Yeah Man!!! Join me for a little brewery tour between sessions 1&2? Are your kids coming?
It’s not out of the question. The point I and others have made is Berge currently doesn’t qualify and you are hoping for a ruling from the NCAA in the middle of his soph year. There clearly have been some recent exceptions but there is no guidance to help with the decision. Hence....if he’s healthy, he wrestles.
I agree with you Cowbell. I am not sure that there is such a thing as qualify anymore plus who knows what the rules will be in 2-3 years. I also think that a concussion is fundamentally different than most injuries. Thus, his injury, a comeback, a setback and then another attempt is perfectly consistent with one lingering injury. If for some reason he cannot wrestle anymore this year (I hope he can), I think he has a good argument of a year lost to injury regardless of whether his second match was in February or November.
In the Court of Human Compassion, of course he has a good argument.
In Mark Emmert's NCAA?
Based on the latest amendment proposal, https://web3.ncaa.org/lsdbi/search/proposalView?id=102970 in conjunction with the most recent amendments to the rule, I would say there's a decent chance.
Tabled for 2+ yrs and counting ... when is it next uo for review?
The question really is: how willing is the NCAA to approve a case under a specific tabled rule change -- i.e., approve the rule by the back door?
Seems like the kind of thing to hope for if already pursuing a path, but risky to expect.
Great news guys: There's no way Berge wouldn't get a 6th year because Cael controls the NCAA, that's why he operates at 99 scholarships instead of 9.9. He also controls the FloWrestling media/rankings and the State College Police Department.
Scarlett showing up announced or unannounced?
Frankly my dear.....I don't give a damn.
All good. I think that we're both hoping that after Sunday we won't even be talking about Berge and a Hardship waiver anymore.
I wonder if my wife would prefer announced or unannounced...
No kids this year. I will reach out sometime Thursday morning. Looking forward to it.
Did folks here read the article I posted as OP, and/or watch the Cael interview therein? I know Caelspeak on injuries is not much easier to understand than newspeak: but it does not seem likely at all to me that we’re going to see Brady compete again this season. Hope I’m wrong.
Well he wrestled matches in November and March (3 tournaments). Sounds about normal for a redshirt year. Take that for what it is worth.
Not to put the cart in front of the horse but, If Berge is good to go with zero setbacks and intends to be competing in the post season, wouldn't it be a good idea to send him to the Mat-Town Open II this Sunday at Lock Haven? It could greatly improve his potential seed at NCAAs if he could somehow finish the B1G Tournament with at least 8 matches under his belt.
As someone else said, with the level of competition it is probably better to stay home and wrestle the dual.
The competition really has nothing to do with it as long as they're D1 guys. It's about getting enough matches to qualify for the coaches rank and win%.
But is that going to happen anyway?
IDK the min # matches for either ranking but it's probably not achievable at Mat Town. Can't see him wrestling 5 or 6 matches in one day, for example.
Which means he'd also have to go to National Collegiate Open next weekend to get in matches -- and the first 1 or 2 rounds there might not be D1 opponents.
Really hard to imagine going to Mat Town, NCO, and B10s in consecutive weekends.
If he gets 3 matches at Mat-Town II that should be good enough. He only needs 8 matches through the B1G tournament to qualify for CR, win% and obtain bronze standard.
Yeah, so if he's good to go, it seems like a good idea to send him to Lock Haven. It could mean the difference between a 30 or so seed at NCAAs and a 15 or so seed. Not to mention aquiring bronze standard would make him eligible for a chance at an at-large bid if he didn't obtain an auto-qualifier spot.
If you think I'm letting Scarlett leave here, you really are crazy.
Depends which door you entered?
FWIW this amendment proposal received tremendous support in the council vote getting 61 yes votes to adopt and only 3 no's to defeat 95.3% support. It was tabled to be considered as part of the overall review of seasons of competition legislation. So the likelihood of this being adopted whenever they do that review is very high in my opinion. Here's the link, it's proposal # 2018-41.

With that amendment, if it passes and it seems like it would....another season is likely, provided one wants to stay in school that long.
Yeah if he can compete and wants a 6th year, I would say the odds are in his favor that he'll get it.
So...Berges wrestling career is over? In that case we only want the best for his health and a safe normal life. Perhaps coaching? Maybe not you have to roll around on the mat to coach?
Where'd you see that? It's been announced his season is over--but I haven't seen anything about his career. Either way, health and safety are good initial goals....
Does this mean you're no longer quitting on Rasheed and have moved to quitting on Berge?
