were shutdown on the 28th through this weekend. No practices and limited move!ent on campus due to Covid, if they are allowed to travel then have to show up at NCAA's and test and then quarantine in their rooms for 24 hours. They will have gone over two weeks since their last practice and might have only 1 prior to Thursday's start.
Prolly still on the exercise bike wearing off all that unspent energy.Now that Alirez’s withdraw official, where does that leave Bartlett?

When was the deadline before this year? IIRC nobody filled in for Suriano when he pulled out at last minute.I know Tocci is on the NCAA Wrestling Committee, but this confuses me.

They’ll be fine. Stand With Pride has been coaching their living-room practices via Zoom.Feeling bad for the Navy guys ... No practices and limited move!ent on campus due to Covid ... They will have gone over two weeks since their last practice and might have only 1 prior to Thursday's start.
NCAA could've plug-and-played without redrawing brackets.You think so? I was thinking with the high probability of newer, later dropouts, it'd be a massive pain in the hiney to redraw brackets every time. Not being argumentative really, just thinking I dont' really blame them for drawing an earlier, hard line after which dropouts just become byes.
all humbly submitted to you, my friend!
Hunsaker got the bid.Utah Valley's Hunsaker may also be ahead of Beau -- 31st in coaches poll and pinned 8 seed Abas.
CuristLoew, I want you to know, that, these are the breaks.Plus why didn’t cael have him getting his extra matches at 149 instead? Once again sry if already posted and answered.
